Trump keeps spreading lies about Social Security. What he isn't telling you is that he's actively trying to dismantle it — firing thousands of SSA employees and shuttering regional offices. Why? To pave the way for privatization so Wall Street can gamble with our retirement.

Shouldn't Mexico and Canada impose tariffs on the US until the flow of illegal weapons from the US to their countries stops?

Creating a national reserve of crypto currency is basically a pump and dump handout to Russia and North Korea. They've been mining and stealing crypto for years. Putting a trillion $ into any of them will pump them up, and then these regimes will simply sell them. Your tax dollars at work.

The instruments of national power are diplomatic, informational, military, and economic. Trump and musk have kneecapped three of those and it hasn't even been two months. Leaving NATO would achieve the fourth.

About 15 years ago I was in Ukraine for 2 or 3 weeks to meet with a remote team. They made me feel welcome, we ate and drank together, and were always incredibly kind to me. The people of Ukraine deserve peace and freedom, not to be extorted and humiliated on TV.

And made it harder for unions, and stole over a trillion dollars from Social Security to cover a blank check to the military industrial complex that continues to this day!

You cannot claim to be “fiscally conservative” and refuse to support a wealth tax. If Republicans believe in driving down the deficit, as they say, they should support taxing the ultra wealthy. Why does this have to be the burden of working class Americans?

now would be a good time for liberals to make a massive investment in progressive media. decades of relying on the ny times/wapo/ap/cnn has been a failure and they're now more right-wing than ever. everything is turning into a miniature fox news and liberals dont want to put money into this.

I gave a campus talk last night on Trump's first 100 days for the WUD Society & Politics group. A student asked me if I thought that, at some point, we might start to describe the US as a competitive authoritarian regime. I said that we were already there, it's just that most folks haven't noticed:

I wrote a post about the Klan 100 years ago and how the grip they held on the US seemed impossible to break, but people fought them anyway. And it’s been read by tens of thousands of you (!!!). I guess people want stories of hope right now. dansinker.com/posts/202…

"The Black mentor class is being fired, not just on television but throughout America." And that's why it will never be enough to "express sympathies" and send "thoughts and prayers". If you want to make a difference, hire, platform, support, and put on Black folks. Anything less is cheap talk.

BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weapons—over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.—should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism. As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. 🇲🇽

RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen. 1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.
