All I hear about are layoffs and slow business. The trades have slowed down a lot. Folks are always saying forget college and learn a trade. Well, the trades require a strong economy with building and growth for jobs to exist.

We are in a recession. D voters know it, I voters know it, R voters know it. Economist are confused by some aspects, but know the fundamentals are bad. Trump cooks the books, but can't hide this forever

The pardons are primarily symbolic: No one on the list has been charged with federal crimes, and Trump can't pardon those facing state charges in GA, AZ, NV and WI.

But it's another effort by Trump to recast the history of his bid to seize a second term in 2020. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

He can’t. And he can’t reinstate the disbarred.

NYT - Kash Patel’s inexperience, his dismissals of top FBI officials and his shift of resources from thwarting spies and terrorism have heightened concerns among the other Five Eyes nations that the bureau is adrift […]

No they haven’t. Trump can’t pardon people with state charges.

Remember when Donald Trump said there would be people standing in bread lines trying to get food if Kamala Harris won?

People are standing in line for food in Cleveland because of Donald Trump.

Why did Trump get in return? Money for his ballroom? A free plane?

They went from “we’re going to bring prices down on day 1” to “prices always go up” inside 10 months.

Ellis notes that the feds argue "plaintiffs have not been engaged in First Amendment protected activity" because they've "intermingled themselves with rioters."

"But as I've previously stated," Ellis says, "I don't find defendants' version of events credible."

Ellis notes people being tear gassed, staring down the barrel of a gun and being "slammed to the ground with their head bashed into the street."

"All of that would cause a reasonable person to think twice about exercising their fundamental constitutional rights."

Ellis on the Oct. 14 incident on the Southeast side: "Agents pushed, shoved, tackled protesters, pointed guns at them, threw tear gas and deployed smoke canisters. Everyone that agents detained were released by the FBI, and none of them are currently charged with assault."

Ellis: "The government would have people believe, instead, that the Chicagoland area is in a vice hold of violence, ransacked by rioters and attacked by agitators. That simply is untrue. And the government's own evidence in this case belies that assertion."

Ellis: "This is the Chicagoland I see. From Aurora to Cicero, and Chicago to Evanston to Waukegan. This is a vibrant place, brimming with vitality and hope. Striving to move forward from its complicated history."

The billionaire class can keep stuffing their own pockets more and more and screw everyone else struggling to get by, but history reminds us the day will come when people decide they’ve had enough injustice and oppression.

The Oregon Department of Justice submitted multiple video exhibits showing federal officers using extreme force against nonviolent protesters outside the U.S. Immigration & Customs Building. This is part of its effort to block the federal deployment of National Guard troops to Portland.

Trump vs Obama

He has threatened to annex Canada & Greenland, conduct strikes in Mexico, Venezuela & now Nigeria.

He has orchestrated 50+ extrajudicial killings. No evidence provided for his actions.

He is openly enriching himself and his billionaire donors while waging war against the working class.
