Tell me again, who is it that hates America?
Guess I won't be going to Home Depot anytime soon. ICE can't enter a private business without a warrant so if they are in a Home Depot it's because they are being allowed in. #BoycottHomeDepot
For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

Right-wing essayist Helen Andrews is blaming *women* for the destruction of enterprising business spirit and the rule of law, while businessmen are groveling to a male president who is destroying the rule of law. www.thebulwark.com/p/right-gran...
The Right’s New Grand Unified Theory: Blame Women for Everything
Helen Andrews’s latest screed is short on rational facts, long on mushy feelings of misogyny.

The same people who lost their minds over renovations to Cracker Barrel are totally fine with the White House getting bulldozed
He hasn't put America first yet, why should he start now?
“Put America first”: GOP senators are fuming at Trump’s idea to import Argentinian beef to lower US prices.

Lawmakers face blowback from angry ranchers who were already alarmed by Trump’s $40 billion bailout of Argentina — even as the country undercuts US soybean farmers over trade with China.

Susan Collins might as well start packing up her office now. She should probably start packing up her house as well as I suspect most people in Maine aren't going to be very happy with her and she won't be welcomed most places she goes.
Lot going on but Susan Collins, who claims to support abortion rights, voted to install an anti-abortion law professor as an appeals court judge. That nominee, Jennifer Mascott, refused to say whether Trump could order the military to assassinate his political opponents. @jezebeldotcom.bsky.social

Q: "Are you asking the DOJ to pay you compensation for the federal investigations that happened to you? How much are you asking for?"

Trump: "I guess they probably owe me a lot of money for that. Probably, ya, that's true. That's very interesting."
I'd like to revisit this - you know, when swastikas and nazi slogans keep showing up in your party, you might have a problem.

Also, the excuse that they were tricked is lame - as mentioned, other GOP offices received these flags but they TOSSED THEM OUT, not hang them up in their office.
GOP representative blames swastika flag in his office on a ‘ruse’
Flags altered in a similar way have surfaced around the Capitol.

Since canceling FB/IG might be really hard for a lot of people maybe we could pick a week and all put our accounts on hold. That would not only deprive Zuckerberg et all of ad revenue but it would send a message.
But really, we should be giving up Instagram and Facebook too.
I cancelled them over Joe Rogan and never looked back. I also gave up Amazon in 2023. Join me - there is life without Amazon!
