Every day, we're bombarded with the bad news of Trump 2.0. It is exhausting to keep track of each new outrage. That's the clear intent.

The Trump transgressions come so quickly that they distract from one another. And when one is caught in the crossfire, it's hard to address the big picture.

Don't let the daily outrages obscure the big picture.

Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans.

This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota:

“Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

Look at these dumb bubbas
Welcome to Minnesota, fuckers. Also this is super disturbing because the ICE agent's assault rifle appears to fire as he falls down.

This was filmed by a friend near Chicago and Lake last night.

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

This is how ICE agents responded after watching a mother of three bleed out in her car after they shot her multiple times in the head.

Zelensky on Venezuela:

“About Venezuela? How should I respond to that? Well, what can I say? If… If it is possible to act with dictators like this, it means the United States knows what to do next. Thank you”

Omg I love it.

Where are we finding all this money to “run Venezuela” when health premiums are skyrocketing because we couldn’t afford to extend ACA subsidies one more minute at a significant fraction of the cost?

I'm starting to wonder how much "the male loneliness epidemic" is just straight and bisexual women identifying low-effort, mean, and incompetent men and choosing not to date, marry, and tolerate them anymore

As we move into Hate Yourself Publicly Season, I also wish for us a year in which we have the courage to value ourselves for who we are & not hate ourselves for who we're not, a year in which we listen not to those who line their pockets with our insecurities, but to voices of tenderness & respect.

We seem to be getting stupider when we could really use our wits. The antidote? Reading more. Also a good antidote against the evils of social media, from distraction to misinformation. And did I mention the pleasure of it? Don't miss out on the pleasure... #books

Hang on, a pause is by definition temporary. Permanent is the opposite of temporary. “Permanent pause” is an oxymoron, a contradiction. If you want to be president of the US, don’t you think you should learn English, @realDonaldTrump ?
