I know I’m a minority, and in a time warp, but Im looking forward to Sean Spicer spinning the crowd size at the parade the NYTimes described as “sparse”, “desultory” and “low energy” (was Jeb there??) youtu.be/PKzHXelQi_A

Noem has a history of being a lying sack of shit. A GOP report found that as Gov of SD she directed special treatment of her inept daughter to get her a real estate appraisal license. She lied and sought to cover-up her unlawful actions.

Videos of farm workers captioned as “they make America great.” Yes. And you & I make America great. And so do the ppl who voted 4 Trump & even the MAGA base. We all make America great, even if it’s very imperfect. But the guy they voted 4 & his misanthropic battalion of misfits, not so much.

If the Feds seek to charge Senator Padilla (I suspect they may), the LA DA should file assault charges against the officers who needlessly roughed him up. A badge does not give license to assault.

Why is no one talking about how the GOP - led by stolen valor Tom Cotton - undermined, and then Trump abandoned, the nuclear deal with Iran? Under that deal, Iran’s nuclear weapons capability would be zero today. Instead, we face yet more Trump induced chaos.

Coincidence? June 8, 1789: James Madison introduces the Bill of Rights. June 8, 1949: 1984 by George Orwell published. June 8, 2025: Trump deploys National Guard as an authoritarian vanity ploy.

We can blame the (bothsideism) MSM for giving oxygen to the ridiculous Biden decline story: “what did other Dems know & when did they know it?” But the Dems shouldn’t respond & apologize. How often do you see GOPers respond to questions about Trump’s aberrant & corrupt behavior and daily lies?

Me: Trump just pardoned a dozen tax cheats, corrupted officials and fraudsters - all GOP. Her: damn right! they were victims of a politicized & weaponized deep state. Me: most of the Venezuelans deported to El Salvador had no criminal record. Her: whatever.

Once again, Ezra Klein demonstrates he knows very little about politics. This guy has an uncanny ability to advocate for corporate America while pretending to be progressive. Right there w Third Way and the old DLC. www.axios.com/2025/05/28/d...

Trump pardons a big tax cheat whose mommy is a big GOP donor and gave $1M for a private meet w him. Also pardons a Goober Sheriff who took bribes & pardons the tax cheat/fraudster Chrisslys. But a 20 yr old Venezuelan kid who takes care of his siblings is being deported tho he followed the rules

It’s the fight for our soul. Springsteen: “Nobody wins unless everybody wins. ” Trump: I win only if everyone else loses. And, America is losing but the contest is not over yet. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/25/o...

The man is a dangerous fool. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/05...

Tariffs are intended for the consumer pay more, not to have the retailer “eat” it. If the retailer eats it, the foreign producer has no incentive to negotiate or change behavior & the US consumer has no $ incentive to switch consumption to US produced goods. Trump doesnt understand his policy

Me: do u know Stuart Rhodes? Her: who? Me: convicted of undermining our country -Just short of treason. & an admitted white supremacist. Her: so? Me: sentenced to 18 yrs but pardoned by Trump Her: I need to research that Me: How about Kilmer Abrego Garcia? Her: he’s a fuckin’ criminal & terrorist

How about we talk about this instead of James Fucking Comey or Biden being old? www.nytimes.com/2025/05/16/u...

40% of the country is self-centered & rejects the idea of community. Meet them where they are. Every report and headline on carbon emissions should quantify the dollars at stake. Trump’s carbon+ path is economic suicide; Big Oil has convinced the public otherwise. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/10/c...

More details are emerging as Rep. Joaquin Castro meets with the deported family of the 11yo U.S. citizen girl in Mexico. CBP agents *confiscated her seizure meds.* That’s not law enforcement—it’s abuse. Keep reposting. Keep raising hell. Be a voice for the voiceless. #OnYourSide
