President Trump hasn’t yet lifted a finger to address sky-high housing costs except to hit “post” on Truth Social. He could start by telling House Republicans to stop blocking a bipartisan bill to build more housing and bring down costs.

I don't think I will be on Threads too much longer. Hopefully I can find my "peeps" here.

🚨BREAKING: Lawmakers from both parties and former U.S. monetary officials are sounding the alarm after Fed. Chair Jerome Powell announced Sunday evening that President Donald Trump was attempting to pressure the central bank into cutting interest rates through the threat of criminal prosecution.

Rest in peace.

“No one is free of the wrath of Donald Trump if he decides that he's going for your country.” Former Advisor to Hugo Chavez and Immigration Attorney @evagolinger.bsky.social discusses the complete lawlessness of the Trump regime and how no country is safe. zeteo.com/p/eva-goling...

NEWS: There are now Republican Senators openly calling for an investigation into Trump's DOJ. Even conservative Republicans in the Senate are upset about the Jerome Powell investigation. It really does seem like the tide is turning. youtu.be/2TElHH5WpNI

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum urged Google to reconsider its decision to rename the Gulf of Mexico the 'Gulf of America' for US users, adding the country could file a civil suit against the firm if necessary reut.rs/4hR5Bnu

If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.

Spread the word

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive): 1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment* 2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything 3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can 4. Citizens march en mass

Very on-brand.

I agree. Let the Red states fend for themselves.

This man is an idiot. Just as no one told the Emperor he had no clothes, no one has apparently told Trump COMPANIES DON'T PAY TARIFFS, AMERICAN CONSUMERS DO!

Amen

Buried toward the end of the press release was another eye-opening detail. Pete Hegseth allegedly said, “women should not vote or work and that Christians needed to have more children so they could overtake the Muslim population.” UM.

A protest movement has erupted across Reddit, where dozens of subreddits banned X links to protest Elon Musk.

Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's philanthropy and other US funders said they will cover US financial obligations to the UN climate framework after Donald Trump called for the US to withdraw - for a second time - from the Paris climate agreement reut.rs/3E2AGGu

Tech used to be hopeful & creative, now it is dystopian and dark. It bums me out what people like Musk, Zuck, Hohn, Andreessen and Thiel, have done to this industry. Gross.

When the edible kicks in.

Powering the world with clean energy is common sense. It will secure the future for our grandchildren. The clean energy transformation is - and remains - unstoppable www.globalcitizen.org/en/content/t...

Here's how they report on him in the UK, where their free press has a spine.

Something to think about with the Ross Ulbricht pardon. The feds are still sitting on $6.5 billion in bitcoin seized from silk road. If Trump gives it back to Ulbricht, he could easily pay back Trump by trading it for Trump coin. A potential bribe of millions or billions of dollars for a pardon.

Immigrants are taking all the best jobs.

Greenland is not for sale. And in other words….👇

Garth Hudson, the Band’s virtuoso keyboardist and all-around musician who drew from a unique palette of sounds and styles to add a conversational touch to such rock standards as “Up on Cripple Creek,” “The Weight” and “Rag Mama Rag,” has died at age 87.

I am saddened to learn of Garth's passing. He was a major influence on me as a musician and I got to play accordion with him once. RIP to one of the great musicians of my time, and the last surviving original member of The Band. <3

How Will Trump's Executive Orders Change Government? open.substack.com/pub/donmoyni...

i think the executive orders directing agencies to end energy efficiency regulations and open up more land to drilling and mining is so indicative of the character of the american right — in its view everything, whether people or our larger environment, is something to be exploited and dominated

The promises were fake. The chaos, cruelty, and corruption are real.

CRUELTY IS THEIR GOAL.

Im desperately hoping for some terrible "gas leak" at the White House that sadly (!) wipes out an entire administration. Then I can start watching the news again. Obviously this is satire.

This morning was a rude awakening. My eyes opened and my mind quickly began to assemble the first few seconds of my day when a terrible interruption broke in and I remembered: Yes, that unhinged madman is actually our President again. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/how-to-men...

The new website is already up. They've even got a section where you can send her a note, so I sent her a note saying how proud I am/we are to support her. kamalaharris.com

I’ll be posting this today

This is gold.

Welcome to Bluesky, everyone leaving Twitter because the owner of that platform is doing Nazi salutes at the inauguration!

H/t George Conway — it’s perfect 🤣 from Olivia Julianna:

This is a perfect perspective.

Presidents should not be allowed to pardon people they egged on into committing their crimes. It's not forgiveness, it's lawlessness.

Did anyone else just feel a disturbance in The Force?
