This is the sort of thing that reminds young bigoted lying sociopaths that there are exciting and lucrative career opportunities open to them. In a well run society, such people would find their prospects limited to running pigeon drop scams until the bunco squad catches up, but this is our lives.

How is it not news when the president nods off in public meetings and press conferences dozens of times? If you follow independent media, you see it and know about it. But why hasn’t CBS, NBC or ABC showed a montage of it on their evening news? They simply refuse to ever show it.

The Constitution says Congress, not the president, decides how your tax money is spent. Trump canceled $810 million Congress approved by running out the clock and the independent spending watchdog calls it illegal. Trump treats your money like it’s his. #PayToPlayPresident

25th Amendment? We can’t even get network news to air it or even mention it. It’s a massive national media coverup to hide the fact the we have an addled president.

37 more wounded troops. Added quietly. No explanation. Here's the No B.S. truth: when anyone (a vendor, a CEO, a government) revises the numbers without telling you why, the silence IS the message. 861 wounded. Their families deserve the full story.

The Hunting Ground is the documentary everyone should be watching to learn more about the scope of campus assault. Made in 2015 but as relevant as ever. Women's safety is sacrificed by college institutions for financial gain. Our administration is doing the same thing by protecting predators.

The Guardian: survivors allege girls as young as 15 were exploited in a group Trump's FCC chair belonged to for years. Carr denies knowing. Ask GOP senators if that's good enough for a man regulating your family's airwaves. Silence keeps him there. #TrumpsCorruptCongress #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

I found watching Trump’s UN speech today deeply depressing. It is a matter of national shame and humiliation that he is our president. Every country in the world, friend and foe alike, sees we are governed by a vainglorious fool.

With the midterm elections shaping up to be a massive reckoning for the Republican Party, it's worth remembering that they had a fairly easy offramp from Trumpism in the immediate aftermath of the January 6th riot but they completely chickened out.

Skipping the 2026 vote because of cynicism is a luxury belief. It is the view of those who do not face ICE vans, dying lakes, or surveillance cameras tracking family to clinics. Your apathy is a comfort they cannot afford. #GetReadyToVote #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory
