At the moment, my description, is gutted. Gutted that my fellow Americans voted for a traitor and their entire party. The “FO” part of the program is about to begin. I hope they all get what they voted for.

Reuters has done some really great investigative reporting on the impacts of Trump's retribution campaigns
Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.

I’m saddened to learn of the death of my friend Ann-Margaret Ferrante after her courageous battle with cancer. Rep. Ferrante fought for Cape Ann and the Commonwealth every single day—she was Gloucester to her core. My deepest condolences to her family as we mourn her passing.

This is who we're deporting while we're importing sex traffickers like the Tate brothers and white supremacists who are nostalgic for Apartheid.
I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.
She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

Three things about the Witkoff tapes:
1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.
2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.
3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.

Witkoff Advised Russia on How to Pitch Ukraine Plan to Trump
US presidential envoy Steve Witkoff, fresh from the triumph of the Gaza peace deal, held a phone call last month with a senior Kremlin official to suggest they work together on a similar plan for Ukraine — and that Vladimir Putin should raise it with Donald Trump.

So you can be a person with a valid work permit, working as a nurse in the US & apparently ICE has the authority to remove you in shackles to a country you are not from, where you are dragged back to the country you fled after being tortured.
Awful.

Tonight's even more proof the mainstream reporters who are still on Twitter are suffering from a brain problem akin Havana Syndrome that is preventing them from accurately doing their jobs. They are being cooked alive by a snuff-focused apartheid algorithm.

Bronze plan, 2 people with a $10k deductible per person.
Premium now: $450/month. Premium 2026: $1900/month.
So we’d pay $23k for the annual covered basics, then another $20k before coverage kicks in. This is the second least expensive option available. Just completely untenable. Not happening.

The "let them eat cake" attitude of Trump is really on display. Three theories: 1) he has no idea what his policies are doing to millions of Americans; 2) as goes with authoritarians, nobody inside will tell him this is a bad look; 3) he has stopped caring because he rules as an authoritarian.
