Can you imagine how the media would cover this if Biden (or any other president) had fabricated a story about condom bombs? But since it’s Trump, I doubt they’ll even mention it.
Donald Trump: “We identified and stopped $50 million being sent to Gaza to buy condoms for Hamas. And you know what's happened to them? They've used them as a method of making bombs.”🤡🤡

Is it too soon to imagine a future after all the undocumented workers have been deported that the Trump regime starts arresting dissidents to fill the for-profit prisons and uses them (us) for forced labor?

Our economy is far larger than it was decades ago.

Where have most of the gains gone? To the top.

Any path forward must include a fight to restructure the economy toward more widely shared prosperity.

This isn’t a blue state vs. red state phenomenon. It’s a class phenomenon.

The Stupidest President, #2 in a series
Trump: "We shouldn't be in a position where you have tumbleweed that's dry as a bone. Even tumbleweed can be nice & green & rich & it's not gonna burn. You don't even have to remove it. It's not gonna burn. But it's just dry. So I hope you can all get together & say I'm so happy with the water."

Trump's Day One executive orders were a huge gift to to the Big Pharma, Big Tech, Big Oil, and private prison companies who bankrolled his campaign.

The big losers? Ordinary Americans desperate for lower costs.

On MLK, Jr. Day, Dr. King’s words continue to inspire me. Now more than ever, we must stand up against hate and injustice. It will be up to all of us to carry on his legacy and continue working for a brighter, more equal future.

A pregnancy center can bill Texas $14 for distributing diapers that cost the center just over $.25. And before parents can get those diapers, they must take a class that the center can bill the state $30 for each hour of class a client attends.

Trump could easily stay quiet on these fires until he is President, but he is so weak he needs a villan and needs to be the victim.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus on California: We have fire crews in the danger zones. The Canadian military is now on full alert to help. That’s what we do—we help our neighbors in times of crisis.

The fact that Trump isn’t there.. is shocking but this is what criminal grifters do.

Republican Bruce Fischer, the husband of Nebraska Republican Senator Deb Fischer, refused to shake hands (or even make eye contact) with Vice President Kamala Harris during his wife’s swearing-in ceremony. This election was never about the economy. It was always about white supremacy.
