Been saying for years NBC is not the liberal/progressive network people think it is. It just panders. And thus we see them showing their asses.

NBC just gutted the very teams that gave marginalized voices a seat at the table—then called it “restructuring.”

The cuts:

📌NBC BLK (Black community coverage)

📌NBC Latino (Latino community coverage)

📌NBC Asian America (Asian American community coverage)

📌NBC Out (LGBTQ+ community coverage)

A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.

I’m still shocked that stories like this which come out daily still get largely ignored. The most corrupt person to ever hold any public office in US history. I will keep posting them every day and try to amplify them, even when most media doesn’t care. www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

Trump hosted a dinner last week for White House ballroom donors.

Then he went to Mar-a-Lago for a $1 million-per-person dinner benefiting his super PAC.

Last night, he treated big GOP donors to dinner on his new White House patio.

The government has been shut down for 22 days.

Q: What does it say that president released a video of him pooping on the American people?

MIKE JOHNSON: You can argue he's probably the most effective person who has ever used social media. He's using satire to make a point. He's not calling for the murder of his political opponents.

Under Kristi Noem's leadership, ICE is now shooting dogs.

Which means ICE will probably soon be sleeping with Corey Lewandowski, too.
EL PASO — a family says ICE showed up at their house looking for migrants and shot and KILLED THEIR DOG, then didn’t help them as the agent ran away and was not identified.

“Fuck them kids.”

That’s literally what an ICE agent said when ICE, the FBI et al. raided an apartment in Chicago, including with a Blackhawk helicopter, separated children from their parents, and zip-tied them to each other.

Your legacy is the way you made people feel. Your words and actions and rhetoric.

It’s how you’ll be remembered. It’s your lasting impact on others.

We should be helpers in this world, not only because it’s right and good and just, but because it is the legacy we leave for others.
