Why can't Republicans find candidates that are not scum of the earth? This seems on brand to me.

Rape culture is alive and well in our institutions of higher education and in our society in general. It makes for a pitiful assessment of our nation, which needs to do way better.

Of course he doesn't intend to reimburse taxpayers. Once we get real auditors in to determine how much has been misappropriated or spent illegally, Trump should have billions to reimburse the US Treasury.

I see we're still killing possibly innocent people on the high seas, which is an international war crime. No wonder Trump wants to neuter the ICC! A reckoning is coming and it won't be pretty.

These statistics are shameful for one of the richest countries on earth. Instead of rating political parties by how much money rich people throw away on them, we should have a national scorecard that rates them on eliminating hunger, poverty, medical care costs, homelessness, etc.

So many questions. Have we replenished the anti-missile defensive systems that defend our bases that we are running low on? Have we restocked the ships that are eating corn dogs? Do we have competent people making sure everyone over there are supported? Or are we only worried about testosterone?

ICE arrested the mom of a 9-year-old at a school bus stop in Austin, leaving him alone and crying. The video has profanity and is heartbreaking to watch, but it shows the fear/pain of what happened. This is evil. This is wrong. And it has to stop.

It's outrageous that this indiscriminate killing has gone on so long. All of these victims deserved, but did not receive, due process. No one can say with certainty which were guilty and which were innocent. It's a horrific version of shoot first and ask questions later.

Imagine a judge asking a toddler with NO lawyer if they agree to voluntary departure or want a removal order. That's what the Trump admin is forcing kids—who are as young as 2 years old—to do in immigration courts. That's not due process. That's insane. These are KIDS.

If we were serious about ending the Iran war, shouldn't we be holding direct talks instead of avoiding responsibility by involving other countries, only to reject their negotiations? We will never end it this way.

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020 — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.
