The fact of the matter is that the American conservative movement has backed a president now harassing students and destroying academic work on ideological grounds. This entire debate should be suspended until the conservative movement repudiates him. There is nothing to discuss until then.

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING NEWS: Was just passed this from a fellow service academy grad. A Coast Guard Academy graduate posted this. They are reporting that ICE entered base housing and took a USCG spouse. I can’t confirm this but I’m calling for answers from the Coast Guard and Congress. This is unacceptable.

This has to be the most brazenly corrupt act in the history of the American presidency. Trump is holding a contest to see who can pay him the most money and the prize is direct access to the president It is literal pay-to-play

Remember when the economy was booming, stocks were soaring, we weren’t in a trade war with China, we didn’t have a day drunk for a Sec Def, a couch fucking Cabbage Patch doll for a VP or an evil, incurious idiot for a president & we still funded cancer research? Yeah, that was like three months ago.

“We had more money than anybody.” “We” meaning the robber barons who amassed fortunes, encouraged the largest influx of immigrants and paid meager wages with no benefits; thus beginning the huge disparity between the wealthy industrialists and the working class.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power. Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

I'm about to do an interview with local media on HJR 73. It is the bill to put an abortion ban back on the ballot after we just overturned our abortion ban back in November. Friends, Republicans are going to try to put lies on the ballot summary and trick our neighbors into voting for another ban.

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice. The result? Demagoguery and corruption.
