She was absolutely correct, except that she should have known the capitulation would happen because it's always been there when it comes to the orange felon. They refused to impeach him after J6 or hold him accountable for stealing classified documents.

Kamala Harris, "You're correct that I did predict a lot of it. What I did not predict was the capitulation. I didn't see that coming"

One of the things that really upsets me about the current reality is that all things considered, we're doing really well.

Spouse and I are successful and our kids have a pretty good life. But instead of being able to enjoy that or build a foundation for our kids, we have to plan for crisis.

A reminder: FEMA is no longer going door-to-door to assist disaster victims

[From our Climate Desk partner @wired.com]
FEMA will no longer go door-to-door to assist disaster victims
The move, says one agency worker, will “severely hamper our ability to reach vulnerable people.”

Wisconsin Supreme Court strikes down state's 1849 near-total abortion ban
Abortion providers in the state resumed the procedure in 2023 after a judge ruled that the 176-year-old ban was superseded by a more recent law.

Final vote. 50-50. VP breaks the tie.

One single GOP Senator could have stopped this abomination. Saved millions of parents from watching their child go hungry. Saved the lives destroyed when Medicaid disappears.

They will all live forever with the horror of this bill.

Pete Buttigieg is right—so much is at stake. Call your representative and tell them to stop the "Big, Beautiful Bill" NOW: 202-224-3121.

📌The dollar is off to its weakest start to a year since 1973, tumbling a whopping 10%, because Trump is a worldwide laughingstock -- hated and untrusted.
Right now he is pushing for the greatest transition of wealth in American history. He is grotesque and repulsive. These things aren't said enough.

This is a Hall of Fame reader comment on a very reactionary op-ed about Zohran Mamdani's victory that was published in my local paper today.

Folks can argue about the relevancy of the “Democratic socialist” label all day. But if that’s what you’re hung up on, you’re missing the larger point.

People aren’t chasing labels. They’re chasing change. Real, structural, unapologetic change.

It's not just about numbers - it's about people. Real people who will struggle to feed their families, real kids who will go hungry, and real communities that will suffer.

This is the definition of corruption. Foreign governments putting money in the President’s pocket and the USA giving the national security concessions that hurt our own security.

Half of American voters voted to install a criminal in the White House. So the steady series of crimes — bribery, extortion, defiance of court orders — is to be expected. Crimes are what Trump does.
