Trump and Vance yell and trash talk Zelensky while sucking Putin’s dick. That’s where we are at. A century of global leadership vaporized in a month.

Medicaid is not for sale.
NASA is not for sale.
The Post Office is not for sale.
America is not for sale.

We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Some of Capitol Police officers that protected Trump yesterday were among those injured by the insurrectionists he just freed. This is how Trump pays back their bravery.

If you think Elon did nothing offensive, perhaps try it yourself at work or at school or in Germany or Austria and see how that goes for you.

I am not telling people not to pay taxes, obviously. But I am going to acknowledge here that as our government becomes more and more lawless, more and more people will ask the question below.

Billionaires are now stripping our government there. At what point will middle-class voters just...opt out?
AGAIN WHY SHOULD I PAY TAXES WHEN THE LAW DOESNT APPLY ANYMORE.
CNN reports that the January 6 criminals have been told they are invited to attend inaugural balls tonight. They are going to be released from the D.C. jail momentarily.

All are insurrectionists.

We are not a democracy anymore, folks. We do not have rule of law.

I knew all this was going to happen. But nothing can really prepare you for what it feels like when the moment actually arrives. This is why we need each other and our communities. I plan to turn to them a lot in the coming years.

Trump when asked about his proposed illegal invasion of Mexico:

“If the cartels are now gonna be seen as foreign terror organizations, would you think about ordering US special forces into Mexico to take them out?”

TRUMP: “Could happen”

Nope. Wrong. Newsom is doing what all Democrats need to do in this new era where right-wing oligarchs, politicians and influencers hit you with a steady barrage of lies. This is part of the job now for elected officials. You know it works because of how much they whine about it.

Pam Bondi is in that seat because she loves kissing orange ass more than she loves the law.

With Inauguration Day approaching, many may wonder what we should expect Trump's "day one" to look like policy-wise. Todd Beeton breaks it down tomorrow in The Big Picture. And yesterday, Amelia Mavis Christnot reviewed Joe Biden's presidency through the lens of NDN Country.
This Week In The Big Picture
Donald Trump is set to be sworn in at noon on Monday, and with that, his second term’s “Day One” will officially begin.

Pete Hegseth would make America weaker. I've never seen a more unqualified and unfit nominee for anything ever. What a disgusting abomination. His nomination and the Republicans bowing to Trump. All of it. Everything.
