A tweet from Isaiah Martin (

) features a meme with a background of a brightly lit arena filled with people. The text on the meme reads: "OH HI THERE" at the top, and "ARE YOU LOOKING FOR THE PERSON WHO LITERALLY TOLD YOU ALL OF THIS WOULD HAPPEN?" at the bottom. In the foreground, Kamala Harris is sitting in a chair with a water bottle and some electronic devices on a table in front of her.

It gives me no pleasure to say she was right.

My god, this is so sad. Rather than nitpicking the tech, doesn't it just make sense to limit the number of flights to/from that absurdly busy airport? Sometimes we just have to accept that we've reached capacity!

If he's confirmed, let's have a "welcome back" party for polio, TB, measles, and a host of other totally preventable killer diseases.

And yet you keep treating Trump's line-crossing with kid gloves-- unlike some smaller, BETTER newspapers:

Yup, many Trump supporters, for sure. BUT there are some who were genuinely worried about border security, a focus on "wokeness" (Latinx?!), Biden's decline, etc.
Did they throw their votes away? Yup. Was that dumb? Yup. Will they regret it? Yup.
But let's welcome those folks back to sanity...

Yes, well, good. Of course you're the outlet that "sanewashed" him-- but if you're truly on Board now, LEAD US in RESISTING!

You might start by avoiding headlines like this:
"White House Press Secretary Makes Steely and Unflinching Debut"
How about "New WH PressSec Magnifies Trump Lies"?

I think that's just the beginning... wait until we see the full cost of deporting/interning hundreds of thousands of the immigrants who pick crops, work construction, staff hotels, etc.

But I bet Mar-a-Lago won't lose one of its immigrant workers...

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.

I know. I was there in those camps.

And of course that's because our hero President finally persuaded the CA governor to "turn on the big faucet".

Seriously, it's wonderful that the fires are contained. So glad for California. And so sad that we're living in an idiocracy.

Distraction is Trump's favorite tool. While his Treas Sec says lowering taxes on the wealthy is the administration's "number one priority", that work goes on behind the scenes while Trump blithers publicly about tariffs, DEI, and other MAGA red-meat issues. And the MAGAts fall for it.

And of course Trump himself is a liar, a cheat, a lunatic, an ignoramus, a racist, a misogynist, a rapist...

Every day, the idiocy gets worse...
Trump's new Transportation Secretary said this at a post-crash news conference: β€œObviously, it is not standard to have aircraft collide. I want to be clear on that.” Oh-- and, as a Congress member, he voted *against* FAA funding...

There is so much sad about this, even beyond the terrible air tragedy. While Trump throws red meat to his MAGAts-- DEI, "wokeness", immigrant crime waves-- behind the scenes he and his cohorts are moving to cut taxes on the rich, and actually make life worse for the "base". So stupid!

It's appalling that his lifelong bullying and ignorance actually appeal to MAGA-- and every Republican in Congress. It will take us generations to undo the damage Trump & Co. are doing... that is, if we're not extinguished by war, climate change, or preventable diseases.

Richardson, a respected historian, is always excellent-- accurate, intelligent, thought-provoking. I look forward to reading her every day.

If this dangerous ignoramus is confirmed, let's rename HHS The Department of Preventable Diseases and Deaths.

Yes, they do mean "Black"... but I think they also mean women, ethnic minorities, LBGTQ folks, and anyone who's not a rich White American-born man. It's repulsive and anti-American!
