This is the hard reality in America. Living among us, some of whom you would least suspect would turn on the gas valves at Auschwitz. But then again, some stand out like a sore thumb, especially those who would give the order.

@repdangoldman.bsky.social @adamschiff.com @raskin.house.gov Of course they are . Who else would hire them ?

Ah, the golden age.

Guess who is going to pay for the tariffs?

What the hell...Felons performing police duties. We can't get any lower. How disgraceful !

House Speaker Mike Johnson frets that if Democrats regain control of the House, they'll bog down Trump's agenda with investigations and impeachments. Sounds like a plan to me! 🤚

@mentack.bsky.social spoke out at today’s Tarrant County Commissioners Court, speaking against the racial gerrymandering, making the connection between this push by certain members and white Christian nationalism. It’s 🔥🔥🔥 We have to see it name it fight it! #tarrantcounty #gerrymandering #SINIFI

🚨NEW: The Republicans who run one of Texas’ biggest counties have recruited the national GOP’s top map-drawer, as well as a leading Washington, D.C.-based anti-voting group, to ram through a new gerrymander that aims to expand their majority. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/top...

I guess the bromance is over...

Here's a crazy idea: instead of kicking 10 million Americans off of health insurance, Congress could just eliminate the trillions of dollars in tax breaks for the ultra wealthy & slash the bloated trillion dollar Pentagon budget. Seems like a painfully easy fix, no?

Trump’s "big, beautiful bill" will add $2.4 trillion to the national debt. Don’t take my word for it—Congress’s nonpartisan budget experts just said so. A disgusting abomination, indeed.

1/ Beyond the absurdity of the admin bending over backward to withhold funds approved by Congress, they're peddling lies and propaganda to justify it. These cuts undermine U.S. interests. www.cbsnews.com/news/white-h...

Some who were at last night's ITAA Monthly Meeting had not heard that ICE agents are illegally posing as TEP utility workers to gain access to people's homes. This was mentioned at the meeting by Adelita Grijalva who was speaking to us. KGUN9 broke the story: www.kgun9.com/news/communi...

The Washington Post Plans an Influx of Outside Opinion Writers … destroys its own section and goes to substack to sniff around for those who wouldnt work for it. Hysterical if not so sad. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/03/b...

Unbelievable www.nytimes.com/2025/06/03/u...

Trump Burger restaurants in Texas have been inundated with calls from folks asking if they serve Chicken TACOs. They are asking that folks DO NOT CALL the restaurants in Bellville, TX at (979) 270-5062, Flatonia, TX at (361) 865-3893, Kemah, TX at (281) 532-6305, and Houston, TX at (346) 718-2850. 🐔

If you commit Medicaid/Medicare fraud (even imaginary fraud), Republicans will try to punish you. Unless you do it on an HUGE scale, then they will reward you.

Amazing reporting here on how things have backfired on the capitulating law firms and their enabler. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

Correct. Spending $45 million on a birthday party for the President, while the administration says we can’t afford Medicaid, shows just how bankrupt their priorities really are.

🧵My name is Frederica PREVENTION Wilson and I have been an ardent supporter of JOB CORPS CENTERS since their founding because Job Corps delivers LIFE CHANGING PREVENTION! Now, the Trump Administration is closing Job Corps centers nationwide.

How it started / How it is going 💁🏽‍♂️

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today. I'm so angry.

Please listen to the UN General Secretary.

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No Kings Day is just over two weeks away. While Trump wastes millions on his birthday parade in DC, we’re showing up everywhere else on June 14 for a nationwide day of defiance. There are events planned in all 50 states — we hope to see you in the streets again: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

Agreed!

No kings, masters, overlords or any of that bullshit. Time to take the country back.

I'm sure many of you have seen this portion of Scott Pelley's commencement address. If you haven't.....

Beyond parody.

Phang: If you have to resort to deceit to get something done, that tells me what you’re doing is wrong. What’s happening is a dup-and-scoop: people are being duped into going to court, their cases get dismissed, and then they’re scooped up by ICE and deported under expedited removal.

Remember: Trump Always Chickens Out. Always Has. Always Will.

Because free speech.

Leavitt: "Electricians, plumbers -- we need more of those in our country, and less LGBTQ graduate majors from Harvard University. And that's what this administration's position is."
