"The media continues to cover politics as if it is still the 1990s. 'Both parties are basically center-right or center-left parties.' The journalism infrastructure in our country wants to pretend that that’s the world that we live in. The instinct is to treat everything politicians say as valid."

The idea that Trump adheres to deadlines is absolutely ludicrous. The man promised us a healthcare plan over 450 weeks ago. It's been infrastructure week since I was born. Russia sanctions are supposed to be coming in two weeks.

"The media" writ large has had 10 years to figure this out. At this point, the only conclusion any reasonable person can come to is that they are complicit, willing enablers who are selling out democracy for the sake of access, clicks, and book deals.

The violent actions of Felon’s administration and ICE is a display of weakness. As Alex Padilla says, “If the Trump administration is this afraid of one Senator with a question, imagine what the voices of tens of millions of Americans organizing will do” #NoKings #ProudBlue

The Washington Post depicts resistance to fascism as if it were a political stunt. The shallowness and cynicism of the Post is shameful.

If only we had warned folks before the election that the real plan wasn’t border security…it was mass deportation in the interior, federalizing the National Guard, ripping people out of homes, families, jobs, and schools. Oh wait…we did. This segment with the author of 2025 aired one year ago.

My dad is almost 87. We're at the lake, enjoying the sun and a lovely breeze, when he goes, "did you hear what the Dodgers did to those ICE people?" He was laughing and laughing. He survived the first Nazis. He enjoys laughing at these ones.

📌"Trump was taking a deep, noxious breath and blowing hot air into his nuclear-powered dog whistle. He never mentioned Juneteenth once, but made good and damn sure his racist base knew exactly what he thought of the day. King Crud was back on the throne breaking wind, and all protocols of decency."
