BREAKING: Donald Trump just boosted Democrats’ chances of taking the House.
He said the quiet part out loud, “fair elections” means he loses power.
That’s not a warning, that’s a confession.
Absolutely.
"These people are stealing your tax money, robbing you of services you paid for to enrich themselves. I will stop that."
That's a pretty simple and effective message.
One small step…
Of course the roots of the “shadow docket” are in service to the fossil fuel billionaires who captured the Court. 🧵
The Mamdani effect at work? Fine.
Because Trump is as relevant as a soiled diaper to most people at this point.
Sure, the investigations and reforms will happen.
But talking about meaningful things that sideline the billionaires and help everyone else is the way past all this.
this is just a warmed over david duke speech from 1990
In a sane administration, the FBI Director doesn’t go on the morning news to prove he’s not a drunk, the Defense Secretary doesn’t quote Tarantino to prove he’s a man of God, and the President doesn’t take multiple cognitive exams to prove he’s not insane.
Is anyone in the Trump administration not a drunk, a junky, a predator or a psycho?
Occam’s Kazoo: shamelessly pinched from FB!
Nice. Two guys who get what and whom government is supposed to be for hang out with some kids.
A peer reviewed study shows a promising link between flu and shingles vaccines and a reduced risk of dementia. A heroin addict who cut off a raccoon’s penis for “further study” says these vaccines cause autism. For busy Americans, it can be hard to know who to trust.
Amanda Ungaro was 16 when she was flown to the US on an Epstein plane. She later became close to the Trumps
On Apr. 8, she went on X to threaten legal action vs Melania “and your pedophile husband”
On Apr. 9, Melania made that odd public statement about Epstein

So, Chief Justice Roberts panicked over a strong, popular president taking on the fossil fuel industry.
And now we have a shadow docket system that enables the creeping fascism of a criminal, weak, unpopular president.
That’s the sorry legacy of the Roberts court.
“The emergency docket is now a central legacy of the court led by Chief Justice Roberts.”
How damn embarrassing.
it is, among other things, incredibly striking to see that roberts was so solicitous of the burden the clean power plan might put on fossil fuel executives, when, a decade later, he is indifferent to the way trump’s moves have thrown hundreds of thousands of lives into turmoil.
It’s almost like Republicans fear inconvenient questions about the simultaneous disasters they own.
For the good of the nation and the world, it’s time we face the reality: The most powerful man in the world does not have the mental capacity to do the job. robertreich.substack.com/p/hes-losing-all-his-mar...
Mamdani: When I ran for mayor, I said I was going to tax the rich
Well, today we're taxing the rich...
They own this. Whatever disasters continue to unfold belong not to the president and his Cabinet alone, but to the entire Republican Party.
Wouldn't it be nice if you could say goodbye to TurboTax and file your taxes for free, online, and directly with the IRS?
I have a bill to get that done.
THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT
The only way to get a sense of how detached from reality and full of shit our president is now is to watch a full interview- unfortunately most people would rather claw their eyes out, understandably.
"There is no justification for a regressive system in which the super-rich contribute less than the rest of us," write @josephestiglitz.bsky.social, @gabrielzucman.bsky.social, and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social.
How many zillion of us agree today? Of all the ways the U.S. is needlessly stupid compared to other rich countries, the tax system stands out.
Newly-Elected Hungarian PM Says Orbán Was Paying CPAC, Calls It a ‘Crime’ That ‘Will Have to Be Investigated’. Great Hungary's prosecutors need to investigate CPAC and prosecute all involved in this bribery scandal! www.mediaite.com/media/news/n...
If Hungary can get rid of its autocrat, America can too

It’s pretty rich that MAGA is trying to shame Democratic members of Congress for not knowing about the allegations against Eric Swalwell.
They knew about the allegations against Donald Trump for years and still pushed him on America.
The Orban government funding CPAC is a big fat story. More, please.
As the great @markhertling.bsky.social says: “It’s not as easy as it sounds.”
