Watching commentators still refusing to see the white nationalism of this administration and arguingTrump is targeting Atlanta, Philadelphia and Detroit because they are blue cities is just, it’s got to be intentional at this point. There are a ton of blue cities. These are majority Black cities.

Trump said he would fight for “forgotten Americans.” I didn’t know that meant Jeff Bezos.
Despite making $89.5 BILLION in profits last year, Amazon paid just 3.1% in taxes.
This is what Republicans’ SNAP & Medicaid cuts were for.
Guess that ‘Melania’ doc really paid off.

one thing i have noticed is a lot of folks do not seem to understand the difference between a presidential election and 435+ legislative elections. i have seen any number of people say that you could subvert the outcome this november by targeting “swing states,” which does not make any sense.

ICE is running a “conveyor belt” of illegally detained Minnesota families.
Agents are arresting entire families with legal status and immediately shipping them off to Texas to deny them legal representation and avoid the federal courts in Minnesota.
The cruelty is endless.
