Trump is bailing out Argentina with $40 billion while leaving American farmers twisting in the wind. At this point, it’s obvious he doesn’t want them to succeed. I’m calling it now: this is going to turn into a land grab for pennies on the dollar.

It’s weird how the “young” Republicans are actually full-grown men and JD Vance treats them as children who shouldn’t face consequences for their racism, misogyny, or xenophobia. But pregnant 12-year-old little girls are treated as adults and must literally bear the consequences of rape and incest.

I dont think enough Americans realize Republicans are gearing up for permanent rule. I dont know if we will get to midterm elections. Even if we do, with gerrymandering, the gutting of the Voting Rights Act, and violent intimidation, they'll rig the elections for minority rule. All hands on deck.

Politicians now measure their words against the possibility of death threats. That’s how bad it’s gotten.

Why are teachers so in need of supplies for their classrooms? I taught for 39 years and always was somewhat short of supplies, but not on the essentials (except Kleenex, pencils, and masking tape). What %$ of your needs are not being met?

A reminder: FEMA is no longer going door-to-door to assist disaster victims [From our Climate Desk partner @wired.com]

FEMA will no longer go door-to-door to assist disaster victims
The move, says one agency worker, will “severely hamper our ability to reach vulnerable people.”

Ten years after the Paris Agreement, nations are still falling short of their commitments to reduce emissions and mitigate climate change. More than that, they haven’t shown enough follow-through on the goals they set. Instead, it’s been cities and local governments that have taken the lead.
