Left-handed, left of center, & counting on being Left Behind. Left coast, natch. Utterly disgusted by brazenly corrupt GOP + weak response of many Democrats. Fascism incoming. 🀬 No interest in sales, self-promotion, & accounts that never interact.

Like I've said before, if you have any doubts about climate change, just go to a super-boring insurance conference and listen to the super-boring panels where they dryly talk about the growing threat of disasters so catastrophic and unpredictable in scope they simply cannot be insured at any price.

Yesterday, the Deportation Data Project posted new FOIA data on ICE arrests through October 15 and it’s staggering how much it instantly disproves every claim the Trump admin has made about targeting β€œcriminals” during its splashy arrest operations.

Here’s arrests in Illinois since April.

For the next time you hear Trump say he inherited an inflation mess.

A few reasons:
Some are so busy trying to live, they don’t know what’s going on.
Some won’t be motivated until they are affected themselves.
Some are waiting for someone to save us.
Some are overwhelmed with the amount of shit happening, they don’t know what to do.
Everyday is a new nightmare.

Good list. Might add: Some are in an information bubble & don’t know it, hearing β€œnews” only from Fox, clergy, family, & social media algorithms

For the same reason they don't ask how a 200%, 400% or 600% drug price reduction is possible.
There is a vacuum of journalistic integrity, dignity or solidarity in the press corp. They grovel for access while their colleagues are insulted so that their bosses can sell advertising.

There is no clearer justification for the video put out by 6 Democrats to not follow unlawful orders than this.

As a reminder: The USIP building was raided and taken over by DOGE (with assistance from federal and local law enforcement) despite being an independent agency and owner of the building. Litigation is ongoing, but Trump does not own this building.

SCOOP: Sources tell me Donald Trump's name was added to the exterior of the US Institute of Peace building ahead of Thursday's peace agreement signing between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), which will be held inside the building. Confirming if it's been officially renamed.

🚨 CNBC on latest jobs numbers: "A big miss on ADP payrolls. The private payroll company saying private payrolls shed 32,000 workers in Nov. That's the 4th negative number in past 6 months. The estimate was for +40,000, so the street was off ... this may be coming from being hammered by the tariffs"

They’re doing appropriate evaluation & monitoring for his observed behavior. What’s hilarious is that we wouldn’t know about the cognitive tests if he could keep himself from mentioning them!

Ilhan Omar rose from a single parent immigrant family where her dad drove a taxi to her current position. Trump is the kid of a racist wealthy slum landlord who headed multiple failed businesses. One of these people is the example of failed ambition and it's not her.
What a racist piece of shit.

I’m a retired primary care physician & conducted the brief cognitive screen regularly. If the patient or their family/etc or the provider has concerns, or the brief screen is abnormal, that’s when to move on to a more detailed tool.
