1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

As Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi knew her shit, didn't take any shit, and had her shit together.

Mike Johnson, on the other hand, is full of shit, doesn't do shit, and is scared shitless of Trump.

The two Charterites who served as Mayor in the early 80s were Republicans for state and national elections. But for city elections, they were Charterites which was always a coalition party.

Which again I’ll keep reminding the public- wouldn’t be happening if ppl had voted in 2024 like they did this past election.

Imagine voting right the first time
And not needing a blue wave to fix Republican fuck ups.

His cabinet meetings are so strange. You're right about the dearth of women. And what are the plates for? Are they going to have lunch with all these reporters there? And did Biden do cabinet meetings like this? Or Obama? Or Bush? It's all a show.

And him knocking on the table? Oh lord.

The mass deportations are as un-American as anything can be possible. America is the worldβ€˜s greatest multicultural democracy with immigrants from the entire planet. This is what makes America great, not the hate & bigotry of the GOP. America is democracy & equality, not white people’s blood land.

An illustration postcard! Pastel-like artwork depicts a crazed chicken running across a road... just barely dodging a puzzle-looking piece of the sky, crash-landing just behind them. Hand written text asks "Why did the chicken cross the road?" and "Because!" with an arrow poitning at the puzzle piece.

His office is now launching investigations into reports of federal agents brutalizing and threatening community members. β€œThey appear to have just started beating people up for no reason,” Biss says. β€œIf that was anybody except for a federal agent, they would be under arrest.”

HAPPENING NOW: Judge McConnell is sharply rebuking the Trump administration for what he said was defying his order to make full SNAP payments by Nov. 5. He has ordered USDA to make the *full* payment to states by tomorrow.

Are Hispanics America’s New Jews? That was the realignment that was

Krugman: "So Tuesday showed that the Hispanic vote has re-realigned. [...] Republicans had their chance to win over a new bloc of voters; but by indulging Trump’s violent racism and nativism, they have lost them and will probably never get them back."

The original shift was inexplicable as it was. His racism, and the GOP’s, was there for everyone to see.
