Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"

There are many things Americans generally agree on (although maybe not in the same order): 1) Freedom is worth fighting for 2) Use tax $$ wisely 3) Reward hard work 4) Defend those who cannot defend themselves 5) Be kind 6) Honor veterans 7) Be honest (don’t cheat) 8) Be prepared 9) We love nature

We put corn in everything from makeup to Coke to subsidize American corn growers. Idk how corn growers will feel if corn is removed from Coke to make way for Brazilian or Chinese cane sugar. 78% of farmers voted Trump…

Mike Johnson just said if you are for reducing the deficit, this bill is for you. The bill adds 3-4 trillion dollars to the deficit. They just lie.

🚨 WSJ: TRUMP HAS PRIVATELY APPROVED ATTACK PLANS ON IRAN, FINAL ORDER ON PAUSE
The New Yorker (@newyorker.com) reposted
The Trump Administration’s recent attacks against lawmakers all have something in common: in each case, video evidence directly contradicted or undermined the Administration’s account of what happened. Read more: nyer.cm/KCcx0PG

Everyone should say it: The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism. Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trumpist movement and translates them into policy. But that's not what's interesting about Miller. It's not brains. It's bile.

In case you're wondering... it's been 17 days since a reporter was added to a Signal group chat where our government officials were sharing war plans. And nobody has been fired... Don't stop talking about SignalGate

Despite DOGE "spending cut" claims - and reminiscent of his 1st term - Trump's hoping to host a four mile Kim Jong Un-style military parade on June 14th, his 79th birthday. The day would also be used to honor 250 years of the U.S. Army. apnews.com/article/mili...

Crockett: "If we are gonna talk about efficiency, let's talk about the fact that as of March 30, Trump's golfing has cost us approximately $26 million. And the last time I checked, we're not getting anything in return for that ... he decided he was going to golf instead of receiving four heroes."

Closing rural post offices will do the same thing that closing rural schools has done: Empty out rural towns. Why? To sell off farmland for rock bottom prices to the oligarchs. Water and mineral rights and CAFOs polluting with impunity. It’s been the plan for decades.

"The public is going to suffer terribly as a result of this," the source wrote to NPR. "Local field offices will close, hold times will increase, and people will be sicker, hungry, or die when checks don't arrive or a disability hearing is delayed just one month too late."

Just watched NBC News to see if they would cover this. NOPE. Not a word about the Treasury takeover, just the tariffs. We are the ones who have to spread the news about Musk's coup.

I called each of the Senators on the Public Safety committee to ask that they vote no on SB 72. SB 72 is a bill to offer bounties for immigrant roundups. Four of the mailboxes were full. I talked to two Legislative Aides who said they have received hundreds of emails & calls against the bill.

Important to emphasize that this is projection. It is the radical right that has been committing violence in the U.S., not those who support liberal democracy.
