"The chatter about 'woke' is an effort to distract Americans from a simple fact: the desk worker and the factory worker have way more in common with each other than they do with the capitalist leaders who make money on their backs."

One of the very few acts Biden took against anti-Palestinian violence was to sanction illegal Israeli settlers who violently attacked Palestinians in their own homes and on their own land, including by blocking aid to Gaza—which is a war crime.

Trump just lifted those sanctions.

The entire nation of Australia gets it. Media in that country are having to blur what Elon Musk did twice in public today because of laws there regarding the Nazi salute.

Trump pardons roughly 1,500 criminal defendants charged in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack

I’ve seen a lot lately about the screenwriters outdoing themselves again. But honestly, if you were crafting a fictional treatment of the demise of American democracy, you would have tried to make the characters a lot more plausible.

Biden preemptively pardoned J6 police officers who were beaten and injured, to protect them against retribution from the insurrection leader because they dared to testify truthfully before Congress.

Trump pardoned the thugs who beat them.

Trump has still not introduced a single plan or policy to lower grocery prices.

But he is taking action on day one to raise prices.

In case you're just tuning in...

Donald Trump refused to put his hand on the Bible while taking the oath of office to uphold the Constitution.

And Elon Musk did the Nazi salute. Twice.

This is going about as you'd expect.

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

Written right there in the Constitution.

The President cannot change that with the stroke of a pen.
