When your foundational strategy is losing to raise money, that is the only answer.

Be highly skeptical of online claims that the individual who attacked Democrats was one himself. A quick look at his online activity, his comments, the accounts he followed, suggests otherwise.

We’ve truly lost our way in this country.

An 80-year-old vet who fought for this country just got arrested protesting Trump‘s parade. He deserves respect, not handcuffs.

Trickle-down in one graph: golden shower. All rot leads to Reagan.

Republicans couldn't pass their own "big, beautiful bill" out of the House Budget Committee.

Why? Because it doesn't cut spending enough.

The cruel and devastating cuts to programs that millions of people rely on apparently need to be even MORE cruel and devastating.

The Social Security Administration (per DOGE) instituted anti-fraud checks for benefit claims made over the phone.

Only two out of over 110,000 claims had a high probability of fraud — a rate of .0018%

But it slowed retirement claim processing by 25%.

"Efficiency."

DOGE’s obsession with AI knows no bounds. Now they’re trying to replace tens of thousands of government workers with so-called “AI agents.”

My buddy and I nearly hurt ourselves laughing at this when we watched it.

-Dropped or halted investigations into 100+ corporations

-Gutted regulatory agencies and fired ethics watchdogs

-Launched a crypto coin and offered an "intimate dinner" to top buyers

-Turned the White House into a Tesla showroom to help his biggest donor

"Drain the swamp."

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy.

Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media.

That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, and the arts – to prevent us from learning.

Trump is already facing pushback from Congress on his budget proposal and now he’s planning to override them entirely.

His new budget would slash nearly every federal program by a total of $163 billion while leaving defense spending untouched.

Sometimes Trump comes up with things so extra monumentally stupid even I’m at a loss for words. He wants to take away Veterans Day. He thinks WWII ended on May 8th. This is all so ridiculous. At what point do Republicans admit Trump is insane?

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?

100%? 500%?

Try 1,085%

Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Despite promises of cuts from Trump and Elon, the U.S. spent about $220 billion more in the first 100 days than it did last year. We’re spending far more and getting far less. So where is all the money going?

Not a word of this is true. Literally not a word.

The so-called “moderate” GOP position on Medicaid cuts is no cuts above $500 billion.

Hello? That would mean 18 million children and 2 million adults with disabilities lose health care coverage, according to the latest estimates.

What’s “moderate” about that?

Senate Republicans are blaming today’s dismal economic report on former President Joe Biden’s policies. Lol 😂 give it another year, and it’ll still be Biden’s fault.

Morale is in the toilet.
The Trump administration’s months-long hunt to root out the resistance is ramping up. Investigations are intensifying, with polygraph tests being used to create a climate of fear and intimidation.

House G.O.P. Proposes Charging $1,000 to Claim Asylum, Raising Fees on Migrants As part of legislation to pay for President Trump’s domestic agenda, including his immigration crackdown, House Republic

I missed the part on the Statue of Liberty where it says...

"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free — $1000 asylum fee applies."

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/28/us/politics/house-republicans-asylum-fees.html

Musk once promised taxpayers massive savings and even teased the idea of a “DOGE dividend” check in their mailboxes when his DOGE was unleashed on the federal government. Now, he admits DOGE is likely to save only $150 billion.

This is what happens when the only book you have ever read is Harry Potter.

There’s a reason these programs matter. Arkansas is appealing the Trump administration’s decision to deny federal aid after a string of deadly, destructive tornadoes the state’s worst since 1997.

So the Republican Party has historically blocked:

-Paid sick leave
-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Expanded Child Tax Credit
-Programs to support reproductive health

And they're wondering why more people aren't having children?

Do not let Trump gaslight you into believing he has a mandate or is all powerful.

Most Americans don't support his cruel agenda.

His approval ratings are in the gutter.

Individuals and institutions are fighting back in courts and winning.

Keep up the fight.

The American Association of University Professors and other groups will ask a federal judge in Massachusetts to block the Trump administration’s revocation of visas and detention of noncitizen students and scholars nationwide. The lawsuit follows a wave of over 1,000 visa cancellations

We’ve talked about this before, but we wanted to expand on it a little more. Late last week, Elon Musk’s so-called “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) effectively took control of the Department of the Interior without a single Senate confirmation, public hearing, or vote.

Intuit donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration. He's now planning to end the free IRS Direct File program.

Apple donated $1M. Trump exempted most of Apple’s imports from tariffs.

Coinbase donated $1M. Trump’s SEC dropped a major lawsuit against them.

See how this works?

The staffers include Adam Hoffman, Payton Rehling, Jon Koval, and Marko Elez. The question is simple: why does a billionaire’s handpicked team need access to the private records of millions of immigrants? This isn’t about government efficiency. It’s about surveillance, control, and intimidation.

RFK Jr viscerally hates disability and disabled people at a fundamental level; he considers having to think about them an imposition and the idea of care and support for them as monstrous. He’s got this very old fashioned magical idea about health as a *virtue* and its absence as an insult
