The high cost of diesel will drive inflation through 2028. Everything our consumer society buys is moved by diesel powered trucks and machinery.

When the people stand up together in opposition to government overreach, as in Minneapolis & now San Antonio, I feel hopeful.

As always, Segall is telling it as it is, giving us the bottom line. Don’t law schools teach you how to use more words to explain even simple points using “whereas” and “heretofore” conjunctions in run on sentences?

Agreed. 60 Minutes is worth more separated from CBS. Maybe Ellison can sell CBS for parts like those M&A tycoons.

Celeste Headlee has a great perspective on human rights. Her new book is worth the read.

It's has been obvious, since Project 2025 was released, the goal of Trump's overlords was to transform our country into an authoritarian state dominated by rich white men with subservient white women at home with children. Today, this goal, of a Christian nationalistic state, is boldly on display.

Republicans should be held accountable for ICE operations, but will they be? Will our citizens vote for reform over the status quo? I have my doubts

ICE has shot and killed 10 people since Trump came back into office. 2 more in the last week. In addition, 50 people have died in ICE detention. ICE has become a killing machine. We cannot let this feel normal. It isn't.

Go Angie Go The GOP is having to spend millions on ads for Senate races in what used to be deep red states E.g. Florida, Texas, Maine, and even South Carolina This gives me hope

Humor and satyr help me consume the reality of this regime. Is it just me, or do others appreciate the content and tone of Robert Reich's videos?

Images generated by AI models are extreme examples of plagiarism not expressions of human emotion through which art is created. Note too that God speaks to human minds, and not to AI models.

Of course he directed the OMB to find the funds for these "advertisements". What could possibly be wrong with blatant self-promotion and praise for our dear leader?

Trump Directed Use of Taxpayer Money for Ads Praising His Presidency

Give us your tired, your poor, your sick ... And we will kick them, LEGAL immigrants to the USA, off Medicaid and other humanitarian assistance. Thanks to Trump's 2025 tax cut for the rich and screw everyone else bill. How do GOP lawmakers sleep at night?

ICE OUT NOW Rapid hiring & deployment of 7,500 ICE recruits last year with little or NO vetting/background checks continues this fall with the addition of 5,000 more = 34,000 total. That's an expansion of 58% funded by our Republican majority Congress. Thanks for creating the GOP police state.

ICE Plans 5,000 New Hires to Help With Deportation Drive

SCOTUS "conservatives" (read racists) overturned a lower court ruling allowing the Regime to continue deporting people swept up by ICE to 3rd countries without due (or any) legal process. THIS is now the American way. Aren't you proud?

We, the USA, must stand with Ukraine and against Russia. This is not a difficult choice. Russia is an aggressor nation, and our historic enemy. Ukraine is a young democracy bravely standing between the EU and Russia. Tell your Senators and Representative.

Claims of "Not my President" or "I didn't vote for him" by Americans traveling abroad don't provide cover as the world suffers under Trump's policies. Remember, half of the voters in 2024 voted for that idiot.

This has been the case since the 2008 Great Recession. Nothing new. Simply a consequence of political choices favoring rich donors over the American people. Blame SCOTUS & Citizens United.
