Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

This “deal” is a surrender that all congressional Democrats should reject out of hand. It’s bad policy that will raise healthcare prices and bad politics that gives the regime more power to do more harm. Make no mistake: As some Senate Democrats consider surrender, Republicans are losing this fight.
🚨 We’re hearing that Senate Democrats are on the verge of caving to Trump in another “Schumer Surrender.”

That means your Democratic senators need to hear from you right now.

Canceled!
Spotify is running recruitment ads for ICE.

A platform built to connect creators and listeners is helping an authoritarian regime build up its secret police force.

But we’re not going to idly accept that. We’re going to make Spotify listen: indivisible.org/cancel-spoti... #CancelSpotify

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Good day today: marching with so many positive minded people gives me hope that we can overcome hate, bigotry, lies, right wing propaganda and autocracy!

More than five million Americans in over 2,100 towns and cities joined us today to say we don't do kings in this country. Thank you for making it clear that we won't be ruled by fear.

The President’s unprecedented Executive Order yesterday targeting Messrs. Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor for nothing but the exercise of their First Amendment rights is the President’s most constitutionally corrupt Executive Order to date.

“The key point is this: Without this abuse of power, Trump could not be unleashing such havoc. In short, Trump’s lawlessness and his economic destruction are the same story: The former doesn’t just enable the latter; the two are inextricably entangled with each other.”
“Left-leaning economic populism does appear to be the way forward for Democrats. But it can’t be right that this diminishes the case for a full-throated party-wide indictment of Trump’s abuses of power and efforts to dismantle the rule of law.” newrepublic.com/article/1936...
Obama’s Blistering New Takedown of Trump Gives Dems a Way Forward
In an appearance on Thursday, the former president laid out the connection between Trump’s lawlessness and—yes—the price of eggs. Will other Democrats follow?

I wanna highlight this and the reference from @jerrymcm.bsky.social - by Trump's reasoning he should have slapped a 41% tariff on Russia. He did not. Why? Just remember Speaker Pelosi's words right in Trump’s face.

Here's one statistic for you:

→ Net jobs created under Clinton and Obama: 33.8 million.
→ Net jobs created under Bush, Bush, AND Trump: 1.9 million.

That is not a typo.
Of Course Trump Will Tank the Economy. It’s What Republicans Do.
As the president’s “Liberation Day” nears, it’s time to liberate ourselves from the vicious cycle of Democrats having to clean up the GOP’s messes.

From the USMCA: "Wage requirement that 40%-45% of auto content be made by workers earning at least $16 an hour. "

If the goal were really to help US workers and manufacturing, this would have been a better criterion for determining import taxes (aka tariffs). Side effect: reduces migration.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.
