This epic takedown of Trump’s entire cabinet by Jen Psaki would be funny if millions of lives weren’t hanging in the balance because of his no good, incompetent, unqualified, reckless, corrupt, unserious, and flat out dangerous picks.

Trump told the female reporter ‘Quiet, Piggy’

He was extremely rude and disrespectful, especially towards women.

What a fail by every other reporter in the room not to ask him

about showing such disgusting disrespect to a female reporter

The second impact will be more damaging and hard to recover. Trump is directing our economy just like his failed businesses. His interest is short term personal gain over long term growth for American people.
Trump's tariffs are hurting us in two ways:

First, the obvious: Higher costs → either lower profits or higher prices.

Second, more subtle (perhaps bigger): We’ve signaled we’re an unreliable partner, so allies are reorganizing supply chains to avoid us. That's hard to unwind.

American cities have long been a leader in reforms that make cities livable and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is a part of that tradition. I discuss Ohio progressive era Mayor Jones, who advanced ideas far more bolder (public utilities!) than modest ones by Zohran proving Zohran proposals are sound

Lex McMenamin, one of many valuable Teen Vogue reporters laid off today, said, "Majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. There are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue." 💔

As @sifill.bsky.social noted, this is NOT a business decision. Goal is to suppress knowledge, analysis. 🧵

There’s no longer any black women or trans people at Teen Vogue.

This was a publication that listened to young voices, had progressive political views and frequently reported on things other outlets were too cowardly to touch.

Disgusting example of capitulating to the regime & ruining a brand!
thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.
