Images of tanks pulling up for a huge PARADE that NO ONE asked for that will cost money & take military personnel away from more important things at a time when Americans are being told we don’t have money for food & healthcare seems wild to me.

Stephen Miller is fulfilling his high school wet dream of terrorizing all the Brown people in Los Angeles. My daughter's friends who went to SaMo High with him said he used to seethe while the morning announcements were repeated in Spanish. Hell, they did that when I went there. (Mesozoic age.)

Alternet: On June 14, Trump's birthday coincides with the Army's 250th anniversary. The military parade is now being panned by senators from his own party, who are complaining about the significant cost of the event. #ProudBlue D-Day #DDay81 #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in Supreme Court history. It's allowed billionaires to completely take over our politics and destroy our democracy. There are days when we are reminded just how pernicious that ruling was. Today is one of those days.

Racist TikTok working overtime. Anytime a Black face is in a position of power, racists cry DEI. Allow me to address: Ketanji Brown Jackson was the most qualified Supreme Court nominee in history… 📌Harvard undergrad & Harvard Law – graduated magna cum laude & editor of the Harvard Law Review. 🧵

Dont be fooled. Muskrat doesn't give a shit about you. He is not upset about Medicare, medicaid, and SSA. He still wants the tax cuts for the rich. He is upset about the tax credits for electric cars are expiring. Which improves HIS bottom line. He is a narcissist. It's always about HIM.
