You wouldn’t know it from much mainstream reporting, but here’s facts:
β€œPublic opinion today is comparable to several past government shutdowns when Republicans have shouldered the bulk of the blame, including twice during Trump’s first presidential term.”

Starbucks CEO pay: $96 MILLION
Starbucks worker pay: $15,000

Coca-Cola CEO pay: $28 MILLION
Coca-Cola worker pay: $14,000

CEOs used to make like 20x the average worker.
In 2024, the average CEO earned 632x more.

The system is rigged.

Hey New Jersey! Energy bills are skyrocketing due to market forces and grid mismanagement, with more increases coming because of cuts in the Republican Big Ugly Bill.

Imagine working for FEMA and trying to help those after disasters and rebuild communities, then the next day, you're the Gestapo now. If employees don't accept, they're toast.

There is no bar too low for the criminal and terrorist organization formerly known as the US federal government.

It's hard to process the historic level of horror and heartbreak here. That the U.S. is complicit in accelerating this genocide is a mix of depressing, infuriating, and shameful.

State Dep't officials asked who, exactly, can qualify for the Trump administration's South Africa refugee program.

The answer, emailed days later by a top department official, was that program is intended for white people.

I've got capitulation, cowardice, and courage on my mind. I want to talk about CBS, Colbert, and Columbia - and what we can do to buck up waffling institutions. What do you want to talk about? Come raise it with us today at 3pm ET!

WILD story. An 82-year-old from Chile lost his green card. In June, he went to pick up a new one at a USCIS office. While there, he was handcuffed and detained by ICE.

An unknown caller claiming to be a lawyer told family she could help. Later, she said he’d died. Now he’s turned up β€” in Guatemala!

Trump and the Repub. Congress are decimating lives at scale. This woman’s destroyed (hopefully not permanently) dream is also a nightmare for all of us because we have a doctor shortage even now. Healthcare is now Trumpcare in America and it’s not going to be pretty. Learn how we’ll fight back.

This is completely unAmerican - the opposite of everything our founders fought for. I hope these "officers" feel every ounce of moral shame when it finally hits them - they are the BAD guys in this chapter of history, the Gestapo.

LEOs swear to uphold the Constitution, not trample it or us.
