Trump says we need to go after drug cartels.

Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on.

And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking.

Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy.

It's a power grab.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

QUESTION: If prices are down and not up because of tariffs — why is Bessent saying they’re going to lower tariffs on coffee, bananas, etc to lower prices? 🤔

ANSWER: Because they are lying. Tariffs are a tax on you, and prices are UP.

for over four months I’ve reported as Trump has put troops and federal agents in cities across America. more than ever I’m seeing and hearing from people pushing back — standing up for immigrants, democracy and members of our military who don’t want this.

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance.

Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn.

We have been sent here to fight for people.
AOC: I think there's two things that are happening at once: One, there absolutely is an unprecedented abuse of power, destruction of norms, erosion of our government and our democracy in order to prop up an authoritarian style of governance

However, they are weaker than they look…

Government shutdowns are manufactured hostage rises where politicians cash checks while others suffer. It’s deliberate sabotage. We didn’t even have shutdown until Reagan triggered the first one. I have always refused to participate in the horserace-style shutdown coverage.

Trump’s “speech” to the UN today was absolutely humiliating. Something is very wrong with him, and a 72 hour psych hold seems more appropriate than the nuclear codes.

Let me tell you about one teacher in particular who changed my life forever.
