The purpose of these tariffs is to be able to lift them to those who bow down to him and sacrifice their dignity. That is what he did to the GOP, the billionaires, and is doing now to Big Law. Those who stand up will be punished, those who bend a knee and humiliate themselves will be rewarded.

Among the Education Department’s new appointees is Lindsey Burke, the lead author of Project 2025’s education section.

She envisions dramatic enrollment declines for public schools: “We’re going to have a lot of empty school buildings.”

AOC: You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to keep people from getting poisoned, from dangerous chemicals

You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to bring down the cost of housing

The only people more terrified of a Mamdani mayorship/political future than Trump and MAGA is the democratic establishment. Schumer has still not endorsed him. Pelosi and Jeffries? Still no endorsement.

Establishment dems do not represent us. They must go! newrepublic.com/article/1992...

The Democratic Establishment’s Shunning of Mamdani Is Disqualifying

What exactly are Schumer, Jeffries, et al. afraid of? If they won’t get behind Mamdani, progressives should make them pay a future price.

Maybe @governor.ca.gov ‘s social media chief can tell him how all the votes he’ll lose from folks who believe in human rights for all won’t make up for any GOPs he picks up for validating their hate and oppression. FFS, gov, live and let live.

Politicians who meet fascists half way, are just fascists.

Newsom is all about publicity & nothing about integrity.

It’s been depressing watching American ppl hero-worship a power crazed sell-out. It’s not just Kimberly Guilfoyle & cosmetic surgery he has in common with the Trumps. READ this:

1. Yesterday, the press gave Gavin Newsom favorable coverage for signing pro-LGBTQ+ bills.

Little noticed, however, was that he vetoed one of the most important ones: a bill allowing trans people 12 month HRT stockpiles, protecting them from federal threats.
