This is mass murder on a scale we haven't seen in generations. Trump did this. Musk did this. The SCOTUS that allowed these cuts to congressionally mandated programs and an acquiescent @GOP did this. It's sickening.

Trump really is vile.

IMPORTANT 🚨🚨 Republicans were virtually wiped out tonight in Virginia. Not only did they lose the Gov, Lt. Gov and AG races, the Democrats flipped 14 seats in the House. Voters were sending a message tonight.

Obama: It is not as if we didn't see some of this coming. I will admit it is worse than even I expected, but I did warn you all. I did. You can run the tape.  And by the way, he warned you too, because he said what he would do. But the fact is there were plenty of people who

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY TODAY - 72 - and all I want for my birthday is for you to RETWEET THIS VIDEO!

We’ve replaced science with social media science. No data. No peer review. No accountability. Junk studies go viral. Real scientists get buried. We’re not debating ideas anymore - we’re drowning in noise. This isn’t progress. It’s the death of reason, live-streamed for likes.

Human societies can't meaningfully 'prepare' for anything, because it requires a high degree of strategic planning and investment with no immediate gratification. Then, when the event is well managed, those who managed it are vilified for 'over reacting' and crying wolf. Our

Louisiana just announced it will use $150M in state funds to keep SNAP going for a few days in November. It’s being framed as “leadership.” But it’s not. It’s a desperate workaround in a collapsing system, one that tells us where Trump’s federal policy is really headed. 🧵

On a single Saturday in September: --Trump instructed his AG to go after specific political enemies. --We learned that his DOJ ended an investigation into his border czar, who was caught on camera taking a $50k cash bribe. --His Pentagon top brass threatened to expel

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

President Trump and I agree: vaccines save lives. If a mom wants to get a lifesaving hepatitis B vaccine to protect her newborn, she should be able to get it. The proposed ACIP recommendation could have put that access at risk, making it harder for that mom or that parent to

Trump and Vance bought shares in a company that buys farmland (foreclosed) 3 months ago. So did Lutnick, Bessent, and a few others. Cool game, huh??

🚨 The Fed’s worst nightmare is here: Stagflation. Growth is stalling, unemployment is rising, and inflation is still sticky. And today’s payrolls confirmed it: just 22,000 jobs were added in August. (a thread)

America’s secret economic weapon has never been oil, tech, or cheap capital. It’s the rule-of-law premium: the trust that here, contracts mean something, courts are impartial, and power has guardrails. This administration is cashing it out.

Hey MAGA. You laugh because you think you're safe from all of this racism, and death, and destruction. But you're wrong. Trump will come for you too. It's both predictable and inevitable. Know how I know? Because I currently live in Normandy, not far from the D-Day beaches. 1/x

https://t.co/y4k9DtkbAQ The U.S. has been downgraded from a “full democracy” to merely a “flawed democracy,” or even an “anocracy,” a synecdoche of democratic erosion where autocratic impulses co-opt democratic forms. Public faith in democratic institutions is collapsing.
