According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.
Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

We could have been fighting for UBI instead of fighting to keep our neighbors from being disappeared. We could have been housing the unhomed in places where they had access to basic services instead of deporting people to foreign death camps. We could have done so much better.
Why? Just... why?

NEW: Report from the nonpartisan Yale Budget Lab finds that, despite trade ‘deals’ with China and the UK, Trump’s tariffs will still cost American families $2,800 more this year.
It’s the highest tariff tax in nearly 100 years.

This is the biggest, underreported news right now. Republicans are trying to STEAL an election in North Carolina. Straight up. This is a test case for 2026 and 2028. They will never voluntarily give up power again.
Bombshell in North Carolina: the state's GOP-dominated Court of Appeals just sided with the GOP candidate in last year's supreme court race.
Their decision would toss roughly 60,000 ballots (!) that have been counted, & likely hand the election to GOP instead of incumbent Dem Justice who won it.

"Persons being deported may be sent to countries other than their countries of origin" is INSANE
Oh my God. The email contains an implied threat that any student who doesn’t immediately leave might be sent to El Salvador.
/technically it says “countries other than their countries of origin,” but the context right now, given everything going on, makes the threat clear.

AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.
Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

Truth is rarely spoken by Kremlin insiders on Russian TV. But this is truth.
On Kremlin TV, Putin intimate Solov'yov says Russia so encouraged by Trump taking their side no longer see need for ceasefire.
"No, there won’t be any ceasefire. Our idea of peace is everything happening as we see fit”
Then plays a clip of Vance slamming Ukraine.
Vance is "our man" he says.
