@civilm.bsky.social thanks for the follow. Can you help me get the word out on this event? Www.fightagainstfascism.org

OPINION:

The phenomenon of prominent Democrats not acting like they really believe American democracy is facing an existential crisis is starting to really upset Democratic voters, Big Law edition. ICYMI @lauren-egan.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/big-backla...

NEW: Of the 7,837 disputed procedures in the lawsuit, involving 1,680 patients, Blue Cross paid this breast cancer center about 9 cents on the dollar, paying $43M on invoices totaling $500M. Some 60% of the claims weren’t reimbursed at all.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

"You don’t know what’s in the vaccine anymore."

Trump surrendered again on tariffs after the bond market went nuts, which he and his advisers were too stupid to foresee, then he was unable to get House Republicans to agree on a budget deal even after it was brought to the floor for a vote, all while claiming victory the entire time.

When I was in a high school creative writing class, I had a character say, "Las Vegas means 'The Vegas' in Mexican" to convey how ignorant she was. Still works.

"The reactionaries just wanted to shock the left."

Really?

From Nov 7:

"The Trump administration decided the president’s massively expensive ad campaign thanking himself for his anti-immigrant crackdown should be exempt from DOGE’s 'cost efficiency' review." See how this works?

"His billionaire buddies are telling him, even Elon Musk is saying this is a problem."

Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins: “We live under a tariff regime from other countries.” “The McDonald islands is not imposing—” CNN’s Jake Tapper interjected. “Whatever. Listen, the people that are leading this are serious, intentional, patriotic, the smartest people I’ve ever worked with."

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit has unanimously denied the Trump administration’s attempt to defy a federal court order requiring the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States by midnight tonight.

Trump has damaged America forever. We're now viewed as an unreliable partner - business can never trust him and any government policy - our allies don't see us as an ally anymore - our enemies are emboldened. Trump destroyed our soft power advantage.
