"And rather than explain to these very real constituents that Republicans have sidelined us completely and created an authoritarian regime, I nodded and said, OK, you probably know more about it than I do."

Trump is now telling the states to undo the full SNAP benefits that they've been paying out of their own State coffers!
You have got to be kidding me.

There is something deeply broken about an economy that creates trillionaires while people get buried under the cost of living and 42 million go hungry. The ultra-rich should realize that my Billionaires Income Tax, aimed at ensuring they pay their fair share, represents the moderate path forward.
Tesla shareholders have approved a pay package that could make CEO Elon Musk, already the world’s richest person, the world’s first trillionaire. https://cnn.it/43KZnkA

it doesn’t get any clearer that america’s betrothal to fossil fuels is about letting energy companies pick our pockets to prop up their obsolete industry
Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums.
He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up.
How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?

I think there is nothing which encapsulates the brain rot hobbling America than news that a celebrity as wealthy, successful and powerful as Kim Kardashian somehow didn't get the memo that humans actually have landed on the moon several times. Sigh. https://loom.ly/Z26XD1o

The idea that these are public resources over which he has been improvidently granted a limited and temporary stewardship role is totally alien to him. As far as he is concerned, they’re his personal chattels.

A president who can tear down 1/3 of the White House can tear down the entire White House. A president who can steal $230M from the treasury can steal $1T from the Treasury. We have both legalized and tolerated Trump’s crimes, so they will only get bigger.

ICE has been deployed to *provoke* civilians, not to protect them. They want to throw tear gas canisters and get people on the streets riled up, all to create footage for Fox News and Newsmax, et al., that will be used as a pretext for imposing martial law to lower voting rates in Democratic cities.
The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!
Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.

I don't think the media talks enough about Republicans destroying the integrity of contracts.
Contracts are supposed to be binding documents. Courts are supposed to enforce them. This principle underpins the entire economy. If contracts mean nothing now, why would anyone do business here?
