Hell freezing over. WSJ, centrists, progressives, and Democrats all agree Trump and Vance are kowtowing to Putin, a tyrannical thug, and undermining the US.

This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II.

Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago.

But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today.

He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

If you are a liberal in deep blue territory, one thing you could try doing right now is figuring out how to replace your Democratic member of Congress next year. With very few exceptions, the typical safe seat Dem is not meeting the moment. Find someone who will and help them.

Fearing repercussions from your government. Fearing the sudden loss of healthcare for your whole family. Fearing that what the government intends for you is mere sadismβ€”trauma without purpose or justification. This is what evil men do when we let them spend a lifetime doing evil without consequence.

natevince Heartbroken and Confused! I was terminated on Valentines Day from my dream job.
48 weeks ago I started my permanent NPS position as Yosemite's new Locksmith. y I apprenticed under the previous locksmith the 4 years before his retirement. He had a wonderful carrier of 23 years with NPS. He said, "This is a good job Nate, the park can't run without a locksmith, do your job well and your'll always have job."
Well now 3 weeks short of my probationary period l've been fired. I've had exemplary performance and am essential for park operations.
The people that fired me don't know who I am, or what I do.
They simply don't understand this park and how big and complex it is.

I need to immediately move out of housing, I have lost my career and I have NO PLAN. This was my dream! All of my eggs were in this basket and I planned to stay till retirement. I had an appointment to meet a realtor today, but canceled, everything has been flipped upside down. I'm scared I?????????????????????!!!!!!??????????????????] I was terminated at 1:15pm 2/14/2025 via email.
Yosemite National Park the size of Rhode Island and has more locks than a small city, and without a locksmith I'm deeply concerned for the safety and security of the park and people in it. This is not right!

Look if a man had recently become a bipartisan folk hero for allegedly killing a CEO for denying people healthcare...I'm not sure my opening salvo would be voting to strip a large chunk of a gun toting population of healthcare. That's just me though.

Had a conversation with a non political person whose buddy works for the forest service and was 10 months into his job supplying hard to reach parts of a national forest and was fired. The guy talking to me was like β€œI don’t really think my buddy’s $50,000 salary is gonna balance the budget.”
