A democracy is a terrible thing to lose...
Republicans to Americans: "You can starve until you let us take away your healthcare."

Republicans to tRump:
"YES, spend $300 million on a dance hall.
YES, add $1 trillion in taxes to Americans.
YES, spend $500 million on golf.
YES, send $40 billion to Argentina for no reason."

This very weird and creepy letter was created in 2003, tRump was in development on The Apprentice which came out in 2004. My own theory is that I think, in his tiny little narcissistic brain, he imagined Epstein was in the boardroom with him and this was the imaginary banter.

The Republicans have stepped over the edge of the political abyss with this heartless, selfish and craven law. Time to push them over! VOTE THEM OUT IN 2026!!!!

It’s very bad that Republican senators rolled over for Bondi, Patel, and Hegseth. But it was somewhat predictable given our tribal politics.

It’s astonishing they went along with RFK Jr. Makes one realize kooky conspiracism is a feature, not a bug, of today’s GOP.

THE RISE OF END TIMES FASCISM

My first major piece of the new Trump era, co-written with @astra.bsky.social.

The governing ideology of the far right has become a
monstrous, supremacist survivalism.

Our task is to build a movement strong enough to stop them. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

I hope you didn't sell during tRump's stupid, intentional and dangerous market crash. If you did you just handed your money directly to inside traders and corrupt billionaires and politicians.

This will be a case study in future history books on how to build a global brand juggernaut worth over 1.5 trillion dollars that revolutionized an entire industry and then intentionally lay it to waste in a matter of months for absolutely no reason.

Why haven't the Democrats already filed suit citing misuse and abuse of emergency powers??? A president CAN NOT impose tariffs except in limited emergency circumstances. Where is the challenge?

After-hours trading is way down today. My holdings are down between 5% and 8.5% since the horrific tRump tariffs announced at 4pm. This is what happens when you elect a moron backed by a spineless party of fools and cowards.
I wish I followed my gut and went to cash.

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

While the government burned, tRump fiddled with a putter and the Democratic senators debated optics and policy.

Democratic Congressman Tom Suozzi just received a huge standing ovation in a Trump +5 Congressional District at Hofstra University after talking about how despicable Trump‘s behavior was in the Oval Office with Zelensky. Americans are furious.

I’m confused by all the headline references to a “shouting match.” I saw one side shouting and the other side getting shouted over when he tried to talk.

While I appreciate the sentiment, not one Republican senator who disagrees with Trump on this will even say his name. While Zelensky demonstrated political courage, Republican senators are still afraid to say Trump’s name, except when they praise him.
