His fucking policies have him kidnapping US citizens and immigrants without due process by people in masks. He tried to keep paying out legally required snap benefits from starving people. He's ignoring the Constitution and judges. Sure, let's talk about his policies
GOP Rep. Salazar won't criticize Trump calling a woman reporter "piggy" -- "President Trump is a very different type of politician. But I always say I look at his policies and not his personality. Nobody is perfect."

There is only one way to keep big, fat, rich insurance companies from ripping off Americans. National healthcare
Trump: "THE ONLY HEALTHCARE I'LL SUPPORT OR APPROVE IS SENDING MONEY DIRECTLY BACK TO THE PEOPLE W/ NOTHING GOING TO THE BIG, FAT, RICH INSURANCE COMPANIES, WHO HAVE RIPPED OFF AMERICA LONG ENOUGH. THE PEOPLE WILL BE ALLOWED TO NEGOTIATE & BUY THEIR OWN, MUCH BETTER, INSURANCE. POWER TO THE PEOPLE!"

Rep. Moolenaar on Trump selling F-35s to Saudi Arabia: "I believe the president is bringing different countries into the coalition that would be more aligned with Western values and with respect for national security. I trust his team."

His Senate hearings were the prime example of rich white privilege. Why is anyone shocked, it was on full display during the hearings.
Devastating piece on the human toll of Kavanaugh Stops.
Especially infuriating to know that rich white guys like Brett K can simply close their eyes to the human suffering their racist jurisprudence has unleashed.

For two months, the U.S. government has been racial profiling as masked federal agents hunted for immigrants throughout Chicago. They’ve repeatedly snatched up U.S. citizens while traumatizing communities. “I felt like a piece of trash.” Here is our story www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/15/l...

Alan Dershowitz is one of those claiming Epstein was not a pedophile because he pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. "That’s not a pedophile." See this important response from Julia Brown, the brave reporter who broke the news on this

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

Trump has never been held to account his entire life. His dad allowed him to do whatever, society let me do whatever, he never was held to account in business, even when he went Bankrupt, and Congress and the courts have let him get away with breaking laws. You think he cares about Congress here?

I'm betting the odds that Johnson has a few on the GOP side that will remove their support and the files won't be released. That or the DOJ will refuse and the House won't pursue further through the courts.

Anyone that is in a white collar job should be worried. GenAI is destroying white collar jobs. It's a powerful tool that can't be ignored, but will drive significant efficiencies that will eliminate a lot of jobs. Just look at the big tech firms on the front end, like AWS and MSFT.

Spoken like someone with their head in the sand. The Dems seriously need new leadership that understands what is a stake and the old way of doing business hasn't worked for almost two decades.

We need to tell our senators we need a new minority leader if this vote goes through - @warren.senate.gov @markey.senate.gov . If my MA Senators don't step up to call for @schumer.senate.gov to resign immediately, they should also be replaced.
