It’s an excellent book that is, sadly, even more relevant today than when it was first published.

Hope anyone in need or homeless sees this

Republicans in Congress are backing a bill that gives away an insane amount of congressional power to their Lord and Savior Donald Trump. Remember that the next time you hear a MAGA representative call someone else a "weak beta soy cuck" or whatever the current junior high insult is.

NY Times great article today on the right's plan to SILENCE any group or person who publicly supports Palestinian Christians and Muslims. They are closely tied to the Trump regime. Here is a gift link to read about the anti-American plan called "Project Esther." www.nytimes.com/2025/05/18/u...

Some politicians are like those old torn sweats. They are super comfy but they need to be replaced. We Democrats aren’t an exception. We must progress forward with strength, strategy and skill. Willing to adapt to the future and challenges.

There's literally no difference between a public national monument approved by Congress and a $400 million jet the president keeps

"Unless he turns this around, three weeks from now, you walk into a store and we're going to have a covid-like supply chain crisis, and Trump is looking for an exit" -- here's the @stephruhle.bsky.social commentary that triggered a Trump Truth Social meltdown

@maddow.msnbc.com Rachel, you just revealed breaking news that Trump has deported American citizens aged 2, 4, and 7. One is a cancer patient. Rachel, we need you to Stay On Air. You came back for 100 days but we need you! Please STAY. #ProudBlue #DemVoice1 #ResistanceUnited #MomSky

No way this wasn't caught on camera and whoever is responsible should be prosecuted as robustly as possible AND be made to plant trees once they are paroled.

History always has a lesson.

Someone has put our thoughts into words: Dr. Pru Lee on the Cheney/Kinzinger facebook page. Continues in comments. Please read all and share widely! @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @jayapal.house.gov @aoc.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @raskin.house.gov @chrismurphyct.bsky.social @amyklobuchar.com

Who else AGREES with Nina?! 🤚

I don’t think a better headline could have been written about what happened yesterday. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Trump orders government to stop tracking cancers in U.S. firefighters. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Trump and the GOP are destroying the economy, silencing dissent, using the government to punish law firms and others who oppose Trump and threatening to deport Americans to a prison in El Salvador but what is corporate media reporting on: Democrats are in disarray. Im serious.

Yep. Trump just exempted smartphones & computers from the tariffs, which (1) shows the absence of any real planning (2) is contrary to what he and his admin said is the point of these tariffs and (3) does not fix the numerous other problems. There are so many vital widgets US businesses get abroad.

Did you know? The word “trumpery” appeared in the 15th century with the meanings “deceit” or “fraud”. 100 years later, it was being applied to objects of little or no value. Then in the 1900’s, it came to mean “showy but worthless”. — Today, it is equated with “fascist shit”.

THIS 😆🤣🤣 I don’t know even know her name but I’m ready to be her new F**king Best Friend!

They have the power to stop him… THEY CHOOSE TO LET HIM RULE WITHOUT RESTRICTIONS!!!

Apple announced $500 billion in investment during Trump's term and its CEO gave $1 million to Trump's inauguration

Looking for corporate media coverage of the @booker.senate.gov filibuster and finding NONE. Currently live on CSPAN2 and YouTube.

Trump’s Latest Bid to Rewrite Reality www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-late...

Seriously -- he's broadcasting plans to violate state and federal election laws, in support of his quest to sway a state Supreme Court election. Arrest him. Yes, even though he's really rich. Arrest him.

I appreciate that Jeffrey Goldberg did not sit on this news for a book that he writes two years from now

In other words, Trump wants Musk to see how he can fix future elections for him too. He might be getting the distinct impression people don't like his policies. Hasn't made any public appearances. He doesn't need votes, as much as a plan.

"I had a very stern conversation with Secretary Hegseth. I told him it's entirely unacceptable to invite magazine editors into top-secret war plans group chats. He agreed with me. I believe he's learned his lesson." - Susan Collins

It is impossible to capture how catastrophic Trump’s recent moves and statements are for US defense contractors—this will have a huge trickle-down industrial effect given supply chains and subcontractors.
