The Obama administration deported over 3.16 million people. Biden’s passed 4.44 million. Not once did either need troops in the streets to do it. That’s all you need to know about what’s happening.

The Trump team thinks Confederate traitors who killed Americans are worth honoring. But Americans who fought at Normandy in D-Day like Medgar Evers, or served in the Navy like Harvey Milk and Cesar Chavez, or worked as a spy for the US Army like Harriet Tubman, well, they are NOT worth honoring.

For decades, Republicans in Washington have told us that tax cuts would trickle down to workers. Instead, wealth and power has accumulated in the hands of the richest 1% at the expense of the rest of us. Trickle-down economics was always a hoax.

It’s a strange contradiction vis-a-vis American foreign policy because Russia is treated as an adversary and Israel as an ally, yet both are regularly accommodated for equally misguided reasons

It’s not just the dissemination of misinformation and disinformation that corrodes the information space. It also matters which stories are prioritized—and which are deemphasized or ignored—by supposed “news” outlets & journalists.

This man, who has human rights lawyer in his Twitter biog!, is hoping that Israel attacks the flotilla & hurts (kills?) my Zeteo colleague, & legendary activist, Greta Thunberg. To call this tweet disgusting & violent would be an understatement. But they keep telling on themselves:

Now that Trump has blasted Leonard Leo, don't let the right wing sanitize the Federalist Society. Its members have been supporting voter suppression for years, its judges are among the hardest on voters. What will come from Trump now will be far worse, but do not judge democracy on a curve.

I was thinking why is no one screaming about all the "uncertainty" Trump is creating with his tyranny by tariffs the way they did with trying to insure tens of millions with Obamacare. Then I realized it's because Republicans came up with that and repeated it ad nauseam until the press bought in.

Trump’s mad rant unloads on Court-fixer Leonard Leo — has Trump FINALLY figured out that he was chumped big-time by Leo, McGahn, and the creepy billionaires (Koch) who REALLY controlled “his” judicial appointments? Slow learner.

vocal opposition to democratic gerontocracy is nifty because it serves a constructive purpose — passing the torch — and a political one: signaling independence from The Democrats.

This seat is open because asshole Democrats in the Senate wouldn’t confirm Biden’s pick for the 3rd Circuit because Biden’s pick was Muslim and did pro bono work for Muslim clients.

Hidden fees in live-event ticketing and hotels are now illegal under a Biden-era FTC rule that just took effect. Kudos to former FTC Chair Lina Khan, whose leadership could finally make junk fees a thing of the past.

Casar: "The only way to push back on this is for Democrats to be really clear that if we win back a majority, we aren't just going to let bygones be bygones. We have to go and investigate who paid Trump, who paid Musk, who made money off of these pardons because that is really serious."

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952
