"Zelenskyy found himself ambushed by Trump and his serpentine vice-president, JD Vance. He was expected to sit back and take a beating from Nurse Ratched and Miss Trunchbull. He refused." - David Smith, Guardian

Fake transcript. You need to make that clear. I totally agree with you but people may think that transcript is real.

In addition to losing thousands of full time employees (50% of which are trained to fight fires, on average), this year the Forest Service has been prohibited from hiring seasonal workers (ie back up firefighters)
The situation for western states is dire.

Actually, not a goal. She had to do it to get her vote in —but definitely not recommended so early for newborn.

Thank you. Not enough attention is focused on this. Why do young women have more common sense and empathy?

There is strength in numbers. We must show up at every town hall, every legislative hearing, every protest and rally. It’s time.

also the court keeps saying (and imo correctly) that in general disputes between congress and the executive branch are not well handled by the court, but by, y'know, the congress asserting itself. If it cannot or will not, those powers atrophy

And now the Des Moines Register has filed its own motion to dismiss Trump's lawsuit, and it is even harsher than Selzer's. It calls the president a "sore winner" who is trying to weaponize a state law to subvert the First Amendment.

As I’ve long warned, everything they want to do in America they’re doing at the Pentagon first. And they’re doing it fast. And this is just the start.
Be alarmed and be involved. This is not normal and not acceptable.

This all points to a key difference: The GOP relies on mega-donors, creating a greater vulnerability to oligarchical influence. Dems could easily fund their operations from smaller donations alone. and remain competitive Currently, the GOP couldn't. And partly helps explain why we're in this mess.

1. Negotiate better contracts for the Department of Defense. Giant contractors overcharge the DOD on nearly everything—including by more than 7,500% for soap dispensers.
My recommendations on contracting would save nearly $200 billion in the next 12 years.

Tyranny requires your fear and your silence and your compliance.
Democracy requires your courage.
So gather your justice and humanity, Illinois, and do not let despair overcome us when our country needs us the most.
