Republicans would rather cut taxes for billionaire donors than fund research for children with cancer.
That is why our country is on the brink of a government shutdown that will crash the economy, hurt working class Americans and likely be the longest in history.
Welcome back to the MAGA swamp.

There is a very noticeable dichotomy going on in posts I see these days.
A whole bunch of white pundits/influencers/journos wailing “Where is Biden/Harris? Why aren’t they doing X?”
And a whole bunch of Black accounts wondering at what point reality will finally sink in for the wailers.

Isn’t it interesting how the media and pundit class dudes who are moaning about Dems being a party of “woke scolds” are mostly the same dudes that spent the election months scolding Dems about things like couch jokes?

This was a very close election. Trump does not have a mandate to impose sweeping changes, and Democrats are fools to cower to Mr. 49%.
With California's votes now certified, this appears to be the final popular vote count. The margin of 1.47 percentage points is the smallest since the 2000 election. Kamala Harris received over 75 million votes in this election.

I'm not hearing the same calls from political reporters for us to understand Kamala Harris's 75 million voters as I heard for us to understand Donald Trump's 74 million voters in the last election. Why is that? 🤔

My latest on Trump's fight to control the information space and the disgraceful capitulation by some in media and tech moguls before he has even taken office
Manipulating the Narrative: Trump, Tech Giants, and the Battle for the Information Space
Donald Trump’s return to power is shaping up to be a cautionary tale of how authoritarian ambitions intertwine with control over the information space.

No one — large account or small — owes you a follow. People follow and unfollow for lots of reasons and many people are wary of cluttering up their feeds with misinfo again.

"If, at some point in the future, Democracy Docket goes quiet or goes bankrupt, it will be because its subscribers and members have decided that it is no longer worth supporting. Until then, I can promise you, it will not obey and it will not back down."

From Marc | Since the election, media figures and outlets have followed suit — each moving gradually towards obedience to Trump and then suddenly.

We are asking Ukrainians to defeat the armies of Putin and Kim Jong Un. In their efforts to do so, Ukrainians helped bring down Assad. Ukrainian resistance is one of the most stunning military achievements in modern history.

The Postal Reorganization Act of 1970 made the US Postal Service an independent organization. It hasn’t been part of the Cabinet for over half a century. It takes ten seconds to Google the fact that Biden never had the power to fire DeJoy.

In a plea deal today, Alexander Smirnov admitted he made up the Ukrainian bribery allegations against Joe Biden, claims that derailed Hunter Biden’s plea deal.
The press should be ashamed for fueling this nonsense. It’s further proof a pardon for Hunter was the right move.

A lot of folks are upset or worried about “angry Black Women” but folks should have always been worried about us being indifferent.
An indifferent Black Woman is an entirely different beast. The fight is not gone but the desire to show folks that a hard head makes a soft ass has replaced it🤷🏾♀️

And THIS is where we have to break them. Its why you have Joe Scarborough bitching at us through the TV. This was the gambit, and we need to follow through with not rewarding their gambit. I meant it when I said I'm not watching the chaos for another four years. I can't do it.
This is what the big media play is, that we'll all be glued to our screens watching their coverage of all the day to day craziness, which is why they did everything they could to get him back in.
I’d go weeks not thinking about Biden’s government. Now, every day will be a 24 hour reality TV episode filled with billionaire clowns and their sycophants “governmenting.”
