But as long as he stays racist and hates the people you do, you'll still support him, right?

Under court order, the government has released a nearly unredacted copy of the memorandum of understanding between the IRS and Homeland Security revealing how taxpayer data was shared for immigration enforcement.

Interesting how they're allowing white refugee immigrants into the US and deporting brown ones. And by interesting, I mean racist as fuck.

Elon Musk may or may not fulfill his promise to step back from DOGE. But his legacy is already clear: He is assembling a sprawling domestic surveillance system — the likes of which we have never seen in the United States. My latest for NYT Opinion (gift link): www.nytimes.com/2025/04/30/o...

John Thune the Senate Majority Leader has the nastiest staff in Rapid City. I’ve interacted with a few of them and one or two of them seemed kind. They took my concerns to pass along and helped me with my questions. The others were rude and demeaning. Argumentative and talked over me. John fix it!

We expected hundreds of thousands of people yesterday. Instead, millions of Americans flooded the streets to demand an end to Trump’s authoritarian power grab. Trump and Musk have spent their first 75 days in office trying to overwhelm us and make us feel powerless, but we’re not going anywhere.

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

The first and most important thing to know about last night's Exec order is that it's intended to break current law and allow people throughout the federal gov look at yr tax returns. Beyond that it's intended to compel states to turn over all their data to the fed govt.

many years ago I learned that characteristics such as honesty, humility, accountability, acceptance, kindness, openness, and compassion are virtues to make us a better person, and in my own inadequate way, I strive to make these part of how I live.

sometimes we encounter an individual who exhibits few or any of these attributes and I find such a person to be toxic and I don’t want them in my life, private or public. sadly, millions of my fellow citizens don’t seem to share my views and openly support a person such as this.

Donald Trump’s first term was filled with chaos, lies, bigotry, corruption, and outright criminality. it seems his only goal was to assuage his pathetic ego, and he appears determined to make sure there are no guardrails this term to hold him back.
