I am saddened to learn of the passing of Congressman Charlie Rangel. A founding member of the Congressional Black Caucus. A fearless fighter for Harlem. A decorated veteran who never stopped serving the people.

And that’s on choice.

Sooo. Apparently that asshole has been using the threat of tariffs to extort countries into cutting massive deals with Felon’s companies. And why not? He got away with extortion last time thanks to Mitch McConnell and Merrick Garland.

Neither. It’s the evil ones trying to act “Christian.”

"It's the same kind of guy doing the same kind of politics for the same kind of reasons in all of these places. And when the people see through it, we see through it in the same way in every country."

Making sure our kids don’t go hungry isn’t just the right thing to do, it’s an investment in our future.

We will not let this guy abolish Veterans Day.

Summed up nicely. I love this woman.

Evangelicals are raised in a religion that demands they acquiesce to an authoritarian. Whether it’s their father, their pastor, or their president — they are indoctrinated to submit.

RFK Jr: "We found that there's a direct inverse correlation between fluoride exposure and low IQ in children. So the more you get, the stupider you are."

Our economy is essentially one big Ponzi scheme. We borrow from Paul & then borrow from Peter to pay Paul. Then we use our GDP to pay the interest on the loans from Peter. We also use our tax policies to siphon all of the wealth to the richest 1%, while spreading all the risk to the rest of us.

Last night was a hectic one. In case you missed it: DOGE put a college student in charge of using AI to rewrite housing regulations. Because who needs experts when you’ve got ChatGPT and an economics and data science major? And yes—this may be rolling out across government. Cool cool cool.

The person who looks super rich from a distance because of an endless flow of loans, looks very poor up close when those loans dry up. Think about that.

It is a very bad sign that the AG is willing to openly and blatantly LIE to the American people. But she is evil and we knew that from the start. Garland also LIED to the American people every time he stepped up to a mic and said he would “follow the evidence.” His lies are why we are here.

Don’t care. Will never buy that trash. I like cars that don’t explode, fall apart or involuntarily drive me into a pole.

The chair of the Election Assistance Commission says states should stop counting mail-in ballots that arrive after Election Day, echoing Trump’s anti-voting order to withhold funds from states that don’t comply. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I see article after article asking if MAGA voters regret their choice. I don’t know why. MAGA voters were stupidly enough to vote for him, they surely are too stupid to understand their own idiocy. So where are the articles asking if the nonvoters regret staying home?

The facts are the facts: their proposed budget is not going to make life easier for 99% of us. I can’t WAIT until the day that Republicans decide to show up and work for the people who elected them.

Elon Musk may or may not fulfill his promise to step back from DOGE. But his legacy is already clear: He is assembling a sprawling domestic surveillance system — the likes of which we have never seen in the United States. My latest for NYT Opinion (gift link): www.nytimes.com/2025/04/30/o...

Federal workers SAVE the government money, that’s why firing them is COSTING the government money. This isn’t difficult.

America is being destroyed by the arrogance of insecure mediocre white men. That’s pretty much it.

The list could go on and on….and on. But here are 5 diabolical, disastrous, deplorable, detrimental dumb decisions by Don.

Thank you @stephruhle.bsky.social for organizing a town hall to specifically bring to the public a visual of what the decapitation of our federal government truly looks like. Most Americans don’t really know that the federal government is the heartbeat of what makes America great!
