This incredibly irresponsible alcoholic idiot is calling for 500 additional troops in Washington. Because that won't incite more violence.

Everything about this silly "Secretary of War" is about saber rattling and pretending he is so strong. He really must have been picked on in school.

Two National Guardsmen were shot in Washington, D.C.

Democrats immediately express their sympathy for the victims and their families.

Republicans immediately spread conspiracy theories to blame Democrats for the shooting.

Anyone still believe both parties are the same?

Trump isn’t just firing more Veterans than any President in history—

He’s cancelling contracts with Veteran-owned small businesses that help cancer patients…

…and forcing them to consider selling their cars just to pay their employees.

Truly despicable.
Almost a year into Trump's second term, veterans doing business with DC are feeling the sting of the president's efforts to shrink the federal government and DOGE’s crusade to combat what it calls waste, fraud and abuse.
Veteran-owned businesses are feeling burned by Trump’s contract cutting
Among the contracts DOGE canceled under the Department of Veterans Affairs alone, two-thirds were with veteran-owned businesses.

Big Tech is plotting a multi-million dollar lobbying blitz to oppose AI regulation at the state and federal level.

Now, Trump and some Republicans are reportedly looking to resurrect a ban on all state-level AI regulation.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

I’ve been in or around politics for over a half-century now.

I’ve watched as corporations and the super-rich flooded D.C. with campaign cash and ransacked our system.

It won't be easy, but here’s how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people.

AI data centers are sucking up communities’ power & water.

AI is being used by corporations to shaft consumers and is threatening young workers’ job prospects.

So Trump wants to ram through a ban on state AI regulation — all to help out his Big Tech billionaire friends.

Trump's DOT — which is stacked with corporate insiders — is gutting safety rules at Big Business' behest.

Deregulation is another form of trickle-down economics, where the financial gains go to the top, and nothing trickles down except risks and losses.

Today’s decision is disappointing. I am not in this fight only for myself, and I’m concerned that this decision will simply embolden the administration.

This case is not over. I am committed to protecting my community, our people, and our country.
