We are dealing with such corruption in every aspect of our government, I don't know how we undo the damage.

Healthy futurist community that their government pays attention to.
Finland ended homelessness with a housing first strategy that gave people apartments before they secured employment
Now they’re proposing a 4 day work week and 6 hour work days
True work life balance
Meanwhile in the US, people work two jobs and can’t afford food or healthcare.

Exactly why the Ellisons are completely unfit to own Warner and CNN — even with all their wealth, what a bunch of acquiescent stooges. They are uninterested in making journalism better or a better business, but happy to make it better for Trump.

The U.S. is mirroring a pattern that has happened in authoritarian regimes around the world. When a government erects barriers to reproductive care, it doesn’t just cause death and suffering for women and their families. Such policies are often a first step in the gradual decline of democracies.
Opinion | Banning Abortion a Hallmark of Authoritarian Regimes
Seda Saluk writes about how U.S. policy on abortion rights has started to mirror patterns seen in authoritarian regimes around the world.

As with everything he says, this is wildly uninformed. Formula keeps getting better and saves lives. And modern research indicates that outcomes are roughly the same. There are reasons to breastfeed but your child isn’t suffering if you don’t
RFK Jr: "All of the ingenuity of corporate America has not produced an infant formula that is superior in nutrition and all the qualities that we want to the infant formula that God made, which is the infant formula in a mother's breast."

Trump says Lisa Cook is unfit to be a Fed governor because she claimed two different properties as her primary residence on her mortgage applications. (Cook denies this.)
Trump did the exact same thing on mortgage applications submitted a mere 7 weeks apart.

How about expanding the composition of the court? There is precedent for that.
The Supreme Court is working hard to turn this country into a despot's dreamscape—while making it nigh impossible for good people to make lasting change for the better.
Those of us who begged folks (and national media) to put SCOTUS before everything else in 2016 are in an endless Cassandrian hell.

Oligarchy (noun):
A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

How much of a turnaround from a guy who imagined Iraq was going nuclear.
“The Caribbean operation is the foreign policy equivalent of one of those domestic ‘emergencies’ he is forever declaring in order to access extraordinary, otherwise extra-legal powers. So Trump plans to bootstrap every shady thing into the concept of ‘self-defense’.”

ICE is going after people who commit fewer crimes than U.S. born citizens. They're robbing people, hurting people, using racial profiling, violating due process, hurting children, and going after American citizens while they do. This is an illegal criminal enterprise from head to toe.

So now MTG is worried that Trump's hateful rhetoric can incite violence. I'm sorry she and her son have been threatened. But Trump has been doing this to others for years, and it apparently never bothered MTG. It's very MAGA to only care about stochastic terrorism when you're the target.
The president who watched Jan. 6 violence on TV and responded to Kevin McCarthy's desperate call from inside the Capitol with "well, Kevin, I guess these people are more upset about the election than you" doesn't think death threats against anyone even a little in his way is a bad thing?
Huh.
Huh.
Marjorie Taylor Greene claims she shared with Trump death threat she received that he incited, and his response was "extremely unkind"

How obvious that Justice will shut out Netflix.
Q: If Paramount is supported by Jared Kushner, would that impact your decision?
TRUMP: If Paramount is? I don't know. I've never spoken with him about that. He's really trying to work on Gaza.
