Sarah Beckstrom's ex-boyfriend told NBC News she dreamed of becoming an FBI special agent.

She didn't want to deploy to D.C.

"She hated it. She cried about it."

But she started visiting monuments and museums and started enjoying it.

May she rest in peace.

The bad news is that would be between 13% and 35% of the U.S. population.

The good news is many are getting educated, most of them the hard way, finally realizing the harm Trump and his MAGA congress are doing to them daily while putting our money in their pockets.

Think about all the evil assholes in this administration.

They *all* expect to die of old age, obscenely wealthy, surrounded by family, because that is how the US has allowed *every single previous evil asshole* to live after doing their atrocities.

They learned they will never be punished.

Beloved community is formed not by the eradication of difference but by its affirmation, by each of us claiming the identities and cultural legacies that shape who we are and how we live in the world.

What do these corporations have in common?

Netflix
Ford
Tesla
T-Mobile
Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

As a psychologist I wish I had an easy answer for why there are people like this. I think "sociopathy" may be the only one. Some people are born without consciences.

I don't disagree with John but there's another layer too which is people like him should never get near power and yet they get near it often.

There's something wrong with the system that allows people like Miller to do anything more significant than bookkeeping.
I think that somewhere along the way something in Stephen Miller got fundamentally damaged. This is neither an excuse nor a mitigating factor; the dude is genuinely fucking evil and he and everything he stands for should be fought against and stopped. But he is something beyond mere sociopathy.
Since Stephen Miller is in the midst of another of his Aryans-only trantrums, we should note that his family are 20th century immigrants from the shtetl of Antopol (Антопаль) then in the Hrodna gubernia of Russia. Applying his immigration rules, they would all have perished in the Holocaust.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

If you want to know why Hegseth is panicking about reminders that there is accountably for giving or carrying out illegal orders, it’s likely because he knows he has given illegal orders to murder people.

“violent fantasy became an obsession, according to former Trump administration officials…“Fucking kill them all,” Trump would say. “An eye for an eye.” Other times he’d snap at his staff: “You just got to kill these people…Other countries do it all the time.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

"I co-wrote Trump's first anti-terrorism plan in 2017-2018. He's not trying to stop "left wing" terrorism. He is staging it.

His troop deployments are a false flag – meant to provoke a response in order to justify harsh crackdowns.

This is now very obvious."

I simply cannot with this.
The r-word is a demoralizing slur that should NEVER be used as an insult. Trump did it yesterday and plenty of otherwise tolerant blue accounts jumped on board using it to describe Trump instead.
Take the pledge below to stop using the r-word. It is wholly unacceptable.

There is also the highly flawed notion that only those from "poor countries" can be terrorists. History proves otherwise (Saudis on 9/11, to name but one).

Donald is so stupid he thinks a "permanent pause" is a logical, real thing. To pause is, by definition, not permanent. To cause something to cease, on the other hand, is permanent. No wonder he had to pay someone else to take the SAT for him.
