Trump’s Fury at Gavin Newsom Backfires—and Reveals His Own Weakness
The media has it wrong. Trump is not coming across as fearsome and strong. Instead, his watch-me-play-fascist-on-TV routine is self-evident overkill.

Do you know the difference between “$2 trillion” and “$150 billion”? About $2 trillion.

The purpose of these tariffs is to be able to lift them to those who bow down to him and sacrifice their dignity. That is what he did to the GOP, the billionaires, and is doing now to Big Law. Those who stand up will be punished, those who bend a knee and humiliate themselves will be rewarded.

This is the beginning of a massive fall of MAGA.
No amount of division, fear mongering, lies, and cheap lines will overcome the fact that you just took many people’s prosperity just because it makes you feel powerful.
Mark my words, the beginning of the end.

And this is why Due Process is required so people can challenge their designation and the govt shd *welcome* shouldering its burden to establish that it’s right.
NEW: @aclu.org obtained ICE's "Alien Enemies Act Validation Guide," confirming all it takes to be sent to rot in prison in El Salvador is being Venezuelan and 1) having a tattoo an ICE officer says is a "gang tattoo" and 2) displaying "logos," "symbols" or clothes an ICE officer says are gang signs.

Oh, I think I know the answer. Is it— … lemme think here … —because they’re making s**t up?
Trump says he can invoke the wartime Alien Enemies Act of 1798 because the nation is at “war” w/Venezuelan gangs. At yesterday’s House hearing on the newly published Annual Worldwide Threats Assessment, Rep. Castro asked a blunt question: Why is there no mention of it the official threat assessment?

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

🚨 UPDATE: After humiliating the U.S. on the world stage, Trump just jetted off to Florida—to golf.
He’s now spent 35% of his presidency on vacation, burning through $20M+ in taxpayer dollars. The laziest "president" in U.S. history.

Putin will pocket Trump’s naive concessions and demand much more. Appeasement makes a wider war more likely, not less.

Donald Trump, JD Vance, and Elon Musk have made clear who they are. Only fools - or Kremlin tools - would abandon NATO, side with Russia, and demand Ukraine surrender in the face of Putin’s brutal aggression.

Have you heard about the SAVE Act? It's the newest effort at voter suppression by the House GOP & it's important for all of us. If you're a married woman or someone who doesn't have their birth certificate/passport handy, you're especially going to want to see this. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

@maddow.msnbc.com not sure if you mentioned this but Telsa charging stations can only charge Tesla's, and they are developing an adapter that non Tesla EV owners can buy to allow charging at Tesla stations. Increasing his monopoly more.
