Trump: we have no inflation Inflation has risen every month he’s been in office Trump: Prices are going down Prices are going up for everything Trump: The economy is booming For oligarchs only. Small businesses are hurting. Layoffs piling up Trump can’t lie his way out of his mess this time.

$40B of your money to this guy, so he can dance at CPAC at Mar-a-Lago while Americans wait for their paychecks, hoping the money actually comes.

If Senile Satan gets his way, this is what the Washington Commanders stadium will look like.

Chris Coons: "He's not listening to concerns about lowering costs. Instead he's worried about decorating his new Marie Antoinette ballroom or engaging in trying to figure out how to get his name on more statues and stadiums, or he's sitting across the table in the Oval Office with authoritarians."

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance. The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income. They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive. Wanna fix fraud and abuse? Fix that.

With all these extrajudicial boat murders, we have a president who is not only an adjudicated rapist, but also an unapprehended serial killer.

ATTN: if you’re on the sandwich guy jury, my Signal is in my bio. I’d love to talk after the trial. I’ll keep you anonymous. Please share widely.

Kash Patel in 2023: “I’m just saying Chris Wray doesn’t need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.”

The average US taxpayer spends $36 a year on SNAP You know what they spend on corporate subsidies? $670 Poor and disabled people who need food are not the problem If you’re angry about “your money” feeding people but not angry it’s giving tax cuts to the wealthy? You’re doing their dirty work.

The fact that the president is focused on remodeling the White House while Stephen Miller commands his security forces makes me think the proper analogy isn't so much Caligula as it is Tiberius and Sejanus.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

WTF. Everyone, cameras out. Get it all on video.

15 million Americans are going to lose their health care.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs. Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker. Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps. Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

This is spot on! 👇🏻

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving: $100 billion Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%: $100 billion One is decried as "welfare." One is not. Why?

This is relevant again today. The directive just went out. Keep in mind, it’s illegal for the president to use the military as police without invoking the insurrection act.

When I explain that boycotting an election over an issue has never once forced a politician to embrace that issue, I'm not "scolding people to vote." I'm explaining reality. Feel free to sit on your ass! Just don't pretend that your lazy apathy is somehow going to advance your agenda.

Neguse: "Does anyone here not believe that with one phone call from Speaker Johnson -- one phone call to the president or the secretary of ag -- that those funds would be released tomorrow? And that families wouldn't go starving by the weekend?"

Jim Himes: "Where does this stop? Do we now start executing drug dealers on the corner of Brooklyn? Where does it stop if all of a sudden the government, without, telling anybody anything, can take this kind of lethal action just because they've decided they've got the right to."

RIGHT NOW, THE GHOST OF JEFFREY EPSTEIN IS EXERTING MORE LEADERSHIP THAN THE ENTIRE #GOP CONGRESS. And guess what? He realllllly doesn’t mind making children suffer. Call your 🔴 Rep/Sen’s. Or email or send a postcard. Ask why they are starving children to protect a child rapist: 202-224-3121

Lisa Murkowski You’re starving kids to protect a child rapist Bill Cassidy You’re starving kids to protect a child rapist Susan Collins You’re starving kids to protect a child rapist John Thune You’re starving kids to protect a child rapist -Thom Tillis -Joni Ernst -Shelley Moore Capito #GOP

The U.S. is experiencing its highest wave of layoffs since 2020, with close to a million workers losing their jobs this year.

"To any governors or state legislators out there... if you are in a position where you have the power to redraw your maps... if you have the ability to meet this moment with the urgency that it deserves, I'm calling on you to do exactly what we're doing in California and to fight fire with fire."

uh-oh. turns out the mortgage document that the DOJ is alleging was fraudulent b/c great niece paid some rent (great niece testified she didn't) refers to "short-term rentals," which seems to blow DOJ theory that it could't be rented out of the water. Another disaster of a case.

People who didn't vote for Kamala Harris put us in the most dangerous, inconceivable, shocking, unprecedented, unimaginable bad situations and it's unforgivable. With what he's doing with all of our agencies and literally every other area of our country we were never supposed to be here.

TACO is NOT building a ballroom. He is building a bunker. Booze Allen is not an architecture firm. It’s a defense contractor.

He’s gonna be gone. Next week or 2030…he’s gonna be gone. All the revisionist history in world won’t change the complete moral collapse that is his current followers. Remember who did what in the run up…when it was easy to hide from it. Not when the exit strategy was already being executed.

Congressional candidate @katmabu.bsky.social, who was indicted today for protesting outside the Broadview ICE facility: "We've been punched, dragged, thrown, shot with pepper balls, tear gassed, rubber bullets from snipers on roofs going into local businesses windows."

I think this is going to be worse than the depression. Instead of having a president trying to get us out of it we’ll have someone actively trying to make it worse all while lying and calling it a golden age

i want someone to ask mike johnson "should we be worried that you are always learning the news at your own press conferences, which is exactly when you are supposed to be answering questions about the news"

A people who would allow a president to ignore all proper procedures, rules, norms, and laws and unilaterally demolish a third of the people’s house and build a palace on the grounds of the people’s house is a people who deserve to live under tyranny.

Lawrence O'Donnell Lays Out The Facts ! Chump and RepubliKKKans Are Starving Children.......

Ireland pays artists a living wage. The United States impregnates its children and lets them starve. — First world country my ass.

I found it easier to understand Speake Mike Johnson once I realized he's not just a "flawed Christian." He is the new Roy Cohn, another duplicitous closet case always eager to advance the agendas of genuinely awful people.

"No new wars" to whatever this is.

“This has NOTHING to do with the SHUTDOWN. The law REQUIRES and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a DECISION the president is making on his own to ALLOW people to go HUNGRY." - Senator Peter Welch on SNAP Cuts

Cool we can fund SNAP, pay air traffic controllers, ACA subsidies, all kinds of stuff. Right when we really need it. When do we get the cash?

This was just posted by a CBS News producer on their Instagram stories.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

Too many Americans either didn’t care or didn’t believe. Hopefully they do now.👇

A long-deranged and deeply depraved man with a pronouncedly and acceleratingly deteriorating mind announces that he intends to play with the large arsenal of nuclear weapons he controls. But it's okay, because he's not seeking a third term.

🚨Wow - this will be huge if it bears out. Exit polls show the pro-EU D66 party has WON the Dutch election. The far-right PVV party of Geeet Wildsrs has lost 12 seats, according to exit polls. Huge if true.

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.
