Things the president of the United States said on meet the press today:

He doesn’t know if he has to follow the constitution

He’s fine with a recession

Americans can do with less

Small businesses are just “a couple of little businesses”

Are retailers allowed to say the reason why when store shelves are empty, or would that be a “hostile and political act”?

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:

—Pioneering cancer researcher;
—*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
—Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
—"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.

Read it.

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them
Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

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

My daughter’s first day of school, took months of advocacy work to get here. Lots of IEP meetings, countless emails and forms and paperwork, even court mediation. But it was all worth it to get her the support she needs at school!

I am only donating to Democrats who have the courage to fight like Booker, Ossoff, Chris Murphy, etc. Otherwise the overall @democraticpartybot.bsky.social will not get a cent from me unless they organize and STAND UP TO TYRANNY

I’m speaking up on behalf of my daughter who relies on services like Medicaid and the Department of Education. Every day I wake up and see more and more of her rights being stripped away.

Wonder if Elon could survive a week on the salary we make. While he burns through $8 million a day, the working class struggles—yet he paints us as the enemy.
