Let folks live their lives.
"No one leaves home, unless home is the mouth of the shark.
You have to understand, no one puts their children in a boat, unless the water is safer than the land."

Trump tapped white nationalist Jeremy Carl for Assistant Secretary of State for International Orgs.

He called the Civil Rights Act an “anti-white weapon,” pushed the “great replacement,” called Juneteenth a “race hustle,” and compared J6 defendants to Black defendants in Jim Crow trials.

The critical strategic error made by Stephen Miller is OBVIOUS:
He assumed incorrectly that the shocking heavy handed abusive & murderous tactics by ICE would provoke a backlash of widespread violence/civil unrest, which would justify further repression of civil liberties.
It didn’t.

What are Republicans focused on today? Creating loopholes that allow weapons be sold without background checks, serial numbers, and basic accountability safeguards.

The president is overruling science to eliminate measures that protect us from pollution and environmental damage, mainly to benefit multinational corporations that have thrown money at his campaign, ballroom, and family.

It's simple corruption, and it will cost American lives and livelihoods.

To put it another way: Jeff Bezos could easily ensure there are no staff cuts at The Washington Post for the next decade, and he'd still have more than $249B in net worth left over.
Jeff Bezos' wedding last summer cost somewhere around $50M. That, alone, could have saved all 300 positions cut today at The Washington Post for a year.

Of course, he wouldn't have to choose. He could do both because he's worth $250B, which is nearly the GDP of New Zealand.

Our founders, though deeply flawed, understood that democracy requires an informed citizenry and a government accountable to it people. That’s why the press is the only profession protected by the Constitution. It’s also why autocrats and oligarchs seek to control and destroy it.

Trump, who extorted Ukraine for dirt on Biden, sabotaged the post office to disrupt voting by mail, asked SCOTUS to overturn some state's election results, and demanded red states declare he won anyway, is concerned there was voter fraud in Georgia.

Speaker Johnson is lying.

He knows that counting mail votes is not “magic” or “fraudulent,” it is following the law.

Echoing these lies shows how beholden Johnson is to the Liar In Chief, but the Speaker of the House should be above such awful behavior.

This is disgraceful.
Mike Johnson on Trump calling for Rs to "nationalize" elections: "We had 3 Republicans who were ahead on election day in last cycle & every time a new tranche of ballots came in they just magically whittled away until their leads were lost. It looks on its face to be fraudulent. Can I prove it? No"

These are government employees. So our tax dollars are funding ICE to flash white supremacist cards at vulnerable POC as an intimidation tactic. Who is giving this direction?

There’s something deeply sinister happening in this country right now, and I don’t think we can take three more years.

ICE has now purchased at least 1,639,595 sq feet of warehouses in Texas they plan to use as camps. One just 20 minutes from my house.

And that’s just two articles I’ve seen this week.

They are not changing course.
