The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Today is the National Park Service’s birthday! 🥳🏞️ You know what would be a great birthday gift? Not firing staff or cutting funds from the agency responsible for keeping our public lands pristine and accessible!

It isn’t normal for a president to repeatedly threaten the use of military force against American citizens. Treating the National Guard as a political pawn disrespects those who serve and undermines public trust in our military.

Because it’s about an authoritarian takeover, not crime. It’s about fear and force.

Because it’s about “crime fighting” as much as DOGE was about “efficiency, waste, fraud, and abuse”. It’s about taking advantage of citizens, subverting the authority of the U.S. Constitution and demolishing the rule of law and our institutions.

The good news is once the J6 terrorist gets settled as trump's new head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) inflation will magically go to zero & 100% of people will be out of debt. Maybe 500%. Even 1,200 or 1,500% of people will be out of debt. #PedoInChief

What we see happening in real time is actually part of Martial Law. Oh, it hasn’t been officially declared, but his federal takeover plans for cities across the nation…under the cloak of “attacking crime,” is pre-positioning for when he does. It will happen prior to the November elections. Watch.

Meiselas: One of those headlines I had to reread. We’re not allowing the president of Taiwan into the U.S.? Our ally? Trump caved to China’s demand and blocked him. MAGA screamed Dems were weak on China—then did exactly what they fear-mongered about.

So it turns out the holocaust was only reprehensible when it happened to THEM. It’s totally okay for them to do it to OTHERS, though. Turns out your opinion of genocide changes dramatically depending on whether you’re on the giving or receiving end.

The very sad facts that put this article in perspective are that: 1. reported statistics state that 8-30% of women who serve are sexually assaulted while in the armed forces (it’s a lot more than that). 2. Also, the largest growing demographic enrolling in military service are women.

Last year, the FTC banned two Big Oil executives from serving on the boards of oil giants Exxon and Chevron after it found they colluded to fix gas prices. Trump’s FTC just overturned that ban. His regime is rubber-stamping corporate corruption.

As usual, Trump is making the Epstein report entirely about him. Makes you wonder. But anyway, I repeat: we don’t care WHO trafficked children with Epstein. We want every single one of them charged to the fullest extent possible, regardless of party.

The GOP has been after the Department of Education long before Project 2025. They want to destroy *public* education in order to privatize it--in the same way they've privatized prisons. Public schools are a bedrock of any democracy and SCOTUS just put another nail in the coffin of the Republic.

Two days after the deadly Texas floods, FEMA struggled to answer calls from survivors to its disaster assistance line. Why? Because hundreds of employees who answered phones were fired after Kristi Noem didn't approve new contracts. "Efficiency."
