Trump is now suggesting nationalizing elections because he realizes he can’t cancel them, as states run their own individual elections. Is this the most dangerous thing he’s ever suggested?

A good thing happened today: Haitians in Springfield, Ohio and elsewhere are (for now) safe from the planned ethnic cleansing operation. This happened because people came together — organizers, reporters, and those who care — and made it happen. Let’s take the win and continue the work.

A multimillionaire thinks that paying down the national debt is so important that all the poors should get into the workforce earlier, work in it harder, and stay in it later to help pay it off.
It's the only possible way to do it!

Dr Oz: "If we could get the average American to start working a year earlier, right out of high school, or a year later -- not retire -- or work better during their lifetime because they're healthy, it would generate about $3 trillion to the US economy. That would more than remove the debt."

A cautionary tale Republicans refused to learn.
California tried this brand of cruelty. Prop 187 targeted immigrants and pretended it was “law and order.” Teachers and doctors were expected to turn families in. Kids were treated like evidence.
It backfired. Hard.

Oklahoma contributes 1% to the U.S. GDP and receives more in federal funds than it pays in federal taxes.
California alone is responsible for approximately 14.5% of the U.S GDP and pays the highest federal taxes (806 billion) and receives less.
Also, who the fuck listens to Lindsey Graham?!

I live in MA and have been wondering about this for awhile. Before Trump started cutting federal funding, we pay more in federal tax than we get back. Now he is trying to destroy our economy with funding cuts and iCE. Why are we paying for this?

Judge abruptly moved 3 pm hearing up to 12:30 after she was notified that some children “are in the process of being removed" today.
