Democracy depends on a fearless and free press.
Corporations or ultra-wealthy individuals with many other business interests should not be allowed to control our media.
They cannot be trusted to prioritize the public’s right to know over their own financial interests.

Liberals: “We could try to DO some things to reduce gun violence; ‘thoughts and prayers’ isn’t enough.”
Republicans: “Outrage! Disgrace! They’re attacking prayer.”
There’s no need to be polite or defensive in response to this. Invoking faith as an excuse to shun responsibility deserves no respect.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

P0TUS bragging that his tariffs are "already" bringing TRILLIONS of $$ into the US.
Beyond the fact that it's not true, will you please ask him, "If that's so, then there's no need to even discuss cutting social services, medicine, education, air safety, etc etc. Right?"

Booker: For people with 401(k) accounts and retirement savings, they’ve lost thousands. I’ve been hearing from people who had hoped to retire this year after working 25, 30, or even 35 years, but now they don’t think they have enough money because he’s taken $6 trillion overall out of the markets.

Trump is crashing the US Economy.
The ways to remove him via impeachment or the 25th Amendment are broken.
At some point, some Republican Congresspeople must recognize that they must choose between Country and fealty to a Mad King.

Trump says tariffs will help US workers, but he may actually be putting them out of a job.
Not only do tariffs make it harder for American companies to source products, but retaliation from our trading partners will shrink export markets.
