In Oversight today, my colleagues stuck to their usual script: blaming immigrants for all crime & claiming Dem mayors are too soft. Well, I was curious to know if they’ve ever had an immigrant with a criminal record that they could recall. Tune in!

WOW. Doug Collins says Veterans shouldn't just "sit there" and "feel alone," and that it's their responsibility to take care of themselves. He also accuses veterans of being incapable of understanding what's happening to their care. www.pbs.org/newshour/sho...

"No Other Land," the Palestinian-Israeli made film showing the destruction of the occupied West Bank's Masafer Yatta by Israeli soldiers, just won the Oscar for Best Documentary.

It can't get a distributor in the US.

Which tells you everything about censorship in the US.

The same week that Elon Musk baselessly called Social Security a "Ponzi scheme," his co-president Donald Trump announced that he wants to create a national crypto reserve.

This could result in taxpayer dollars being used to prop up an actual Ponzi scheme.

Hello?

What Trump and Vance did today was the most disgraceful action by any American President and Vice-President in our 249-year history. We must remove them from office.

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.”

There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

Musk’s allies were granted access to the U.S. Treasury payment system.

Treasury stays silent.

White House stays silent.

Why the secrecy? Time for an explanation and full transparency.

The GOP passed a budget resolution tonight that will gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs — as 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Why? To finance more tax cuts for the top 1%.

We have socialism in this country for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

The uncomfortable truth about Israel is that it’s not just Netanyahu, it’s their entire system and right wing ideology which we allow to coerce our own policies and politicians. How many times in our lifetimes have we been told “we stand with Israel” despite Israel not once standing with us? Enough.
