JD Vance and Donald Trump give themselves an “A + + + + +” on the economy. Americans disagree.
Across the country, people are speaking out and sharing how they’re struggling under Trump’s disastrous economy. Watch @ofthebraveusa.bsky.social:

AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

This is getting lost: For weeks Trump officials had the option to remove Abrego Garcia to Costa Rica, but refused to do so. Instead they kept trying to send him somewhere more dangerous. Costa Rica wasn't cruel and dehumanizing enough.
This is deeply sick conduct.

In a very real way, Rob Reiner's run through the 1980s and 1990s defined what I thought "movies" were. Master of the basic cable classic. He was just insanely versatile. Funny, sweet, dark, and, occasionally, sad: he was one of the greats. RIP. www.thebulwark.com/p/rob-reiner...

A beautuful thread about Rob Reiner.
I’m just going to tell the story. Back in 2000 I was volunteering for the Gore campaign when he came along with Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Alfre Woodard and Dule Hill to a GOTV event here in MN. He ended up sitting down across from me stuffing his envelopes.
