El-Sayed: "If all Mike Rogers got is that 'his name is Abdul, and my name is Mike,' you're gonna be surprised how many people are like, 'Yeah, but that's the Abdul who wants to bring down the price of my groceries and make sure I got healthcare. So yeah, I like Abdul over your Mike from Florida.'"

So the President imposed unlawful tariffs, the cost of which companies shifted to their customers. Then the government reimbursed the cost of the tariffs, which the companies will keep for themselves. So it’s just a huge windfall (of free public funding). finance.yahoo.com/economy/poli...
Apple got a $2.2 billion tariff refund this quarter
It's a one-time windfall, but what a windfall.

This is really something to consider. Trump is running up our debt while pocketing billions that should be going to the American people. Cutting subsidies we need but where is all that money going? What hes doing is calculated. The mob boss & his cronies are destroying the country to take it over.
If you believe that Trump - 80, barely able to walk or stay awake long enough to make it around an 18-hole course - won a free and fair golf tournament without cheating… then I’ve got a used car, gold-plated and once-owned and autographed by Trump, I’d love to sell you. 😁 #Trump #Golf #Bedminster
Republicans have been gutting education for decades. This is what becomes of an ignorant society. How do you wake up a person who is too dumb (w/ a b) to know they are dumb?
Warning: the President of the United States is kidnapping American citizens off the streets of blue states. Some of them return —most do not. Some are murdered in concentration camps owned by the President’s cronies. All of it is one big fat crime. None of our electeds will stop him. Will you?
You'd have to be a special kind of stupid to not understand this.
I mean this in all seriousness, this is a severely mentally ill & delusional person who not only should be removed from office under the 25th amendment, but he should be in a psych ward. This is pure insanity on so many levels. He lives in a fantasy world. He is unwell & has lost touch with reality.
#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #DemsUnited #DV1 When the Sec. of State tries to sell the regime’s foreign policies, He’ll be schooled & reprimanded a lot by leaders abroad, who may not show a diplomatic smile. That’s the path he has chosen— betting his whole career on one man.

🔴 MAGA’s harassment of Fauci is a medieval witch hunt driven by scientifically illiterate bullies desperate to feed the mob. Any country that believes in modern medicine, vaccines, and reason should stand with Fauci against this tirade of ignorance
Every single second, the world hands $6,000 to the fossil fuel industry in subsidies. That’s $5 TRILLION every year. Renewables? Barely a fraction of that. We are literally paying to cook our own planet. When does this madness stop? 🌍💸 #ClimateCrisis #FossilFuels
My brother-in-law died from covid. My sister died from longterm covid. My husband and I are immune compromised cancer patients who have survived covid by getting every single covid vaccine. Dr. Fauci is a hero. This entire nation owes him our gratitude and support.
Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Scavino posted this video of the Oval Office and it somehow looks even more embarrassing than I realized
It's depressing that this moved me so much, but did. First time I've heard a politician praise a group of immigrants, without caveat, for a long while.
Andy Burnham, "To me, carers should be the best paid people in society, not the worst" "Many people from other countries have been caring for my dad" Andy Burnham praises migrants to the UK who care for our elderly, a stark contrast to Keir-island-of-strangers-Starmer

‘Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.’ - Archbishop Desmond Tutu
This is a totally surreal moment in the Epstein scandal. They win the top award for exposing a pedophile, then have to shake hands with said pedophile.
Remarkable camera angle of President Trump as he listens to Wall Street Journal reporters receiving an award for their investigation into Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein — which they pursued despite Trump’s threats and lawsuit.
When the story of why humanity didn't stop climate change is written, it will feature front pages like this. Even as the skies blacken with climate change-induced wildfires, right wing media continue their relentless crusade against measures to tackle it.
One unleashes the *hounds* of Hell, not the gates of Hell, you illiterate moron.
