Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

Today it was confirmed that the president told the world's most infamous pedophile and child sex trafficker: "We have certain things in common."
For any other president, it would be the biggest scandal of their lives, possibly career-ending.
For Trump, it's just Monday.

Our friend, Senator Alex Padilla exercising his duty to this country while the Trump administration forced him to the ground, and put him in handcuffs.

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.
