WATCH— @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “We’re often told the only way to tackle the debt is on the backs of working people… not true. We can close billionaire tax loopholes + end this disastrous war… The debt exploded the last 30 years because of tax cuts for the rich and forever wars.”

📌Greg Abbott received a $7.4 million dollar judgement in 1985 when a tree fell on him putting him in a wheelchair. When he later ran for office, he was instrumental in passing tort reform laws capping insurance payouts for victims of accidents like his at $750,000. Enough of these horrible people.

He’s so damn good at this. Jon Ossoff came out swinging against Mike Collins in the Georgia Senate debate. “It’s not just that you’ve hired half the Third Reich to staff your congressional office … It’s that you’re robbing your constituents to subsidize your donors.” 🔥

There are new and specific numbers in this story, so it’s worth reading. I continue to resent the lack of credit to Nick Schwellenbach at @pogo.org, Dan Friedman at @motherjones.com, and me, who have previously reported every other aspect of this story, including that the sale prices were very high.

This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

Cannot emphasize enough, the president is both really stupid and a real asshole. I’m not sure which I find more offensive. That he’s such an asshole or that we’ve elected, are led and represented by someone so phenomenally stupid.

Trump is now threatening to report NBC’s Kristen Welker to the FCC for “rebuke or punishment” because she said his endorsements have had “mixed results.” He then calls on FCC Chair Brendan Carr to “take this Threat to our Country very seriously.” Truly psychotic and anti-American.

As a performer he was unparalleled - witty, charming, unnerving, and deeply funny. We will always consider it one of our greatest treasures to have been part of Long John Silver’s crew.

According to the right, if you teach that racism is an actual problem that needs to be studied and addressed, that is a bad thing. But if you teach that racism is an actual *solution* that needs to be taught and encouraged, well, that is a good thing, a very good thing indeed.

I want you to understand that they are jumping through all of these hoops to avoid tax bills that are, in many cases, $50 grand. Or $100k. Yes, to normal folks that is all the money in the world. But these people *routinely* spend that on weekend vacations. They would _definitely_ give it at a gala.
