In another hundred years, if any of us is still here, maybe we’ll have another pandemic and create the CSC all over again.

I know this is not a unique observation but public health was basically created to deal with the Spanish flu, and then a century later COVID hit and killed twice as many people and our response was to destroy public health

While the nation has plenty of real problems to deal with, Trump is ignoring them to manufacture fake emergencies. Why? He wants more power — and he wants to distract from his unpopular agenda. It should be clear that America’s actual national emergency is Donald J. Trump.

Republicans are lying about Medicaid work requirements. The truth is that a vast majority of recipients who can work are already working. Work requirements are just a shady way to fund tax cuts for the wealthy.

Felon works for GOP/MOB. He is only as powerful as GOP/MOB allows. He's the frontman for the syndicate distracting, outraging while they execute the coup. Focus on GOP/MOB - WO them Felons in jail. They prove every day they don't end this that they are a crime syndicate executing a coup.

Target made its choice—and so have Black consumers. The National Black Church Initiative isn’t playing PR games. No more performative marketing while treating Black communities like disposable income streams. I have nothing to do with this org, but it is telling.

I’m so confused by the folks who said that raising the minimum wage would increase the price of every day goods while also being okay with tariffs raising the price of every day goods… I reckon they are okay paying higher prices as long as it doesn’t help anyone making a minimum wage.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

Gidget Goebbels uses plants. Anybody surprised?

A NYT analysis of Karoline Leavitt's press conferences revealed how she relies on planted right-wing propagandists to ask leading questions so she can lie to the American public. These "press conferences" are just propaganda events now, like in North Korea or Russia. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

WOW. One of the Venezuelans whom Kristi Noem tried to render to El Salvador's slave prison managed to avoid removal and was able to make it to immigration court, and you'll never guess what happened: THE GOVERNMENT GAVE NO EVIDENCE OF HIS GANG MEMBERSHIP. Due process ftw

1/The Trump admin has made it clear: they will have to be forced to comply with the law. They won’t do it voluntarily. It’s that simple & that complicated. Worst of all, it’s completely unsurprising we’ve come to this juncture. This was in the cards all along joycevance.substack.com/p/the-suprem...

Let me help by reposting this so there are more places for the bond market to notice.

Chris Hayes@chrislhayes.bsky.social

I am but a humble cable news host with a bachelor’s in philosophy, but I feel like at some point the bond market is also going to notice that the GOP is going to pass a deficit financed 5 trillion dollar tax cut. Maybe?

Trump: “I see your 84% and I raise you Eleventy-Zillion % !!!!!” Bessant:”How about 124%?” Trump:”Okay. Whatevs.”

Trump forever damaged the nation's economy and national security to pursue this stupid tariff policy. He hurt America for nothing more than an ego boost.
