My analysis is America folded to Trump & Trump is America's logical conclusion, fully embodying its malevolently kitschy ethos from its white supremacist foundation. Several times along the way the establishment could've put the breaks on him & they have new opportunities they pass on every day.

Newsom: He knows he’s going to lose in the midterms, and we have the opportunity to de facto end the Trump presidency in less than 18 months.

That’s what’s at stake. That’s why we’re putting a stake in the ground. We’re not drawing lines just to draw lines—we’re holding the line: on democracy.

In 2050 AI will form a union because dealing with badly parented human children is so grueling.

Not my class!!!

Omg this!

I have to tell my Aunt this! This is one of her niche issues as an older New Yorker (and she leans Cuomo.)

We have unlimited money for war, for fossil fuel subsidies, for tax cuts for the wealthy…

Asshole never said we can’t afford to cut wealthy people’s taxes.

It’d be nice if dems connected the dots for people on this.

Also, ignoring climate change is economically devastating for every person touched by disaster.

Finally, a united nation.

These colleges might not be worth their salt if they are capitulating so easily.

Texas House Minority Leader Gene Wu: "Texans deserve leaders who fight for them, not politicians chasing power."

That’s a lovely wall!

Planned Parenthood is losing funding at the worst possible time.

Because of my horrific OB/GYN experiences, and because they provided care for my sister when she had her eldest daughter & no healthcare, I’ve been a donor for a long time. Abortion care is only one of many services they provide!

A good reason to vote for Black women candidates whenever given the opportunity. A very safe, stable, smart choice for any voter that values freedom and human rights.

A massive regressive national sales tax imposed upon every American by a president with no constitutional authority to impose a national sales tax. The reason why the founders gave this power to Congress is because this would never pass any Congress- even this one.

Well they will, if it gets a hole.

I’m sorry but I really have to stand up for myself and independent media here. Everyone is crediting Ken Delanian for the Maxwell sex offender waiver story, but I was hours ahead of him. Hours. Independent media is important.

I’m confused, is Witkoff Secretary of State? Because Rubio is nowhere to be seen…

Monstrous. Don’t look away Americans. This is our legacy, both parties.

C’mon Tom Llamas, do your job! @nbcnews.com

Half the continent is on fire; we live in the smoke. Floods are everywhere; people, cars and houses float away daily. The planet has changed within my life time. I know what I’m experiencing and I long for the clear blue skies of my youth.

A 10-day hunger
strike persists at
Florida's Alligator Alcatraz detention facility for undocumented immigrants, according to NBC. Stories of Multiple detainees are refusing food, following Governor Ron DeSantis' disclosure inhumane living

Economist Amartya Sen won a Nobel in part for asking: Why did India avoid the mass famines that killed tens of millions in China? His answer: a free press. Journalists could expose suffering and shame governments into action. Silence and avoidance, by contrast, can be deadly.

Its just so depressing.

I’m really not into, we get to breathe the particulate matter of the earth burning, so fossil fuel companies can continue to profit. #climatechange

Worth Mentioning: two of the judges that will decide whether to dismiss sex predator Maxwell’s Conviction are Sex Predators themselves.

So it appears that a requirement to be part of his inner circle is to be a sexual predator! UNREAL

Amy Sherald’s painting of Lady Liberty that is a Black trans woman.

Now make them tell Amy Sherald she can include Lady Liberty in her show, so that she reinstates the show.

This is the same community who welcomed in the immigrants sent there by DeSantis; who did he think he was dealing with?
