If you want to know why Hegseth is panicking about reminders that there is accountably for giving or carrying out illegal orders, it’s likely because he knows he has given illegal orders to murder people.

I hate that negativity gets all the amplification by social media algorithms.

Let’s amplify LOVE instead.

I am beaming love at you. Right now.

Fuck the haters. I defy you. I am beaming extra love right into your face. Relax and be loved.

It’s actually really serious that every mainstream Republican believes that any American who peacefully protests against Trump “hates America”.

Like it’s not just a weird thing they say. It shows how they’ve given up on democracy. And it should freak you out.

Look at this graph.

The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened.

This is why we must build back union power.

Senator Young could have prevented this, but he has sold his soul for reelection.

Thanks, Senator Todd Young. Awesome of you to choose MAGA over feeding people.
Why?

In part, because the destruction of USAID has made it near impossible to distribute the food.

Calculations suggest that it could have fed every starving child in Gaza for a week.

And roughly a million dollars up in smoke — due to DOGE.
