So Sen Tillis on Morning Joe suggests there might be corruption to look into, disagrees with many of his cabinet choices, like P Hegseth & RFK, Jr yet still remains a supporter of DJT. Maddening. Excuse making to the highest degree, with false equivalences, everywhere, to how DEMs operated, before.

Something remarkable is happening: James Talarico is running an expansively pro-immigrant campaign in Texas, a state Trump won by 14 points, speaking in Biblical terms about our duty to "the stranger." And it's resonating. That's seismic. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2160...

In Texas, Something Seismic Is Happening—and It’s All Trump’s Fault

Thanks to the economy and ICE, Trump has lost Texas Latinos. And James Talarico is developing a humane pro-immigrant message that’s resonating—even in this ultra-Trumpy state.

Virtually every SCOTUS decision, most on the shadow docket, shows that SCOTUS is acting as an arm of the MAGA/GOP party. It is stupefying to see deportations to countries that are non-“home” for indv’s being deported, actually be allowed even temporarily, from the USA. SCOTUS must be expanded!

Trump calls Democrats communists while rolling out the red carpet for Xi and expanding government ownership of private companies. Diplomacy isn't communism, but the contradiction is rich. Perhaps Washington needs fewer ideological labels and more policy explanations. #ComradeTrump

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.

Ridiculous on multiple levels. All the subsidies do is reduce out of pocket costs. Premiums MUST still be paid, monthly, or yearly. The fact some fraction don’t use the insurance, or haven’t used it, is irrelevant. It’s there for accidents or serious illness. It’s hard to fathom GOP stupidity…

Polls now show 43-33% that REPS are the party of elites, not DEMs. This has ALWAYS been the case, as the 1% financed all the J Rogan’s that dumped on DEMs, while making the hopelessly corrupted 1% GOP, the party of the common man. Men may finally be waking up. Right wing populism is oxymoronic!

U.S. GOP & Legacy media are the main culprit for why we’ve had DJT, twice.
