Himes: I have a theory on how this ends…
You’re going to see oil go across $100… Projections for economic growth are going to go down.
And at some point in 3-5 weeks, the president is going to say this is really not tenable. And he’s going to declare victory and walk away.
Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.
What's required is investment in working people — and better wages.
When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.
Remember this.
Pretty sure that’s ai generated video. Real life footage would support your point much better.
EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war.
The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints.
One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

Q: "Do you think Trump should be deposed by this committee?"
HILLARY: "Absolutely. Trump has been held civilly liable for sexual assault by a jury of his peers. That is behavior that fits a pattern."
“It’s an unbelievably complex subject. Nobody knew that war could be so complicated.”
“Every Republican president comes to office, cuts benefits for the poor, cuts taxes for the rich, raises prices, and then bombs a Middle East country.”
@mehdirhasan.bsky.social explains how Trump’s ‘anti-war’ campaign was a lie, noting the president has bombed seven countries in his second term.
“If Kamala wins, only death and destruction await because she is the candidate of endless wars. I am the candidate of peace. I am peace.” - Trump, 11/1/24
“I’m not going to start a war, I’m going to stop wars.” - Trump, 11/5/24
The Peacetime President, self-appointed chair-for-life of the Board of Peace, recipient of the 1st(and only) FIFA Peace Prize, joining with Israel to start another forever war in the Middle East. Where are the chants of “Genocide Don”?
It Can Now Be Plainly Said: Trump Is Planning a November Coup d’État
Here's another thing to add to your list of reasons to hate billionaires in general and Elon Musk in particular (thread):
The bigotry in this move is astonishingly blatant, but I can't help but feel that this is also a test-run for suppressing the vote of other minority communities as well.
Never forget this: The forces undermining our democracy, rigging our economy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win.
Rep. Massie: “I've not seen any arrests from the revelations in the Epstein files…Over two dozen people have resigned, CEOs, members of government worldwide. But I haven't seen any arrests or investigations here in the United States from this DOJ.”

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.
“I’ve never protested before - but I just watched 4th & 5th grade kids run away from our own government.” 😕🇺🇸💔

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.
Khanna: There were two rounds of redactions. There was the original FBI redactions… and they did a second round of redactions at the DOJ. What they’re showing members now is the unredacted version of the DOJ’s redactions—not the original FBI redactions. They’re in blatant violation of the law.

What Saturdays are for.
The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.
FBI seizing ballots and election records from a Georgia election office isn’t normal law enforcement. Nor is it normal for the Director of National Intelligence to be involved.
If the DOJ can be used to relitigate a settled election, it can be weaponized in every future one. This is not democracy.
Rand Paul is saying the correct things now, but remember this is the same guy who wouldn’t go on the record to say if he would have voted yes for the Civil Rights Act.
Across America and the world, people are realizing it’s not possible to appease America’s dictator.
The only way to deal with him is to stand up to him — and the only way to stand up to him is by joining together against him.
It's time for a massive general strike across the country.
Please share. 💔
Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.
In the spirit of Dr. King, we must respond to ICE's tyranny with peaceful, mass civil disobedience across America.
I stand with the people of Minnesota and other cities across the country who are doing that today.
They think all average working people are as dumb as their maga base
