I’m trying not to react to all the ‘stuff’ flowing from the Trump people. However it’s incredibly difficult to remain sane in this increasingly complex of discourse designed to overwhelm ethics and societal morality.

OTD, the Respect for Marriage Act was signed into law, securing marriage equality for all Americans. While MAGA Republicans continue to push policies that threaten equality and undermine basic freedoms, Democrats stand firm in protecting LGBTQ+ rights. Love is love!

She took it back, but when Sec Def Hegseth's own Mom writes him an email in the middle of a "difficult" divorce accusing him of abusing "many" women, how does the Senate confirm him? Do GOP Senators have any character left, or are they just going to bend the knee? www.nytimes.com/2024/11/29/u...

Penelope Hegseth made the accusation in an email to her son in 2018, amid his contentious divorce. She said on Friday that she regretted the email and had apologized to him.

So a reminder:
It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom.
It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president.
It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child.
For the record.

Whatever a border czar is, they don't have arrest authority. Federal law enforcement officers do, pending judicial enforcement. Consultation with prosecutors is the norm for pre-planned arrests & here's the kicker: people being arrested must have actually committed a crime.

Proud of my bipartisan Inspector General Parity Act. This reform improves oversight & strengthens the Government Accountability Office to continue detecting fraud, & corruption in government. More important now than ever.

Project 2025: It's On (Predictably)
Before Bill Barr became Donald Trump’s third attorney general, he circulated a memo that was more or less an audition tape for the job he ultimately got.

Difficult to describe what a dangerous moment we are in.
The owner of Twitter/richest man in the world/closest adviser to the next US president is promoting a far-right Tommy Robinson (!) documentary to his 200 million followers.
This is the mainstreaming of violent, Islamophobic fascism.

Who knew? When fossil fuel companies are told where they’re emitting methane they don’t do anything about it. Can’t be trusted.
