To George and Laura, Bill and Hillary — we're grateful for your friendship, counsel, and devotion to this country. And to Joe and Jill, thank you for being on this journey with us.
Undermining the Fed to get lower rates now is like ripping the batteries out of your smoke alarm because it’s beeping. It’s quiet for a bit. Then your house burns down. Credibility anchors expectations; expectations anchor inflation.
Troops don’t improve communities —jobs do. Troops don’t keep youth out of trouble; that’s the role of local “violence interrupters” (like the ones Biden paid for — and Trump just defunded). A soldier is trained to shoot people — plain and simple. Soldiers are not trained to solve or prevent crimes. They are not trained to turn around wayward lives. In fact, a national guardsman from a red state in a blue city may not be able to tell gang leader from a basketball coach. So yes — we do need federal help to continue bringing crime down. But the way to do that is to empower LOCAL people to do more of what has started to work over the past few years. Trump’s approach is the opposite of that.
A leader who loses his composure over a satirical cartoon exposes his own fragility. True strength lies in absorbing criticism, even mockery, without letting ego dictate reaction. When a president is seething at South Park, it says more about his insecurity than the joke itself.
Whew. I have never seen a more brutal takedown of Trump’s cabinet than Pete Buttigieg here. No academic, high-brow rhetoric. Just simple, vivid language that everyone can understand & get behind. A masterclass from Pete. Watch this.

I love my country with all my heart and I've never been more embarrassed for America than the spectacle I just witnessed in the Oval Office.
Zelensky is fighting for the survival of his country, his people and their democracy.
Trump and Vance appear to be completely aligned with Putin, the invader whose aim has been to conquer Ukraine.
Zelensky should know that millions and millions of Americans still stand with him and his valiant people.
BREAKING: Donald Trump is reportedly furious because his latest threats to leave NATO have backfired as European leaders are proposing to replace the US in NATO with Ukraine, start curb stomping Russia all together, and then make Trump utterly irrelevant in all the negotiations.
BREAKING: Horror story hits the news as a toddler, mother, and grandmother are hauled off to an immigration detention center by Trump's goons because they were speaking Spanish — even though they're American citizens.
This is the worst case scenario...
According to a report from Telemundo Puerto Rico, the three innocent Americans were detained in Milwaukee and dragged off by U.S. officials.
A member of their family stated that they were minding their own business, shopping at a department store when they were detained. Their request to speak to officers was denied until they arrived at the detention center.
"My sister, speaking in English, explained that, not only are they American citizens, but that they are from Puerto Rico, they were born in Puerto Rico," said the family member. The individual spoke anonymously to Telemundo out of fear for their family.
The detained mother eventually produced documents including birth certificates, at which point the officials became apologetic — presumably because they're afraid of a lawsuit.
"I’m so sorry," said one official.
The family was then forced to call and pay for a ride from the facility, putting even more unfair strain on them.
It's still unclear which agency detained them, since ICE's mass detainment and deportation operations are being aided by U.S. Marshals, the DEA, and the FBI.
Please retweet and ❤️ if you think that the family should sue the Trump administration immediately — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.
