Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it.

He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted.

Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.

It’s amazing how much existing institutions and the people profiting from Trump’s presidency lean toward a trivialization and normalization of something that in any other context nearly everyone would treat with horror

Dem reps really need to hold daily press conferences fact-checking this admin's blatant lies!! It's one thing they have the power to do. They need to be relentless and loud in their pushback. Why are they so quiet??!! Gaaaahhhh...

I was so sorry to hear of his passing. Yes, he truly was a giant. I, too, was lucky enough to see him once in the early aughts in Chicago with Herbie Hancock and Dave Holland.

Trump is now going after Jack Smith.

You know who seems safe from his retribution: Merrick Garland. Because he did JACK SHIT. Trump not being pissed at him is, low key, an indictment of his entire tenure.

If average HealthCare.gov plan premiums double in a few months due to Republican inaction, 4 million people will lose health insurance.

Without health coverage, many will get sicker or skip care entirely.

So much for β€œMake America Healthy Again.”

P.S. I meant to say thanks for posting that thread, too. It was my introduction to Ashley C. Ford. I'm following her now.

After watching the interview (I went to YT), I see how spot-on Ms. Ford's thread is. Watching the interview, vs. just listening to it, made her point that much clearer.

Thank you, Diedrich! I've been hearing about it, but now I must listen to it. I am a huge admirer of Coates, so I'm interested in hearing his responses to Klein...

Trump β€˜Determined’ the U.S. Is Now in a War With Drug Cartels, Congress Is Told

Trump doesn’t get to β€œdetermine” we’re at warβ€”that’s Congress’s job. Check the Constitution, Art. 1, Sec 8, Clause 11.Β 

And while he’s talking tough out of one side of his mouth, he’s disbanding the DOJ task force fighting cartels with the other.

This isn’t about public safety. It’s a power grab.

President Trump and Congressional Republicans just shut down the government because they refused to stop your health care costs from rising.

Let me be clear: Republicans are in charge of the White House, House, and Senate. This is their shutdown.
