Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind?

It's not because of immigrants, trans people, DEI, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP.

It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

You know what’s one of the great things about the No Kings protests today?

No one is going to storm the U.S. Capitol.

If ICE agents are proud of what they're doing, then why do they cover their faces like cowards, refuse to identify themselves, and hide behind anonymity?

It's well-known fact that, along with tortoises, bowhead whales and rougheye rockfish, hedgehogs will often live for well over a century, and their taste in literature will only get more esoteric with each passing year.
For Joan the hedgehog?

Following a rich white man to war because you didn’t like the sound of a black woman laughing will go down in American history as one of the stupidest things ever.

Congress died the moment they allowed 147 insurrectionists to remain in office instead of expelling them and charging them with sedition. That’s just my opinion.

West Point graduates this morning sat through a commencement speech about having courage given by a treasonous convicted felon who also happens to be a 5x draft dodging coward who has never served anyone but himself. Depraved, despicable and embarrassing.

I recently turned 60 years old.

Seems impossibly ancient.

And yet. Even now, I find I can still learn new things.

New White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt did her first press briefing today and told a number of demonstrable lies (about condoms for Gaza, the criminal records of undocumented migrants, and more).

This is how the New York Times covered it.
