He brought the top American military officers stationed around the world to tell them that the enemy they should be primarily concerned with now is American citizens. “Full force”- we’re about to find out what that means.

one thing that is true for everyone reading this: unless something changes dramatically the number of people who agree with you on what basic facts constitute "reality" will shrink every year for the rest of your life

It’s the Confederate Army retaking the Union states (and the nations Capital). This is the civil war redux GOP turned MAGA Party has been pushing since Reagan kicked off with a dog whistle 1980 speech on (irony alert) “states rights” in Neshoba, Miss where the Klan murdered 3 freedom riders.

Make America Great Leap Forward is going to starve people and enable larger swaths of enslaved labor.

Hey so this is christofascism 💁🏻‍♀️

But while we’re here in this hellscape dystopian nightmare, can I get every reasonable faith leader with actual compassion for human beings to endorse democratic candidates ASAP. That should put this thing to bed real quick.

The nonpartisan Government Accountability Office says the Trump administration broke the law by withholding funding for the nation’s libraries as part of its federal reorganization plan. The G.A.O. will sue if the administration continues to block funds already approved by Congress.

If we were wondering where we are at the moment, imagine reading that two politicians were shot in their homes in, oh, I dunno, Russia. What would you think about such a country?

Ok, that is where we are now.

The highlight of the #noking protest yesterday for me was seeing the faces of Hispanic drivers light up as they saw the main street filled with people on their side. I hope their fears are a little less today, knowing there is a majority fighting for them.

Rounding up migrants in Home Depot parking lots who are looking for work.
Rounding up migrant children in school who are trying to learn.
Rounding up migrants in courthouses who are following our laws.
Doesn’t sound like criminals, murderers or rapists to me.
Sounds like racism.

Our Republican County Commissioner Chair is so elderly and frail that he cannot feed himself or walk. Will he step down? Nah. Power is one helluva drug.
