I dislike the word “stupid” because I know so many brilliant hard working Hispanics. I wonder more about where they get their info and could we impact that source??

I suspect that there was a lot of “machismo” that drove the vote both among Black AND Hispanic males. Trump (+Elon) looked “strong” against a female, brainy woman. Wondering if any have drawn different conclusions yet.

33%-37% of non-Cuban Hispanics voted for Trump. THAT, I cannot wrap my head around. Cubans were around 58%. Have any “seen the light”??

Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:

Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.

I find this so incredibly hard to read. While children are being terrorized with tanks and tear gas, we should “support ICE”?Why not work on that long overdue immigration bill that allows for humane consistency of immigrants and codifies the “rules” so they can’t be changed with every admin?
Acyn (@acyn.bsky.social) reposted
Torres: If the bill is so popular, why are the cuts largely delayed until after the midterm election? And if the bill surgically targets fraud, waste and abuse, why is it necessary to set up a $50 billion stabilization fund for rural hospitals?

The young people should be informed, run for office, create the future they want. But it is ageism to assume that “all” older representatives don’t resonate with “any”young people. Step up and primary anyone you want, but it should be people’s choice, not the DNC.

I would expect this extraordinary own goal by Trump immigration czar Tom Homan to show up in a court filing soon. “No US citizen child was deported. Deported means ordered by an immigration judge.” This would appear to be a confession that Abrego Garcia was trafficked abroad, rather than deported.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.
