So the military will start shooting homeless people? anyone who disagrees with Trump? or Hegseth? any demonstrators? Will these professional soldiers who pledged to support our constitution just arrest this guy and put him away somewhere?

Fascinating piece by NPR the other day on donating to democracy PACs, esp. the "sky if falling" pleas. Bottom line, ACTBlue is setting tighter rules for PACs that use their website. Many of the PACs work like Spotify, the candidates see pennies. Use ACTBlue for PACs or donate direct to candidate.

If you thought Glacier, Yellowstone, Mt. Rainier (Tahoma), Yosemite, Wildlife Sanctuaries, National Monuments were safe because they were removed from the Big Awful Bill, think again.

Preventable disasters will increase from deregulation and defunding, the environment will degrade from deregulation, more women will die because of anti-abortion laws, children will die from preventable gun violence due to a lack of gun control, etc., etc. This is Republican America!

Let's be honest. There are some serious questions about the impact of President Trump's assault on NOAA, the National Weather Service, and FEMA, and whether it made these floods more deadly. We aren't doing our job if we aren't seeking answers to these questions.

There are several Canadians and Australians who have tried to enter the US recently. They were asked by the US Border Patrol "Do you like Trump?" and if they answered "No" they were turned away.
One couple tried "yes" at another crossing but learned they couldn't enter the US for four years.
