Gavin Newsom launched a website to combat the wildfire disinformation spreading about Los Angeles, because people can’t be bothered to do a simple Google search before sharing nonsense. And because people suck!

Trump's first round of tax cuts for the rich added nearly $2 trillion to the debt.

Extending them would add another $5 trillion.

If we "can't afford" universal health care or paid family leave or basic social safety nets, Trump's handouts to the rich are why.
Republicans gear up for the coming battle over $5 trillion tax cut's costs
Republicans are united on extending the 2017 tax cuts, but at odds on how to offset the cost.

This spells disaster for many. But they are right, THIS SCOTUS likely will allow it. Elections matter.
This is how Elon and Vivek hope to gut the federal budget. They want SCOTUS to restore the “impoundment” power of the presidency. Here is their OpEd in the WSJ in which they argue the Impoundment Control Act is unconstitutional. A high stakes, dangerous strategy they seem intent on seeing through.

Folks, these aren’t Cabinet picks, they’re Trojan Horses. He’s assembling a demolition crew to tear down defenses, gut NATO, cripple intelligence, expose secrets, spies, and leave America weak & exposed.

If majority can't see this, they’ve already bought the con.

Love her. ❤️
Rep. Jasmine Crockett: "There has been no oppression for the white man in this country ... it is white men on this side of the aisle telling us, people of color on this side of the aisle, that y'all are the ones being oppressed."

She speaks the truth.
Lee: When Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was up for confirmation or when VP Harris was added to the ticket, they called them DEI hires. They want you to believe that Harvard graduate with over 20 years of experience is not qualified but Fox personality is qualified to run the DOD

I am finding it quite unbearable to watch Sarah McBride bear the grotesque attack of her colleagues with so much grace. I know it is what we have been taught to expect of trailblazers, but I am increasingly struggling to accept this.

I don't think we get a say anymore. It's an illusion. A farce. Especially since Citizens United. Billionaires and their corrupt system pick the nominees, and tip the scales to pick the winner. Their monopoly control over money, media, algorithms, etc. disenfranchises us before Election Day arrives.

Watching Morning Joe and all is fine folks. They are talking about all the things we care about and where they disagree with T. Also, midterms and how they will fire back on Republicans because he did not win by a big margin.

Does anyone still watch MSM? I follow several commentators and some hosts here, but mainly only watch Moring Joe and Mika, and of course Rachel Maddow.

Just to be clear: the incoming Trump administration is going to war against their own Republican senate majority and the constitution's advice and consent provision so they can make a man investigated for ***sex trafficking a minor*** into the most powerful law enforcement officer in the country.

New here and already seeing MAGA hateful posts. I can block them, but how is misinformation or rather flat out lies handled here on blue sky?
