The guy who blew up at Cybertruck in front of Trump’s Las Vegas Hotel was a rabid Trump supporter, his uncle confirms.

I’m sure the corporate media will make this story disappear now.

STOP LETTING THE GOP DEFINE THE TERMS. "Entitlement" is a LEGAL TERM indicating that someone "holds title" to something. That is to say, WE OWN IT. We EARNED it.

Using "entitlement" as a pejorative is GOP propaganda & every time you say "it's NOT an entitlement," you are playing their game. STOP!

NEVER FORGET: Senator Lindsey Graham calls Social Security and Medicare "ENTITLEMENTS" (THEY'RE EARNED BENEFITS) & wants to cut them because he doesn't NEED them.

Lindsey Graham is the EPITOME of ENTITLED. When his sister NEEDED his parents Survivor Benefits he didn't say "no, we don't want them."😡

Great advice @jilldlawrence.bsky.social! I especially like the "don't wuss out" bit. Love the Costco example. 🥰
As she sums it up, “disagree without being a jerk, calmly explain your reasons for disagreeing, and reassure people they won’t be left out or behind.”

Her Substack article is excellent; we can adopt it, and, contra Steve Bannon, “Flood the zone with reason.” 2/2

The combined net worth of America's twelve wealthiest people passed $2 trillion last year.

12 people. $2 trillion.

Meanwhile, U.S. homelessness increased 18% in 2024.

Our problem isn’t an issue of resources.

Our problem is ever-expanding wealth inequality.

While it is unknown if the New Orleans and Trump Hotel/Cybertruck attacks are linked, "the symbolism suggests they might be: Radical Islamist terrorists often choose targets that represent what they consider American moral and cultural profanity."

The apparent terror attack in New Orleans was a tragedy. But it wasn’t a shock.

Attention, Republicans: Unlawful border crossings along the U.S.-Mexico border have dropped to a four-year low, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

GOP obsessions with immigrants have nothing to do with facts, and everything to do with the most transparent, hideous racism…

So websites become just like TV channels and our ISP the cable company, essentially, right? If that's correct that's probably the best way to warn people about what's coming.

The next thing at risk are your rights.

This constant drumbeat of anti-immigrant rhetoric has a more insidious purpose.

It's not just about the immigrants.

It's about flexing their power and intimidating anyone who stands in their way.

We must never allow them to succeed.

$2.5T cut to Medicare, Medicaid, veterans benefits, nutrition assistance is beyond outrageous. The GOP is a party of helping the rich, no matter what they say. Sad commentary. We must never give up.
