Amazon planned to show customers how the tariffs were impacting their charges for products, but the White House went ballistic at the idea. Guess they’re afraid of the truth! Bezos backed down, making a story that encapsulates much of what’s wrong AF these days. Link to my piece below.

Am I depressed because of what's happening or am I depressed because of the people who somehow didn't see it coming?

Both. It's both.

You may be fearing your 401k is no longer enough for you to retire. But with all the cuts to NIH and Medicare you also won't live as long. So the policies are integrated.

Fear has a way of being contagious.

People I see on e-bikes:
- Seniors staying active and living their best life.
- Moms, dads and kids actually enjoying the school run.
- People getting groceries or running errands
- Service workers commuting on an affordable vehicle

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.

11,000 people showed up.

Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

Once you establish that people can be punished because the administration doesn't like their speech, expanding the bounds of who can be treated that way becomes inevitable.

I’ve had three conversations this week with friends feeling threatened enough to consider uprooting their whole lives, because of their gender identity or where they were born.

And members of the US Senate want us to sympathize with what a tough choice it was to surrender last week? Please.

On the subject of people traveling to the US right about now: Fuck, if I were from another country and I didn't need to come, I sure as hell wouldn't, the current administration has made it clear traveling here isn't safe, and why not take them at their word, there's a whole world to visit

Trump now says he was “being a little bit sarcastic” when he repeatedly promised to end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours.

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up.

Tomorrow is the cloture vote.

KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️

Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill.

Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.
🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

We believe that all people—regardless of nationality, immigration status, or political affiliation—deserve equal rights and due process under the law. The Fifth Amendment of the US Constitution guarantees that “No person shall be… deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.”

This is how authoritarian regimes test the waters. The first disappearance is a warning. If no one fights back, the next one comes easier. And the one after that. Until fear replaces resistance.

Now, imagine this happening to you. Would anyone fight for you?

There is a real, genuine 1st Amendment crisis in the United States right now.

The government is openly retaliating against anyone with a viewpoint it doesn't like: Pro-Palestinian protesters, law schools teaching Black History, pro-immigration public service loan forgiveness seekers.

Bernie Sanders led another massive rally in Warren, Michigan on Saturday after his packed Kenosha rally on Friday. He is filling venues with more people than Trump during the campaign. Corporate media refuses to cover it. We cover the full speeches. Here is in Michigan youtu.be/4-oTojJgaFI?...
