Trump bragged about taking in hundreds of billions of dollars with his tariffs.

His tariffs are a national sales tax - and that's hundreds of billions of YOUR dollars that he's bragging about taking.

A tweet from Roy Drones Jr reads: β€œRemember when the right wing got upset about a vaccine card.” Below it, a retweeted post from Majority Report says: β€œICE tickets Chicago man with legal residency $130 for not having his papers on him: β€˜It’s not fair… I’m a resident.’” The image shows a man outdoors holding up a yellow citation ticket toward the camera, his face partially obscured. He appears to be wearing a dark jacket and sunglasses, with buildings and a bright blue sky in the background.

We are becoming a β€œpapers, please” country, and no one should want that.

Abbott and Youngkin mobilize National Guard for 'No Kings' rallies Abbott and Youngkin mobilized the National Guard ahead of "No Kings" rallies expected on Saturday.

Be extra quiet in these states at Saturday's protest. Imagine the news video of no noise coming from the protesters, the only noise being the racking of bullets in the guns of the national guard and ICE. Stage it for the cameras like republicans do.

Jeffries: "It's shameful that Grijalva has not been sworn in because Johnson & House Republicans apparently want to continue to hide the Epstein files. It's my expectation if she is not sworn in today during the pro forma session, as the AZ AG has made clear, expect swift & decisive legal action."

BREAKING: Hundreds of students are gathering at the University of Virginia’s lawn to tell the Board and interim president not sign onto Trump’s corrupt β€˜Contract’ for colleges. This is amazing.

No Kings Β· Mobilize Create an event to bring together local No Kings supporters.

The best way to fight this administration is peaceful protest in numbers. They want us to curl up in a ball and let them have their way. We must protest in numbers too big to ignore. See how you can make your voices heard β€¦πŸ”» www.mobilize.us/nokings/c/no...

Jeffries: This is the second time it's been shut down under Donald Trump, and he's nowhere to be found. He's got time to be on the golf course, but apparently doesn't have time to sit down with Democrats to reopen the government.

Please understand that This is Trump regime explaining how they will use the government to prosecute Democrats. Page 1 of the fascist playbook is imprison political opponents so that the fascist has one party rule.

This is the President not only purporting to arrogate unto himself the ability to β€œtake away free speech rights,” but also to do so for speech because it β€œaggravates and irritates.”

The bottom line is these people running our country are literally foreigners to the concept of democracy.

1. More Americans work at the Cheesecake Factory than in the entire coal industry, and that won't change. It's because of automation, not snooty libs.

2. Coal energy is now more expensive than wind and solar.

3. So this means: higher energy prices, more pollution, no jobs benefit. Genius!

Soybean Week Shines A Light On Minnesota's Farmers From September 29 To October 5 Minnesota's Governor Walz has declared Soybean Week as farmers face challenges from tariffs and lost exports to China, urging locals to support the backbone of our agricultural economy.

Minnesota’s soybean farmers produced a bumper crop this year, just to find out they have nowhere to sell their harvest thanks to Trump’s trade policies.

I’ll keep standing with our farmers
to advocate for an end to these reckless tariffs.

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"
