Democrat, Ex-Pat from NY, living in the Netherlands. Gutted by what's happening in the US & the world. Liberal. Pro Choice. Equality. Pro LGBTQ. Basic human decency! BLM. Slava Ukraine! Read this: NO DMs MEANS NO DMs. DM = IMMEDIATE BLOCK!
It's insane that CNN and other major news media actually pretended like there was no "Rally to Remove the Regime" protests this past weekend. They are unrecognizable. Shame on them all. If they think that once this is all over they will regain the trust of people like me, they are sadly mistaken

This entire nation is not well, because in the highest position of leadership, we have one of the most amoral, lawless, vile, hateful human beings to ever walk the planet: a man devoid of decency, bereft of empathy, and allergic to truth...

I Spoke on the National Mall. Here's What I Said About the Cancer of Donald Trump...
Over the weekend, I gathered with thousands of people from every corner of this nation for ‘Remove the Regime,’ a rally calling for the impeachment, conviction, and removal of Donald Trump.

Welker: Do you think that Trump is a fascist?

Mamdani: That’s something that I’ve said in the past. I say it today.

Welker: You’ve called him a despot. Do you still believe Trump is a threat to the democracy?

Mamdani: Everything that I’ve said in the past, I continue to believe.

His ignorance is a danger to everyone. He needs to be removed.
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.

What the hell: The US accidentally invaded Mexico on Monday, storming a beach and planting DoD “restricted area” signs claiming the land for “the commander,” and triggered a standoff with armed Mexican security forces, all because Trump’s government can’t even identify a border on a map. 🧵 1/

Turning the military on citizens.

Attempting to rig elections.

Toying with the idea of declaring martial law.

Attacking political opponents and calling for their executions.

Republicans admit their plan to double ACA premiums & throw 15M off health care is a disaster.

Trump’s “big idea” — a one-time check of AT MOST $6,500 — won't even cover cancer treatment or childbirth.

Health care is a human right. It's time to expand Medicare & cut drug prices.
Republicans finally want to talk about health care. That’s good — but their ideas are absurd. - The Boston Globe
Their proposals would take our already broken health care system and make it even worse. Here’s what we should do instead.

Attendees at last night’s White House dinner honoring MBS were all doing business with him and Saudi Arabia.

Under Trump, the only normative rule is to gain as much power and money as possible.

Power and wealth are honored, even if the honoree has greenlit a brutal murder.
