Truth.

The governments that starved their own people in need were never the good guys. No matter how much you twist yourself in knots to justify cutting SNAP when emergency funds exist, this is an act of evil against our fellow Americans by the Trump Administration and the Republican Doormat Congress.

Tweets in which Tarrant County GOP chair Bo French says Nov. 1 is "National Chimp Out Day."

The leader of the GOP in Tarrant County - Texas' third-largest county and the largest Republican-held county in America - has spent this week openly spewing racial slurs and mocking people who will lose access to food stamps on Nov. 1.

Breaking on MSNBC:

Two federal prosecutors have been placed on leave at the direction of the White House after filing a sentencing memo seeking 27 months in prison for a pardoned Jan. 6 rioter who brought illegal guns and ammunition to President Obama's house in 2023.

This is disgusting. Blatant corruption at the highest level in plain sight and Oversight Chair Comer Pyle morphs into a combination of Mr. Magoo and Sgt. Schultz.

This is the third U.S. Attorney found to be unlawfully appointed. The other two are Sigal Chattah and Alina Habba. Their indictments stand because they were signed by other prosecutors. Not true for Lindsey Halligan.

Schmitt on political violence: "Let's be clear: this isn't a both sides thing right now. This is happening on the left...look at what happened when the Catholic school kids were being shot at in church" (The Annunciation shooting was not an act of political violence and it's vile to claim otherwise)

Gaza children dying as they wait for Israel to enable evacuations Around 15,000 Gazans are waiting for urgent medical treatment, according to the UN.

Silence is violence.

So no terrorism then?

I really like how the Supreme Court is just letting Trump dismantle the Department of Education but wouldn't let Biden forgive student debt. Funny how that works.

Republicans confirm the first judge of Trump’s second term — and she’s a doozy Whitney Hermandorfer is the first far-right judicial nominee to be confirmed during the president’s second term, and she won’t be the last.

Why would Germany deserve them?

I think the purpose of this post is to get folks, especially the media, to focus on something, anything, other than real problems such as the terrible response to flooding in Texas, the Epstein story, cutting food aid, and decimating health care in rural areas (remember that?)

Trump threatens to strip citizenship from a native-born US citizen because he doesn’t like her speech.
I hope everyone on Wall Street and Silicon Valley who voted for Trump because he promised lower taxes is proud of themselves

2 men wearing 'ICE' vests rob motorist at gunpoint in Milton. What to know, plus safety tips If you are unsure if the person pulling you over is a law enforcement officer, call 911 to verify.

A man was robbed and assaulted in Milton, Delaware, by two masked men impersonating ICE agents www.delawareonline.com/story/news/c...

I don’t care if he doesn’t back this up with further action, in a normal time, this is a major scandal, showing the president of the United States has nothing but contempt for the first amendment, basic rights, and his fellow citizens and will act accordingly in various ways.

This is not a time for politics, political parties, or politicians.

This is a time for genuine hardcore true-blue red-blooded Americans.

Revolution is the solution.

I guess not. 🤷🏼‍♂️

It's a stunning way to put it and, at least in this country, the only way to keep many truly needy people from following through the cracks.

Yet many of the most outwardly "pious" are now the ones most eager to take every support away from "the least of these".

I wish I could like this 100x.... Jesus flipped tables in the seat of religious power and worship *twice* so I think He meant it, yeah? 🙏

He’s TACOing on his TACO.

Good God, that is the heart of evil

For it all to make sense of why Qatar would give Trump a $400 + million jet, please read another well written, well sourced article from Seth Abramson. The frigging media should just follow behind him, reporting what Seth just wrote and give him the long overdue credit he deserves.

one of the great disconnects around public policy: it is often incredibly expensive to do invasive anti-fraud measures and you end up spending more money than the actual cost of the fraud you're preventing

and of course it makes the user experience miserable every single time

Re: carrying the cross, only 1 of His disciples died of old age, all but Judas faced persecution. Few popes were part of mendicant orders, Leo XIV now 2nd in a row. How will Catholic PayPal mafia dudes respond to pushback on their global oligarchy? And can this papal admin resist their corruption?
