Not sure who needs to hear this, but to become a naturalized US citizen, an immigrant green card holder must ALREADY pass a high school level test on American history and civics.

Most native-born Americans would fail the test if they had to take it

We are failing a generation of boys and young men, who are being poisoned by their parents, media, churches, and politicians to believe that their worth is in their aggression, that empathy is liability, and that strength is only what you can bench press.

from poor pregnant women
have advanced to taking food away
from poor actual babies.

"I'm telling you, if he does just one more thing, I am going take extraordinary action and wag my finger at him very hard -- maybe two fingers if I'm feeling very angry. But I don't like to behave this way because I have a tendency to get heartburn when I am upset."

The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.

Maybe, just maybe, Americans don’t need to be paid money to hold political leaders accountable for bad policy decisions.

A federal judge in Washington said that the way the Trump administration set up and has been running Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency could violate the Constitution.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back?

Hey everyone. It’s Feb 3rd, and the Democrats have been at home since Jan 24th because the house is out of session.

They should have come back, the place is on fire.

Get suing, messaging, demonstrating, speaking, everything and ANYTHING

friendly reminder that the best case scenario over the coming years is that a lot of people say "I supported Trump but this isn't what I wanted at all" and when they do that it's gonna be really, really important that we say "welcome in," not "fuck you, we told you so"
