Obviously there’s bigger news today, but it’s worth noting that the inflation numbers were quite bad this morning, especially for grocery prices and gasoline.

Are we sick enough of this fucking bullshit...yet? Or, do we need to see more trampling of the Constitution, and more innocent immigrants snatched off the Goddamn streets, or from their apartments/homes? Do we need to see another Goddamn active duty military member picked up and detained?

This was always the plan. Try anti-immigrant laws out in Alabama. Put in place enhanced requirements for voter ID. It’s why nothing under Trump has surprised people down here. I call it the Alabamization of America. Looking forward to reading this book!
My friend, David Pepper of Ohio, wrote a book called Laboratories of Autocracy . This is what he was talking about.
Our states have been run as authoritarian proving grounds for decades. What they’ve done to us, they plan to do to the entire country.

2. Was mocked for sharing a Superman Trump image
3. Had officials contemplating quitting
4. Went to his golf club after brief Texas flood photo-op
5. Kept the Epstein files cover-up going another week

Supporting Ukraine incDefeating Russia (and dealing a blow to China) is much much cheaper than maintaining a defense posture to eventually fight Russia.
We could then focus almost everything on China, after Russia falls
