Walmart and Home Depot have decided to cooperate with ICE. 🤬 Both companies are allowing ICE agents to come onto their premises to arrest innocent shoppers. If you weren’t boycotting them before, you can add them to your list!!

Surprise! Or not.🤷‍♀️ A former DOGE employee says that he found that the federal waste, fraud and abuse that his agency was supposed to uncover were "relatively nonexistent" during his short time embedded within the Department of Veterans Affairs. www.npr.org/2025/06/02/n...

“Look, here's burial sites all over the place. These are all white farmers that are being buried,” Donald Trump said during today’s White House meeting with South Africa’s president. The image he was holding up, however, is of the Democratic Republic of Congo. www.barrons.com/news/trump-d...

Elon isn’t giving up. We haven’t “won” anything. He’s leaving victoriously. His data scrapers are in place, he’s secured billions in Government contracts and grants. He’s finished his assignment and now he’s going home. When the burglar leaves your house after emptying it, we don’t call that a win.

For those confused by the China tariff news: • Trump caved and got zero in return • No manufacturing moved back to the USA • 30% tariff is still a huge tax on Americans • 90 day pause still causes uncertainty • Trump lost all negotiating leverage

🇺🇸 “Rolling Stone reached out to all 53 GOP senators after the president said he didn't know whether he needs to honor the nation's founding document. None replied.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

This would be funny as hell if it wasn't true.

Trump’s military spends $42 million dollars on Viagra. Hey! DOGE did ya miss that cut? You don’t need Viagra. You want it. And don’t tell me you’re taking it for BP. 🙄 This is entitled problem. Spend it on Gender Affirming care. www.newsweek.com/us-military-...

Civil disobedience by an elected official defending his constituents is something we should applaud. This is bringing the fight… www.shorenewsnetwork.com/2025/05/09/n...

Why would you hold someone in a secret location for trespass?

The Trump administration hired a company to open an ICE facility in Newark Mayor Ras Baraka said they needed permits There's a sordid history of for-profit businesses holding immigrants under inhumane conditions So the mayor went to inspect And they arrested him NEVER STOP FIGHTING FASCISM

“The controversial 1,000-bed facility is owned by the private prison company GEO Group, which entered into a 15-year, $1 billion contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in February.” $1 BILLION dollars lining the pockets of a private prison company. www.insidernj.com/baraka-arres...

When you arrest innocents, legal residents, and those speaking out against draconian policies, you're not a leader. You're a fascist dictator. Oh, and also a pathetic excuse of a human being.

Cassocks are red Conclaves are dope Wake up babe we got a

We can throw away $120,000,000 flipping fighter jets into the sea, but can’t afford to give the pilots healthcare when they retire.

A reminder not to store red sauce in Tupperware.

Absolutely surreal to see the Greenwich, CT public high school theater arts program, of which I am a graduate, being used to justify cutting community improvements and programming across the country 😓

“… both mothers say they were not given the option of keeping their US citizen children in the country. They say the mothers were told their children were being deported alongside them, despite their citizenship status and even though both families had lawful custodians willing to take custody …”

“Some artifacts and exhibits are being removed from the National Museum of African American History and Culture. It comes a month after Trump’s executive order to remove ‘improper ideology’ from Smithsonian museums.” www.dcnewsnow.com/news/local-n...

If Biden, as president, had fallen asleep at the Pope’s funeral, it would have been the top story in America for days. Trump falling asleep at the Pope’s funeral today won’t be, because our media is broken.

Here is Krebs’ part two with more info krebsonsecurity.com/2025/04/doge...

Donald Trump, a man whose name we only know because his father was a multi-millionaire who gave him over $400,000,000 to rescue him from his incompetence in business, is pretending to cherish "meritocracy." How hilarious. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

It’s our duty to protect the institutions that protect us. Stand up for democracy. Speak out against fascism. Silence is complicity.

Mountains of shame on Shari Redstone and everyone else involved here trying to settle such a ridiculous and baseless legal action. They’re so poor, all they have is money and they will eventually pay the price for their grotesque behavior.

They all probably voted for him.

I don't think people in the US fully understand how much our government has made us broadly hated in other countries

Good. Damn good.👇
