"..After another week of pure chaos from Musk and Trump, I’m happy to have more good news to deliver to you today. I hope it shows you there are incredible patriots fighting alongside us against this tyranny, and that it gives you some sense of relief.

Dem Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders continued their joint “Fighting Oligarchy” tour, with stops in Colorado yesterday. They were welcomed by 11,000 people in Greeley, and more than 34,000 people in Denver.

AOC slammed GOP Rep. Gabe Evans, saying: “Do you know which Coloradans did vote to cut medicare and jack up health care costs? Every single Republican representative from Colorado. Don't you worry, I was just at Gabe Evans' district, and 11,000 of his constituents would like a word with him.”

Sanders had a pointed message for Trump: “Turn off Fox TV and take a few moments to read the Constitution of the United States.” Sanders also said of Trump’s attacks on media outlets that refuse to “fawn” over him: “If you cannot take the criticism, get the hell out of politics.”

Folks from every political angle are angry, and the message uniting them all is undeniable: Billionaires should not be running our government, and they must be held accountable for their illegal acts.

In the courts, US District Judge James Boasberg has had enough of the Trump Administration’s lies about deportation. The judge is now investigating why his order to halt flights was ignored. Boasbarg said: “I will get to the bottom of whether they violated my order—who ordered this and what the consequences will be.” He also called Trump’s actions “awfully frightening,” and his use of the Alien Enemies Act “unprecedented.”

In Colorado, a federal judge blocked the deportation of Jeanette Vizguerra—a mother of four and an outspoken critic of Trump. Denver Mayor Mike Johnson said Vizguerra’s arrest is “not about safety. This is Putin-style persecution of political dissidents.” Meanwhile, protests have formed calling for Vizguerra’s immediate release.

The backlash against Musk continues to pile on. One of Tesla’s biggest longtime investors, Ross Gerber, called for Elon to step down as CEO—if he doesn’t refocus on the company. On top of that, more protests are planned today outside of Tesla dealerships, showrooms, and even charging stations.

Town halls continued across the country this week. In GOP Rep. Ryan Mackenzie’s District, 400 people gathered to hear from DNC Chair Ken Martin, along with Dem Reps Mary Gay Scanlon, Susan Wild, and Jamie Raskin. Mackenzie was invited to attend, but decided not to show up. Instead, the embattled Rep. cowardly hosted a telephone town hall, with only 24 hours notice.

One of the few Republicans who is more unhinged than Marjorie Taylor Greene—Andy Biggs—held what he called a “town hall.” Except media was banned, and only Republicans were allowed to attend. Yeah—that is not a town hall.

500 people showed up to an empty-seat town hall in Maine, where GOP Sen. Susan Collins has refused to do in-person town halls for nearly 25 years. At the front of the room sat an easel with a picture of Collins, asking “Where’s Susan?”

Constituent Dale Thompson, who is a Veteran, asked: “where have you been? … When Trump threatened our Governor to cut off funding for our children—MY children—where the hell were you?” Thanks to our supporter Carol for pointing this out!

Dem Sen. Adam Schiff made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel, and said something that stuck with me. He stated: “The path back to power for the Democratic Party is to show that we can get s**t done again.”

And that’s exactly what we’re doing. Showing people every day that when we work together, we truly are unstoppable.."

So far we are showing everyone we can whine pretty good.

"..Homebuilders Index is predicting US is headed into major Recession

Stanley Druckenmiller (big time investor) constantly stresses that certain sectors (for example, housing, transportation, and retail) serve as early indicators of where the broader market is headed. He has noted that “homebuilders, truckers, and retailers … can all tell you where the economy is going six months or a year from now”.."

I forgot I had the Mexican Coke my wife bought me. It tasted like Coke tasted when I was a little kid.

I told you so.
