US taxpayer money should not be used to buy crypto so Trump can enrich himself, family, & friends. Yet again, America needs Republicans in Congress to step up, show some courage, and denounce this scheme. Instead, they will remain silent and propose another bill to honor Trump.

Everything that we warned the American public about regarding RFK Jr. is already happening.

An excerpt from an OpEd that @jimalwine.bsky.social and I published. We wrote about about what happened in Samoa with the measles outbreak there and said, simply:

“The same will happen here”.

If Trump was capable of complex negotiations and cared about average Americans I would believe these were only threats of destructive tariffs meant to coax Canada & Mexico into action. However he is a simpleton with contempt for the everyday man. Expect the worst.

Trump's Truth Social rant suggests he'll "intentionally raise prices for the American people"
Despite assurances that he is merely negotiating, Trump's vow to impose tariffs on day one could be disastrous.

Truth doesn't care about being questioned if it has nothing to hide even if it causes pain or exposes a demon hiding in the darkness to avoid the light

Lies hate being questioned & exposed b/c the only way it survives is in darkness & in the minds of those who are being told what they want to hear

Gaetz is out as AG, Gaetz can't walk free w-out investigation. Dems need this ruthless aggression on all of Trump's picks with allegations hanging over them, next like Linda McMahon how can she head dept of education with this allegation hanging over her.

Linda McMahon made a fortune with WWE. Wrestling scandals now shadow her rise.
Donald Trump’s transition co-chair and Education Department pick, along with her husband, are named in a recent lawsuit claiming they ignored abuse at WWE.

Trump said most of his nominations last time were terrible because he listened to bad advice from RINOs but this time he was going to make the decisions himself and choose only the best people because now he had it all figured out. Doesn’t seem to be going well so far.

Normally, I reject this sort of criticism towards the media, but this time @mcopelov.bsky.social is right: why celebrate people exhibiting abhorrent behavior? I would love to listen to an explanation from the @economist.com.
A key reason voters don't believe the fascists are fascists is that major media outlets keep normalizing them with cover stories cueing the public they are just like Hollywood celebrities.

Today in "neither our media nor our political system is designed to deal with a far right authoritarian party"
