It’s nice to finally see Warren Zevon being recognized by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for the Musical Influence Award, but he needs to also be inducted. He was fantastic. #WarrenZevon #rockandrollhalloffame

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration.

So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives.

So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

The fascism we are experiencing is an EMERGENCY. It needs to be responded to with lightening speed.

The courts are helping, but lightening speed is not their thing. They weren't designed for that.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

A federal judge in Washington said on Monday that the way the Trump administration set up and has been running Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency may violate the Constitution.

Pentagon brings right-wing podcaster on board to run digital media Graham Allen’s hiring comes as DOD looks to lay off tens of thousands of employees and freeze hiring to cut costs.

Good to know that the best use of our tax dollars at DOD under Hegseth is to put right-wing social media influencers on the payroll. www.defenseone.com/policy/2025/...
