Trump is using the military national guard ICE against all of us citizens snd non citizens. I don’t want to live where we are snatched off the street by masked persons in unmarked cars or subject to stop and searches & detained for no reason. Vote republicans out!

Maybe kamala should have made housing affordability the center of her campaign.

And national Dems are going out of their way to caveat their support and bring attention to the most controversial thing the guy said while leaving out the larger context that made said thing not nearly as bad as it sounds. Ace team of politicians

Trump and Musk cut $1 billion in funds that schools + food banks use to buy food from local producers.

These cuts hurt Arkansas farmers, our kids, and the poorest among us.

Why isn't Sarah using her close personal relationship with the president to protect Arkansas farmers, children, and families?

They deleted ALL the CDC datasets. I have a 160GB archive bittorrenting on my laptop right now compliments of the Datahoarder subreddit who managed to get copies of most of them. We're at the "citizens circulating censored facts using arcane internet protocols" stage of dystopia and it's only Wk6.

It took me a while to understand this and for that I apologize

It was unfathomable to me that either of those things were threatening to anyone

Certainly not a plurality of anyones

But Black Americans knew

What I’ve learned from being taught Black history from childhood is that It Did Happen Here. Not only have Black people lived under fascist structures for the vast majority of US history, but the Confederacy was the forerunner of fascist ideology and antidemocratic efforts before Europe tried.

The fundamental problem with the Union was that it didn’t have the will to punish the Confederacy. So here we are. Again.

The head of the FAA was fired because he held Elon Musk accountable for SpaceX safety omissions.

Donald and Elon don't care about regular Americans dying in plane crashes, they only care about themselves getting richer.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

Ohh have not read Alvin’s work. Is there a specific paper you’d recommend?

Also: hard to move Wilson up the rankings. Has there been a 20c prez whose reputation has tanked like his?

Trump suggests his plan for Gaza Strip is to β€˜clean out the whole thing’ | CNN Politics President Donald Trump indicated Saturday that he had spoken with the king of Jordan about a potential plan to construct housing and move more than 1 million Palestinians from the Gaza Strip to other ...

During the election there were many protest voters who refused to back Kamala due to Biden β€œsupport” for Israel.

I was dumbfounded by this position and responded that Trump would make Gaza a parking lot by the end of January.

Turns out it was a little earlier.

All we ever needed to know about #ElonMusk is that he is an unrepentant #Boer from #SouthAfrica. His politics is rooted in #whitesupremacy and that makes him a danger to people of color everywhere! πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™‚οΈ
