I'm a refugee from FB. #MichiganWomenforDemocracy.

I'm a political person, but avoid tv news of any persuasion. To save my sanity. Humor is important to me.

Retired, so I have lots of time to read. Non-fiction.

I’m still thinking about “quiet, piggy.” No president should be able to speak to a member of the press that way and remain president. That moment encapsulates how vile, misogynistic, and horrible that man is.

Trump pardoned them, but state charges are state charges.

Yikes 😬 an official U.S. government account just referred to Americans as “imbecilic morons.” That’s… a choice.

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

"Among those detained were South Korean employees on business travel....

"The raid could raise concerns for South Korean companies that are sending personnel to the US and hiring locally."

It comes weeks after Hyundai pledged $26 billion in US investments.

McMorrow: What Trump has done is weaponize us against each other, when everybody needs hospitals, good schools, and health care.

It has become this battle for scarcity, when we’re the wealthiest country in the world. We should not be fighting each other for our basic needs.

Hugely important pushback against those people who said that Trump was going to get a boost from the LA unrest.

No. The average member of the public seems to be able to distinguish between bad acts of individual rioters and the broader reasons for the unrest, which is Trump and ICE’s overreach.
Harry Enten: "I think we can say Donald Trump has lost the political battle when it comes to what has happened in Los Angeles. Trump's net approval rating on LA - way, way underwater at -15 points... this is happening on what should be on Donald Trump's best issue ... he's losing on his core issue"

The U.S. Army swore in four Big Tech executives as Lieutenant Colonels:
- Palantir’s CTO
- Meta’s CTO
- OpenAI’s Chief Product Officer
- OpenAI’s former Chief Research Officer

All of these people are surely connected to fascist Peter Thiel, as Zuckerberg (Meta) and Altman (OpenAI) are his protégés.

BREAKING: What you just witnessed was a state-sanctioned kidnapping. These people aren’t identifying themselves. Citizens can no longer distinguish between state authority & rogue violence.

This is not a warning about what might come. We are not watching the start of something. We are living it.

If this is how this administration responds to a Senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, and to day laborers throughout California and across the country.

We will hold this administration accountable.
