Both my Democrat U.S. Senators voted to confirm Doug Collins as the new Secretary of Veterans Affairs. While the no-clearance Elon Musk team gained access to VA records, Collins didn't release any statement, so now I'll contact my Senators to ask about their vote. Someone needs to give me an answer.

This is from the Mescalero Apache Tribe in New Mexico after an incident where an ICE officer demanded proof of U.S. citizenship from a tribal member. To be clear, ICE, Border Patrol, law enforcement, or the military cannot require you to prove you are a U.S. citizen within the boundaries of the U.S.

Get ready. Trump is going to fire most of the VA workforce, 70% of which are Veterans, then to "fix" the problems he created, he's going to privatize the VA and send our veterans to expensive, shitty corporate health mills after he slashes health benefits so he and his buddies can get richer.

About 44% of Trump’s election was funded by just 10 megadonors, almost exactly 15 years after the U.S. Supreme Court issued its landmark 'Citizens United' ruling, which opened the floodgates for corporations and billionaires to pour unlimited money into elections.

MAGA delights—no, gets off—by inflicting pain and suffering on anyone who is not in their deathkult. Every act Trump has taken harms someone deeply, and that’s the point. I am not a psychologist but it looks like sociopathy to me. The cruelty is the point. MAGA is the American reich. We are fucked.

This is an amazing quote, from a Jan 6 prisoner who is refusing Trump’s pardon. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
*_
Pam Hemphill said she planned to refuse Trump's pardon.
(PHOTO: KYLE GREEN FOR WSJ)
Pam Hemphill, of Idaho, who served 60 days in prison after pleading guilty to misdemeanor charges, said she planned to refuse the presidential pardon."It'd be an insult to the Capitol Police and the rule of law, and to our nation," she said. "I pleaded guilty because I was guilty. I don't want to be a part of contributing to them trying to rewrite history-that January 6 was not an insurrection. It was, it was a riot. And I think taking a pardon is like a message that what happened that day was OK."
