The president is openly bragging that he's an enacted an authoritarian Orbanization of the nation' media.
😕🤷🏼
FCC's Carr warns broadcasters while reposting Trump comments on Iran reports reut.rs/3NE8vCL
This is another insane violation of the Emoluments Clause.
The below poster should be used against Andy Bigg’s run for Gov of AZ!
The midterms will be about GOP’s support for Trump, his narcissism, his pathetic cabinet, ICE’s Gestapo tactics and Trump’s chaos in the U.S. & internationally. Time to:
DUMP TRUMP & BIGGS!!!
Repost if you agree #BlueCrew
Meanwhile, in Vermont…
People are getting gassed for protesting ICE. Yep, that’s still going on. America sure is great, isn’t it?
#Vermont #ICE #SouthBurlington
Jeff Merkley: "Trump has turned ICE into secret police. We now have secret police in America. The basic mark is - they show up in unmarked vans, no uniforms, no judicial warrants, grab people, and prevent them from having access to communication with families or lawyers."
A year ago we were supposed to be getting $2,000 rebate checks, DOGE was going to find $2 trillion in waste to balance the budget, we were going to pay no income taxes because tariffs would pay for everything, gas and home electric bills would be cut in half, and no new wars.
BRENNAN: The US is suspending some sanctions on Russia. But doesn't Russia financially benefit?
WRIGHT: Right now we're worried about Iran & US consumers
B: Russia was helping Iran
W: Well, there's been rumors. We don't know
B: Iranian drones have Russian parts in them. They're sharing intel
The Ellisons’ new Paramount/Warner Bros mega-media monopoly would never pass muster if America still had antitrust enforcers.
So who can stop this? State attorneys general. Here's how. ⬇️

Obama: Every day you wake up to things you just didn’t think were possible. Each day we’re told by those in high office to fear each other. Everywhere we see greed and bigotry being celebrated, and bullying and mockery masquerading as strength.
And this is all he had to replace Noem.
Capitol Hill Republicans are about to confront a staggering price tag for Trump’s Middle East war.
Some GOP lawmakers are hearing estimates that the Pentagon is spending as much as $2 billion a day.
Exclusive: Russia is providing Iran with targeting information to attack American forces in the Middle East, the first indication that another major U.S. adversary is participating — even indirectly — in the war.
Wow did something happen in the US in January 2025?
Good news that the execrable Kristi Noem has been fired, but Trump should really be firing Stephen Miller, the primary engineer of the vile ethnic reengineering agenda and murderously violent civic tensions that are sucking all of them into a bottomless political sinkhole, Trump included.
Well would you look at that
US taxpayers will now have to pay $700 million a month in interest for every month Trump refuses to refund tariffs under the Supreme Court ruling. So much winning.
Crockett tells supporters the race isn’t over: ‘People have been disenfranchised’
WATCH — @senpeterwelch walks through a no-bid $143,000,000 contract that went to @KristiNoem’s spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin’s husband’s company that had just been formed.
She should be impeached for this outrageous scandal alone.
Yet it’s barely a blip in this corrupt regime.
There have been over 200 complaints from service members alleging that commanders at more than 30 military installations have framed the war with Iran as all part of God's divine plan and that Trump was anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon & mark Christ's return.
Seems like the media should at least express some curiosity about this.

A goodbye note to co-workers from veteran CBS News producer Mary Walsh:
"We've been told to aim our reporting at a particular part of the political spectrum. Honestly, I don't know how to do that."

This is a rotten deal that the Trump regime has rubber stamped.
State AGs must step in and block it.
Hottest Core PPI since last March.
@cnbc.com
There are two explanations for the Trump Admin’s Russia’s policy: 1. This admin is secretly aligned with Putin and lying about that to the world and the American people, or 2. they are incredibly naive fools who ignore overwhelming evidence that contradicts their worldview.
The Ellisons are gobbling up the media ecosystem to please Trump. Oligarchy in service of authoritarianism.
It is already very late, folks. 🇺🇸
I’ve heard a lot of things on C-SPAN, but that call was haunting. A brutal reminder of the real-world toll.
