Happy Thursday! We are almost through the week! We had no sunrise today but there were some stellar colors to the north as the sun provided some beautiful backlighting on our behalf. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration.

So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives.

So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Presidents shouldn’t have the power to pardon anyone. It’s all so corrupt.

Disruption is all they seem to understand—so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

As more information is revealed, it is clear that the cover-up is even worse than the crime.

Every single person involved has no business being involved in our government.

At minimum, there should be resignations. And prosecutions.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

Mitch McConnell voting no on terrible cabinet picks because he doesn’t have to run for reelection is all the proof you need that we must have term limits. You shouldn’t only have a spine because you don’t have to run again. We are breeding chicken shit power hungry electeds.

It's not about lobbyists. It's about the politicians on this platform deciding to neuter DOGE by doing a better version of what DOGE wants to do. Legislatively.

The issue isn't the goal of efficiency and savings. That's important.

The issue is the process to get there.
Mark legitimately, what’s stopping you from hiring the lobbyists to get this done? I’ll donate but I’m just a millionaire, you’ve got the institutional money to help get this done

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.

You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?

Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.

You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

This brings Tesla’s average tax rate over the past three years to 0.4 percent.

Operation ICE Ride-Along isn’t going as planned. 🔥

Fox News tagged along with ICE, hoping for an exclusive look at “dangerous criminals.” Instead, they got a whole lot of nothing. No threats, no big arrests—just a community that wasn’t having it. The narrative is falling apart.

Some people have convinced themselves they're very clever because they've noticed Trump often says he wants to do a thing but doesn't end up doing it, and so they deem most things he says "distractions."

... but the most common reason he gives up is negative public reaction. It had to be fought.
I wince at people calling every single thing a distraction. Even if it is a distraction it’s still

1) a thing that is actually happening

2) a thing that is hurting people

3) a thing that also needs to be fought and illuminated

“It’s just a distraction”feels so dismissive.
Re: "distractions":

Most people I know are capable of paying attention to more than one thing at a time.

You're trying to decide for other people what they should or shouldn't focus on.

One person's distraction may be another person's health or safety.
