The clear takeaway from today is that Donald Trump is not unstoppable and you are not powerless.

The vast majority of the immigrants who Trump is terrorizing have done nothing wrong. They came here to work, to give their families a better life. Trump should try acting like a President for once…

This week in DC brought us one, big nasty fight between Trump and Musk.

Our focus must remain on killing the GOP Tax Scam which is one, big ugly bill designed to hurt everyday Americans.

The FDA commissioner says that the decision of whether a pregnant woman should get a Covid vaccine should come down to a conversation with their doctor — not a recommendation by the federal government.

After-tax income under the Trump/GOP budget:

-People making less than $17/k year: LOSE $1000
-People making between $17k and $51k/yr: LOSE $700
-People making over $4.3M/year: GAIN $389,000

This is what class warfare looks like.

MAGA will be hurt first by the upcoming product shortages caused by Trump’s insane tariff policies. Good — that’s as it should be!
#TrumpTariffs
With all the talk of product shortages , I think it should be said that products will first find their way to densely populated areas first and everywhere else, last

This certainly will hurt all those red counties. How they react to their shelves being everything will define the midterms
