Apparently Ron DeSantis wants to eliminate property taxes. If Floridians aren't already the dumbest people in the country, they soon will be with no funding for public education.

They really do want to keep us poor and stupid.

If this country was truly โ€œpro-life,โ€ we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isnโ€™t about โ€œlife.โ€

Itโ€™s about control.

SO many jaw dropping revelations in this, from them firing 80% of the career ICE field leadership, to Noem's appeals to Republicans to write op-eds backing her, to Lewandowski firing people who wouldn't authorize a gun, to hiring back the fired pilot because they had no one else to fly them home.

EPA reverses long-standing climate change finding, stripping its own ability to regulate emissions The agency announced it is repealing its 2009 conclusion that greenhouse gases warm the Earth and endanger human health and well-being.

There are so many fucked up things with the current administration that it's hard to focus on one but this recent move is basically a death sentence for the planet. I've been involved with more boots on the ground actions over the years than I can count and this really bums me out.

The New York Times just launched a new "newsletter about the law and the courts." They are calling it "The Docket."

The Times may not care that Democracy Docket has been publishing "On the Docket" and "Daily Docket" for years, but I believe our 400,000 subscribers might.

More on this tomorrow.

The more we learn, the worse it gets.
We have a felonious pedo in the WH, a legion of others involved, a corrupt FBI leader, & a corrupt DOJ leader.
They donโ€™t care about the survivors at all. Nor do they care about those who didnโ€™t survive. They are all guilty.
