Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

For those of us not in the cult, this is what we hear when anyone from the Trump administration speaks.
For the people in the back, this is satire and so well done…

Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell could not have sold children for sex without rich perverts buying children for sex. I feel like more people should mention that.

In 2025, America saw the highest number of measles cases in over 30 years. That’s just a preview of what’s to come as RFK Jr continues his rollback of vaccine guidance.

“If Prop 50 is successful, it should fortify in every Democratic elected official and leader that the voters are on the side of action in order to prevent a Republican takeover of the House of Representatives and the 2026 midterms” says @johnbisognano.com
California’s Prop 50 hugely important. Its approval by voters will not only combat Texas gerrymander but hopefully convince other Dem states to step up & counter Trump’s plan to rig midterms www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
California fights Trump's attempt to steal the midterms
The state can strike the first blow against Trump's plan to subvert democracy.

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

In Somalia, health workers confirmed the world’s last naturally occurring case of smallpox. Three years later the WHO certified eradication, only possible because of a global vaccination campaign. But sure, tell me again about the dangers of vaccines.

The people who want violent protests to happen are Trump, Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Pete Hegseth, Tom Homan, and other senior appointees in his admin. They are doing everything they possibly can to provoke people to violence and it is obvious that is what they hope for daily.

Everything by Trump and Miller right now is weakness.
They know they've lost the majority and their policies are unpopular and they've F'd up the economy.
So, they'll use the military and threats and unleash their Reeks.
But, they don't have the numbers.
All hands on deck resistance.

Democrats have no obligation to support a budget that funds the destruction of our democracy - and DOUBLES health premiums to fund a tax cut for billionaires.

⚠️Homeopathy is a scam created in 1796 by a German guy with NO plausibility or evidence.
