Me too! Can’t wait for the third season to come out

If you haven’t watched Shrinking, add that one to your list! So good, but not for kids 😁

I don’t think this is accurate. I’ve searched but I don’t think what they voted on was a holiday for Charlie Kirk. I understand the frustration though. My own Dem rep voted in favor of this measure honoring CK. It’s all performative and she’s in a very purple district but still awful!

Alt-right trolls make life miserable for Charlie Kirk and his Turning Point USA 'Culture War' tour Charlie Kirk’s attempt at creating a young conservative movement, called Turning Point USA, has long had a complicated relationship with the youth-oriented, white nationalist alt-right. This week,

Yup. We are not getting out of this that easy. DJT could die today and their fascist agenda will march on. Keep doing the work

Rising This Week: The coercion of Kilmar Abrego Garcia Trump's government threatens to whisk Abrego to Uganda if he doesn't give up his right to a trial.

On Monday, Kilmar Abrego Garcia has a mandatory check-in at ICE's Baltimore field office.

His family and advocates plan to hold a vigil and rally outside opposing the government's threats to whisk him to Uganda if he doesn't forfeit his right to a trial. www.allrisenews.com/p/kilmar-abr...

Today: Anti-Trump protesters marched in Washington, all the way to the White House—peaceful, defiant, rejecting his occupation of D.C.

Questions, in no particular order:

1. Where’s the Secretary of State, Marco Rubio?
2. Is there a homeland security/CT plan given recent focus on mass deportations and downgrading of CT?
3. Did the “2 weeks” backlash push him or was it a done deal?
4. Did he notify Congress at all?
(More soon)

What am I worried about?
-Safety of 30k US troops in the Middle East
-cybersecurity (since CISA was recently gutted) & homeland security (as HLS focused on immigration)
-Economic strength (oil prices and tariffs)
-Allied assistance (we’ll need that now)
-Domestic intell (leadership at FBI/DNI)

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.

Yup

Hilarious that he thinks these are all selling points

It gets more and more disturbing by the day

Another must read.

And….they don’t care either

Tomorrow’s going to be a good stress test of the press. El Salvadoran President Bukele will visit the White House. At the press availability, every Q ought to be about Abrego Garcia: where is he now? Did US ask you to return him? etc. WH will hate, maybe try to prevent, so all should band together.

CALL TODAY.

Can someone who’s good at the economy tell me if this is good

Tomorrow, in addition to being Cesar Chavez Day, is the Trans Day of Visibility.
