The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

Way to step up, Reign. ICE has no business doing "security" for the CWC. It is tragic that any socer fan has to forgo the game for fear of being disappeared.
The NWSL knows that you shouldn’t go to the CWC #FIFA

This guy stole $10 million from the employees of his nursing home to buy himself a luxury yacht and Cartier watches. He PLED GUILTY.

And because his Mom gave Trump $1 million, he just got a pardon.

And this story barely makes the news today. WTF. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...

Fact check: nearly 70 percent of US money for Ukraine actually went to US defense industry to replenish the stocks of OLD stuff that went to Ukraine to use.

Much of which we would have paid to destroy as their lifespan expired.

Here is the oath all executive branch employees take. It is to support and defend the Constitution, not to “implement the president’s agenda.” If the two purposes diverge, the Constitution prevails.

Demonstrably, this is true 👇
I don't know how to drive home to people that the republican house and senate HAVE NO LINE

There's nothing trump can do that will get them to say no.

Stop thinking "surely they can't let THIS go"

They can. They have. They will.
I think there’s some truth to this.

But Musk / Trump have to roll out their coup quickly. And as they go cutting NIH, defense and agriculture they are going to run into further internal questions about whether GOP Sen can let these things go. Even the House, one has to expect. What will they do?

So much for America being the leader in biomedical research.
NIH has cut billions of dollars in biomedical funding, effective immediately
The move halts a large slice of money for most universities and research institutions virtually overnight, imperiling vital research in everything from cancer to heart disease.
