MAGA's racism is BAD FOR BUSINESS. South Korea launches a human rights violation investigation into the detention of its citizens & threatens to halt investments into the United States. Thanks, MAGA Karen. youtu.be/tTlUZoqTJOQ?...

And Portugal announces they are buying French jets rather than F-35s. Great idea to send Vance and Don Jr on a scouting mission as a precursor to a Greenland takeover.

My main observation from the last few hours of monitoring US social media is that Democrats are universally denouncing political violence and calling for calm while MAGA are escalating language and openly lusting for retribution against broad categories of people they identity as their enemies.

Three students were critically shot at Evergreen High School, Colorado; suspect neutralized. Meanwhile, Trump focuses on Charlie Kirk—does anyone actually care about the kids, or is it just another tragic footnote in endless school shootings? abcnews.go.com/US/shooting-...

i went to my favorite bookshop and i asked for something that was easy, but not mindless i did not expect one of the loveliest stories i’ve ever read, sticking it’s little robot hand inside of my chest and lighting me up

DOJ Deputy Chief Joseph Schnitt admitted that the government will "redact every republican" and "leave all the liberal, democratic people” on the Epstein client list. He also said Ghislaine Maxwell was moved to a minimum securithy prison as "a benefit to keep her mouth shut."

"Stay tuned for more details" -- Epstein survivor announces that survivors are creating their own list of Epstein-related abusers

If you thought the Republican cuts to Medicaid wouldn’t affect you think again. And you better read this if you have health insurance through the ACA! #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory

Yikes

If you live in a blue city—especially a sanctuary city—brace yourself. ICE is targeting these areas hard. The Trump regime is zeroing in on jurisdictions that limit cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. It’s not random. It’s political.

Congrats Mark Carney!!!

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

I’m glad Trump folded. So what did we just go thru all that for?

I’m all for reducing spending, but to do that during a recession is economic suicide. Anyone who knows anything knows that

2800 people turned out in Youngstown Ohio last night for a town hall with Democratic Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. Local GOP congressman Michael Rulli won't do events like this with his constituents, so Democrats are doing so in his district: www.youtube.com/watch?v=krWH...

I want to point this out because it's easy to miss this detail: SCOTUS's ruling on the Alien Enemies Act is so horrifically bad that 𝗔𝗺𝘆 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗕𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗲𝘁𝘁 𝗷𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗯𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁.

The irony of Elon accusing everyone under the sun of profiting from some nebulous slush fund is that he himself is the recipient of $38 billion in government handouts.

🧵I worked at a garment factory in the 90s. It was called Garan. We made Garananimals clothing for children. The plant moved to Mexico in the early 2000s. 99% of the workers were women. The women who climbed up on top of tables and cut patterns out all day made $6.40/hour. The girls turning shirts

Sotomayor warns in her dissent that the Trump regime is arguing they can grab anyone they want including 🇺🇸 citizens and send them to foreign Prisons

MAGA finally got their red wave

This is interesting, Lee county Florida shows off their new cyber truck — and with a tiny bit of digging it seems that they're under investigation for their finances. Hmmm🧐 www.capecoralbreeze.com/news/local-n...

5 worst stock market crashes in US history: 1929 - Hoover 🔴 1987 - Reagan 🔴 2008 - Bush 🔴 2020 - Trump 🔴 2025 - Trump 🔴

my humble opinion is that if your job is to manage risk and make big decisions about markets and you screw up your judgement this badly you should be disqualified from ever managing money and also shunned completely from speaking on the subject in public again

I’m old enough to remember when I took out a full-page ad in the New York Times last fall to publish a letter signed by 225 mental-health professionals saying that Trump’s severe personality disorders made him destructive and dangerous.

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat. They're trying to get away with it again.

Who benefits from an economic crisis? Trump does. He declares an economic emergency—then manufactures one—which allows him to expand his power. Under the National Emergencies Act (NEA), the president can unlock more than 120 special statutory powers. No wonder he was just out golfing—crisis pays.

NEW YORK (AP) — Dow drops 1,200 and global markets tumble as worries deepen about economic impact of Trump's trade war.

NEW: The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit just ruled that two board members fired by Trump can go back to their jobs: Merit Systems Protection Board member Cathy Harris and National Labor Relations Board member Gwynne Wilcox.

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon says Trump's tariffs will likely boost prices on both domestic and imported goods. "We are likely to see inflationary outcomes, not only on imported goods but on domestic prices, as input costs rise and demand increases on domestic products."

"Standing up to abuse of power is difficult. It can also be inspiring. People who do so often look back proudly on their actions and are celebrated for it after a crisis passes. But crises don't usually end on their own. Resolving them requires courage and action..." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/06/o...

What a fucking dope.

Our fascist government put a third-grader in handcuffs.

60 Minutes found no criminal record for 75% of the Venezuelan migrants the U.S. sent to a mega-prison in El Salvador. https://cbsn.ws/4lC4Vp5

It’s time for Congress to reign in the Mad King. These tariffs haven’t even hit for real and the world is off the rails. Politically, it’s helpful to Dems, but this is why I’m not a good politician b/c I care too deeply about the harm on all people, even on those that hate my very existence.

Is this who we are? 😳🇺🇸

Well this seems like a fantastic plan. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/h...

One man just wiped out $10 trillion in wealth, is destroying centuries-old legal protections, and seems determined to unravel humanity’s greatest public health achievement. In 3 months. I don’t know how we get out of this. But if we do, one person can never have that kind of power again.

Y’all. My cousin planned a Hands Off event in rural NC. On 3/27, she told me “if 15 people show up, I will be happy.” Well, she had 200+ people show up!!! I couldn’t attend due to a medical issue, but I’m so freaking proud of her I just had to share! Speak up! Speak loud! #HandsOff

The orange felon says inflation won’t be a big deal. This is the asshole who told his cult that we would be no inflation whilst he’s in power and now he’s bringing on the next recession. He should’ve been sent to jail when it was still possible to try him for his crimes.
