This is my kind of good trouble.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

Genuine question for the women still riding for this man: how do you watch him call women “piggy,” trash survivors by calling their trauma a “hoax,” and still stare at your reflection without wondering what happened to your self-respect?

Tom Friedman looks at the 28 pt plan which the Kremlin authored and Trump subscribed, and he proposes a Neville Chamberlain Prize. But most commenters think that comparison is very unfair to Neville Chamberlain.

The “deal” deprives Ukraine of everything it has won by withstanding Russian aggression and defending the borders of Europe.
It rewards Russian lawlessness—and makes America complicit in the lawlessness.
It’s the end of post WWII American power.
