Trump just cut off aid to Ukraine. A small, petty man, who has embarrassed our country around the world and made us weaker. If there was any doubt that there is something untoward between Trump and Putin, this cements it. Truly shameful day for the USA.

The markets are crashing, we can't afford eggs anymore, the economy is shrinking, our allies are abandoning us...

But we'll always have the Gulf of America.

Freeland: "If these tariffs are put in place, it is going to hurt Americans ... your grocery prices are gonna go up, bc you know what you need to grow food in the US? You need fertilizer. 80% of it comes from Canada and you're gonna be a 25% tax on it? ... the WSJ is right. This is dumb."

Elon Musk shared a call from conservative political commentator Ben Shapiro urging Trump to pardon Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer convicted in the 2020 killing of George Floyd.

“NEEDLESS CATASTROPHE”

I saw @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social use this phrase in a video recently and this is exactly how it feels every day in a country run by soulless sycophants.

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to shutter for a week The closure of the CFPB, established after the 2008 financial crisis, follows a visit Friday by members of Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service team.

They have destroyed an important agency created by Liz Warren whose objective was to protect consumers. Once again, populism is losing to the broligarchs. Wake up and fight back!

Trump is shutting down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, an agency that has returned nearly $20 billion to consumers since it was created in 2011. The CFPB helps businesses who play by the rules not be disadvantaged by businesses who cheat. Shutting it down will only hurt American consumers.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Trump says he may consider rejoining World Health Organization President Donald Trump said on Saturday he may consider rejoining the World Health Organization, days after ordering a U.S. exit from the global health agency over what he described as a mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic and other international health crises.

Idiot. The man is an incompetent idiot. They didn’t give any thought to the consequences of their flood of crap. Ignorant idiots

Trump doing a campaign rally tonight in Las Vegas. Like I said, he doesn't actually want to do the job, nor is he good at it. He just wants to be the center of attention and enrich himself massively, and of course stay out of prison.

Yesterday, President Biden finalized a rule to remove medical debt from the credit reports of millions of Americans.

The number of Americans with medical debt on their credit reports will be zero — down from 46 million right before he took office.

Why isn’t anybody talking about this?

Raskin Statement on Four-Year Anniversary of Jan. 6 Insurrection and 2024 Presidential Election Certification

On Monday, Congress met to certify the presidential election.

Democrats didn't try to overthrow the election because we're constitutional patriots. And we'll always stand strong for the Constitution against lawlessness and corruption.

Racist assholes have stopped me on the street, all my life, to tell me to “go back where I came from.” Every Asian I know has experienced this. Now racists will feel even more empowered to go after ANY Asian, with the government’s blessing.

Be careful out there, folks.

So, they voted for the rapist felon traitor because of “the economy”, and yet they don’t seem to care that the cabinet posts of the lowest priority to him, are the ones which pertain to… the economy.

This is why I said we needed to hold off on the day-after hot takes about What The Election Means.

We still don’t have all the numbers but it’s clear any talk of a “mandate” was wildly overblown.

He won, yes. But only narrowly.

I just want to add to this that if Asian Americans somehow think we’ll be exempt — the US is arguably in a Cold War with China. It wouldn’t take much for this next administration to decide that’s rationale enough.

Post from Latino pollster Mike Madrid:

Over half of those deported were US citizens.”

Post from Latino pollster Mike Madrid: “Doing some research for an upcoming article on the last “mass deportation” of Mexicans during the 1930’s. Over half of those deported were US citizens.”

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.

Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”
