Much of the cardboard and paper goods strewn about our homes are sold by a single private company, with its name, Uline, stamped on the bottom.

Many may not know that a multibillion-dollar fortune made on those ubiquitous products fuels far-right candidates across the country.

(Published 2022)
That Cardboard Box in Your Home Is Fueling Election Denial
A previously unreported boom in profits for the shipping supply giant Uline has provided the funds for a deeply conservative Midwestern family to bankroll anti-democracy causes around the country.

We do.

Speaking of, don’t forget about April 5 protests!

I think some Dems have done a good job amplifying the protests, but we need to collectively make sure April 5 is huge

The media showed every Trump rally but won’t show a single Bernie Sanders rally. Now that we control the biggest independent news network in America we will flip the script and show every Bernie Sanders rally, like the last one on Sunday in Altoona, Wisconsin youtu.be/2StnaGCQPCI?...

Hold the line. Let this be on them
The reckless Republican budget will be debated on the House floor today.

It represents the largest cut to Medicaid in American history.

Children, families, seniors, hospitals and nursing homes will be devastated.

House Democrats are a Hard NO.

Billionaire co-founder of AirBnB Joe Gebbia has joined Elon Musk’s DOGE team, so let’s spread awareness and make sure nobody books a goddamn thing through AirBnB ever again, shall we?

So when you go to Amazon, peeps, find the product you like and go directly to the company's website to purchase. It's a win-win. Sales go down for Bezos, and more money goes in the pocket of the vendor who doesn't have to pay Amazon fees.
Last Fall, the Washington Post allowed a right wing group to run a full page ad falsely attacking me for protecting voting rights. Today, Bezos' paper won't accept ads criticizing Elon Musk.

Support pro-democracy media.

Trump takes a taxpayer-funded joyride at the rained-out Daytona 500—while gutting the federal workforce.

But the rain didn’t stop him from hogging the spotlight. Meanwhile, over on NASCAR’s official Instagram page—he was dragged for filth in replies…

This is really extremely bad: withholding urgent public health studies because they’re not convenient for the president’s political narrative.
It's not just that officials have blocked CDC from publishing bird flu studies

Scientists were ordered to come up with studies on health risks of wildfires instead

That came as the president was criticizing the California governor's handling of fires

You know… because we were making it too damned hard for Putin to interfere. The poor guy had to resort to calling in fake bomb threats in heavily democratic polling locations in swing states to be sure his boy won the election. Pam had to do something to make it easier for him in future elections. 😡

Absolutely critical point here. The gutting of civil service protections will make career officials less willing to expose corruption and wrongdoing inside agencies by the MAGA loyalists. In this sense, the purging of the "deep state" is supposed to work for Trump/MAGA on two levels.
Not a coincidence that Trump is creating the need for whistleblowers at the same time he is removing federal employee job protections
“Whistleblowers are needed now more than any time in my time in public service.”

-Sen Ron Wyden, quoted in this piece. I think we should take this warning extremely seriously. We're in real trouble and insiders need to step up.

Trump: "I'll be signing an EO to begin process of fundamentally reforming & overhauling or maybe getting rid of FEMA. I think, frankly, FEMA is not good. When you have a problem like this, you want to use your state to fix it & not waste time calling FEMA..I think we're gonna recommend FEMA go away"

I seriously think Trump is retarded
Idiot.
Trump: "In California, millions of gallons of waters are waiting to be poured down through already the half pipes that are already built. I mean, they've been up for 40 years and about 20 years ago they turned off the water. And it's the water that comes from the Pacific Northwest."

Roof sprinklers are relatively inexpensive and easy to use for protection against sweeping fires. A single house in Paradise survived with these.

The LAT says that Los Angeles could have put fire trucks in Pacific Palisades as the winds began to kick up and before the fires. Really? What about Malibu, Pasadena, Sunland, Encino, San Dimas, Cerritos, Long Beach? Why would the fire department know in advance where a fire would start?
