Ready to fight for our democracy. So sad that we have to even do so.

Our health care system in America is disgusting. A clear indication that our government doesn't give a fuck if we live or die.

Katie Phang on a Russian oligarch bankrolling Don Jr.’s wedding: “They’re so dumb, we see it happening in real time. But because there’s no consequence or accountability, they just do it in the wide open.”

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

Fourteen years ago, HBO's 'The Newsroom' laid out the truth about voter ID in this segment. It’s striking how little the arguments — or the tactics — have changed. Still a solution in search of a problem. History doesn’t repeat itself — it gets rerun.

This morning in Danbury, ICE was arresting parents at school bus stops. But it’s more sinister. ICE waited until the kids were on the bus so when they are dropped off at the end of the day, they are alone, scared to death they can’t find their parents. I’m heading to Danbury.

Hanging? We need to call this what it is: LYNCHING. Ten Black Americans in less than two years. Every one of these deaths deserves answers, transparency, and scrutiny. No one should look at these images and expect Black Americans to shrug this off, especially in light of our history.

The danger is that the Republican Congress and SCOTUS will let Trump do treason of all kinds, because it is the only way they can keep power. The military and law enforcement have been complicit. Nothing stopping Trump from killing democracy.

The 500 richest people on the globe added $336 billion to their fortunes on Monday, bringing their collective net worth to a record $13.3 trillion. Read that back. Our problem isn’t an issue of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding wealth inequality.

They tell us that ICE is about immigration. The southern border. Bullshit. It is about weaponizing our government against our constitution. Normalizing the use of paramilitary force on our streets in ways that we stop questioning it. Abolish ICE.

Mockler: He took office and spiked 2.9% inflation, up to 3.8%. Gas prices are up to $4.50 in most states, and he did this all while stripping insurance away from 10 million Americans. I think the most impressive part is the deficit hasn't decreased at all.

It could not be more obvious that the president does not care about US service members and in fact regards their deaths as mere political inconveniences. He has more sympathy for Putin than Americans who died because he decided to wage illegal war. Just listen to him.
