- Corporate Media pollsters have refused to poll Trump's actual policies because they are so unpopular & dangerous as to make the pollsters look/feel biased, instead they created sanitized & popular versions of policies based on his rhetoric that inflated his support & lied to US about his policies.

- The Trump Administration is trying to destroy the little agency that's put $21 billion back in the pockets of Americans who have been ripped off by big banks and giant corporations. But Congress created the CFPB, and we’re fighting back.

- It's really hard to overstate how hugely favored conservatives were up until two months ago. Here's the graph of Canadian polling between March 2023 and March 2025. (Reminder: blue is conservative.) Those are months and months of 20+ point leads for Tories.

- This isn't a new product. It's an updated vaccine to account for new strains and viral evolution. Are they going to do this for all COVID and influenza vaccines yearly?

- pretty fucking wild to read a story that confirms there *is* an elite cabal of some of the country's wealthiest and most influential people and they *are* coordinating strategy and tactics to try to control global opinion, it's just not any of the the cabals tinfoil hatters have always assumed

- Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…
