President Donald Trump urged Republicans to seize control of elections and place voting under national authority Monday — one of his most explicit signals yet that he plans to interfere with the workings of democracy. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Trump: ‘We should take over the voting’
Trump, as usual, offered no evidence for any of his claims.

It's remarkable that Trump's claim that there are no constraints on his power other than his "own morality"--that he thinks he can govern as a dictator--proved to be a 1-day story, with no follow-up coverage in the New York Times, to whom he said this, or, as far as I can tell, any other newspaper.

Two questions:

1. Do we still have a War Powers Act, which prevents a president from carrying out military aggression without Congress’s consent?

2. Do we still have a Congress?

The care that went into releasing these files and the number of Epstein clients arrested show just how serious Trump’s DOJ takes child sex trafficking

Traditionally that’s the trade off — the cop proves their authority and then expects people to respect it.

ICE refuses to give us proof but demands we respect them as if they had.

That’s not how this works

Instead of CUTTING Social Security benefits, Congress should INCREASE payments by $200 per month and extend the solvency of the Social Security program by 75 YEARS.

How? Make the wealthiest Americans pay a fairer share.

I’ve got a bill to get it done.
Social Security's insolvency date is now a year earlier. Here's how it could impact your benefits.
Social Security is dipping into its trust fund to pay current retirees, with spending outpacing its revenue from payroll taxes.

Ok so yeah, this has quickly become the #1 misunderstanding about the canceled grants

the grants are not “subsidies” or “entitlements” to Harvard or Princeton or whatever

they aren’t going into universities’ endowments

they are competitive contracts won by these universities to do research
There is a PR narrative quickly emerging about “entitlement” of elite universities, as if this $ is some sort of subsidy

Harvard & others must counter this quickly

The $ doesn’t flow into Harvard’s coffers - this is grant money, most of which goes to research the govt has agreed has social value

Trump has taken the most powerful country in the world, with the greatest alliances, and the strongest economy, and flushed it down the toilet based on his understanding of politics in 1984 and trade deficits.

The greatest self shot to the nut sack in history

To every American tuning in to Trump’s address tonight, do two things before you watch:

Check your 401k.

Check your last grocery bill, and add 25%.

No matter what the President says tonight, that’s the reality of what he’s doing to your family finances.

Attention working-class Americans:

Republicans’ new budget does NOT include no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, or no tax on Social Security.

Instead it protects tax handouts for billionaires and makes way for the largest Medicaid cut in history.
