This is exactly the right tone when privileged people suffer minor or temporary consequences standing up for powerless people. It’s still about the powerless people. ICE is Gestapo trash.

On the topic of presidential mental acuity, the current president was awake at 1:30am rage tweeting about his former opponents’ crowd sizes and calling Beyoncé, Bono, and Bruce Springsteen ‘unpatriotic entertainers.’ Where is the news cycle about his fitness for office?

Please repeat over and over: “Bending to the whims of a bully will not end his cruelty. It will only embolden him. The response to authoritarianism isn’t acquiescence. Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face.” —Gov. JB Pritzker

Good way to see the current tariffs, as of literally today, is no tariffs on high value add manufactured goods marketed to middle and upper middle classes. Massive tariffs for cheap consumer items which amount to the biggest economic privilege of working class/middle class life in US.

Maybe his plan is to make it seem like eggs are getting cheaper by making everything else even more expensive than eggs.

Schumer and these 10 Senate Democrats overplayed their hand. They think people will forget and move on. They won't. Schumer just sealed the end of his leadership. It's done. Just a matter of when. Tick Tock.

Okay, I cannot recommend 5calls.org enough. Enter your address and it will find all your reps (federal and state). AND give you a list of issues to call about AND which reps to call about each of them AND a little script for each, in case it's helpful. They have an app, too.

When the right has succeeded in a decades long mission of ensuring government doesn’t work, this is what we end up with. Makes demagoguery all too effective

In the past day I’ve heard two people who really should know better say they asked ChatGPT for factual info. ChatGPT is not a search engine. It is predictive text based on other people’s stolen writing; its whole job is to make stuff up. Please do not ask it for facts. Tell a friend.

As someone who worked at HHS for five years, the idea of Robert Kennedy Jr running it is stomach-turning. It’s not only that he has no qualifications—that’s true of several Trump picks. His conspiratorial ravings flatly reject so much of the daily work of HHS agencies to maintain public health.

Saying you're voting for Trump because prices were lower four years ago is like doing it because you were younger four years ago. He has as much of a plan to make you four years younger as he does to lower prices.
