8 children are dead. Ask every Republican you know if any of these were their child, what would they do to prevent future murders.

"Ms. Ross-Mahé, age 86, was greeted at the airport by her three adult children. She was still dressed in her prison wear — orange shoes, sweatpants and a gray sweater — covered in stains and holes...

This is a batshit crazy post.

We’ve also gone from:

- Vance is going

In a period of 3 hours. Incoherent psychobabble.

They took some liberty with my words, but I'll take it. ✊

Tax Day is a reminder of America’s unequal tax system. But we can fix it | Zohran Mamdani, Gabriel Zucman and Joseph Stiglitz There is no justification for a regressive system in which the super-rich contribute less than the rest of us

"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.

It’s frustrating, but not unexpected, that the administration has continued to downplay China and Russia’s involvement in helping Iran target US troops.

If/when this ceasefire fails, I would expect to see a big initial strike from Iran - they’ve had plenty of time to plan.

“Don’t believe your lying eyes”—the Trump administration pushes a reality that doesn’t match what Americans are feeling at the pump or seeing in the courts. Meanwhile, efforts to rewrite January 6th are sparking outrage on Capitol Hill. Scott MacFarlane has it all in his evening report.

WARREN: I want to understand how slashing healthcare for families so Meta gets a $3b tax cut is a 'really good outcome for the American public'

IRS CEO BISIGNANO: I don't see the two as correlated

W: Those tax cuts were paid for by pushing people off their healthcare. Did you not follow that?

The effective federal corporate income tax rate:

1950: 50%
1990: 25%
2020: 13%

Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate.

That is how we will pay for it.

Calling people antisemitic, because they are against Israel and Netanyahu is pure gaslighting. You want to shut down the conversation.
Israel the state is NOT Israel of the Bible.
Zionism is a political ideology.
You don’t get to slaughter an entire country and claim victim.

Trump’s Erratic Behavior and Extreme Comments Revive Mental Health Debate

Normal stuff here, very normal:

Large mergers are virtually always awful for consumers and the employees. Because of their size and their political weight they shut down other smaller companies in the industry. They decrease creativity and increase costs. They only people they benefit are the greedy few megalomaniacs at the top.

Keep in mind that everywhere ICE is, your local police have failed you, and abandoned their oath to serve and protect. Zero Ice officers have been arrested. They assault, the kidnap, they kill, and they all walk free. Your local police treat ICE as above the law. The betrayal of duty is staggering.

Top Democrat on House Judiciary formally asks White House physician to conduct cognitive exam of Trump: “Experts have repeatedly warned that the President has been exhibiting signs consistent with dementia and cognitive decline… increasingly incoherent, volatile, profane, deranged, and threatening.”

“'I’ve never experienced anything like this in my entire life,' the congresswoman said, fighting back tears.

"She described the way people were laying down inside as “like sardines.”

“'It is frightening in there,' she said. 'It is disgusting'..."

Buttigieg: "For the leader of this country to make a nakedly genocidal threat against another civilization as if the US was a death star that was going around blowing up civilizations, of course that is a new low ... the whole country is being judged just for tolerating that kind of thing at the WH"

A miraculous work-around. (Ahmmm ... States' rights, anyone?) Go Montana! May this solution spread to all 50 states!

It’s been over three days now since our president threatened to nuke an entire nation after starting a war with that nation for no discernible reason. And Congress still has not moved to impeach him. And Corporate Media™️ has forgotten.

We are a failed democracy. No other way to describe it.

This is a masterclass by Buttigieg

On Thursday, April 9, 2026, Donald Trump posted a graphic video on Truth Social showing a woman being beaten to death with a hammer.
He claimed the suspect was an undocumented immigrant from Haiti who had been released under the Biden administration’s policies.

Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations:

Alphabet: 8.01%
AT&T: 4.6%
Meta: 3.57%
General Motors: 3.09%
Amazon: 1.37%
Exxon Mobil: 1.31%
Disney: -1.57%
CVS Health: -3.88%

Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5%

This is what a rigged system looks like.

"President Obama refused. President Biden refused. President Bush refused. The only president who has agreed to this, obviously, is President Trump." Former Secretary of State John Kerry explains that Benjamin Netanyahu has been advocating for war against Iran across many U.S. presidencies.
