20 ARMED men bust into your home. They claim they’ve got a search warrant.

They make you stand in the rain w/your 3 daughters in their underwear.

They seize your phones, laptops, your cash life savings.

The suspects listed on the warrant? They don’t live there anymore.

Wait. Have @doge and Elon just been pulling numbers from usaspending.gov ?

Then releasing it as if they discovered it ?

Brilliant if true. Absolutely brilliant. Fooled me.

Very Trump like too.

Any usaspending.gov experts out there that can tell us ?

Trump hasn't done a lick to address rising grocery costs despite campaigning to bring them down on "day one."

And his CDC deleted reports on the spread of bird flu, which is driving up egg prices.

But don't worry, he just promised an executive order to bring back plastic straws.

Between killing USAid and the trade wars he is starting, The Trump Regime has cost farmers 10 billion dollars in rice, grain and bean sales over the next 4 years. Wait until farmers learn not only has the Trump Regime done this but is actively advocating for South African Farmers at the same time.

It rly pisses me off that the left is not propagandizing like Nazis are. We should be spreading propaganda flyers and posters advocating for solutions that will actually improve people’s lives and let them see what a sham race based solutions are and how dangerous they are as well

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?

100%? 500%?

Try 1,085%

Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

CEOs at top US companies saw their pay skyrocket by 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay only increased by 24%

Adeel Mangi would have been the first Muslim judge on a federal appeals court but for Republicans' relentless Islamophobic attacks and Democrats' failure to defend him from them

I wrote about a remarkable letter Mangi published Monday in which he defended himself

You can tell the media is having a tough time humanizing the dead healthcare CEO because they're doing the same thing they do to try to make people care about dead women: define them by their kids and spouse. He's a father and a husband!!

There are roughly 330M people in this country, and I realized this morning that for less than the cost of a cheap cup of coffee a day, a S. African billionaire was able to buy the Presidency, and in effect — the country. It’s both embarrassing and sad that, not only was it easy, but it was so cheap…

It’s not complicated.

Redistricting happened and removed every majority-Black neighborhood, as well as the largest blue suburb… securing her seat for as long as she wants it.
