Thursday's Thought - The NYTimes has an article about the Felon stripping funding for New York's Hudson Tunnel. First of all this money had previously been appropriated and the work is in progress. This is Illegal. He tried the same with a wind project where I live in CT. The court overturned it

He's not opening the government because he doesn't want those secret files revealed. It's not complicated.

Looks like things are NOT going well for US Attorney Jeanine Pirro in the trial of Sydney Lori Reid for allegedly assaulting federal officers while interfering with a ICE custody transfer at the DC jail. Recall: Grand juries declined to indict Reid 3x so Pirro's office charged a misdemeanor instead.

And the cruelty will be unimaginably worse if we don’t eject these lawless tyrants.
Stand up, now. While we still can.

On top of detaining U.S. citizens, ICE is now fining legal residents for not carrying their papers.

It was never about going after the “worst of the worst.” It was always about cruelty.

We anti-fascists don’t do things for the love of money but for the sake of national honor, for our legacy, personal dignity, and for our fellow Americans.

I am planning on going to No Kings gathering this weekend in central Texas. And since I was terminated by MSNBC a few weeks ago, can someone let me know where to pick up paycheck that GOP keeps talking about. I have asked many folks going to No Kings, and none are getting paid.

Trump is bailing out Argentina with $40 billion while leaving American farmers twisting in the wind. At this point, it’s obvious he doesn’t want them to succeed.

I’m calling it now: this is going to turn into a land grab for pennies on the dollar.

Today, I convened a group of former military generals and veterans to hear perspectives on deploying troops in American cities.

Their commitment is to our nation. That’s why they’re speaking out against what the President's doing as uncalled-for, unprecedented, and un-American.

I am late doing my birthday reflection because the fascism & my powerlifting, tbh. But I have one after %#!? years on earth:

Some people make you feel good. Some people don’t. If you work hard to spend time with the former and little to none with the latter, about 70% of your problems go away.
