They’re helping him by hiding him from all but his most fervent voters, and they’re not wrong. Imagine that.

Is this what they mean when they say, “I voted for his policies”? Bc if it is, they voted for racism, bigotry, idolatry, ethnic cleansing, corruption, insurrection, and all the rest of it. They weren’t deceived. They knew. They chose. They are as bad as we said. There is no compromise with that.

Trump’s tax cuts – and botched tariffs – will add $1.2 trillion to federal deficits over the next 5 years. My @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social Chart

i think cox should spend less time weeping about polarization and more time working to convince his co-partisans not to abandon pluralism and liberal democracy

As Jon Meacham said, they want forgiveness without repentance, but it doesn’t work that way. @9:00, ff And as Julia Ioffe said, It IS personal, and you know that if you’re a person being hurt by the purposefully hateful policies and actions. @10:00, ff youtu.be/Y0kW96oW9Rc

Jfc. I’ve said it too many times to count. The state has no legitimate reason to execute prisoners no matter what they did. It is neither necessary nor efficient to serve any government interest. And when you can’t even pull it off after two attempts, wtf are we doing here?

Pretty clear to me there’s a very good case against this man for mass murder, and I’m saying that in as measured a fashion as I can. He’s order the killing of 234 people under no plausible war or legal justification. I am skeptical he will ever face legal accountability for til his but he should.

Call congress and tell them to make healthcare accessible to our veterans again by allowing our civil servants to override AI and verify their ID. It’s the least we can do for them. You have one Rep and two Senators. Get in their ear about this, TODAY. (202) 224-3121

Caring for our veterans mean ALL of our veterans, including those who don’t have technology tools handy and those who can’t battle their way through an AI gauntlet. AI is a tool, not a substitute for humans helping humans or a way to reduce costs by discouraging patients.

I imagine a time when the overwhelming majority of the public will think this is worth impeaching and removing a President and ALL his appointees.

GAO, the agency tasked under the Impoundment Control Act with adjudicating impoundments, says as explicitly as possible the Donald Trump and Russ Vought’s pocket rescission is illegal. “The President may not force the expiration of budget authority Congress has already enacted and did not rescind.”

Every property owner in America pays a wealth tax: property tax. Rich people and their money aren’t special. They can do their part too. They’ll be fine, and so will the rest of us.

This is why you say no to the fascists the FIRST time (and every time) they propose a fascist budget surrendering control to their fascist benefactor, bc it’ll be too late to do it later.

He’s using tariffs to pretend he can afford to not tax the rich at reasonable rates but then he’s also promising to give you 4x as much as the tariffs that don’t pay for his tax cuts to begin with. He’s a conman and he always was and he always will be.
