Stagflation

The Fed Chair is describing stagflation but does not want to say the word.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Okay. I just came back to this and you aren’t calling these efforts resegregation yet, you absolutely should be

Marco Rubio, Stephen Miller, Kirsti Noem, Joseph Mazzara, Emil Bove, Drew Sargent, and everyone else involved in planning, executing, and obstructing justice around the CECOT imprisonments are responsible for Andry's torture and rape.

Each bears a share of the blame. Don't ever let them forget it.

🤔

Agreed!

Please call your Reps. We have to try, even if it seems unlikely that there are 4 Republicans with any shred of a soul left.

🤦🏼‍♀️ Facebook is so maddening!

Read his short 3-part thread. It really is that simple

Not only are ICE bounty hunters, who look more like criminals than law enforcement, abducting people from workplaces & off the street—we’re now seeing they’re being held in private detention centers w/some of the most deplorable conditions imaginable.

REPEAT: people are profiting from this cruelty.

I'm 55, Gen X, and this system doesn't work for me. I am *still* paying of student loans. I've worked since the age of 15, but I'll never be able to retire: one illness could wipe out all my (meager) savings. There's no social safety net, and we're expected to literally work ourselves to death.

this court says that allowing EPA to regulate carbon emissions is a "major question" that demands congressional debate. but allowing the president to, with a flick of the wrist, end a straightforward constitutional right is something that must be allowed to stand?

To Err Is Human, To Defy Bove-ine A bombshell whistleblower complaint sheds light on who in the Justice Department is allegedly driving open defiance of the courts

Credible whistleblower account that Bove, a Trump DOJ official, told staff attorneys they'd need to say "f*ck you" to courts & to lie in order to send migrants to El Salvador "no matter what." He's now nominated for lifetime appointment as fed judge. Tell your Senators to vote no & to investigate

They were supposed to be deporting “gang members” and “criminals.”

So far, they have kidnapped people working their day jobs and folks lawfully showing up for their immigration court appearances…

It was always a lie.

Read his whole thread. Iran didn't pose an imminent threat; Trump acted illegally & recklessly. Whether it's to distract us from disastrous domestic policy, to profit, or because he's been manipulated, who knows. Congress must deny authorization for this illegal war, then
IMPEACH.
CONVICT.
REMOVE.

On 6/12, DHS Sec’y Kristi Noem said “We are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.” This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.

Democrats condemn ‘sickening’ and ‘dictatorial’ forcible removal of senator Alex Padilla from Noem event in LA – live California governor Newsom joins number of Democrats in condemning removal of Padilla from homeland security secretary’s press briefing

Alex Padilla, a sitting US Senator from California, was forcibly removed, put on the ground, & handcuffed, for daring to ask a question at Kristi Noem's Homeland Security press briefing.

This is authoritarianism. Tyranny. If they'll do that a a Senator, imagine what they'll do to the rest of us. 😡

Here's another native plant that pops up in scattered spots around my property each Spring, amongst the weeds: a type of cluster lily called brodiaea elegans. 🌱

Ditto. When his personal ambitions line up to support the things I value, he can be very bold and effective, but I'm not kidding myself about his motivations or character.

They're going to lie and make up their reasons for escalating - they've already started. So stopping the protest is like obeying in advance, which we must not do.

Remember when Republicans were losing their minds about leaving Afghans who worked with US troops to be killed by the Taliban?

Well, Trump has revoked their asylum and is planning to send them back to be murdered.

😡

Oh wow, thank you for letting me know! I'll look into it

I am featured this month in Gold Country Artists Gallery in Placerville, CA. I don't often post about my photography but here are some of my images, or visit www.SierraLunaPhoto.com

Dr. Swain is a well-respected climate science guy & has been crucial to firefighting in California; he's calm & measured, not a fear-monger or sensationalist. This is bad for wildfire preparedness/fighting & agriculture in CA, bad for long-haul trucking on I-80 in WY, bad for tornado tracking & more

If we talked about what's happening here in the US the same way we talked about events in other parts of the world...

Well said @chrismurphyct.bsky.social

Exclusive: NSF faces radical shake-up as officials abolish its 37 divisions Changes seen as a response to presidential directives on what research to fund

Things are going from bad to worse at NSF; www.science.org/content/arti...

They've always been anti-union & anti-worker. That's why they create culture war wedge issues to divide the working class. Well, that, & they're racist. But I guess there were enough voters more attached to racism than to any sense of solidarity. And here we are.

I hate this timeline so much.
