LOVE 17th Ave and Steubens for having ports-potties….sad that @livewell couldn’t welcome everyone and not just who they deemed worthy of using their potties.

Phang: If you were scrolling on social media and saw a dog locked up in the middle of the Everglades—in the sun, in the heat, in the humidity—the outrage would be wild, wouldn’t it?

But then—we’re okay with human beings being treated like that?

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:

A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

Imagine the Republican freakout if Biden sent secret police to red states to grab anyone with a gun just to check and make sure they’re allowed to have them.

Where are the “don’t tread on me” folks in all this?

Are you sure about that, Mr. President?

Farmers are witnessing firsthand that between 25% and 45% of workers have stopped showing up since your raids began this month.

Don’t think your logic is adding up.

There is no such thing as an overreaction with what has now happened. This is the line in the sand.

Every red hat who supports killing Americans is a traitor.

So the National Guard & the Marines haven’t even been used in Los Angeles yet, huh? So there really was no need for the National Guard & the Marines in Los Angeles, was there? So all just another big, ugly, cruel, divisive, violence-inciting Trump lie, huh?

Shocker.

The benefit of cutting social programs was never about saving money. The “benefit” of cutting social programs is keeping “those” people in their place. Its about making sure lower status groups can’t move up the social hierarchy ladder and challenge the “real americans.”
The poverty team at Columbia ran the numbers on *just* the Thrifty rollback and *just* on families with kids and found that for every $1 in cuts ("savings"), we all lose $14-20. My goodness.

We’re not history professors but it just kinda seems like the founders were pretty intentional about setting up our system so our fate wouldn’t be decided entirely by the moods of billionaires with the fragilest egos imaginable. 🇺🇸
