This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

I’ve seen just one counter-protester at No Kings San Diego. He’s got a Trump 2024 flag and this guy has been following him around for probably an hour playing Benny Hill and circus music.

Pritzker: Neither Texas nor the FBI at the federal level has the authority to arrest these Texas Democrats

They’re welcome to visit to take in the great views and enjoy the incredible restaurants we have. But they won’t be taking anyone home with them, or out of the state.

“A footnote disappears from a museum wall. A statistic vanishes behind a firing.A historian is told to revise.A professor is told to omit.A memory gets redacted.Until the ground beneath your feet-the very texture of what is real-has been scrubbed until you can’t tell which way is forward.”

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Do as I say, not as I do.
Rep. Andy Ogles -- who apparently lied about his undergrad major, his fake graduate degrees, his past careers variously as an economist, a cop, and an expert in international sex crimes and so much more -- says that if another politician "fudged" about his own past then he should be deported.
Ogles on Trump's big bill: "Now, ICE is gonna have the personnel and resources to come into cities like Nashville and New York and quite frankly deport people ... if Zohran fudged on his immigration forms, we may very well be deporting him. Time will tell."

SAY IT PLAIN: Federal “ICE officers” should not be anonymous.

And this shouldn’t be a controversial thing to say.

So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street
