The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed...
"How will you pay for it?"
The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts...
"How much do you need?"
It doesn't have to be this way.
I am so tired of this classless, clueless embarrassment of a president.
Holy shit. Crude oil futures going nuts tonight.
we knew this is what had happened, in our souls we knew it had happened exactly like this even as we joked about it, but it's insane to get confirmation
it'll be hard to get enough people to remember DOGE to build a movement to put them in jail with ICE but we gotta do it
Neighbors of Portland, OR ICE facility sue over tear gas, win injunction. "...[when] federal agents... deploy chemical munitions during protests, [it seeps] into their [homes,] causing health problems. Another plaintiff reported she’s been hit by stray rubber bullets..." katu.com/news/local/f...
Staff at the nation’s largest ICE concentration camp, located north of El Paso, Texas, have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to "die by suicide," according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.

Never forget that this what The Washington Post said when Noem was nominated.
The fuck kind of answer is this

Would you be surprised to hear that none of the leading American political reporters are talking about this? They are acting like this never happened. Because it reveals the state of mind of our Commander in Chief. And that’s a taboo subject in America.
Homeland Security wants Social Media sites to expose Anti-ICE Accounts!!!!
The Government is trampling on our CIVIL LIBERTIES!!!!!

It’s really crazy how much I’ve been agreeing with Rep. Thomas Massie recently!
On March 3, Senator Mark Kelly joins VoteVets for an exclusive briefing on Trump's war in Iran, attacks on veterans, and more.
Those who stand for nothing will fall for anything.
A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.
We mustn’t let this war do so.
Kaine on Fox: "The president can act to defend US against imminent attack without congressional approval. But if you're going to initiate war, you need Congress. The president not only did not come to Congress, he acted without even notification to the vast majority of us. This is an illegal war."
"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."
-Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953
if every member of this administration isn't impeached and imprisoned, if every centrist democrat who supports or isn't willing to fight the litany of evil committed by the administration isn't pressured or voted out, then we are all truly doomed
the US will increase its dependency on food imports from Mexico this year. We have hemorrhaged so many of our high-skilled, migrant farm workers that our production will slip, causing American industry to atrophy. it takes a long time to rebuild those logistics

Mark Warner: "I saw no intelligence that Iran was on the verge of launching any kind of preemptive strike against the United States. None."
I took part in a panel at the recent Principles First summit, and was overjoyed to share the stage with Jessica Riedl and Francis Fukuyama, and the whole thing is available online, if you want to watch.

Now you know why we are where we are today. Last year, he said we destroyed Iran's nuclear capabilities. That was another lie.
I am closely monitoring the ongoing military operations in Iran. International military actions have a direct and profound impact on Maryland’s families and communities.
I served in Afghanistan and I’ve seen who pays the price when Washington rushes into conflict.
