High gas prices caused by Trump’s war on Iran are boosting Big Oil profits at your expense.
And they’re still getting billions of dollars in tax breaks every year — meaning you’re effectively getting charged twice.
Here’s what you need to know about Big Oil’s one-two punch.
Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis is a rare but fatal side effect of #measles infection, which manifests years after a kid recovers. This story of a family who lost a 10-year old to it is heartbreaking. Renae was too young to be vaccinated when she caught measles. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/21/o...
Maybe 🤔, just maybe, we shouldn’t allow drunks, idiots, and dementia patients to be in charge of our country.
Congratulations to Chief Justice Megan Cavanagh on winning the Michigan Democratic Party's endorsement for the Michigan Supreme Court!
🔥SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “Ivanka’s husband Jared Kushner’s on the Saudi payroll for $2 BILLION— as he leads 🇺🇸 diplomacy + asks sheikhs for billions more… Never have we seen so little effort to hide so much corruption. The Mar-a-Lago mafia taking corruption to spectacular new heights.”

🇮🇱Israeli First megadonor Miriam Adelson reportedly funnels $40M into GOP super PACs ahead of midterms —another reminder that in today’s GOP politics, megadonors don’t just support campaigns, they shape the battlefield. When a single check can swing tens of millions into coordinated political warfare
Maybe he should have thought about this before imposing all those ruinous tariffs 🤔.
Here’s what makes this especially infuriating: the mine would be operated by Twin Metals a subsidiary of a Chilean company with a deal to smelt the copper in China. Foreign company with foreign profits. American wilderness destroyed. China gets the copper. We get the pollution.
Trump has already issued 1,600 pardons this term.
Now he's promising to pardon everyone within 200 feet of the Oval.
The radius keeps growing.
At this rate...he'll pardon the squirrels on the South Lawn.

John Deere has to pay farmers $99 million to resolve a class action right-to-repair lawsuit.

even if you let most of the pigs survive after you slaughter one of their number in front of them, they’re probably still going to be a little *nervous*
There are 150 Catholics serving in Congress. At least, 67 are Rs.
Have you heard a single one speak out against Trump’s attacks on the Pope?
Repubs are so spineless & afraid of Trump that they won’t even defend their own religion.
Are these weak people who you want representing you?

What it says on the tin.
Those of us who remember the late seventies can tell you that it’s always a good sign when they start writing the numbers on the gas pump by hand.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has signed a decree establishing Universal Healthcare for all Mexican citizens.
The United States could’ve had this, but people chose economic collapse, cruelty and death instead. I’ll never regret voting for Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris.
Here we fixed this for you, @wsj.com
We see you trying to help JD pretend he doesn’t have to wear this war when he runs for president. Nope.

NEW: Trump accepted $37m worth of donated steel for his WH ballroom project from the Luxembourg-based company ArcelorMittal.

SAUDI ARABIA'S VITAL EAST-WEST OIL PIPELINE CARRYING CRUDE FROM THE GULF TO THE RED SEA FOR EXPORT HAS BEEN ATTACKED -

Iran learned they can bully the Gulf States with impunity. They learned that, absent a ground invasion and a weeks-long naval mine-clearing operation, we can’t do anything to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
They can close it again any time they want and send the world into an economic tailspin. 2/4
This morning, I asked President Trump if he’s okay with the Iranians charging a toll for all ships that go through the Strait of Hormuz, he told me there may be a Joint US-Iran venture to charge tolls: “We’re thinking of doing it as a joint venture. It’s a way of securing it — also securing it from lots of other people.” “It’s a beautiful thing”
Trump went from making genocidal threats against Iran to becoming business partners with Iran in 24 hours.
The guy is loonier than a shithouse rat.
