Yes. It’s time to tax the rich.
Holy shit. Trump’s tariffs are going to cost each family $5000.
Watch Pete Buttigieg roast Republicans with FACTS:
“If you’re a billionaire like most of Trump’s cabinet or a multi-millionaire like most of Congress…this may not be your problem. But for everyone else this is a big deal, a bad one.”

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.
The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.
Ask yourself—what’s going to stop the government from deporting you to a prison in El Salvador?
How would you prove it’s an error if you don’t have due process? If it can happen to anyone, it can happen to you.
The people get it. Either everyone has due process—or nobody does.
We were having tea with my mother-in-law the other day and out of the blue she said, “I’ve decided I want to be cremated.” I said, “Alright, get your coat.”
BREAKING: In a bizarre moment, RFK Jr. exposes his own warped beliefs that autistic children will "never pay taxes, never hold a job...never use a toilet unassisted." This is the Health and Human Services Secretary.
This is insane.

Stephen Miller is another unelected despot with a hyper inflated sense of self importance, unbounded by morality and ethics
On his road to becoming Goebbels
THIS IS A TEST:
What is due process; who is afforded due process; is it a partisan thing or an American thing?

President Trump's attempt to fire two independent @FTC commissioners is an attack on the agency's essential work fighting consumer fraud, online scams & business monopoly.
More than 200 Congressional Democrats are saying 'hell no.' The President has no right to destroy the FTC.
Trump is tanking the economy—and Americans are taking note.
– 60% disapprove of Trump’s handling of inflation
– 75% say Trump’s tariffs will raise prices in the near term
– Only 21% say his economic policies are helping.
A stunning bipartisan rejection.

This just in from @AP: "We are deeply disappointed that the administration has chosen to restrict the access of all wire services, whose fast and accurate White House coverage informs billions of people every single day, rather than reinstate The AP to the wire pool." More >>>
Seems like a good day to remind everyone that Auschwitz — a complex of over 40 concentration and extermination camps — was not located in Nazi Germany either.
History teaches us that the way to stand up to a dictator is to fight back against him, not capitulate to him.
Surrendering to tyranny invites more of it.
This moment we're in should not be met with a "moderate" response.
Luckily, some Democrats starting to understand this.
