Napolous Following the Rules of the Road🐝🇺🇸

Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down.

Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.

“They don’t view an honest discussion of policy as something they need to slow down and do.” We’re digging into the Trump team’s logic, or lack-there-of, with @petebuttigieg.bsky.social.

If you're a billionaire, then you'll barely notice a few thousand dollars a year in higher prices at the store from these Trump tariffs - plus you can count on him to get you another big tax break for the wealthy.

But for everyone else, this is a big deal, and a bad one.

Today House Republicans, cheered on by the richest person on Earth, passed a budget framework that will cut support for the poorest people in our country.

All while cutting taxes for corporations and the wealthy, and massively increasing the deficit.

Fear has a way of being contagious.

But courage is also contagious.

Corey Booker just raised the bar, concluding with a call for “good trouble.” Now his fellow Dems need to clear it—and raise it higher.

Moment of clarity today in the Senate where Republicans sided with big banks & against customers. Higher fees, lower transparency.

Now it goes to the House - so call your Member of Congress to ask how they’ll vote!

To be clear: a tariff is a tax.

There were howls of protest and denial from the GOP any time we pointed out that Republicans want to cut Social Security.

Now the most powerful official in the White House goes on TV and calls it "the big one to eliminate."

Neal Schon is another magnificent guitarist that doesn't get anywhere near the praise he should.

"Law and order" in the Trump era: if you bow down to the head of the U.S. government, he may help you - whether you're awaiting trial for sex crimes in Europe or doing time in the USA for physically assaulting police.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

And here’s the part about your bank information.

If you’re wondering, here’s the story on the leaked NRO data.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

It’s great to finally learn Pete will be speaking about the party and possibly the current state of the nation. Can’t wait.

The CFPB is one of the American people’s best defenses against waste, fraud, and abuse.

Demolishing it will, of course, lead to more waste, fraud, and abuse.

Project 2025 was unpopular because of things like the plan for Trump to shut down the CFPB, which helps you get your money back if a bank cheats you.

So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?

Hi Bluesky! Glad to be here.

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.

Today in @democrats-judiciary.house.gov I played a little game with Donald Trump's lies on immigration: Rhetoric or Reality? Let's all play along!

It snowed in Tally in 1989 when I was at college! ⛄️
