Almost retirement aged human widow. I am a vegan for my health. When I retire, I will have to survive on my social security alone. I am terrified of the current president's chaos. I tend to read lots and almost never post anything. Blue wave all the way!

Americans should not be drawn into a deadly and prolonged war on Iran. We all know the lessons of Afghanistan and Iraq – wars do not necessarily change regimes, but are guaranteed to destroy lives.
Stop Trump NOW.

NYC Comptroller, Brad Lander, repeatedly asks for these masked people (purported federal agents) to produce a judicial warrant.
Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.

Important exception: @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com on his TV show hammered home this point virtually every day since the (lawless) tariffs were announced.

I think this points up some of the failures of coverage of Trump's lawlessness: You could've read dozens of articles on Trump's tariff policy with no inkling of how unprecedented & legally dubious was the legal authority he claimed to impose them. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/28/b...

Van Hollen: And it's also important that people understand this case is not just about one man. It's about protecting the constitutional rights of everybody who resides in the United States of America.

Trump was asked why Afrikaner refugee applications were processed faster than other groups, and he said that a “genocide” was taking place and that “white farmers” were being targeted.
Here are the Afrikaner farmers having an expo in the middle of “white genocide.”

We are DEFINITELY still outraged about this! How about you?
Two months have passed and over 200 people are still unlawfully imprisoned in an El Salvadoran concentration camp.
Kidnapped and trafficked to another country. No due process. Court orders blatantly ignored.
We must not forget, they must be returned, and those responsible must be held accountable.

There is chaos in the house again. Well, has it really ever stopped?
The “big beautiful bill” is not going through as easily as they expected. The party is not on the same page.
Let’s them keep stumbling. It stops them from doing damage.
