Almost no new jobs have been added since April and 710,000 more people are unemployed now compared to a year ago.
Meanwhile consumer prices are skyrocketing thanks to Trump's tariffs.
Does this sound like an "A+++++" economy to you?

Brett Kavanaugh's behavior during today's second oral arguments has been incredibly obnoxious and rude. He is so eager to kill a service member's lawsuit against a negligent government contractor that he keeps interrupting other justices, raising his voice, and getting emotional. Weird and erratic.

I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.

Trump notes the sound of construction of his new ballroom at the White House and says, "that's music to my ears. When I hear that sound, it reminds me of money. In this case it reminds me of lack of money because I'm paying for it."

If the Trump WH could just be honest with us for once & tell the truth about these “peace talks/deals” we could handle it. Tell us it’s going to be difficult with lots of things unresolved & pitfalls to navigate. Instead, because of Trump’s craving for praise, we get propaganda.

Federal agents hurled tear gas at people on a busy Logan Square street, outside a grocery store and near an elementary school.
Reckless, undertrained ICE hires are a danger to everyone. This is terrorism against US citizens.

You are living through the unthinkable: the president of the United States using the military to seize domestic power. The greatest crisis of executive power in American history, at the hands of the worst, most corrupt, and most unfit president in American history.
