Every country globally knows the play is to make life living hell for trump for the next 50 days and he’ll get put on a leash. Trump did this to himself.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. Big Tech buys off Congress. No action on AI safety. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Republicans hate Freedom. It’s that simple. They market themselves differently. Republicans have continuously expanded the amount of money allowed to be invested to control US elections since citizens United, which they also led. They have essentially bought control of the United States.

Sen. Durbin does what Bluesky demands, and instead of praise/thanks he gets dunked on more. It’s the way of (this tiny corner) of the world. But don’t forget: he invented the whole notion of Dreamers/DACA, and (I just found out!) is the person responsible for banning smoking in all public spaces.

Why aren't reporters asking EVERY REPUPLICAN CONGRESSMAN, why they let 1 man destroy the US dollar, and make the DEFICIT so much more expensive? Pausing tariff's won't cure the lack of trust. The entire financial market is based on TRUST. We need to explain this to people like they're 5.

Murphy: This is also a political tool for Trump. You see what he’s doing with these universities and law firms... I think it’s likely the same thing could happen with the tariffs: each big company or industry will have to come to Trump to get tariff relief in exchange for political loyalty…

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points. And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.

In recent years, Judge Boasberg has: - ordered the release of Hillary’s emails - ensured Trump’s tax returns never became public - restricted disclosure from the Mueller investigation - limited disclosure of grand jury material in the Trump classified docs case. The resistance, he ain’t.

1/🧵 Judges across ideological lines are ruling against Trump at strikingly similar rates (84% liberal, 86% centrist, 82% conservative). This isn't partisan opposition to Trump—it's the judiciary functioning as intended by cutting across partisan lines to uphold the Constitution.
Title: Both Liberal and Conservative Judges Rule Against Trump
Description: A scatter plot showing the rulings of judges against or in favor of Trump, categorized by ideology using the DIME score. The x-axis represents Judge Ideology (DIME Score), ranging from liberal (-1) to conservative (1), and the y-axis represents the case outcome (against or for Trump).
	•	Blue dots represent liberal judges, purple dots represent moderate judges, and red dots represent conservative judges.
	•	Some judges are labeled, including Rudolph Contreras, Lauren King, John Coughenour, and James Emanuel Boasberg on the liberal to moderate side, and Carl Nichols, Richard J. Leon, and Joseph N. Laplante on the conservative side.
	•	A note mentions that Boasberg, though slightly right-leaning, was initially appointed by George W. Bush.
	•	The visualization suggests that judges from both ideological backgrounds ruled against Trump.
