I cannot emphasize enough that this administration shouldn’t get 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘷𝘰𝘵𝘦 from the Dems until they start obeying the law.

Not. One.

Optics matter: if you want people to turn out next election despite troops in the streets, then show them it matters.

Do your goddamn jobs and hold the line.

Additional reporting on Federal Reserve Board Governor Lisa Cook and evidence “undercutting” the claims advanced by the Trump Administration. At a minimum, this shows why due process is so important. apnews.com/article/fede...

PSA: RFK Jr is a eugenics-supporting piece of shit. He ALSO has spasmodic dysphonia, which is why his voice sounds the way it does.

There are endless ways to express what a piece of shit he is WITHOUT mocking his disability.

RFK Jr won’t see what you say about him, but other disabled people will

Today is the last day to sign!

Woo hoo! Tell L to knock em dead!!

Oregonians: I need your help. I'm collecting stories about how Trump and Republicans' efforts to raise the costs of prescription drugs will impact patients, specifically anyone taking the cancer drug Keytruda.

Over 125 economists signed the open letter calling on the President, Congress, and the American public to uphold the principles of Federal Reserve independence and not remove Lisa Cook without due process.

Lisa Cook is right not to resign. Trump’s attempt to fire her without cause is flatly illegal.

To be clear, this is the ball game for Federal Reserve independence. If Trump can decide what constitutes "for cause" basis for firing, then every Fed board member can be fired until he has a Board that is completely acquiescent to his every demand.

Just received this statement from Lisa Cook:
"President Trump purported to fire me 'for cause' when no cause exists under the law, and he has no authority to do so. I will not resign. I will continue to carry out my duties to help the American economy as I have been doing since 2022."

If you think the attack on the Fed's Lisa Cook has nothing to do with you, you're wrong — any one of us may be next paulkrugman.substack.com/p/we-are-all...
