Glens Falls, NY #NoKings

Seeing all the #nokings protest across the nation and world has me feeling more patriotic than almost anything in my 39 years. Love to see it. #americanpride

This is why white conservative Christians have zero credibility. In politics and in Christianity.

Korea Herald editorial:

"Three South Korean battery companies are constructing plants at 10 US locations. Their combined investments amount to $43 billion. If it remains difficult for employees to travel to the US ... investment plans will be frozen or put off."

SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in a college applicant's file is blatantly unconstitutional

ALSO SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in targeting whom to detain and deport is cool cool cool

Making them wear high-visibility vests over camo is such a good joke you couldn’t write it

Morgan Wallen Boycotts Grammys In Protest Of Desegregation https://theonion.com/morgan-wallen-boycotts-grammys-in-protest-of-desegregation/

As a Georgian, JD can fuck right on off.

RFK Jr. put out a document justifying pulling $500M from mRNA research. It was assembled by a dentist, not a virologist. The "science" he refers to was not systematic review of the research.

He cited work that CONTRADICTED his views.

More reason to oust him.

This is from 2018…🤦

Banning chemtrails is impossible, because they aren't real. Thank you for attending my TED Talk.

Trump says undocumented immigrants do farm work "naturally" because "they don't get a bad back."

Mississippi's Declaration of Secession similarly said slavery must be protected because "by an impervious law of nature, none but the black race can bear exposure to the tropical sun."

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

To recap the saga of the OBBB:

The House quickly passed an awful bill to satisfy Trump's deadline
The Senate reworked it and passed on the assumption the House would rework their rework
The House changed nothing after being bribed with Trump merchandise
Trump doesn't know what's in the bill

END

You’re at a protest and saw someone do something that you don’t approve of, that might get them in trouble with the cops? No you didn’t. Mind your business.

Re: the big No Kings protests this weekend, remember that the corporate media, politicians, etc are obviously champing at the bit to be able to force a “good protestors vs bad protestors” narrative to discredit the anti-ICE/anti-genocide movement.

Do not let them. Embrace a diversity of tactics.

I updated this old graph of mine. It shows that, if not for the Bush and Trump tax cuts, debt/GDP would be stable rather than rising forever.

I've updated the methodology to first assume an AMT patch at Clinton levels, so I'm only attributing to the Bush tax cuts their portion of the AMT patch.
