Rand Paul: "When you kill someone, if you're not in a declared war, you really need to know someone's name at least. You have to accuse them of something. You have to present evidence. So all of these people have been blown up without any evidence of a crime."

I find I canโ€™t muster a proper response to either the Tylenol madness or the U.N. appearance. At some point it is just too ridiculous. It would feel insane to offer sane commentary.

Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs.

A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP โ€” which is about to get cut.

If Bezos can spend $50M on a wedding, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists โ€” and that they both individually wield such massive power โ€” is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.

@profgalloway.comโ€™s #CupOfJoe is so deliciously on point. Even Piers is silenced.
Pay attention.

personally would like to see every store show what part of the price increase is due to tariffs bc if these tariffs ever come down, i need to see that price go right back down

Former Vice President Gore rips Trump during Climate Week in San Francisco:

โ€œOur Constitution, written by our founders, is intended to protect us from a threat identical to Donald Trump, who seeks power at all costs to get more power.โ€

Keep calling him out for what he is: a power-hungry dictator.

One man just wiped out $10 trillion in wealth, is destroying centuries-old legal protections, and seems determined to unravel humanityโ€™s greatest public health achievement. In 3 months.

I donโ€™t know how we get out of this. But if we do, one person can never have that kind of power again.

Today, while the market collapsed and four soldiers who died on an exercise in Lithuania arrived at Dover, where was Donald Trump? Was he monitoring the markets? Was he there for the arrival of these heroes?

Nope: he was golfing, with the Saudis

I wonder how many people realize the tariff on auto parts causes car insurance premiums to go up?

Just watched the President's "Liberation Day" speech.

Based on this, I can confirm many Americans will be liberated from:

- Being able to afford groceries
- Much of their retirement savings
- Any hope of buying a home

As for lower prices? Just the opposite.

Itโ€™s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything thatโ€™s happening right now wasnโ€™t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

Ossoff: Heโ€™s so consumed by his efforts to secure revenge, crush his enemies, and conquer Greenland that heโ€™s doing nothing for the people who elected him. His entire domestic agenda is tax breaks for the wealthy, rounding up immigrants, revenge, and centralizing as much power as he can..

Facts:

Elon Musk is not in the cabinet.
Elon Musk is not a department head.
Elon Musk was not confirmed by the Senate.

โ€œDOGEโ€ is not a real department.
โ€œDOGEโ€ was never created by Congress.
โ€œDOGEโ€ is acting outside all legal authority.

โ€œDOGEโ€ is fake โ€” and 100% CORRUPT.

Donald Trumpโ€™s cuts to Medicaid will blow a massive hole in our state budget and leave thousands without care.

Thereโ€™s a storm coming from Washington. Republicans and Democrats should work together to protect our state from Trump.

Defend our people, not the President.
