Interior Secretary Doug Burgum views exploiters of fossil fuel, timber and mineral resources as his department's "customers." Burgum is part of Trump's efforts to sell out our public lands to the highest bidders. #Trump #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #Oligarchy #Project2025

The government is shut down, and Russ Vought, the OMB director, "has been dreaming about this moment since puberty,” according to Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah. Kind of creeps you out, does't it? #Trump #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #TrumpRecession #trumpslump #Oligarchy #Project2025

Feel like a hamster on a wheel? No wonder! And it'll only get worse. Trump's Big Ugly Bill ramps up inequality, gives the ultra-rich a massive tax break, and makes working people much worse off. #Trump #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #TrumpRecession #trumpslump #Oligarchy #Resist

A figurative hail storm is hammering American soybean farmers, and it's all the result of Trump's ridiculous tariff policy. #TrumpTariffs #TrumpRecession #soybeans #Trump #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #FarmEconomy #TradePolicy #Agriculture #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace

The more Trump and his Republican lickspittles desperately try to cover them up, the more the people are demanding that the Epstein files be released. #EpsteinCoverUp #EpsteinFiles #TrumpEpsteinCoverup #Trump #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

In a surprise development like a plot twist in a slasher movie — and about as believable — Mike Johnson has asserted that Trump was actually an FBI informant in the Epstein case. #EpsteinCoverUp #EpsteinFiles #TrumpEpsteinCoverup #Trump #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

In a hearing before the Senate Finance Committee today, RFK Jr. came off as wacky and inconsistent. His policies will cause needless suffering and death, and he needs to be fired. #RFKHearing #RFKJrResign #RFK #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace #Tump

#TBThursday A color version of a cartoon in June 2017 that had originally been done in B&W in 1993. That earlier version ran in the Sacramento Bee and the L.A. Times, and perhaps some other California papers.

Like many in Colorado, I've found Gov. Jared Polis' support of RFK Jr. baffling and cringe-inducing. I wondered what would happen if Bobby Kennedy's extraordinary diagnostic powers were applied to the Janus-faced governor. #RFKjr #copolitics

Did you relax over the long Labor Day weekend? Trump thinks hard-working Americans get too many holidays. He shouldn't talk. Trump slammed President Obama for his golfing frequency and, although he promised he would be different, he golfs much more than Obama.

Putting a quack such as RFK Jr. in charge of the CDC, America’s preeminent disease-fighting agency, will guarantee avoidable illness, suffering and loss of life in America. Trump must be held to account. #Trump #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #ImpeachTrumpNow #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace

#TBThursday This is from October 2017, after the Las Vegas Route 91 Harvest shooting that killed 58. With the NRA in disarray, a new organization, the NSSF, has stepped into the breach. Primarily funded by the gun industry, it espouses the same extremist positions.

#TBThursday This appeared in the Fresno Bee on Nov. 4, 1995. On Oct. 24, 1995, Newt Gingrich predicted that Medicare is “going to wither on the vine...." Americans should not forget that blackhearted Republicans have always sought to achieve Medicare's demise.

Trump's flunky, William Pulte, has accused the Fed's Lisa Cook, Sen. Adam Schiff and New York AG Letitia James of mortgage fraud. But Texas Republican AG Ken Paxton declared three Texas homes as primary residences, and Trump hasn't gone after him. #Trump #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

Trump's dictatorial power grabs are done brazenly, without even the faintest hint of shame or embarrassment. And he hypocritically condemns California for responding in kind to his Texas gerrymandering. #Trump #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #ImpeachTrumpNow #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace

Kristi Noem said Tuesday that the entire U.S.-Mexico border wall will be painted black, per Trump's order, to make it too hot for people to climb. Meanwhile, Trump is trying to whitewash U.S. history. #Trump #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #ImpeachTrumpNow #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace

I did this one back in July 2016. After Trump's obsequious performance in Alaska, rolling out the red carpet for the brutal dictator, it's clear that Trump is still Vladimir Putin's bootlicker. #Trump #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #ImpeachTrumpNow #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace

I have used Brady numbers in the past. Today, I got my numbers here: everytownresearch.org/report/gun-v....

Gun Violence in America

Gun violence in America is at a crisis point. Every day, 125 people are killed from guns and more than twice as many are shot and wounded.
