I’ve traveled to two of the DC protests so far and will continue to do so when possible. I strongly believe that the full diversity of the progressive coalition needs to turn out to maximize impact of the demonstrations.

You are probably correct.

Fine, stay home. But left unchecked, the Trump regime will eventually come for white liberals but not before chain gangs of black folks will be forced to replace the labor of deported brown folks.

Embrace a Bernie style economic and tax policy that is skewed to help white people.

As usual, Prince was way ahead of his time.

The revelation towards the end is jaw dropping.

The ratio is brutal.

It would cost $38 billion dollars to extend the Affordable Care Act subsidies for another year and ensure Americans don’t lose their healthcare.

The republicans said no.

Trump sent $40 billion to Argentina and they didn’t object.

Argentina first, America last.

That proposed deal also required a pathway to citizenship for the Dreamers. Why did you leave that part out?

ICE may not be a Secret Police Force but when the identities and faces of its armed members are secret it’s a distinction without a difference.

Don’t sleep on James Talerico in Texas.

The correlation between a state’s college degree percentage and a state’s
vote for President in 2024 is almost perfect.

Musk can afford to pay Trump for an exemption from the $100,000 fee. Many small tech companies cannot.

Some of the ministers in Bibi’s cabinet give Miller some competition in the ethno-nationalist category.

Apparently ICE wasn’t copied on the memo. All they saw was an opportunity to deport a lot of brown people.

The Korean workers bring the specialized expertise in battery manufacturing need to start up the plant. Over time these specialized functions will be transitioned to Americans.

When the Dems get back in power comprehensive court reform that includes SCOTUS expansion must be a priority.

You don’t need a “distraction” if you can make yourself a full on dictator.

The Ohio National Guard being sent out to DC to enforce the will of an increasingly authoritarian President is potentially much worse than what happened at Kent State.

Deploying the FBI to patrol streets is like Admiral Nimitz reassigning his code breaking unit to scrape barnacles.

Newsom shows how to get the media to see Trump’s weakness If you sound like a demented old man, reporters want to know why.
