How much you want to bet that they will not follow the law in white Republican districts?

Pretty stunning to see the difference between Fox News and Fox Business.

They know how much they are lying to people.

Good day to remember that a US President has no inherent power over tariffs whatsoever. It’s not like war powers or pardons. It’s entirely delegated by Congress to deal with emergencies. GOP Congress cld modify that law tonight and bring this to a screeching halt.

this stuff is happening across the country and even more intensively downstream of the veterans admin but it's happening in so many places at once and without any public notification that it's still only barely emerging in the news
A friend drove two hours today for her breast cancer chemotherapy only to learn it was canceled due to NIH cuts. Clinical trial ended midstream. No treatment, no restart, no plan, no information. Her bro-in-law's chemo was also canceled.

Seems like Hegseth's Stand Down Our Defenses Against Russia order should be getting a bit more attention.

Susan Collins chairs the Senate Appropriations Committee and has the power to push back against the Trump-Musk misuse of federal funds.

If you live in Maine and are ... concerned? troubled? worried? ... let her know and let her know often.
The first is Susan Collins from Maine. Yes, she is a coward, but she needs to be visited in DC and in her Maine offices, and we need to call her every day until this stops. 2/ www.collins.senate.gov

To every BS question White House press staff feeds to MSM interviewers abt whether Dems ‘want a shutdown’, ‘are gonna vote for a shutdown’. Of course not. We just need the criminal conduct to stop before we can negotiate if the White House is asking for our votes. Who could disagree with that?

I think we might know where all the missing Dem ballots went

This is Ethan Shaotran. He's one of Musk's DOGE takeover hackers

2 yrs ago he won the Berkeley AI Hackathon

But in 2000 won the HackGT7 with a ballot altering program called BallotProof

Here's the deep dive that he couldn't scrub....

The Washington Post editorial this morning essentially equating Biden's questionable pardons with Trump's outrageous Jan. 6 pardons was unconscionable. The newspaper I've been part of for 48 years has utterly lost its soul.

Violent paramilitary forces commingling with government is a signal for society. It is a signal that attempts to kill your opposition are heroic and will be lauded. This is a pretext to violence and insurrection against those seen as the enemy. This is the stuff civil conflict is made of

A radicalized Trump voter was the one who tried to assassinate him. Radicalized Trump voters attacked the Capitol. A radicalized Trump voter blew up his Cybertruck in front of a Trump hotel. The GOP is playing with fire. They created this monster and they think they can tame it.

Good luck.

Three Republican justices on the North Carolina Supreme Court made it very clear tonight that they intend to steal a seat on their court for a Republican candidate who lost by 734 votes. Their opinions are pure Stop the Steal insanity.

The 4th Circuit needs to intervene immediately. rb.gy/nqceab

! The Trump administration wants ICE to build four detention centers each with 10,000 bed capacity. Only the LA County Jail and Rikers are larger, and that's about the size of the Cook County and Harris County jails.

That would cost tens of billions and require thousands of new personnel.

The story can't be: "Democrats boycott." The story must be: "Republicans illegally seize power."
"The rules governing the exercise of power in a representative democracy should not — must not — be Calvinball." The MNGOP illegally seizes power in the statehouse. It's part of a pattern. From MSNBC.

Minnesota voters elected a split state House. Republicans seized power anyway.
Even when Republicans have a lot of power, it often will not be enough,

the 'they're all corrupt, nothing matters' attitude is one of the reasons Russia is a godawful place and it's very worrying how much it's spreading in the United States
Since the “at their core, do they really *believe* in anything?” question is also leveled at the Democrats our core problem may be that a broad enough swath of the public believes that politics is all Kayfabe so why not vote for the most cynical bastard who promises to hurt your perceived enemies.

Trump talked extensively about denoting antifa, which is not an organization and the right cannot define, a “terrorist organization” during his first term, so it’s hard to see how this wouldn’t result in making it possible to destroy every vaguely left-aligned nonprofits.
