“I’m absolutely furious, because Donald Trump is very cavalier with other people’s lives. He loves pounding his chest and acting tough and talking about the costs of war, but he knows nothing about the cost of war.”
@RepJasonCrow, a former Army ranger who served in Iraq & Afghanistan, reacts after President Trump tells the New York Times that American casualties could be “quite a bit higher.”
Tim Walz dropping out of the race for a third term is the direct result of Republican threats to kill his entire family after they had already murdered one of his state’s representative and her husband. — Anyone still believe both parties are the same?
Back in the day, if it was learned that Oil executives were briefed on a major military operation before Congress, it would be a MAJOR scandal.
How is this not a BIGGER story?
Trump’s billionaire allies now control X, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, TikTok, Truth and Twitch.
They own Fox News, CBS, WaPo, WSJ and NY Post — plus 185+ local tv stations and news in 100 markets.
They control the AI you're asking for answers, the algorithms feeding you content, your personal data you've given up for access, and the devices you rely on.
The news and your privacy are now what Trump and his billionaire pals say it is.
This is all by design.
In his first presser after the operation, Trump mentioned the word 'oil' a dozen times but did not say the word 'democracy' once. That tells you everything about the priorities on display, and this must change. Clip @PsakiBriefing. More on my Substack https://t.co/SdY0bDV2Zb
BREAKING: The Trump admin confirms he is freezing $10,000,000,000.00 in funds for child care in five blue states.

BREAKING: BREAKING: 2016 video of Pete Hegseth exposes staggering hypocrisy: He said the military must refuse unlawful orders, the very stance he is now punishing Sen. Kelly for taking.
Make sure everyone sees this.

RETWEET if you stand with @CaptMarkKelly against Hegseth!
Trump says it's an A++++ economy. He's right. His billionaire friends have never had it better.
If you're a working class person:
👉60% live paycheck to paycheck
👉Grocery prices at record highs
👉Premiums to double for 20+ million
The economy must work for all, not just the 1%
The mass deportation of undocumented people was one of Hitler’s largest coercive policies before the war. This set off a chain of events which can give us a useful perspective on where we are now.

BREAKING: Trump is now selling “Trump Gold Cards” for one million dollars per person and two million per corporation. The perk? A government vetting that usually costs fifteen thousand dollars.
This is pay to play corruption on steroids.
Mark Zuckerberg is building a data center in Louisiana that will use 3x more electricity than all of New Orleans.
Oligarchs want YOU to pay for these data centers with higher water & electric bills.
Americans must fight back against billionaires who put profits over people.
There is no question about it: Alito, Thomas, Roberts, and the three Trump Supreme Court appointees are all GOP partisan hacks.
Pass term limits. Expand the court. Enact an enforceable code of ethics.
We must keep pushing Democrats to enact court reform.
Last night, tragically, 8 Democrats caved.
But the struggle continues.
Short term, we must not allow health care premiums to double for more than 20 million Americans.
Long term, we must provide health care to all as a human right.
Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.
A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.
When will party leadership learn this lesson?
