Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

The spoils of this plunder are trillions of dollars in tax cuts for the wealthiest 1%โ€”a massive upward transfer of wealth for people who need it least.

This is exactly why billionaires spend so much money on our elections.

Trump and Republicans in Congress are trying to pull off one of the biggest heists in U.S. history.

The so-called โ€œBig Beautiful Billโ€ is robbery, plain and simple.

And itโ€™s being committed by the billionaire class and the politicians they put into office.

Schumer and Jeffries should condemn this and demand an apology from the President - or they should resign, or be primaried.

Can you imagine if a significant portion of the money spent on elections was instead spent on public goods and services?

I don't think we're in a democracy anymore. Unmarked secret police kidnapping people off the street? A dictator mobilizing the military against civilians? Defying court orders? Ignoring due process? Arresting political opponents? Democracy has left the building. We CAN & MUST get it back, though.

Every single person who has actively or passively has allowed the genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza owns this too. If Bibi had been stopped in 2023, 2024, Jan 1-June 11 2025, this would not have happened.

Rebecca didnโ€™t know Ted when she behaved badly. When she got to know him she cut it out and apologized. Nate was the recipient of Tedโ€™s love and good will and then betrayed it. Very different dynamic. I forgive him though. Daddy issues are tough

I am sounding the alarm as loudly as I can that Donald Trump has turned the Department of Justice into a cog in his authoritarian machine to prosecute his political opponents.
