The real reason Trump is deploying the military into US cities Yes, it's a distraction. Yes, it's an authoritarian power grab. But it's also more than that.

"Trumpโ€™s second term is about correcting the errors of his first. In 2020, Trumpโ€™s plan to seize voting machines was blocked from within the government, but the WH is now staffed by loyalists. And with Trump deploying the military to US cities, he'll have boots on the ground to execute his plans."

On Juneteenth, we celebrate Black freedom, resilience, culture, and the enduring strength of community across generations. We acknowledge our nationโ€™s full history and the long, ongoing fight for freedom and justice for Black Americans.

With the tragic assassination of a Minnesota Democratic leader, Iโ€™m going to underline this point again.

Guys, it's the oligarchs. If you want to blame someone for 2024, blame the oligarchs. Anyone telling you to blame someone else is part of the oligarchy. Dark money has been to blame since citizens united.

I stopped watching all mass media in 2017. Dropped cable completely.

The "actual reporting to overt propaganda ratio" is 1:5 most of the time now.

Plenty of good alternative sources for news (mostly print), but one must do the work of vetting them. And that's fine.

MSM is a dinosaur...

We Need to Talk about Joe Biden People are laying into him for being old and sick. This is unconscionable. Worse still: They're forgetting his heroism.

We Need to Talk about Joe Biden. This is great analysis by Virginia Heffernan at her Substack. She gets it absolutely right! open.substack.com/pub/virginia...

Senator Tim Scott: Sickle cell research is important to African-Americans. But I want to be clear that this isnโ€™t DEI!

Will you commit that research involving minority populations will continue?

RFK Jr.: Well we cut one of them, because it *was* DEI.

DeLAURO: Are you planning to break the law by impounding appropriated funds?

RFK Jr: If you appropriate the funds, I'm going to spend them

D: We have! You're cutting the NIH by $18b. Congress appropriated those funds. How can you justify cutting billions from the biomedical research budget?

When we say we want Democrats in the fightโ€”this is it.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social hit the Senate floor blasting Trump for selling out U.S. security for billion-dollar bribes and a private jet.

Then he took to the airwaves, not to sell a book, but to sound the alarm and call us to action.
