Tweet From Obama mentioning my firing from the Washington post. Wirh a photo of me
The last political column I was allowed to write in the @washingtonpost.com was a criticism of Obama.
His people took issue with my piece, but we were respectful.
Now he is tweeting in support of me.
This is how free political speech and respect for debate *actually works*.
Or used to work.

Donald Trump has been President for 9 months and all heβs done is make Americans sicker and poorer.
When he passed his Big Bad Bill, he took a lot of money and he put it into tax cuts for billionaires. Youβre going to see it in your premiums.

I saw a post saying that ICE is pausing its tip line, so I decided to call myself to verify.
The recorded voicemail said they are not currently accepting immigration status tips.
Good job, friends.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: βWe grew up together. Itβs no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.β

A tweet by Staff Sergeant Gonell, Aquilino. The tweet reads: 'The Republicans who WE, the officers protected and savedβthe ones that ran in fear for their lives on Jan 6 are giving tours to the marauders and treating them honorably, giving them a heroβs welcome instead of the officers who risked their lives for them. All while claiming they back the blue.'
The GOP in Congress are indeed an ungrateful set of cowardly miscreants.

Hegspeth is confirmed. Now What? He has no idea how to manage the Pentagon. So he is going to be dependent on his direct reports. Most of which require confirmation.
The Dems have to use whatever political skills they have to get qualified, rational people in these positions ?
Suggestions ?

Universal healthcare is βAmerica Firstβ
When the number one cause of bankruptcy in America is medical debt, when working class Americans go into debt because they get cancer, nothing is more pro-American than ensuring that doesnβt happen anymore.

A screenshot of a tweet by Matthew Chapman that reads: "Under Trump's executive order, every single person in America is now legally classified as female. All embryos begin by developing female sex organs, with male sex organs only replacing them at around 6 weeks of gestation." Below the tweet is a section of a document labeled "The White House," defining "female" and "male" based on reproductive cells and critiquing "gender ideology."

Post from 'Rev. Benjamin Cremer' states, "If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have deeply, deeply misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ."
So many have not learned them at all.

Hard truth for the Democratic Party: everything & everyone who led to this, from party leadership, the major consultants, the strategy, to the platform must all go.
There must be a total rebuild of the party, starting with funding, then policy.
This is a failure.
