This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

Social Security is not charity. People pay into it their entire working lives. Donald Trump and Elon Musk want to rip it away—and I’m fighting back.

Trump's own trade rep couldn't explain the logic behind the on-again, off-again tariffs wreaking havoc on our economy. If Republicans care about protecting our jobs and lowering costs, they should all vote for our bipartisan resolution to end Trump's tariff chaos.

Donald Trump started the dumbest trade war in the history of America. His Secretary of Treasury is on Tucker Carlson spinning tales instead of working to contain the fallout. It's time for Republicans to stop bending the knee to Trump and put an end to this.

Very important reporting here. Tom Homan is having his neighbors’ kids disappeared. But their school and their principal are fighting back.
New — I spoke to the school principal of Sackets Harbor, NY, where ICE handcuffed and disappeared a mother and 3 kids (including a 3rd grader). It’s also the town Trump Border Czar Tom Homan calls home. Cook tells me about how the small town is taking on enormous power to bring the students home:

SCOOP: Sen. Brian Schatz is expanding his holds on Trump's nominees to include an additional 50 names — along with a batch of bipartisan foreign affairs bills.

On Friday: @weissmann11.bsky.social correctly calls out the US government claim that they can't bring back people unlawfully sent to El Salvador as "real lawlessness" On Monday: In ruling against the government, Judge Wilkinson correctly echoes: "[T]his is a path of perfect lawlessness."

Elon Musk’s DOGE cronies want an AI bot to replace the federal workers who advise students and families on how to pay for college. Relying on AI for major financial decisions is annoying at best and reckless at worst. Either way, it’ll cost Americans.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are cutting Social Security staff, closing offices, and shutting off vital phone services. One field office worker called it a "house of cards that's about to collapse." This attack is hurting Americans everywhere. We will keep fighting back.

Lawyers have a duty to defend our Constitution. It is an absolute outrage that, in order to curry favor with Trump and continue making their billions, giant law firms like Paul Weiss have abrogated their responsibilities. Thanks to those defending democracy. We will remember.
More than 500 law firms rally behind embattled peers, declaring that Trump’s crackdown on the legal industry poses “a grave threat to our system of constitutional governance and to the rule of law itself.” But none of the top 20 firms join. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/b...

The executive branch will surely lose the argument that they have no control over the people they sent to El Salvador and are paying to house there. We are seeing real lawlessness here.
It sure looks like they’re going all in on the “the executive branch can ignore court orders if it thinks the court lacks jurisdiction” thing
