DisTrumption

Too many are cynical of oligarch motives at this point. Work on campaign finance reform first, then on candidate expansion. Without reform, this just turns into very expensive election cycles where the average Joe no longer matters.

You don’t actually answer the question. Seems like you’re politics-ready!

Come on, Mark. Answer the questions!

What happened to states’ rights, Kristi?

ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not st our borders. It is in the White House.

FUCK ICE, with the intensity of one billion suns.

Because Russia and Musk have created a psychological warfare engine which has pummeled our society.

Boycotts are taking hold. Protests are on the rise. Federal courts are hitting back. The Trump-Musk-Vance regime's popularity is plunging and DOGE is losing credibility. In these dark times, it's important to recognize that people are fighting back. Join them.

DOGE dumped a bucket of legos out and called it analysis. These guys don’t even understand the data yet. Analysis, at its most basic, must progress thru 4 steps. Please reject a bucket of legos as “facts”.

Feels about right.

Domestic terrorism, defined.

We already have legislation. They are violating the Federal WARN act, not sure the private sector will remain compliant if the public sector disregards. Once employees realize there is no safety net, the employer/employee relationship fails, and the economy will fail. Recession is inevitable.

Last night Rachel Maddow showed how Trump, who regularly boasts about conversations he has with world leaders, gets oddly squeamish about discussing his communications with Putin.

This guy is unreal. He is calling predatory businessmen “good people” and what the CFPB has done for working Americans as “hurting the good people”. It’s clear whose side he’s on…and it’s NOT the American people!

Listen friends - gather your hope where you can. People showed up in all 50 states on a moments notice. Voicemail boxes of senators are filling up. Lawsuits are being filed.

Look at all the good people.

And do not forget to take care of yourselves. Seriously. This is a long haul.

“I’ve got an idea. Let’s attack the most unstable part of the Middle East immediately after firing everyone in federal law-enforcement”, said no sane person ever.

There is still beauty in this world

Germany protesting

Nearly 250,000 people in Berlin showed up to protest fascism and the Musk backed AfD party.

Anti-ICE protesters in California have shut down the 101 freeway in Los Angeles marching towards City Hall.

What’s the difference between a gov controlling an algorithm, silently eliminating reach for things it doesn’t like, vs the same gov using its power, to demand that the platform remove the things it doesn’t like.?

In China they are overt. With TikTok in the US, they control silently

This is the GOP’s long con on full display.

This is chilling. In September, as Elon Musk began buying Trump a presidency after Trump promised him a federal department he could use to destroy his enemies, Trump agents at the Heritage Foundation began filing FOIA requests to find anyone in government who had ever mentioned Musk in any document.

I don't want to sound alarmist or anything, but I'm not sure it's a good idea to skip FBI background checks and bury congressional ethics reports about nominees to the most important posts in the federal government.

Looking forward to learning how appointing an accused child-sex-trafficker as AG and a suspected Russian asset as DNI will lower the price of eggs

People who say they care about women’s and girls’ sports are noticeably quiet about how eliminating the Department of Education would end federal oversight of Title IX enforcement of the equal existence of women’s and girls’ sports
