The rich will blow up the world rather than pay more tax Trump, Truss and the economics of La La Land

The rich will blow up the world rather than pay more tax! β€˜You can say that in the US in particular there is a talent shortage on the liberal wing of politics. Progressive movements are simply not producing politicians who can speak to and for ordinary people.’ ~

NYT: After the Uvalde TX school shooting Congress passed $1B in grants for kids' mental health care.
Trump cancelled the grant because stemming gun violence in schools is no longer in β€œthe best interest of the federal government.”

Even *if* you accept Stephen Miller’s (textually, historically, and morally indefensible) claim that undocumented immigrants are not entitled to due process, you’d *still* need due process to ensure that the individuals at issue are, in fact, undocumented.

His argument fails even on its own terms.

The Prime Minister of a sovereign country came to the United States today and actually had to tell the President of the United States - to his face - that his sovereign country wasn’t for sale. And would never be for sale.

That actually happened today.

As we look at an administration that will undoubtedly reactivate the draft because enlistment numbers have plummeted, they are actively stripping benefits from veterans.

My dad was drafted. His stomach cancer was directly tied to his job burning munitions during Vietnam.

Resist.

Religion is a freedom.
Let’s keep it that way

No Ten Commandments In Schools

You’re allowed to let your religion control your own life but you’re not allowed to impose your religion on others to control them

Separation of church & state is essential to a free society.

This man was courageous enough to stand up to Trump and Vance.

So it's important to post this message and photo to 27 million people.

Don't just "like" it -- that only means that YOU'VE seen it.

Postb it, blow it up and get it out there!

Putting this out there in case any federal employees are scrolling through.

You aren’t powerless. You aren’t alone. There are some who want you to speak out & can help.

If you were really looking for fraud at SSA, you wouldn’t need write access. You WOULD need write access if you wanted to CREATE fraud where none existed as a pretext to shut down Social Security.
