📌"I have typed before, and will until my last breath, that Black voters are America’s TRUE patriots, and the only voting bloc that overwhelmingly and consistently gets it right.
How incredibly sad it must be to see white people elect bile who see white supremacy as a virtue, instead of a plague."
WHITE COWER
Like it or not, Donald Trump's vulgar presidency is very much a black-and-white issue ...

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

2nd time they did this.
Still appalled at how paltry and terrible the NYT coverage of the protests were and how nobody there feels any responsibility to address the criticism. This was not something that caught them off guard. This was many levels of decisions.

Here’s an idea. The west has held about $300 billion in Russian assets. They should release 2 billion a day to Ukraine until Russia stops the war, or they disperse it all.

Then Russia will have to accept the war has an additional real cost per day

Good for you, @matthewjdowd.bsky.social

Don’t let the cowards steal the truth of your words. Embrace it as a necessary act of resistance.

I spoke with the NYT Magazine a while ago but have now heard that an editor said they can't quote me because I'm "too liberal" to be a trusted source.

You know what's always the first example conservatives use to claim I'm "too liberal"?

One of Hitler’s first actions was to declare the socialist party domestic terrorists and outlaw them. He then proceeded to “dismantle“ his opposition. This is what happens when Reagan cuts funding for education and kills civics and history classes in public schools.

My 99-year-old WWII veteran father, George Mullins, fought fascism as a young man. This is the heartbreak he feels as he sees what is happening to our country.

I don't think that my parents, because they're on Social Security, are parasites. I don't think my neighbor who is on Medicaid is a parasite.

I need Republicans to get right with themselves.

Dems/media condemning Joe for pardoning Hunter right after a psycho who has spent 4 years ranting that he was going to go after him is the most toxic kind of phony virtue signaling imaginable. Don’t forget to pat yourselves on the back from your perches on the moral high ground.
