This is part of the tragedy of a surrender now. It invites more pain and suffering by emboldening the regime. Why should they listen to a weak opposition?
Schumer and the Dems are about to teach Trump the lesson that they’ll cave whenever he abuses power to sufficiently hurt people.

You wouldn’t know it from much mainstream reporting, but here’s facts:
“Public opinion today is comparable to several past government shutdowns when Republicans have shouldered the bulk of the blame, including twice during Trump’s first presidential term.”

CEOs used to make like 20x the average worker.
In 2024, the average CEO earned 632x more.

The system is rigged.

Hey New Jersey! Energy bills are skyrocketing due to market forces and grid mismanagement, with more increases coming because of cuts in the Republican Big Ugly Bill.

THIS— This is the message:
Trump is battering DC with ICE agents and the National Guard while Zohran Mamdani holds a scavenger hunt in NYC and Mayor Michelle Wu dances at Carnival in Boston.

I ask you, what version of this country do you want to live in?

Imagine working for FEMA and trying to help those after disasters and rebuild communities, then the next day, you're the Gestapo now. If employees don't accept, they're toast.

Brought to you by NJ7’s very own Tom Kean,Jr. and his band of Republican colleagues too weak to stand up to this extreme President.
🚨 #SocialSecurity is on the chopping block. Thanks to Trump’s so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill,” retirees are now staring down $18,000-a-year benefit cut in just seven years. Seniors who paid in their whole lives are left holding the bag.
– $13,600 cut for a typical retired couple.
A new analysis projects a 24% cut to Social Security benefits by late 2032.
Trump's "big, beautiful bill" will cause sharp cuts to Social Security by late 2032, a new analysis says.

It's hard to process the historic level of horror and heartbreak here. That the U.S. is complicit in accelerating this genocide is a mix of depressing, infuriating, and shameful.
“As the Israeli government’s siege starves the people of Gaza, aid workers are now joining the same food lines, risking being shot just to feed their families. [H]umanitarian organisations are witnessing their own colleagues and partners waste away before their eyes.”

State Dep't officials asked who, exactly, can qualify for the Trump administration's South Africa refugee program.

The answer, emailed days later by a top department official, was that program is intended for white people.
