Welcome. Guidelines:

Be respectful. Disagree, but no personal attacks.

Correct with kindness: ok to correct comments, but cite source (a link is best!)

Zero tolerance for taking over sovereign nations!

Thanks for being here and for helping us keep this a space for allies, not enemies.

Fat Satan got his COVID booster shot yesterday. If he doesn’t listen to his Trumpshit-crazy HHS Secretary, why should we?

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

MAGA, make no mistake- YOUR PARTY IS LITERALLY NOT WORKING. They’re getting paid, too. You created this mess. No money for fed employees, healthcare, farm crisis. Lots of money for the Trumps & for Argentina- but no money for YOU! Don’t believe Johnson’s lies.

Again:
1) If the RIFs are illegal, "We are going to divert appropriated funds to pay Da Troops" is double mega illegal, and that actually matters.
2) The military's payment system is so baroque I'm not sure it's even possible to do this
3) They just keep blowing up their own leverage.

In addition to destroying ICE and DHS, we should probably start thinking about a reparations framework. If they keep records on which officers conduct arrests, we could make individual officers liable to pay damages to their victims.

Stephen Miller is a weak lying douchebag Nat-C authoritarian who despises the US Constitution, and his dangerous statement that a POTUS has “plenary authority” tells any constitutionally-bound American he is just that. Our Constitution clearly defines the powers of the President.

Suddenly the military is getting paid on the 15th?

It would’ve been easier to call Johnson, but he didn’t.

This validates his fear of the Epstein files.

When robbing the military piggy bank, is a better option than simply having the house pass a standalone bill to fund the military - it’s bad.

I think it should be clear at this point that like the US federal government has collapsed.

There are no branches. There are no rules.

There is just one man and his truth social posts.

The mass firings at the CDC tonight drive home the fact that no one is coming to save us

But we can save each other

Wear a mask. Ideally a respirator like an N95

Even if you’re vaccinated. Even if you’re “not worried”

It protects you but it also protects everyone else

Bonus? Less colds & flus!

Once a foreign military has access observational data is automatic. This is a significant national security risk. We are handing over the keys to our defense.

A rare admission from the administration that policy choices have knock-off effects.

In this case: immigration crackdowns raise your grocery bill.
