Republicans figured out decades ago that education was bad for their voter lists. But only now are they daring to destroy it. Vouchers are actually the most clever approach, as they also achieve a major goal of the wealthy -- spending other people's money.

Trump, ignoring the Constitution as always, threatened to take away Rosie O'Donnell's US citizenship. Her response is such a pleasure to read.
Rosie O’Donnell responding to Trump on Instagram:

“hey donald—you’re rattled again? 18 years later and I still live rent-free in that collapsing brain of yours. you call me a threat to humanity—but I’m everything you fear: a loud woman, a queer woman, a mother who tells the truth, an american who got out of the country b4 you set it ablaze. you build walls—I build a life for my autistic kid in a country where decency still exists. you crave loyalty—I teach my children to question power. you sell fear on golf courses. I make art about surviving trauma. You lie, you steal, you degrade—I nurture, I create, I persist. 

you are everything that is wrong with america—

and I’m everything you hate about what’s still right with it

you want to revoke my citizenship?

go ahead and try, king joffrey with a tangerine spray tan

i’m not yours to silence

i never was”

The U.S. doesn’t have a healthcare system. It has an exploit-sick-people-for-profit system. The only reason we don’t have universal healthcare in the U.S. is because our politicians are allowed to accept bribes in the form of donations from insurance and pharma lobbyists.

Some of you may be getting replies or follow backs now from things you wrote months ago. I lost my phone on Feb 19 on the way to a long trip overseas. Bluesky was unable to recover this account, though they wrote months ago that they would try. Now I'm back home (in Brazil) and finally back on!

If you were really looking for fraud at SSA, you wouldn’t need write access. You WOULD need write access if you wanted to CREATE fraud where none existed as a pretext to shut down Social Security.

Not a good look for journalists to say that the police should “go after” another journalist for reporting the news. ‘Fox & Friends’ cohosts are incredibly shortsighted if they believe that the government will always limit itself to prosecuting journalists on the left.

Recent comments by ‘Fox & Friends’ co-hosts that police should ‘go after’ a journalist for reporting the news are as shortsighted as they are wrong

Jess Piper says that what seems to be a deliberate attempt to crash what was a booming U.S. economy is a feature of the administration’s plan, not a bug. It creates “curated failure” that enables oligarchs to buy up the assets of the state and of desperate individuals for “rock-bottom prices.”

The Atlanta Fed, which had earlier predicted nearly 3% growth in the economy this quarter, now, after Trump's tariff announcement, predicts nearly a 3% contraction.

The Social Security Administration will consolidate its 10 regional offices to 4 and cut 7,000 jobs from an agency that is already at a 50-year staffing low. When it can no longer function, Republicans will say it needs the private sector to take it over. This is “a prelude to privatization.”
