Fine, train thread.
Leaving New York now. When I told the attendant I called and switched my room to the Hudson side of the train, he shook my hand. I have earned his respect.

Republicans Want to Demolish Student Grants and Loans
SHERO is a reader-supported publication that makes most articles free and available to the public.
Be sure to read my latest, which breaks down all of the latest Republican proposals that will limit access to student loans and federal grants, making it harder for many to access appropriate tuition funding and attend college. shero.substack.com/p/republican...

Britain and the European Union are set to sign a formal declaration committing to “free and open trade” in defiance of Donald Trump’s tariff agenda.
A leaked draft seen by POLITICO promises a “new strategic partnership” between London and Brussels based on “maintaining global economic stability and our mutual commitment to free and open trade.”
It comes as Keir Starmer’s U.K. government is locked in negotiations with the Trump administration to try to get a carve-out from the U.S. president’s new tariffs.
The draft U.K.-EU agreement, dated April 25, is one of several being drawn up ahead of a May 19 summit, which is seen as a key moment in resetting post-Brexit relations.
Officials are also negotiating U.K.-EU agreements on defense and security, fishing and energy, as well as a “common understanding” of which topics will be covered by intensive Brexit reset negotiations this year.
EU ambassadors are set to meet on Wednesday in Brussels to review progress on talks.
‘Unwavering commitment’ to Kyiv
The leaked draft also covers topics like Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the situation in the Middle East, and irregular migration.
Both parties pledge their “unwavering commitment to providing political, financial, economic, humanitarian, military and diplomatic” support for Kyiv and also assert their “commitment to securing a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, the release of all hostages, and [a] surge in humanitarian aid.”
After being manipulated by Russia into leaving the European Union through the infamous "Brexit" catastrophe, the UK and the European Union are set to sign a formal declaration committing to “free and open trade."

Mainstream media is doing a woefully inadequate job of highlighting the horrors ICE is committing across the USA. My hunch is that is by design.

Canada will stand strong as long as Canadians show up and Vote for Carney on April 28
Hoping people won’t stay home b/c they think their vote won’t matter
If Carney gets a bigger majority and popular vote than Trump did - that’ll bug him. But only if we don’t stay home

I live in PA and am represented by not just a republican but a January 6ther. I made it my goal to identify and recruit the person to run against him by the end of the year, and work relentlessly on that campaign (in my free time). Join me in your red district. Let's flip the fucking House.

Walz: "It's like Trump is stuck in the '80s. His music, his clothing, his thinking. He's been on this tariffs thing forever and every economist will tell you they just don't work ... I think the biggest myth perpetuated on this country is that Trump understands anything about business."

That didn’t take long. As the vote totals came in from Wisconsin I knew Trump would be looking for a way to jettison Musk. Musk is too big of a liability in a lot of ways. And the loss in Wisconsin proved just how much of a political liability he is to Trump and the GOP. #ProudBlue

It’s a crying shame.
To be an attorney,
which takes a lifetime of study, then representing the law,
the Constitution and justice,
not backing down to money, power or fear, IS AN HONOR.
I wouldn’t pay a bunch of money to an attorney who I’d be embarrassed to walk into court with.

BREAKING: Judge James Boasberg has ordered Trump national security officials to preserve all Signal communications between March 11 and March 15.
Earlier this month, Boasberg temporarily blocked Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport over 200 migrants to El Salvador…

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte:
"There will be no normalization of relations with Russia when the war is over. That will not happen. That will take decades because there is a total lack of confidence…even if the war comes to a conclusion, the Russian threat is still there."

The reason no one in that Signal group chat said: “hey we probably shouldn’t use this” — is because, they’re using it for everything!
Not wanting us to see what they’re doing or be able to FOIA records.
‘Signal’ is how they’re officially operating…
It’s against the law, but they don’t care.
