I voted for the competent woman. 2x. There is no inheritance tax on first $28M. Don’t let billionaires fool you. Your parents’ house is safe. There is no FICA collected on income over $176k. Raise cap. “Save” SS. Tax Billionaires.

Great news! I met trucker today. He has a HUGE trump sticker on the back window of his trailer cab. He complained today to a coworker over beers “I don’t know about this fucking trump. These 1st 100 days are horrible. I’m worried because the work is really slowing.” Hates Elon too. Didn’t go as far

PSA for the menfolk:

Your anti-racist stance is hollow - and, ultimately, meaningless - without an equal commitment to the ongoing, active work of anti-misogyny.

Sen. Alex Padilla blocked GOP efforts to pass the SAVE Act, calling it an attack on voter access. He’s pushing new legislation to expand registration, fight Trump’s voter data order and defend free elections.

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.

They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.

France also gave us this land as American soil.

Sadly I did not know this for the first 55 years of my life. They do not teach you this. This is absolutely true. And we should honor all of them this Memorial Day and always

Not for nothing. He and his friends are getting rich on the market swings
Trump reduced the tariffs on China in exchange for nothing.

He paused the tariffs on Canada & Mexico in exchange for nothing.

He postponed tariffs on EU in exchange for nothing.

He threatened Russia with sanctions if they didn’t sign ceasefire & did nothing.

Art of the Deal.

Many historians "have come to see colonizers as oppressors and colonized peoples as oppressed," Sarah Bilston writes. But Victorian orchid hunters are not easy to place in this dichotomy:
How Orchid Hunters Complicate Colonial Narratives
They were sent to exploit foreign lands, but they were victims of exploitation themselves.

There is no question that Elon Musk is a Nazi, an anti-semite and he is the President-elect of the United States. This should be every American’s concern!
I implore you to re-post this,
every single American should know that Musk is a Nazi and that his colleagues are, as well.

Phang: And you’ve got to appreciate that the congresswoman was able to say, “Look, this ain’t Fox News, buddy. This is Congress.” So if you’re going to be here and you’re going to try to make an allegation somewhere publicly, you better be able to back it up.

The language is precise, intentional, for good and ill. It created hierarchies between a “citizens” and “persons” and their rights. The 3/5ths compromise was exactly about differentiation. But Constitution clearly asserts that the laws of the new country, one powered by immigrants, ruled over all.

It's going to take a long time for the rest of us to forgive Trump voters for what they did to this country. Actions speak louder than words, so if former Maga actually stand up to the fascist, redemption is possible. An apology is nice, but resistance is what we need to see.

Exactly this. They want black people in the streets so they can plant agitators (like last time) to commit violence as an excuse to suspend habeas corpus for everyone.
Walz ain’t pardoning him and state prison is worse

They are trying to provoke you onto the streets. Don’t take the bait
Did call it or did I call it? Sigh..

Again, this is what White America chose.
