Situation on 14th St and W St. NW, with federal agents -- no specific agency identified -- pulling cars over for checks. They arrested a Black woman in this car.
BIG crowd of people shouting at police.
"Fuck you!"
"What is wrong with you!"
"You don't need to terrorize people like this!"

Trump and Elon both are druggies. The only difference is that only one of them won an election.
Large amounts of ketamine can make anyone feel like they rule the world. When should Americans start worrying about Elon Musk’s regular use? Shayla Love reports:

My dear friend wrote this piece and has since had to lock down her social accounts because of trolling, including from the Muskrat himself.

Shameful is right.
Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

Trump's Social Security Administration commissioner just called for a 50% staff reduction.
This would gut SSA field offices and make it harder for millions of seniors to access benefits.
Make no mistake: this is an attack on Social Security itself.

This is absolutely devastating and is unlikely to be an isolated issue. Please, if you are terminated and feeling alone or like harming yourself, please reach out. Dial 988, you can DM any of the #Altgov accounts. We are here for you. Please check on people you know who have been terminated. 💔
On the HHS Leadership call today: 1 employee from CMS (Center for Medicare/Medicaid Service) and 2 employees from SSA (Social Security Administration) have died by suicide after their firing.

A # of problems would have been greatly reduced by white men simply liking themselves instead of measuring their self-worth by the oppression of others.
The ideology of white supremacy & patriarchy is a collective self-esteem failure that prevented many people from building a self-worth on merit.
