I don’t think I’m being alarmist. If anything, I worry that we’ve become so inured to Trump’s madness that we’re not alarmist enough.

Trump didn’t just know Epstein. He attended the parties repeatedly. Repeatedly.

At the very least, he knew what was going on.

Average household heating costs are up 9.2% from last year, on top of rising electricity costs.

Meanwhile, Trump gutted a program that helps low-income people heat their homes and is boosting construction of power-hungry AI data centers.

What happened to lowering prices on Day One?

Even if the Senate voted to extend ACA subsidies, the GOP-controlled House is unlikely to allow a vote on them.

And there's of course no guarantee that Trump would even go along with a deal.

The cruel irony is that this will end up hurting Republican states the most.

If they wanted us to be engaged, active citizens, they would provide civic education which has not existed in the USA since the 1960s. Literally, RIGHT after the Civil Rights Act & Voting Rights Act were passed, civic education disappeared. This was NOT by accident. It was by DESIGN.

Since January, Trump's Treasury has quietly gutted enforcement of the corporate alternative minimum tax — a huge boon for big business and wealthy investors.

Meanwhile, he's led an all-out assault on Medicaid, SNAP, and other programs that help the poor.
