Who needs corrupt, cruel MAGA politicians when we have weak, centrist Democrats willing to cave for lobbyists and throw their own party and base under the bus?

Kat Abughazaleh: "What we have seen in Broadview against protestors is horrible, we've been punched, dragged, thrown, shot with pepper balls - The reason we are protesting is because what is going on behind closed doors in that processing center is immeasurably worse than what we are dealing with."

the clown car arrives in the White House briefing room

FEMA will send $608 million to states to construct temporary immigrant detention centers, like Florida’s notorious “Alligator Alcatraz.”

Meanwhile, Trump is preparing to cut $1 billion in grants that help communities prep for disaster response.

Cruelty is always the priority.

It's a new Golden Age for corruption.

Today in Rhode Island, a federal judge told Trump to stop impounding funds allocated by Congress. It’s about more than just the money; it’s about making sure the president doesn’t make a grab for powers that belong to Congress under the Constitution. joycevance.substack.com/p/courts-to-...

BREAKING: Two jets collided at Scottsdale Airport in Arizona on Monday afternoon, killing at least one person and injuring others.

Since Trump took office, there’s been a deadly plane crash every few days. What’s happening?

True!!

Where’s President Musk’s Birth Certificate? Donald Trump handed the presidency to an African oligarch.

OK, now that the pants-wearing hierarchy in the White House is clear, I think it’s a good time to inquire again, just to make sure everything is constitutionally on the up-and-up:

This would be nuts even if they were gov’t employees with clearances: “Three of the sources said the DOGE personnel wanted to gain access to security systems and personnel files. Two of those sources said also they wanted access to classified information.” www.cnn.com/2025/02/02/p...

David Lynch’s family has called for a "worldwide group meditation" on Monday "to honor his legacy by spreading peace and love across the world."

All the BS all at once…
