Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

Tweet from the VP:
Joy Reid has had such a good life in this country. It's been
overwhelmingly kind and gracious to her. She is far wealthier than most.
Yet she oozes with contempt.
My honest, non-trolling advice to Joy Reid is that you'd be a much
happier person if you showed a little gratitude

Trump's Budget Chief Is About To Go Rogue On Massive Spending Cuts

Russ Vought said to expect more massive spending cuts because Trump is "not cowing to a legislative branch’s understanding of its own authorities and powers."

Phang: Teachers are some of the least paid, most underappreciated people, and they work in such an intimate way in our lives. Your kids spend more time at school than they do at home, at least in waking hours. So why not encourage our teachers? Why create this oppressive environment?

Ex-farm worker here. We need to talk about this whole "But a living wage for farm workers would spike the cost of food!" thing. Not true AT ALL. Y'all don't understand how fast experienced farm workers are. The average tomato picker pulls 650lbs per hour. At $20/hr, that's $0.03/lb for labor.

New York City’s mayoral race is taking up all the oxygen but the most consequential mayor in the nation is Los Angeles mayor Karen Bass who is defending her city, the state, and the nation against federal fascism. More democrats should be speaking up for her- including NYC folk 1 of 2

Bonta: We brought a lawsuit today on behalf of the governor and the State of California, challenging as unlawful the president’s federalization of the National Guard.. The authority he relies on does not permit him to unilaterally call in the National Guard.

ICE is the January 6 insurrectionists all over again. Only instead of attacking law enforcement, they are pretending to *be* law enforcement. And instead of just terrorizing at the Capitol, they are doing it EVERYWHERE.

Donald Trump is against due process even though he has benefited from it more than anyone else. And Donald doesn't just get *due* process, he get *undue* process, thanks to a corrupt, partisan Supreme Court.

Every single senator who voted to confirm Hegseth is equally responsible and owns this. Your confirmation served as a stamp of approval and your judgment shouldn't be trusted. This goes for every failure of any official confirmed by the Senate.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.
