Opinion | Stop Acting Like This Is Normal

“Democrats will face a choice: Join Republicans to fund a government that President Trump is turning into a tool of authoritarian takeover and vengeance or shut the government down.”

@ezraklein.bsky.social is correct: Democrats can’t vote to fund Trump’s autocratic takeover.

So it’s a banner day for suffering and death by Trump. He’s cutting aid for lifesaving vaccines in poor nations AND cutting $12 billion in mental health and substance abuse treatment in the US. There is no end to his cruelty.

So I may be slow, bear with me. Just realized that a major donor of the Heritage Foundation and Republican Party in NC is Art Pope. He owns Variety Wholesalers which owns Roses and Big Lots in NC. Time to shine the light on this source of dark money. www.desmog.com/art-pope/

Vulture with a tattered US flag in its beak

Do you think that the current administration wants to replace the eagle with a vulture?

Republican senators who spent the entire election distancing themselves from Project 2025 just voted to put its author in one of the most powerful positions in government.

Every Republican in the Senate just voted to confirm Russell Vought. We’re going to hold them accountable for every piece of the Project 2025 agenda he implements and all the harm it causes to the families they’re supposed to represent.

Trump can’t handle a crisis of any kind, because he is not a leader. Whether it be a plane crash or a pandemic, he will let us down and then pass the blame. Join @therickwilson.bsky.social and @mayaonstage.bsky.social on this week’s episode of The Breakdown:

This is a win! That said, this attempt to stop grants is not over. Like a snake, they will recoil and strike more strategically the next time. We need to be prepared!! We need stories as to how withdrawal from life saving agreements will harm US taxpayers and children. No Laurel resting!

Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

This hurts us all. Gutting science will not stop science, only delay life saving treatments for all. And for what? For petty retribution and taking funds from our health to pay for billionaire tax cuts…call your senators now!!!

And tell them the hundreds of employees, like in the grants office and staff paid by university overhead, who could be left high and dry as their job depends on grant too!

Mike Johnson is the shameful one… not a Christian, not even close.

Sadly, am not surprised. He’s a major anti vaxxer. Has been for decades and not gonna stop now.

This quote today in the Bulwark caught my attention. The unleashed hate that others deserve to be destroyed… how did we get here?
“After all: If a guy is willing to rape a woman, surely he can be counted on to visit destruction on Democrats, or woke generals, or whoever.”

Governor Stein is committed to taking care of our beautiful state and all of its people. 💙

Breaking News: Appeals court allows release of special counsel report on Trump’s Jan. 6 case

While I try to be respectful , the only word that comes to mind is “liar”.

Very good point!

🤔

Question: So, I’ve read somewhere that if we want to lower ratings on Jan 20, we all turn on the tv to channels NOT covering the inauguration. Is that true?

Once again, Liz shows us how to speak the truth with dignity. 👏👏👏
