Trump is gutting fuel economy standards, handing a reckless gift to polluting automakers. This isn't just a rollback; it's a direct assault on our climate future and public health for corporate profit.

Latest right-wing meltdown isn’t about inflation, immigration, or any of the other issues they pretend to champion.No, this crisis is that a college student Samantha Fulnecky got an F. Not for being persecuted. Not for being Christian. She got an F for turning in a sermon instead of the assignment.

Samantha Fulnecky based her entire essay around Christianity and the Bible, and failed to address the actual assignment.

I’m sure the self-proclaimed ‘most transparent White House in history’ won’t mind a thorough investigation into the second strike.

Hegseth is very transparently blaming a Navy admiral for his own decision. Let this be a lesson for every other military officer: The Trump administration will issue unlawful orders, then blame you for following them.

So will they be prosecuted? That of course remains to be seen. But the basis is there because what they have ordered is “patently illegal” and “…military members have a duty to disobey,”!

Read the article from @commondreams.org please. It covers all the wrinkles!

The shooting of two Guardsmen in DC is a tragedy.

It is also EXACTLY what Trump wanted and was waiting for.

No POTUS has ever so premeditated getting our troops shot at for the sake a personal ambition as brutal as it is demagogic, dictatorial, and illegal.

This is on (a) the shooter, (b) Trump.
