The party of small government is currently advocating for federal troops and members of the military to patrol the streets and detain citizens.
And the GOP fluffers on social media are just… fine with that?

Crockett: The only weakling is the Governor himself. It’s not Texans that asked him to do this—it is the criminal in the White House that begged for him to do this.

Weingarten: Their attacks on public education are relentless and why? Because they fear knowledge. Why do they fear teachers? They fear us because we teach critical thinking… their brand of greed, power, and privilege cannot survive in a democracy of diverse educated citizens

Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd.

This is the 20th straight hour of Booker speaking. This is the energy and honesty we need in a Senate leader, not what we have been getting. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Yes, tariffs are a tax, but people don't mention often enough that they are a regressive tax. Taxes on consumer goods tax the poor at a higher rate, as basic necessities are a much larger part of their spending.
If food goes up by 20%, it is a tax on the poor. Rich people won't even notice.

JFC the chutzpah of this guy. He's STILL trying to brazen it out. Sounds like maybe he got a little too used to performing for an audience that believes whatever it's told. The idea that the info in that thread wouldn't have been classified is laughable. It's not just false; it's absurd.
When I worked at NATO, benign details about war game *simulations* were classified, much less particulars about actual attacks. The idea that this info wouldn't have been classified is a total fantasy (and an outright lie).

Project 2025 calls for using public channels of communication (like Signal) instead of secure government channels, to subvert FOIA requests and conceal damning information from the public. This was no rookie mistake. It's the plan.
