If this person sat next to you on a bus or train and started ranting about Bruce Springsteen in this way, you would get up and move to a different seat. In the United States, we have him the nuclear codes.

What do we know about the GOP tax cut for billionaires? Hardworking Americans pay for this extreme give away to GOP billionaire donors! GOP is cutting Medicaid & food assistance to pay for billionaire tax breaks! Millions of Americans will have higher costs & lose health care! #DontMessWithMedicaid

Nothing to see here except cadet Bone Spurs talking to the dictator who had a journalist sawed into pieces talking to the guy who bought the US election, talking to a guy that owns big shares of X. Totally normal. #USDemocracy

I could be wrong but I think that is an HPV test rather than a pap smear. We had a trial here in Canada a couple of years ago.

This is what ICE does: just like they stalked the family’s car and smashed the windows in to kidnap them. They attack people on the streets grab them and take them to concentration camps. Entire neighborhoods gather to protect little babies & their moms from being separated & kidnapped.

ICE agents *know* what they are doing is probably illegal, which is why they try to conceal their identities with scarves and sunglasses. #AmericanGestapo

This absolutely would've backfired (and did). But it's also easy to understand why they don't realize why it would backfire. These people don't believe in anything and think nobody else believes in anything either. But the cardinals are men of God and they believe in God.

Agreed. I believe it's just a 'memorandum of understanding'. Just trump trying to effect capitulation from all.

"The end result here is most likely exactly what they want: a science-challenged, bureaucratically hamstrung EPA, largely incapable of developing regulations but more than ready to attempt to roll existing regs back, 'unleashing' corporate America back to its glory days of smog, soot, and ruin."

Dear Keir Starmer, give a bully an inch and they will take a mile. Your bully does not want a mutually beneficial trade agreement, he wants complete capitulation. Once he believes he has that the demands will not go down, they will increase exponentially!

When Pete Buttigieg came out of nowhere (at least for a lot of people) he was just a guy with a funny name. But now he's known as one of our most clear thinking, truth speaking, intelligent and also a very good, person that we have in the public eye. He's right. We need to show the alternative.
