I don’t need to explain why it’s wildly unacceptable for the military to be illegally privately financed by the president’s wealthy allies, right?

Asked about the donor’s identity and any foreign or domestic entanglements, the WH referred questions to DoD. DoD then referred questions back to the WH

The Trump Administration has spent months wrecking the resources California needs to forecast and respond to floods and winter storms.

Via the Water Resources Department, we're coordinating with local agencies on response protocol and carrying out $2B+ in flood prevention projects across our state.

I haven’t seen a single Republican show any concern for workers going without pay, still scraping together money for childcare and transportation just to get to the office.

They just care about keeping Trump happy and blocking the Epstein files.

Trump’s priorities:

Bulldozing the White House ✅
Reopening the government ❌
Demolition crews have begun tearing down part of the White House to build President Trump’s long-desired ballroom — despite his pledge that construction of the $250 million addition wouldn’t “interfere” with the existing building. https://wapo.st/4hl7jyF

Yup.
In calling out Cuomo for only visiting a mosque AFTER he lost to a Muslim candidate, Mamdani perfectly illustrates what’s wrong with Centrist Dems. They are:
•Elitist
•Reactionary
•Out of touch
•Transactional
•Consultant driven
•Offended when shown how to do better
They’ve learned Nothing since 2016

Johnson doesn't think domestic violence is serious.
Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious

ICE is going to get someone killed.

This was outside 100 Montgomery in SF’s Financial District.

If you needed proof these rookie hires aren’t trained, here it is. Real feds de-escalate. They call for backup. They don’t drag people down the street w/a car.

Hope everyone’s OK.

The Heritage Foundation is a society of wealthy professionals and intellectuals dedicated to the preservation of the belief that the white race is superior. They are responsible for a lot of what we’ve seen build over decades. Now they have a pawn in power who is following their playbook to a tee.

Trump says “Iran must surrender”. That ‘we know where the Ayatollah is hiding and might yet kill him.’ That “We” control the skies over Teheran. Foreign policy by public whim.

Willi Castro, baseball player for the Minnesota Twins used the trans flag as eye black to showcase his support for our community. I hope he realizes how much this matters for trans people. Especially when the MLB is considered to be a very macho sport. I have so much respect for him. King shit! 🏳️‍⚧️

Mainstream media may be missing the moment, but all of you in Indivisible are meeting it. Keep the pressure on—call your electeds and show up strong for No Kings Day. We won’t let an unfit authoritarian dismantle the country we love. #NoKingsDay #Indivisible
Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.
