I wonder what any of you would do differently in your lives if I said "yes, America is at this moment a fascist nation."
Because I tell ya what, if I thought so, I'd be doing things differently. For starters, I wouldn't bother worrying about elections or candidates or whom to support. /1

Trump has been trying to kill the CFPB for a year – an agency that's returned over $21 billion directly to consumers cheated by giant corporations. But today Russ Vought was forced to request funding for the CFPB because we fought back in the courts.

We’ll stay in the fight.

I kind of think the most revealing thing about Trump and his advisors’ view of the economy are the (false) “it’s fine, the economy is doing well in red states” lines from the CEA report that he posted on Truth Social
Key Economic Takeaways • States won by Trump have added 11x more jobs than left-wing, red-tape-ridden states. The Golden Age is in motion. • Focus on housing is coming at a good time, as jobs in residential construction are down slightly over the year. • All construction job gains are in red states and all manufacturing job losses are in blue states. • Private sector annual wages are on track to rise $2,700 for a full time worker since January. Manufacturing is even higher at $3,000. • The Atlanta Fed forecasts that the U.S. will grow even faster in Q4 than 02 and Q3, despite the shutdown. Council of Economic Advisers 6

Welcome to Minnesota, fuckers. Also this is super disturbing because the ICE agent's assault rifle appears to fire as he falls down.

This was filmed by a friend near Chicago and Lake last night.

The Trump/Musk tax increases and wreaking havoc on working Nevadans in every aspect of their lives. Unfortunately, our school have not escaped the chaos. These tariffs are making it impossible to pay for the essentials our children need with education budgets which are already strained to the max.

In addition to the shortfall projected for the Education Fund, the #NVLeg should move $764M from the Education Stabilization Account to the Education Fund. This is the most responsible budget action that could be taken, as those funds are intended for just this purpose. #PassThePlan
