Acknowledging the reality! Amen.

Ya, can't quite figure out why Canadians don't want to travel there, or do business. 🙄🤦🏼‍♀️😡

MSNBC dug up the clip of former Trump Sec Def Mark Esper saying that Trump asked him in 2020 to shoot protesters -- an order Pete Hegseth wouldn't rule out following if Trump asked him to do it today

Library of Congress staff just showed what resistance looks like. After Trump abruptly fired Dr. Carla Hayden, the respected Librarian of Congress, he tried to install Todd Blanche, his former personal lawyer and current Deputy Attorney General, as acting librarian. Staff weren’t having it.

Q: Who said this?

"Musk ... is a HIGH-RANKING government official. ... The White House has designated Musk a 'special government employee' IN CHARGE OF Establishing and Implementing the President's Department of Government Efficiency ('DOGE')."

Ans: Musk's own attorneys in a Delaware court filing.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

DOJ is removing experienced, non-political career lawyers in key positions. Yesterday was ethics. Today, it’s national security. This does not bode well for good government or public safety.

Enormous response to Mike’s post. If you haven’t read it…

5-4 was absurd. This was a clear 9-0.

Worry about the Court.

just taking tonight to really appreciate all these years of journalistic tut-tut-tutting about how over-the-top it was for anyone to focus on trump's affinity for russia and putin.

If Russia wants peace, they should end the invasion.

The elderly who’ve worked their entire lives to get $800 a month on Social Security aren’t bankrupting America. It’s tax-evading billionaires like Musk and Trump who are bleeding this country dry.

Republicans pushing forward on Medicaid changes, despite potential political fallout House Republicans signaled they’re going full steam ahead on significant changes to Medicaid, despite pressure from Democrats and even some moderates in their party.

Medicaid has always been on the chopping block. MAGAts don't seem to get how much they are actually dependent on these programs. They see themselves as the deserving poor, not understanding that it doesn't work like that.

The GOP passed a budget resolution last night that will gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs — as 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Why? To finance tax cuts for the top 1%.

We have socialism in this country for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

". . . and that's why I voted to confirm the people he's duped to key national security and intelligence roles."

MAGA R's can perpetrate any lie they like about the budget/reconcilliation. You know who doesn't buy it? The Fed. The bond market.

What the ever loving fuck is going on?

I’d say it is impossible to explain. No almost about it

A reminder that Elon Musk's corporations were promised $3 billion across nearly 100 different contracts last year with 17 federal agencies.

While DOGE cuts essential services for you, Musk is getting a taxpayer-funded windfall.

Canada assumes leadership of The Free World.

Sometimes I think about hopeful films which suggest that there are always alternatives to war and misery, that we can choose peace, dialogue, and genuine empathy. Nice examples are Arrival, The Grand Illusion, and Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind. These are good films, they mean something to me.
