That "crowd" IS the public.

Maybe traditional sources of information are becoming obsolete. Podcasts are an easier way to stay informed, like MeidasTouch and Bulwark

I stopped watching CBS months ago when a newsperson said Trump is very intelligent and has his finger on the pulse of America. They were already compromised before Weiss.

“If he doesn’t like war, he’s not doing a good job of showing it right now.”

@billmaher clowned on his own show for trying to frame Trump as a peace President as he bombs boats with no evidence, brings us to the brink with Venezuela, etc

So true. The middle aisles of grocery stores are the cheapest, and loaded with sugars and salts. It is why the poor among us are usually overweight

Everything.....absolutely everything they say is not true. It is just so unbelievable and sad. Can the lack of trust ever be restored? I dunno

This explains how Trump got elected. Ban TikTok!

If anyone is shrugging, it is at the clown we have as a president. His words are meaningless.

Talk about indoctrination! Everything Trump says is projection, honestly and truly.

Funny.....in my experience, immigrants are the workers and MAGA are the ones who won't work. Everyone I know without a job is MAGA.

After all the crimes this administration and Trump have coomitted, how can anyone point the finger at another politican ever again? We have experienced scandals the likes of which have never been seen before. And they have been shrugged off by Congress and SCOTUS.

When governments cannot get their act together, and run economic policies that are unsustainable, bouts of inflation just happen. By the time markets wake up, it is too late

The rich world faces a painful bout of inflation

Governments are living far beyond their means. Sadly, inflation is the most likely escape

This quote from Sydney Reid, who was acquitted in a humiliating case for Jeanine Pirro today, is <>.

She's right tho--criminal cases have the possibility to backfire in really significant way.

www.huffpost.com/entry/sidney...

Reid, in a statement through her attorneys, said the verdict shows “that this administration and their peons are not able to invoke fear in all citizens.”

“I feel sorry for the prosecutors really, who must be burdened by Trump’s irrational and unfounded hatred for his fellow man,” she said. “Knowing that I can stand in front of 12 of my fellow citizens and be found not guilty for standing up for basic human rights makes me feel like, despite the scary times we live in, we have hope for the future.”

This entire article is, unsurprisingly, kicked off by Brett Kavanaugh and includes this: "A spokesperson for Kavanaugh did not return an emailed request for comment."

BREAKING from PP

We found immigration agents have held more than 170 *citizens*

The govt doesn't track citizens held. So we did. We tallied:

Nearly 20 kids, two w/ cancer

More than 20 citizens held for day or more, incommunicado

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.

The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

Sydney Reid acquitted.

This was a case where someone filming was assaulted, and then arrested and charged with felony assault.

The grand jury no billed that, so they took her to trial on a misdemeanor charge. There were a bunch of discovery problems.

And now this.

Kudos to the FPDS!

A verdict form for Sydney Lori Reid. She was found Not Guilty.

My favorite phraseology is that a "No Kings" protest is a "Hate America" protest. LOL. Our country was founded on protest!
