I spent the day reading Project 2025. Is anyone in the media reporting on how the directives, memos & emails coming out of the administration are verbatim from the Heritage Foundation/Project 2025?

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

There is simply no plausible argument that the president has the constitutional authority to refuse to spend appropriated funds because he doesn’t like how the money is being spent.

The legality of policy impoundments is just not a close question.

Never forget that first and foremost, Trump is a criminal enterprise that uses fake culture war outrage and bogus religiosity as a smoke screen as they raid the public coffers, run scams, and privatize/auction our infrastructure to their corporate buddies.

Post from Janel Comeau, “backsliding into fascism just 80 years after WWII is like failing an open-book test in a room where the answers are written on the board and also being constantly read out loud over a loudspeaker.”

And yet here we are.

We could’ve had a president who reads and supports small business. Sigh…

I think it speaks volumes that right wingers criticize bluesky for being “liberal” and “left wing”, when it’s really just that hate speech isn’t allowed.

Every time I read a post about a new unqualified cabinet position appointment, I follow a zen account on here that posts pics of dogs or nature. Always seek balance in life!

Whenever I see a stack of books for sale, donation, or recommendations online my only thought is: how many of that stack have I read? And then I give myself a little pat on the back when it is 1 or more
