Chris Murphy on Joni Ernst: "I think everybody in that audience knows they're going to die, they would just rather die in old age at 85 or 90 instead of dying at 40. And the reality is that when you lose your healthcare, you are much more at risk of early death."

73% of mothers with kids under 18 are in the workforce. More than flowers or brunch, working moms need: -Paid family leave -Equal pay -Universal childcare (But get your mom flowers, too)
Crockett: I cannot wait until voters have an opportunity to say: You took food out of my mouth. You took a roof from over my head. You are responsible for making sure that I do not have health care. I'm going to make sure you don't have a job.
CBS on the cardinals: "One thing we know they're not doing is checking Instagram because their devices have all been confiscated. I believe the kids call it rawdogging."

It’s #EarthDay — but some folks still treat our planet like it’s disposable. Let’s be real: Black and Brown communities feel the impact of environmental neglect first and worst. I’m fighting for clean air, safe water, and a livable future for all of us.

Regarding the wealthy people who have entered positions of power in the US in an interview with CNN’s Abby Phillip, Melinda French Gates said, “I think we are seeing some of their true personalities come out in the last few years. I think this has always been in the undertone of lots of people.”
Trump’s regime ignores a SCOTUS ruling?!; Why did DOJ drop a major MS-13 case?; Will NC toss military votes in key Supreme Court race? Ben Meiselas & Michael Popok break it all down on Legal AF at 8p ET/5p PT. Don’t miss it.
"Furceri et al. (2020)... find that GDP tends to go down after a big tariff hike. And for very large tariff increases, the magnitude of the output decline increases as the years go by — the long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain." [@noahpinion.blogsky.venki.dev]

My family got these payments when my dad died at 34 years old after serving in the Navy for a decade from what he had paid in. I was five. Jeanine is an incurious ignoramus. Thanks @jessicatarlov.bsky.social for correcting her, which is God’s work.
Honestly, I don't even know what to say. This is literally perfect.
Love to see you fight for us!
Probably people with paranormal powers good at reading the mind of Trump and members of his inner circle. Or maybe just a lot of lucky people. I’m sure nobody leaked the announcement to anyone. That would be illegal.
Depravity index is booming
Every American has the right to health care, period. If you’re sick, you should be able to go to the doctor without being worried about the cost. Medicare for All is a solution for real change in our health care system. Thank you to everyone who is joining this fight.

Did you see the massive amount of 0DTE calls that were bought shortly before the tariffs were reversed? THEY INCREASED BY 2100%! www.reddit.com/r/unusual_wh...
RFK Jr. told me he would "address drivers of maternal mortality.” But he just fired the researchers that work to improve the health of mothers and babies.

There was a president who created record numbers of jobs, record levels of new factory startups, record levels of energy production, record levels of health insurance, and even record corporate profits. His name was Joe Biden. …
Or he is waiting to receive "gratuities" ala his executive order Pausing Foreign Corrupt Practices Act Enforcement
"The Executive branch may not seize individuals from the streets, deposit them in foreign prisons in violation of court orders, and then invoke the separation of powers to insulate its unlawful actions from judicial scrutiny," Roberts court disagrees. Totally disgusting.
It's fascinating to consider that the greatest impact on the economy all time could be achieved by Bessent bribing Trump with cheeseburgers.
let me guess: after sitting on the case for six months, John Roberts will rule that Donald Trump is a Very Special Boy who gets to clownfuck the Constitution any way he sees fit. we really do live in the shittiest timeline
@talibkweli.bsky.social i love your music. Thank you.
Are there any existing laws that can rein this in? What about the existing trade agreements that this is flying in the face of?
"Intellectually lazy" has to be the absolute kindest way to put it
You know EXACTLY what you were voting for when you voted for this convicted felon 📣
Trump is going to create the greatest depression the world has ever seen. People say the other depression was great, but when they see this depression they will say WOW!
“isn’t he a huge business success? Doesn’t he know what he’s talking about? No, he isn’t and no he doesn’t.”

This guy is going off about DOGE cutting the program to address first responders' health problems as a result of 9/11: "Some ignorant kids took their chain saw to a program...The unconscionable, disgusting, vile, repulsive, repugnant, malicious actions of DOGE is an atrocity..."
I hope you have puts, Kai!
Hopefully, he tells them to inject bleach first! His instincts! That's rich!
This Week on The Podcast: Catherine Rampell (@crampell.bsky.social) of WaPo & MSNBC gives her instant reaction to Trump's tariffs plan. If history (and the current stock market) is any indication, we're in for a painful road ahead. Listen to the episode: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/c...
I keep listening to your shows, but Stewart still hasn't shown up, Al!
I am sorry for your loss, brother.
Tim Walz: "It's not a 'woke policy' to provide food for children to get breakfast and lunch, and we get better outcomes from that. They defined things on their terms that weren't true ... we got timid."
Walz: "Remember, Donald Trump has statements about, 'I don't think nuclear war would be that bad.' I guess we're lucky that he went after tariffs instead of that route."
I called a MAGA to make fun of Trump for tanking the market and got called a communist! There is no such thing as cognitive dissonance amongst MAGA.
These motherfuckers are always smiling when they lie
Will contagion begin this week with the commercial bond market collapsing?
It's pretty funny hearing Republicans saying the market crash "might" affect the midterms. How long uni
Why doesn't she just launch a meme coin and then get money from Russia like all the other MAGAs? Is she stupid?
Millions of paid protestors but zero evidence OF PAY... oh that's right these stupid fucking MAGAs don't understand how to verify claims made by propagandists because they are that fucking STUPID
I saw these two elderly women early today in deep red Sarasota .. They were probably in their late 80s or early 90s ….sitting by themselves with their sandwiches and a sign that reads ….”NO KINGS” “USA IS NOT OK” Ask me what democracy looks like? THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE
MAGA needs to realize that this is just the beginning of the "injecting bleach"...
No way does he put tariffs on Mordor. They got him elected!
This is what every MAGA just doesn't understand. They think there is some grand plan to save them.
OK, time to switch to the timeline where Paul Wellstone is President.
What's the over/under for how many treasury secretaries Trump goes through?
There's a lot of people learning that being racist is expensive! I am sure they will "do their own research" on that one!
Look on the bright side, more days with fantastic obituaries!
How crazy would it have been if DOGE had put all of the social security budget in puts
Where's Christopher Walken?!
Illegitimate court.
This President has been convicted of not asking.

You are the best. Thank you for standing up for all of us!
Essentially, it is a poll of people's critical thinking abilities.
Free trip to Mars?
Weeeeeeee!

And history will repeat itself unless Republicans join us and stand up to these across the board tariffs.
Later, losers!
Like when the Dr is scheduled to remove an ingrown toenail but cuts off a leg.
Next stop, Pottersville!
Cancer looks out for its own
It seems as though there is absolutely zero critical thinking occurring. Is there a hill too far?
I wish I could show all of the MAGA people in my life to their younger selves before they turned into morons. I guess I will just settle for watching them sniff their own farts.
Can't wait to find out what else Tulsi has been talking about on Signal. Is this how she "accidentally" gives information to foreign threats?

Republicans have used public concern about Social Security’s future solvency as a cynical excuse to demand cuts in benefits. But Social Security could easily pay everything it will owe to everyone for the next 75 years if the cap on income subject to SS taxes were eliminated. Let me explain.
