Of course heโ€™s going to say that while heโ€™s golfing & hosting gilded parties at his fancy club. I have yet to see him serving at a soup kitchen (VP Kamala Harris last Thanksgiving) or surprising soldiers on a plane (Pres Obama today). How is this news?

Adelita Grijalva hit the nail on the head: True troop support means funding veterans' health ๏ผ† housing, not slashing it! Let's keep backing our vets, their families, and the federal workers who serve them. #VeteransDay

The world is not safe with baby-man Trump and his enablers making illegal decisions. I hope Trump doesnโ€™t decide to blow up & murder these boaters anyway.

Experts Say Blue States Can Stop Paying Federal Taxes. Thereโ€™s Precedent If we could use nullification for people to get high, why canโ€™t we use it to protect human rights and stop fascism?

Soft secession

Legislation creates a Federal Tax Escrow Account in the state treasury. Instead of employers forwarding collected federal taxes to Washington, they send them to the state. The state holds the money in escrow. A legislative panel reviews federal spending for constitutional compliance.

Elon Musk gets roasted on his own platform by Joyce Carol Oates. Like an ancient cyborg culling through the ruins of a post-apocalyptic planet (twitter, derogatory), Joyce Carol Oates recently fired her full-power death ray at aspiring trillionaire Elon Musk, whโ€ฆ

Joyce Carol Oates raked Elon Musk over the coals with her usual concise lovely prose. Her comments could also apply to the joyless crass soul of Trump.

Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about.

What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars.

We're paying for the torture of children.

I know this is beyond grim, but we must let people know about this!

Voters Ousted This Pennsylvania Sheriff After He Signed Up to Collaborate With ICE - Bolts A populous, swing county replaced its GOP sheriff on Tuesday after months of controversy over his joining ICEโ€™s 287(g) program. The Democratic winner promises heโ€™ll end the contract.

NEW: Dems easily flipped the sheriff's office in Pennsylvania's Bucks County, a big swing county in the Philly suburbs.

So? The incumbent GOP sheriff had contracted with ICE. His Dem challenger promised to end the contract.

Now he wants other swing-state Dems to look at his victory as a lesson:
