Favorite PINO story was when he gave Christie the task of assembling the new admin by vetting & shepherding a thousand nominees. He was summarily fired when PINO found out he was raising his own money, as required by law, and not tithing to Trump. “I don’t care about the law! I want my money!”

The fact that AIPAC won’t endorse me is an endorsement in and of itself.

And the enshittification continues.

If you are on ICE watch in the Rogers Park vicinity please have a buddy and exercise extreme caution. ICE has assaulted verifiers today and arrested at least one of our people. If you are vulnerable to ICE in this area, I recommend staying inside if possible.

Cost of the Argentina bailout Trump is trying to finance: $40B.

That same amount could fund almost two years of extended ACA subsidies, or two years of full SNAP benefits, or nearly all of the annual Medicare cuts from Trump's Big Ugly Bill.

Priorities.

Raskin with Jeffries: "It's an alarming situation where now we have many of these January 6 defendants who have been picked up on other defenses. The Department of Justice is not zealously prosecuting them for other crimes they have committed ... it's a very dangerous situation."

This was made for a British audience, but it applies to America, too. Wealth should be taxed at a higher rate than labor, because the obscenely rich don't do anything useful with their obscene riches. Indeed, they do immense harm.
While the cost of living rages, the rich evade tax

THIS IS NOT AMERICA: According to a Pro Public investigation, more than 20 citizens were illegally held in detention without being able to contact their loved ones or a lawyer.

ICE agents also arrested 130 citizens, including a dozen elected officials.

The man who wanted to kill Hakeem Jeffries used the same language as Mike Johnson.
Nail him to the wall, but be kind and don’t penetrate the skin.

That’s not how I expected the second half of this headline to go. “Part of White House Reduced to Rubble” should be followed by “What the Fuck.”

Isn’t it wild that you can simply ask, ‘Is he dead yet?’ and everyone knows who you’re talking about.

I for one refuse to believe that Shirish's mom would have suggested Budapest
NEW -- Karoline Leavitt keeps insulting HuffPost, but does not want to answer what seems like a pretty simple question: Who picked Budapest as the next meeting site between Trump and his 2016 benefactor/murderous war criminal Vladimir Putin?

It is “criminal “ that military cannot afford groceries.

This should be a wake up call for everyone.

Defund billionaires.
Tax those earning over $10m, like all the entertainers on tv and athletes.

I don't remember what their powers are for "essential workers", but they do have them. When it truly gets interesting is when they can't pay for food, rent, utilities and business fare. Personally since they aren't being paid I believe they should receive unemployment at a minimum.
The presstitutes will never report something that doesn’t support their oligarch.
Nailed it!!!! 🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯

QOTD: "…if you genuinely believed that preteen girls are old enough to be mothers while males in their thirties are too young to comprehend fascism, then you logically wouldn't trust men to be responsible for anything more consequential than a balloon animal, let alone a government."

Lawmakers face blowback from angry ranchers who were already alarmed by Trump’s $40 billion bailout of Argentina — even as the country undercuts US soybean farmers over trade with China.
