Trump: We’re going to make the American Dream a word that—two words that you didn’t have. Remember when Biden said it’s all about three words: The American Dream. You don’t ever want to get in that situation.

This whole NYT account about the weaponization of DOJ is beyond disturbing. Kinda feels like the US government fell in January.

It’s the hottest economy in history with $21 trillion coming in.

Also: we need the Fed to cut rates and “prop up this economy.” 🤪

The DOT also reportedly plans to rescind requirements that airlines disclose junk fees. It's also planning to redefine what flight cancellations would require refunds for passengers.

Both Delta and United gave $1 million to the Trump inauguration fund.

Everything is for sale.
BREAKING: The Trump administration is officially withdrawing a Biden-era plan to require airlines to pay passengers cash compensation when flight disruptions are caused by the airlines.

The question everyone is asking right now is this: NYT had deep access into all of this in real time and reported none of it. Why? In consequence, no NYT reporting on this subject is trustworthy.

Dem gains in this week's elections erased the inroads Trump made with non-white, young, and low-income voters in 2024. In fact, the R-to-D shift from 24 to 25 is double Trump's gains from 20-24. Claims of a GOP political realignment have been highly exaggerated

It’s simple: If Donald Trump doesn’t like being sued, he needs to quit breaking the law. Whenever he does, Dem AGs will see him in court -- and win. @agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov

Hard truth: AI runs on electricity. China can now generate power for roughly 1/8 the US cost thanks to solar, wind & hydro.

After military retirement, I completed my education with the P9-11 GIB and the VA Vocational Rehabilitation Program. That bill made a great difference in my life because my original VEAP benefit was almost criminal in its mismanagement.

I will miss Nancy Pelosi's leadership.

Neither of my parents went to college. I graduated from Georgetown University without any debt and without paying a cent because of the Post-9/11 GI Bill, which Nancy Pelosi got passed over opposition from the Bush administration and congressional Republicans. She fought for us. And she won.

There was blood and broken glass, we didn't know how secure the grounds were, if there'd be more violence, people with weapons. They hadn't caught the bomber (still haven't). It didn't feel safe, but she was not going to let them derail the Congress and the election. She finished it by force of will

So many iconic Pelosi moments- ACA, IRA, ARRA, the '06 and '18 midterms... but for me it's the night of 1/6/21.

We were waiting to see how many days until they could return to the Capitol to finish certifying the election.

She told us, "tonight." I still tear up thinking about how that felt.

Maybe in case Trump forgets where he is?

“ABC7 spoke to Pertissue Fisher, a woman who lives in the building. She said ICE agents took everyone in the building, including her, and asked questions later….’They was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other.’”
