How insecure do you have to be to feel the need to slap your name on buildings and denigrate people who had your job before you. Our president is a pathetic child.

The US Administration has banned Americans from *adopting babies* from much of the African continent.

Adopting.

Babies.

What trait do those babies have that, when they grow up as fully American adults, would make them a threat to our country in any form?
On that last post: I genuinely cannot think of any good-faith reason to bar international adoptions from those 39 countries. Under this new ban, consulates will refuse adoption visas for any baby from Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela, Nigeria, or any of the 39 other countries.

The post-Kirk purge was never about decency. Trump's response to Rob Reiner's murder proves it.

The human cost of Trump's gutting of USAID: By the time Tor Top’s mother was sick with cholera, the nearby clinic had been shuttered for weeks. He bundled her into a canoe & paddled toward the nearest hospital, 8 hours away. Less than halfway into the journey, his mother died.

Let's be clear: Republicans and anyone else who opposes gun control are totally cool with mass shootings and are making the world a more violent place full of misery. We need to defeat them and remove them from power and bring some sanity back to the world.

They want our kids dead.

Brown University is the latest proof.

After Columbine, Sandy Hook, Parkland, and Uvalde, Trump and the GOP weakened gun laws and flooded the country with weapons. Most shooters used legal guns, under laws Republicans defend.

Trump in reference to the Brown University mass shooting: “All we can do now is pray."

Thoughts and prayers play no part in reducing mass shootings. Easy access to guns & the hatred to use them, has everything to do with mass shootings and gun violence.

The horrific tragedy at Brown University is the 389th mass shooting this year and the 230th gun incident on school grounds so far this year.

This is not normal and we don't have to live this way.

ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground.

Man repeatedly begs agents to look at his digital passport ID—they refuse.

Drove him 7 miles away before releasing him alone into Minnesota snow storm—told him to "walk home" in freezing weather advisory.

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

The fact ex NYC mayor Eric Adams is guest of honor at this conference tells you all you need to know...
If you pass by Providence City Hall, don’t expect to see Mayor Smiley. He’s currently in Louisiana at a conference funded by Trump donors in an effort to suppress dissent around the genocide still happening in Gaza.

Hope he enjoys his time in New Orleans!

If the President can impose his own taxes and use the proceeds to spend on his own projects, all without Congress, we have a dictatorship not a constitutional republic.

What a stupid negotiating position in the first place. Who has only one demand? If you only have one demand there's only success or failure. And they failed. Why didn't they have, oh, I don't know, two demands, maybe even three? Who are these negotiating geniuses? Schumer has to go. All of 'em.
