I have an idea: since it appears trump is going the way of his father fred, why not just have one of his aides tell him we invaded Canada, took over Greenland, and are currently battling it out in Panama? Show him battlefield photos from WWII?
I'm telling you, it will work.

If you feel like being inspired by a big law firm, here's the opening to Sussman Godfrey's lawsuit against Trump and his executive order targeting the firm. It still is amazing other firms caved quickly to Trump's mob-like and unconstitutional shakedown.

The most important thing you must share today.

Trump is destroying your life savings and ability to make a living for 1 reason: he wants to make us all beggars who bow to him, his donors and his family.

Not sure why @chrismurphyct.bsky.social hasn’t posted this here but can’t be posted enough.

Criminalizing masks does NOT make New Yorkers safer. It puts our health at risk, enables racist enforcement, exiles some people with disabilities from society

Privatization you say? And it's not just Social Security. It's the VA, Medicare, Medicaid, the Postal Service, schools, the police, prisons, NASA, scientific research... They want to privatize everything.
Bernie Sanders: "I think this is a prelude not only to cutting benefits, but to privatizing Social Security ... why do you lie so much about Social Security? Why do you make it look like it's a broken system? The reason is to get people to lose faith in the system so you can give it over to Wall St"

Republicans snuck a provision into the rule for the CR that would preemptively surrender congressional authority to block tariffs.

When House Republicans vote for this rule today, they will also be voting to support Trump's tariffs and all the resulting damage to the US economy

My question is whether Wall Street understands that an important segment of the EV market customer base will not buy a Tesla at any price. It could teleport me places and I would not buy it. I would not drive one if you gave it to me for free.
“.. Tesla is on track for its worst day since July 24, 2024, when it fell 12.33%. Tesla has erased nearly $800 billion in market value since its record close on December 17, 2024.”
