The articles of impeachment write themselves
WELKER: Your secretary of state says everyone who's here, citizens and non-citizens, deserve due process. Do you agree?

TRUMP: I don't know. I'm not a lawyer. I don't know.

WELKER: Don't you need to uphold the Constitution?

TRUMP: I don't know

Trump’s random EO’s Make America Less Safe. They cut our communications, our public safety mechanisms, our educational systems, and more.

All while planning an estimated 92 million dollar “military birthday parade for President Trump.

We want an America with free robust public health & safety

There is no point to this other than to be intentionally cruel. I will jump ahead where magats will cheer & find this hilarious. It is not a kind, compassionate thing, & it is not funny. Greg & the others should be given housing & employment by the billionaires until they can pay an attainable rent.
The Trump administration plans to forcibly remove Greg, along with hundreds of other unhoused people like him, living in Deschutes National Forest, with no plans to relocate them to a safe location or other residence.

We need housing not handcuffs.

My wife and I visited the African-American Museum in D.C. a year ago. It was overwhelming — and unforgettable. We left knowing we’d be back.

If Trump succeeds in deleting our history from the museum, there’ll be nothing left. This is what erasure looks like —and it’s happening right in front of us.

HIV/AIDS no longer a death sentence, that’s NIH.

Don’t miss this powerful interview with Josh—he breaks down the complicated voucher system in a way that actually makes sense.

His take on the religious impact, grounded in his own beliefs, is honest, respectful, and deeply compelling.

A must-read for anyone who cares about public education.
Vouchers are a billionaire scheme to pay tuition for wealthy families—but are education’s predatory lending for the rest.

All part of today’s disinvestment from schools, Medicaid, Social Security & more.

I sat down with @nymag.com to discuss in this lengthy interview

‘Education’s Version of Predatory Lending’
School vouchers don’t help kids. Their real purpose is more sinister, says a former supporter.

Odd, how the United States doesn't have enough money to give sick veterans healthcare, impoverished seniors Social Security, or hungry schoolkids lunches, but it does have enough money to pay a Central American dictator millions to torture American residents in his brutal concentration camp.

🚨 Republicans just stole the state supreme court election in North Carolina, retroactively disenfranchising 60,000+ voters, including overseas military troops

Alert everyone in NC that they have 2 weeks to take action stop Republicans from trashing their ballot
Two Republican judges on the North Carolina Court of Appeals just effectively overturned Justice Allison Riggs' victory over Jefferson Griffin by retroactively nullifying thousands of lawful votes. A massive and outrageous blow to democracy.
Story to come. The topline: If this holds, this would almost assuredly result in an overturned election, as Griffin trails by 734 votes and many of these contested ballots are disproportionately Democrats over Republicans. #ncpol

Here’s the thing about the tariffs: there will be no “short term pain”. Only long term. Every time a company realizes they can get away with charging you extra they don’t ever lower the price again. They just gouge. Whatever price hikes there are will be here for good.
