Warsh hearing so far has been kind of frustrating. No one has asked the questions that seem most relevant to me:
1) is Trump's criminal investigation into Powell appropriate?
2) what would you do if Trump threatened retribution against you if he didn't like your actions/Fed policy decisions?
Next time you’re in line at the Genius Bar ponder this sentence from DJT:
“When I got the call I said, wow, it’s Tim Apple (Cook!) calling, how big is that? I was very impressed with myself to have the head of Apple calling to “kiss my ass.” 🍏
Gee, I wonder why they had to pre-record Trump’s segment of ‘America Reads the Bible’? Could it possibly be his lifelong lack of reading skills?
Trump never works, there are no ‘policy meetings’ he snorts Adderall in the morning & watches TV, does a phoner w/supplicant press and then hands out a trophy in late afternoon. It’s adult day care for a drug addict. Weekends he golfs in Palm Beach.
Trump boasted this morning ‘I would have won Vietnam very quickly’ unfortunately for U.S, he was too busy catching STD’s & discriminating against African American tenants in NYC and helping family biz cheat on paying taxes while less privileged souls fought in his place. Bummer.
Washington Examiner: Imagine it was someone other than President Donald Trump. Suppose a different leader were posting deranged rants in the small hours, insulting the spiritual leader of 1.3 billion Catholics, threatening entire civilizations with annihilation, and comparing himself to God. What would be the reaction?

TODAY: Virginia voters decide a referendum that would allow the redrawing of Congressional lines
It could swing four U.S. House seats in Virginia from red-to-blue next year
HAHA he’s the judge who asked the Mueller team if they had investigated Mike Flynn for treason and called Flynn a traitor hahahahaha
@marcelias.bsky.social, the great Democratic legal fighter for democracy, on me:
"We need more people like this guy in Congress…This guy's a fighter. And he's not just saying he's a fighter, he's got the receipts, because he has gone toe-to-toe with Donald Trump and the Republicans for years now...
Sen. Warren calls out Trump for trying to tear down the Fed's independence — claiming he's doing so because "he wants the Fed to use monetary policies to artificially juice the economy in the short term" before the midterms.
She says Fed pick Kevin Warsh "is uniquely ill-suited for the job."
White text: "Join ACLU's April Action Call." Light blue text: "Together, we have the power. Join volunteers and organizations across the nation as we lay out what's next in the fight for our rights. April 28 @8 PM ET. ACLU People Power." Tinted blue photo of people at a protest with their fists raised.
It's more important than ever to build power in our communities. On our next People Power Action Call, we’ll share how you can plug into our volunteer teams and find more ways to fight for our rights this May Day and beyond.
This guy was installed by president trump
Iran makes its first major mistake and it might be fatal.
Trump brags he'd "bomb Iran" if talks fail & claims he’d have “won Vietnam quickly.” This reckless warmonger’s chaos risks endless war & higher oil prices. America rejects tRump’s dangerous delusions.

Hegseth made ending facial hair waivers his all-consuming mission in the first months of the admin. Making it more difficult for (mostly POC) service members to receive exemptions to policy for medical and religious reasons. He also end travel allowance for abortions.
Anyone who Trump wants to pay off via taxpayer money just has to file a frivolous lawsuit against the federal government and then Trump’s DOJ settles the case and Donald Trump just gifted your tax dollars to one of his cronies.

Absolutely. In the future, investigations will show that the plundering of our government by trump, and his family extended into every single part of our government. And many of the interactions with our allies, and foreign governments. trumps assets will need to be seized to recoup tax dollars.
I do not doubt that the Epstein (I hate to call it "scandal") debacle weighs on The Felon's mind.
But the wholesale plunder being acquired by the Trump Family Crime Syndicate is staggering.
I'm old enough to recall the Warren Commission, and a similar investigation would certainly expose Trump.
I salute you for your peaceful patriotic protest!
These people have given everything and they are still giving.
Thank you - to all our veterans.
Veterans Against Fascism protesters were arrested inside the U.S. Capitol building today as they staged a protest against Trump's war in Iran
The mainstream coverage is missing what actually happened this weekend inside MAGA.
They're asking whether Greene believes Butler was staged.
The real question is why the enforcement mechanism failed to silence her. New piece 👇
