Since the end of the Cold War, democrats have created 50M jobs and republicans have created 1M.
The Republican propaganda that Trump “inherited” a bad economy from Biden and is making it better is the exact opposite of true. The numbers don’t lie and people know what they are experiencing.

Walz: "'I don't know, do you really think limiting them to less than 100 bullets is going to do anything?' Yes! Yes it is. Yes it is going to save lives ... it's time to start reporting that that is all bullshit. It does do something. It does make a difference."

NCAR is quite literally our global mothership.
Everyone who works in climate and weather has passed through its doors and benefited from its incredible resources.
Dismantling NCAR is like taking a sledgehammer to the keystone holding up our scientific understanding of the planet.
Unbelievable.

After the 2024 election, a lot of elected Dems talked about the need to build alternative independent media platforms. My response was that they already exist, but elected Dems don’t support them by going on as guests - only doing legacy media. 2025 has been significantly better.

ICE Accidentally Publishes A ‘Watch List’ Of Immigration Lawyers, Which Is Definitely A Normal Thing For The Government To Do
This is... disturbing.
Let’s not forget, this regime has not been subtle about its hostility toward lawyers in general and immigration lawyers in particular.

Denial that his policies aren't gravely hurting American households and potentially pushing the economy into a recession.
