After shifting blame for the war on Ukraine, Trump has made it clear he will be Putin's puppet on the global stage. I break down the latest developments on the Ukraine war and explain why Trump has shown his true colors.

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

Sometimes self-government just means elections. And sometimes it means recognizing the deeper dignity and meaning of what it means to be a people. That means speaking up, standing out, and protesting. We can only be free together.

It's OK to simply be decent and wish the best to those trying to survive these devastating fires in LA. But...nope. Can't have that because a vulgarian is about to assume power again and is utterly incapable of performing decency and humanity.

So, Trump went on tv and said he was going to deport children who were born here, consider investigating Joe Biden and pardon (on day one) those who violently attacked our Capitol in HIS name on January 6th

Things the vast majority of Americans are against by the way.

I keep thinking about those paycheck to paycheck “price of eggs” Trump voters who picked a billionaire to appoint other billionaires who are going to make their food less safe & more costly, their medication harder to get, their overtime nonexistent and their healthcare coverage a thing of the past.

Once you realize that Trump isn’t nominating cabinet members to RUN agencies but DESTROY them, it makes more sense.

Just to be clear: the incoming Trump administration is going to war against their own Republican senate majority and the constitution's advice and consent provision so they can make a man investigated for ***sex trafficking a minor*** into the most powerful law enforcement officer in the country.

I’ve said it before, will doubtless say it again: These folks are going to be permanently resentful because they’re seeking political power as a substitute for cultural power, and it’s never going to give them what they actually want.
I love how far afield this is from any problem government can address. “Now that Trump won people have to like and agree with me and not tell me I suck anymore.” bsky.app/profile/yash...
2. “For the last four years, very acutely, and I know it preceded these four years as well, but there's been kind of a pressing down. A pressing down and kind of limiting what people can say.”

This moment is about the rejecting or embracing of abject hatred of difference, of unapologetic racism, of dehumanization of vulnerable human beings, of narcissistic greed.
And this is worth cutting people off, of severing ties, of social media blocking.

BREAKING NEWS:

Matt Gaetz resigned from Congress today, two days before the House Ethics Committee was set to vote on releasing a “highly damaging” report about sexual misconduct, illicit drug use, and improper gifts.

The Ethics Committee loses jurisdiction over Gaetz once he leaves Congress.
