Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago. But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today. He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

I know there’s a phrase that perfectly describes what’s going on here but gosh darn it I’m blanking on it Maybe we can crowdsource this. The best I can come up with is I think it may rhyme with or sound something like “anti-magnetic lyco-bath.” Can anyone help?

Another week, another Friday night massacre. Interim US Attorney Ed Martin -- an election denialist and champion of pardons for J6 offenders-- sends letter arriving just before 5 pm firing dozens of prosecutors who worked on the January 6 prosecutions. Breathtaking corruption and pettiness.

There is absolutely zero justification to slap 25% tariffs on Canada. None whatsoever. I get how the dipshits can make their arguments about other countries with their half-assed arguments, but the Canada tariffs are madness. Complete insanity.

American auto stocks plummeted after the White House confirmed it’ll impose 25% tariffs on Mexico & Canada tomorrow (and 10% on China). The trade barriers spell disaster for US automakers, whose supply chains are deeply entwined with our North American neighbors.

12 years since Sandy Hook and still, we're mourning lives lost to mass shootings. ➡️Over 1.2 million Americans shot ➡️480,000 killed by guns ➡️5,400+ mass shooting incidents. NO MORE "thoughts and prayers". We want action. Repeat after me: #EndGunViolenceNow

Gun violence is the NUMBER ONE cause of death for children and teens in the US. Not car crashes. Not cancer. It's guns. Schools should be sites of learning for our kids, not centers of carnage. It's still the guns.

When they talk about privatizing Veterans’ care and Medicare, they mean allowing companies to provide healthcare for a profit. But how do companies make those profits? By denying care to many who need it. Don’t get fooled by the “privatization” label. It means “for profit” and YOU are the cost.
