How much healthcare for Americans could $1 Billion per day pay for??

We have the money for Universal Healthcare. Don't believe the GOP when they say we don't.

Firing the Dog Killer isn't going to solve the overreach and Gestapo-like actions of ICE. DHS MUST BE DEFUNDED AND DISBANDED. Trump cannot have an agency that is used this way at his disposal. It is NOT solving any issues of security. It is terrorizing people. #DEFUNDDHS

Trump fires Homeland Security Secretary Noem after mounting criticism over her leadership Kristi Noem has addressed a Department of Homeland Security event moments after President Donald Trump’s announcement she's been fired.

One by one, they're all going to be gone one way or another. The mistake they made is thinking that by sticking by him, they'd be safe. #ETTD apnews.com/article/trum...

So, now oil prices are soaring. I just saw a news anchor ask a pundit how Democrats should use the Iran war to their advantage. How about, β€œHey! Want an end to living in hell?”

Trump is leading us into WW3 just to distract from the Epstein files. He is insane. The world hates us. How far is this going to go before the Senate stops him?

Donald Trump is dragging the United States into a war the American people do not want. Let me be clear: I am opposed to a regime-change war in Iran, and our troops are being put in harm’s way for the sake of Trump’s war of choice.

A worker harvesting leeks on a hot 90Β° day

"Jesse" was harvesting leeks in Moorpark CA. "It's sunny and 90Β° today-very different from last week's rainy 65Β° weather. I'm grateful my UFW contract ensures shade, breaks and cool water. Many non-union workers don't get this and changes like this are hard on our body." #WeFeedYou

The political climate is forcing many Latinos to question whether they belong Many U.S.-born Latinos feel afraid and anxious amid the political rhetoric. Still, others wouldn't miss celebrating their country

@thedavidpakmanshow.bsky.social David, why on earth did ANYONE of Latin descent vote for Trump when he called Mexicans rapists the day he first announced his campaign? I still don’t understand. Please address this on the program.

I still wonder what might have been had we not had our corrupt electoral college, and Hillary had been president in 2016. Donald Trump would have been a brief clown show who would have quickly been forgotten. Instead we are stuck with an unprecedentedly corrupt leader bent on being a dictator. πŸ˜–

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere.

It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

Scouting America will alter its policies to maintain support from the US military, Pentagon says Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says Scouting America will alter several policies to maintain its support from the U.S. military.

Democracy is collapsing, and Keg Breath is worried about the freaking Boy Scouts??? What a colossal waste of time and space this whole administration is.

This is BULLSHIT. Aileen Cannon needs to be removed from the bench immediately. This decision must be reversed. The bench exists to support the law, not to protect Trump.

SCOTUS Live: US Supreme Court rules against Trump's tariffs The justices ruled 6-3 against Trump's tariffs, rejecting one of the U.S. President's most contentious assertions of his authority in a ruling with major implications for the global economy.

SCOTUS has ruled against the Convicted FElon's Tariffs. They said that the Convicted FElon doesn't have the power to impose Tariffs. It was a 6-3 decision.
At least SCOTUS got this one right.
