The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers.

That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

The Trump budget in one chart: Cut programs that help families and make America a leader of the world, pour money into kidnapping grad students and deporting toddlers.

This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

Where are Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, Barack Obama? Michelle Obama, Hillary? Bill? The Bush's? Where are their voices? We need them now!
We need their reasoning and decency to help combat this coup!

How much of our data/private/sensitive information is going into Musk's AI program, and isn't this how Skynet began?

Half of me thinks Trump's statements that he'll prevent Palestinians from returning to Gaza are meant to provoke a terrorist attack so that he can declare martial law and become President for life.

When I saw the disgusting "trump Gaza" video this morning, the bile rose to my throat.

I won't share it. Instead, help me promote this counter narrative by Tala, from Gaza.

"Gaza is not yours to take. Gaza is ours, and we are still here. This is our land."

BRAVO to her strength and DEFIANCE. 🥹💪

A friend from the VA just sent this and asked me to share. PMDB is Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior in the workplace. THIS is the real war against women: being forced to say there are only 2 genders but not being allowed to mention 96% of violence is perpetrated by men.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.
