When the regime leader deploys unwanted and unneeded federal troops to a city or state because the elected leaders are in a different political party, then that's evidence of a regime that is an opponent of freedom and democracy.

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...
There is one place, however, where Musk, with the help of his minions, achieved his goals. He did indeed shred U.S.A.I.D. Though a rump operation is now operating inside the State Department, the administration says that it has terminated more than 80 percent of U.S.A.I.D. grants. Brooke Nichols, an associate professor of global health at Boston University, has estimated that these cuts have already resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, and will most likely lead to significantly more by the end of the year. That is what Musk’s foray into politics accomplished.

The Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 created the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. I reread it today; nothing in the law allows a president to defund PBS and NPR. In fact, Congress specifically sought to insulate public media from political pressure.

@governor.ny.gov Campaign like Carney. You’ve got many blu dots in Erie & Niagara Counties. In Lewiston I watch Canadian news. Poilievre had a lock. Trudeau made a brilliant move for the liberal party by putting Carney in charge against the tariff policy. Stand with Pritzker!

Name the game. "Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief." - Chris Murphy (read his summary below)

In today’s hellscape news, the Trump administration is planning to cut 80,000 jobs from the Department of Veterans Affairs. The VA is already short-staffed and wait times are abhorrent. Veterans will die because of this move.

If you take Canadian oil out of the equation, Canada actually has a trade deficit, and the U.S. has a surplus — of $58 billion. We supply cheap oil to the USA to ensure North American energy independence, so North America can never again be held hostage by OPEC countries. #Canada #Trump #cdnpoli
Canada supplies over 4 million barrels of deeply discounted oil per day to the USA.
Reality: The USA does not "subsidize" Canada, Canada subsidizes the USA.
