I was just here for the cat and dog photos, now ..
I am a liberal and a conservative (depends on how the topic is defined). I am progressive. I don't understand people that want to stay stuck in the past. We can debate how far, how fast, what's the cost...

Me in winter: It's too cold. Where's the sun? Where's spring?
Me in spring: My allergies are killing me. When's summer?
Me in summer: It's too freakin' hot to do anything. When's fall?
Autumn: Ahhh. I am not looking forward to winter...

Rinse. Repeat.

NEW: The Trump administration plans to expand the military's role in immigration and law enforcement, intertwining ICE and our troops, and returning us to some of the darkest times in U.S. history.

Deploying the military in our communities puts our democracy, our freedoms, and our lives in peril.

I got this letter and I found it to be quite shady and of course it was. It was totally misleading. Shame on SSA.
Many seniors got an email from SSA celebrating the big, ugly bill—gaslighting us by claiming it cuts Social Security taxes. In reality, it just offers a temporary deduction that leaves many out and expires in a few years. Don’t fall for the spin.
Does the "big, beautiful bill" eliminate taxes on Social Security?
President Trump pushed to eliminate taxes on Social Security. Does his "one big, beautiful bill" deliver?

Haven’t seen widespread reporting on Trump dropping an antisemitic slur at a recent rally - except WaPo who posted minutes ago that he used a term „viewed as antisemitic slur“ - it IS one.

New, @propublica.org:

“You won’t have neutral prosecutors weighing the facts and making decisions about who to investigate,” said Adam W. Cohen, who led the DOJ office that coordinates interagency organized crime probes, about Stephen Miller's plan.

“The White House will be able to decide.”

Awful treat in ICE facilities. We must highlight and spread these stories every time they surface. Yes, they're heartbreaking and awful to read. But we must give these humans voices despite the regime trying to silence them.
