Trump is reported close to a "deal" with himself under which US taxpayers would pay him $10 billion.
I served in multiple communist and authoritarian dictatorships, but I never witnessed corruption on this scale or this blatant.

I hope dem presidential candidates are paying attention. 👀
Going to Laredo to visit Juan Velasco, a DACA recipient picked up by ICE while on his way to visit his newborn in the NICU.
The Trump Administration has arrested hundreds of DACA recipients since January 2025.
These are good, hardworking people. Not criminals.

I spent 16, SIXTEEN years fighting this crap.
I can’t believe it 😭
Kerry: I was part of the any number of conversations with Netanyahu.
Psaki: Pitching the US strike Iran?
Kerry: Yes, he wanted us to strike. He came to President Obama. He made a presentation to ask to strike. President Obama refused. President Biden refused. President Bush refused.
If Will Bunch wrote it, definitely read it:
"Let’s...stop whining about what is not possible under our system, and instead start thinking outside that box about how to save our fragile world."
I'd really like to see leadership calling for impeachment and removal, regardless of whether they have the votes to get it done. Same way we called for marriage equality before we had the votes. A leader's job is to lead. If a genocidal threat isn't impeachable, then nothing is.
I’m relieved Trump did not destroy an entire civilization last night, but his unhinged threat and illegal war make it clear he is unfit to serve as president.
Trump needs to be removed from office. And we must oppose his administration’s new $1.5 trillion budget proposal for more war.
Two weeks to remove him. Now.
Stop the War on Iran. 6 pm at White House - sponsored by multiple organizations
Anti-War protest tonight at 6 pm at the White House. Spread the word!
I'm not sure how you can be against removing this man from office right now. What will it take? A nuke being dropped? It's too late then. The purpose of impeachment and the 25th Amendment is to prevent that type of thing from happening, not just to react to it.
23 people could stop this genocidal war criminal. That’s it. 23.
20 Republican senators and 3 republican reps in the house and he’d be out of politics forever. But they won’t.
They’re addicted to power. A drug so strong they’d rather see a civilization die than give it up.
Trump’s regime is trying to rip away Temporary Protected Status and deport hundreds of thousands of people who fled danger and built lives here.
This is heartless and wrong.
Tell Congress: Hands off TPS. Protect these families.

The regime is purging voter rolls and attacking our voting rights to rig the midterms.
We won’t let them steal our democracy.
Tell Congress: Hands off our vote.

Trump is pushing the SAVE Act to purge voter rolls and suppress millions of votes ahead of the midterms.
This is election sabotage.
Tell Congress: Kill the SAVE Act. Protect our democracy. actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...
I’ve said it before — Trump’s illegal, reckless war in Iran is going to leave lasting damage to the global economy. We will all pay for his incompetence while he cashes in.
I used to write the WaPo editorials on US-Africa policy, as well on as human rights and politics on the continent.
To describe hundreds of thousands of deaths on the continent as “messy” is an absolute abomination.
If I were in Trump's Cabinet, I would spend Easter calling constitutional lawyers about the 25th Amendment.
This is completely, utterly unhinged. He's already killed thousands. He's going to kill thousands more.
American president threatens ‘fuckin’’ war crimes on the Iranian people and praises “Allah” on the morning of Easter Sunday
… is just an accurate way to bloodlessly saying the news nowadays
Journalistic malpractice and democratic betrayal.
#NoKings at San Francisco’s ocean beach — protesters joined to form a human banner saying Trump must go now.
So are the headlines saying the Democrats won this round, or nah?
Cause they did. Funding for TSA, FEMA, Coast Guard, no funding for ICE. That’s the deal Dems have been offering over & over. Republicans caved.
Negotiation points of Trump’s “new” Iran ceasefire deal are out and it’s basically the Obama Iran deal that Trump ended in 2018 because it was terrible, which led to this war in the first place. Do you realize how insane that is?
He looked old, and he seemed tired. His speech slurred. More than anything else, he seemed utterly unattuned to the many crises that are all piling up around his many careless decisions.
This is fine.
Today's Morning Shots from @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social and @eggerdc.bsky.social:
Scam profiteer theory:
There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash.
ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to.
The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty.
Budgets are moral documents.
So, the easiest way to achieve the main goal of the war would have been not to start the war
We've been fighting for community schools for years, because we know that kids thrive when all of their needs - academic, physical, and emotional - are addressed. Thank you @nysut.bsky.social for pushing for these investments so every kid has what they need. yonkerstimes.com/nysut-releas...
