During his second term, Trump has surrounded himself with groveling sycophants who tell him exactly what he wants to hear. Trump himself has always valued loyalty over integrity. It may be his undoing.

Hearing Tulsi Gabbard say James Comey should be arrested for inciting violence is quite rich considering she is a mouthpiece for a criminal who incited a violent insurrection and who continues to commit impeachable or treasonous crimes against this country and its citizenry on a daily basis.

In New York, ICE detained a busload of farmworkers that were actively involved in a union drive.
In Washington state, ICE dragged a farmworkers’ rights activist and leader out of his car to detain him.
Be warned: attacking unions is a hallmark of fascism.

Weather and climate research funds are being “chainsawed” from NOAA's budget. Last I checked, Louisiana & Florida, which are maximally susceptible to Hurricanes, voted Red in the last General Election.
Wondering if residents there knew in advance this would happen.
