The most important story of our time is not what Donald Trump wants to do, but what the people of this country allow him to do.

Join Lawrence O’Donnell in reminding folks that when Biden stumbled like this, Trump and FOX made it BIG NEWS. Now Trump sends the Guard into LA to take cameras away from this and many bigger, more devastating stumbles.

Nero fiddled while Rome burned. Trump has gone golfing and ordered a candlelight dinner at Mar-a-Lago. 😳

Seeing Howard Lutnick on CBS, reminded me of this piece, Duck and Cover, in 2009. His argument of why the crashing economy is a good thing, falls on deaf ears. Shame on CBS for giving him airtime. #shameonCBS #crashingeconomy #artquilt #artforsocialjustice #shameoncongress #shameonrepublicans

QUICK, LINDSEY, BURN THE TIE! Yes, we saw fashion-plate Lindsey Graham at the Friday bi-partisan love fest, wearing a handsome gold-and-blue tie to welcome Zelensky. Later, Lindsey witlessly played his bit part in the Oval Office reality show starring Donald and His Gang of Dupes. Very costly tie!

Latino housekeeper of an Austin (TX) friend reports two days of ICE raids on apartment complexes and businesses like car washes. Also roadblocks/arrests — resulting in a ghost town in the area, with Latino children staying home from school for fear of family separation.

Thank you for bravely standing against the confirmation of Pete Hegseth. He is clearly unqualified to lead our armed forces.
