Leading Democrats are weirdly silent about Donald Trump taking over Washington DC with the military and the National Guard. They should be filling the airwaves with outraged statements, but they just… aren’t.

James Dobson really did the most to ruin adolescence for American kids growing up in the unbelievable times of the 1980's and 90's. Fuck that guy.

When did we have actual representative democracy? As white men, sure if you squinted we had the idea of it. Ask women and minorities and immigrants how representative our democracy was

The US economy came to life due to slavery. It was turbocharged because our loved ones were sent to die in horrific wars. There were millionaires and now billionaires who harnessed an engine powered by our blood and suffering. This for the next time they tell you 65 is too early to retire.

Saw the cover for We Sold Our Souls For Rock n Roll at camp with my Boy Scout troupe. I had heard of Black Sabbath. But, as an evangelical kid I was told rock bands were trying to disguise these messages in order to deceive me. There it was in black and white (and red).🤘

Trump and his admin wanted this bill passed before July 4 so that tomorrow they can watch millions of their dumbest supporters unwittingly celebrate all that’s just been taken from them. It was just too good to pass up.

The Republican megabill contains a punishing tax on renewable energy, jacking up electricity prices for all. Democrats must sway their Republican friends by explaining that it will cost more money to charge their phone to go online and harass trans athletes.

It's a truly jarring split screen that Kristi Noem's goons attacking Sen Padilla happened at almost the exact same time as 16 Dem senators crossed lines to vote with the GOP to invoke cloture on the crypto bill, forfeiting any leverage. Dems need to act like an opposition.

In one day, ICE arrested 680 people in Mississippi chicken plants. Zip tied them, threw them on buses. Many were US citizens, or here legally. THAT WAS 6 YEARS AGO. It happens when the plant owners want it. They're never punished for their hiring practices. www.jacksonfreepress.com/news/2019/au...

Why is ICE arresting employees but not employers? DOJ policy is to charge the most culpable people. The employers would seem to qualify.
