📌The grotesque Trump has done more to hurt the reputation of our military the any single man in history.

Just got home from No Kings Hingham-Hull! So proud of our historically pretty conservative community!

Bob Costas nailed it. 🎯

So Kristi Noem goes on Fox and lies that Sen Padilla didn’t ID himself, even though the video is there for all to see. But get what she’s saying: Assaulting and handcuffing someone for trying to ask a question is OK in any case? This is a criminal regime.

Sounds about right to me!

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

What a rotten reality to have a White House occupant who hates so many Americans and hates everything our democratic nation stands for.

This is on all the Senators who turned a blind eye and voted to confirm. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/h...

Healthcare for seniors is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. Food for hungry kids is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. A $45 military parade for a draft dodging felon *is* waste, fraud, and abuse. Paying the National Guard to attack US citizens *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.

January Trump approval on the economy: plus +8.24 points Today Trump approval on the economy: minus -15.75 January Trump approval on inflation: plus +1.99 Today Trump approval on inflation: minus -22.24 So clearly it's time to deploy the Marines in L.A.? www.newsweek.com/donald-trump...

Trump’s escalation by calling for the National Guard demands non-violent defiance. This could not be more democratic and American. www.americaamerica.news/p/trump-want...

Broadway’s “Goodnight and Good Luck,” starring George Clooney, is airing live on CNN tonight. The Post’s theater critic praised the “sensually detailed” play as a timely rallying cry for integrity.

You know this escalation with sending 2,000 National Guard troops is exactly what Trump was hoping for. Incite violence. Blame the protestors.

I’m wishing a law firm with guts and a moral compass would do ACTUAL pro bono work representing the Garcia family and sue you know who and Marco and Tom for wrongful imprisonment, intentional infliction of mental distress, and various civil violations rights violations, for LOTS and LOTS of money.
