Meg’s musings

🫢 😳 😧 🤢 🤮 😡

I have an even worse feeling about THIS:

You may lose SNAP benefits and health insurance, but don’t worry because Trump is building a $350 million ballroom just for you because he loves you.

As Rev. Kenneth Copeland once said about his latest private jet: Jesus wanted him to have it.

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families?

Now you know.

It's maddening that there's always unlimited money for war and corporate greed but the moment we bring up healthcare, poverty, or protecting the planet, suddenly the question becomes, 'How will we pay for it? Paul Avellino

If you have it please donate cash to the food banks. $10 in their hands will feed more people than the $10 worth of canned goods you can buy for retail prices. Also check on your elders. Many of them will not admit they rely on these programs so grocery gift cards or a surprise bag of staples

Each and every American should be very concerned there’s an anonymous person paying our military.

I don’t think there’s any intentions of opening the government 🤬

That's why they don't GAF what happens to the country. As long as their grifting can continue, to hell with everyone else.

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

House is over!

"The evil Jew is funding the entire US left" is a piece of rank, obvious antisemitism that we have just collectively decided to accept in public, because IOKYR.

Democrats Fell Prey To The Same Toxic Dynamics That Destroyed Mainstream News Instead of fighting smears, they appeased the smear merchants.

Many of my liberal peers see clearly how mainstream outlets have ruined their already imperiled businesses by capitulating to bad-faith right-wing criticism. They have a harder time seeing that the Democratic Party has fallen victim to the same kind of self-sabotage.

Donald Trump and the rise of tribal epistemology Journalism cannot be neutral toward a threat to the conditions that make it possible.

This is what I was trying to describe with the term "tribal epistemology." Tribal identity is primary; empirical truth, as we think of it, is subsidiary. "The left is illegitimate" is fundamental -- whether this or that accusation against the left is technically "true" is neither here nor there.

See the difference? 👀

With deep love and respect. What our ancestors faced when Europe invaded, murdered, raped, kidnapped, and destroyed a way of life that was in harmony with Mother Earth and all her dwellers.

Heartwrenching 💔

Love this so much

The US federal attack on Portland has resulted in the best advertisement for a city that I have ever seen. Round-the-clock joy, community solidarity and silliness that much of the West has lost and longs for.

Why doesn't the media report on this?

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

Spot-fucking-on. 🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯👇

I don't understand why I see things so differently. I see a health insurance industry that thinks it's entitled to charge people 1/3rd of their income for healthcare. That industry shouldn't be "fixed." It should be burned to the ground and its ashes pissed on.

It’s time for soft secession How blue states can use their economic clout to stand up to Trump’s agenda—starting with California.
