…because of the effectiveness of right wing propaganda & the failure of average Americans to apply even a hint of critical thinking to their voting decisions is why we are here. And not enough people are doing anything about it, is because too many are not paying attention! WTFU people!🤬 #ProudBlue

Still baffling to me how people asking for basic human rights and civil liberties are painted as far left. They’re normal asks and enjoyed in many other countries. The rhetoric is just designed to stop the conversation; it’s not a serious discussion.

Since when does a six-time bankrupt president get to play CEO of private American companies? This is the U.S., not some dictatorship cosplay. You want to run a country like North Korea or Russia? Move. I’ll have more next week on Substack. Buckle up. mitchthelawyer.substack.com

76% of Trump’s budget goes to the military and police. He’s gutting social safety nets while giving over $1T to the Pentagon — which hasn’t passed an audit in 6 years. He never cared about fraud and waste. He cares about having a militarized oligarchy.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but 30% is still a high tariff…and it’s still going to drive prices up. But sure, businesses can “plan” for 90 days until the next erratic change. Awesome.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the health secretary, shared photos of himself and his grandchildren frolicking in waters filled with sewer overflow. Swimming in sewage. Spewing garbage. Sowing cynicism. That’s RFK Jr. alright.

The Lincoln Project just dropped another hammer on the GOP’s fascist flank—and they’re right. If you trample the Constitution, shred due process, and treat humans like pawns, you’re the lawless one. Actions have consequences. The law is the law. @lincolnproject.us

Weather and climate research funds are being “chainsawed” from NOAA's budget. Last I checked, Louisiana & Florida, which are maximally susceptible to Hurricanes, voted Red in the last General Election. Wondering if residents there knew in advance this would happen.

Americans put in the Oval Office a man who does not give a damn about the Constitution or the rule of law, but only about consolidating power & wealth for himself & his cronies. Every day we can see the fateful consequences of this disaster--and We the People must decide how long we'll tolerate it.
