Omfg. @laurapackard.com pointed this out on Facebook.

The Trump tariff formula which economists like @justinwolfers.bsky.social have called "muddled nonsense" may have come from Grok or ChatGPT.

We have a government of lazy students.

Trump’s new tariff math looks a lot like ChatGPT’s
ChatGPT may be the White House’s latest economic advisor.

Today, my son Sam and I showed Speaker Johnson why you don't mess with moms.

Thanks to overwhelming bipartisan support, we stopped the Speaker’s attempt to kill our resolution to allow new parents in Congress to vote remotely.

Thank you to everyone who stood with us today.

Dear God help us.
Iran declares its armed forces have readied missiles with the capability to strike US-related positions.

This report comes in response to Trump’s threats of “bombing the likes of which they have never seen before” if Tehran does not agree to a new nuclear agreement.

Goldberg: "Hegseth is promising that US warplanes are taking off in 30 minutes to bomb enemy targets that we know are protected by anti-aircraft batteries. If that's not the most sensitive information, the most secret info in the world, I simply don't know what the meaning of 'classified' is."

The Democrats should simply tag-team to read Amy Coney Barrett's Supreme Court opinion dismissing Schmitt's case. He got knocked down quite soundly. The decision on standing was based on the substance of the case & made clear there was no there there. 1/
Happy Tuesday! Sen Eric Schmitt, formerly AG of Missouri, is about to host a hearing on the "Censorship Industrial Complex" in the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Schmitt is the bullshitter who brought Missouri v Biden. He continues to pretend, for some reason, that SCOTUS didn't toss that case. 🤔

Republican Cuts Hurt Veterans
Our Veterans have selflessly served, protecting us at great personal risk. They deserve the mental and physical support earned through their sacrifice. Yet, Musk and Trump have betrayed them by slashing the funding they rely on for the help they’ve rightfully earned.

‼️ This week’s assignment!

Call your congressman this week, ESPECIALLY if they’re Republican, and tell them that you demand they vote Yes for this bill. and that you are not OK with Trump.

And, if you’re still on Twitter, go comment the same message to them.

It’s time for good trouble, yall

This STINK over our constitution.
“My GOP colleagues must look at what is right in front of them – from nominees who won’t follow court orders to the firing of dedicated FBI agents. They need to act, not continue to acquiesce to the President.”

I assume Musk will take Vance's seat next to Trump's Little Johnson tonight
Under DOGE, Elon Musk is becoming remarkably efficient at stealing from everyday Americans to enrich greedy billionaires and corporations.

No agencies are safe. Despite Trump's campaign promises, Musk and his hatchmen are coming for your Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
