youtube.com/shorts/-rR2g.... Great overview of how and why our energy bills keep going up.
Many of us in the US cannot abide by the evil being done, and we are trying to find the right way to end the evil of Trump and his henchmen's administration, including the private army he is building. We very much appreciate the aid our international allies have provided. Thank you!
As conservative lawyer George Conway put it: “I just checked—it turns out that Art. II, Sec. 1 of the Constitution of the United States does *not* say ‘The executive Power shall be vested in a bunch of sociopaths who think they can do whatever the f*ck they want and make sh*t up as they go along.’”
Alex Pretti is a hero. An example of a good American human being.
Republicans did. And look where it got them. Lodged into power with a SCOTUS supermajority.
The Daily Kos piece ⬆️ by @carmitage.bsky.social is one of the better summing ups I’ve read!
Don’t let it bum ya out. Get active… locally! Take back power where you live! 👊🏼

Today the United States attacked a sovereign state and abducted their leader.
The President has taken the powers of the purse, dismantled ethics and anti-corruption enforcement, and SCOTUS is complicit.
Enact the Blue State Anti-Corruption Compact.
Trump says we need to go after drug cartels.
Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on.
And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking.
Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy.
It's a power grab.
It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month.
It’s about oil and regime change.
And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

The title of the article is so apt. It's a great value prop for our country and it would be a huge blow to predatory capitalism.

Cory Doctorow does an amazing job of detailing how and why we let predatory capitalism break our society.
Any traders with inside information that Trump was going to walk back his tariffs — some of them, presumably, Trump family members and cronies — just made a fortune.
It all feels like chaos until you look more closely at who is winning.
