A SSRS/CNN poll showing 61% people think Trump has gone too far using the power of the presidency and 57% think he's gone too far deporting immigrants.

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.

Our animal family and wildlife neighbors are too often left out of the thought process for human activity. We can and should do better. Thank you for this excellent reminder! ✨🀫🐾

Goodness, I’ve never seen so much head-rubbing! Baby Dog is surely becoming fluent in cat language. However, his floppy ears do hinder the process a bit. 🀭

Trump still has not followed a court order to release SNAP funds for millions of people.

Meanwhile, he hosted a "Great Gatsby" themed party at Mar-a-Lago this weekend.

And he posted seven times about renovating a White House bathroom with marble and gold.

Priorities.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Good News: A Court Rejects Trump's Effort To Suppress The Vote In March, Donald Trump issued an executive order titled β€œPRESERVING AND PROTECTING THE INTEGRITY OF AMERICAN ELECTIONS.” Predictably, it was designed to do anything but that.

There is some good news on the voting front today and it’s important news. It shows us that the courts can still lead, and the rule of law is not broken. No matter what Trump wants you to think. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Grocery store are privately owned businesses, aren’t they? In which case they can offer discounts to anyone on anything they choose. Am I missing something?

NBC's new poll say the most important issue for deciding who to support for Congress is: "Protecting constitutional rights/protecting democracy."

I agree with the sentiment here. Wealth & its trappings are all that matter to him.πŸ€‘

But in this instance the catch is this is NOT his personal property. It’s the White House, and no matter how much he abuses it, it belongs to the people of the United States. And it always will.

ICE and Border Patrol’s use of tear gas injures, sickens and tests the law Federal immigration agents say chemical agents are needed to disperse violent protesters. But videos also show them firing at people in aggressive and β€˜unorthodox’ ways.

The people doing this to our cities & our people are Americans. They need to be shamed. Ostracized. Shunned.

These goons don’t even know enough to realize that pressing a human body face down on pavement, with the weight of an adult man (or several men) constricting their upper body, will cut off the airflow to their lungs. Or maybe they just don’t care.πŸ’€ It’s a wonder nobody has been smothered to death.
