I just read a beautiful line in this article "Trumps emotional support lies." His lies are like the emotional support cockatoo someone is walking thru the airport with. Nice writing. www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

The GOP’s finger-pointing has begun

It is artificial! AI sucks up the real work by real creative people and farts it back in an artificial way.

I will NEVER understand why Republicans think the GOP is better for the economy. In my entire lifetime (and I'm 70+ years old), they have NEVER been better for the economy. And here we are again.

Republicans' fear of fake socialism in the United States is bringing about real fascism in the United States. Mainly because they are too ignorant to know the difference.

Video of an ICE agent pulling a gun on a wife and mother, who is a US citizen born and raised in the area, near Bailey's Crossroads in Northern Virginia yesterday. Chillingly, they claimed she “almost ran them over” until she told them she had video proving that was a lie.

Nixon would be considered a social democrat if he was running now. Workers rights, health care as a right-not privilege, education science based, seperation of religion and state= Nixon was for all this.
