Donald Trump promised to lower costs ON DAY ONE.

But here we are: The cost of groceries is up. The cost of health care is up. Your electric bill is higher. And it’s getting worse.

More MAGA accounts are being exposed as foreign agents. This is a huge scandal for X. Maybe this explains why the far right is finding it so difficult to stop drinking the kool aid.

Aftyn Behn just unleashed her final ad, “Shake Up”and it’s a call to rattle the halls of power.

8 days left to make history, defy the odds, and shake Washington awake. Her team is fighting to keep it on air through Election Day.

Step in. Fuel the push.

"Trump seems to revel in getting away with speaking to women as president in ways that would land him on the sidewalk back in Queens." (@radiofreetom.bsky.social's parentheticals are the best.)
This is a new and dire development in the ongoing American constitutional crisis. The voters, Congress, and, yes, the U.S. military must all now be more vigilant than at any time in our modern history.

Say what you will, but Biden was always careful to point out that people were still struggling whenever he reported positive economic news. Equating him to Trump's full blown gaslighting operating is insane

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

There’s a whole lot of folks nervous about needing Maga voters. We don’t. They are about 30% of the Republican Party. We just need the previously apathetic voters to vote. Economics will help.

Look… I love a good political fantasy too.

Mine was the Roberts Court would uphold the Constitution and declare Trump ineligible to run.

"Look, the Fed can do a lot of things, but what it can't do is lower the price of imports. It can't make it so there are more workers for California farmers to help pick the crops." These are self-inflicted supply shocks, and the Fed can't magically undo them. (The White House can.)

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

as Phillips O'Brien also points out, this plan has been in negotiation for a long time, probably since Trump took office.

If the Republicans have decided that they want to die on the hill that troops should obey illegal orders and that encouraging them not to is a threat to Trump's defense policy, then I say let them.

To put a finer point on it: An "illegal order" is one that violates their oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States.

If you think that upholding the Constitution = sedition, well...you do the math.
Them: “You don’t have to obey illegal orders.”

Him: “That’s seditious! They should be hanged!”

Definitely not beating the giving-illegal-orders allegations.

Dang - how bad was the Border Patrol invasion in North Carolina?

None other than Thom Tillis himself is blasting DHS for gross overreach, and demanding lists of those detained, property damage caused by CBP agents, and their plan for restitution.

I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane, been shot at dozens of times by anti-aircraft fire, and launched into orbit — all for my country. I never thought I'd see a President call for my execution.

Trump doesn’t understand the Constitution, and we're all less safe for it.
