Depends which “people” you’re talking about. I’m old enough to remember that corporations ARE people!
In a democracy, we are supposed to feel like we have control over our lives because the people control the government.

But in the U.S., people feel like our lives are out of control because the people don’t control the federal government.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

“Supply side boom”? You mean absolute collapse of retail demand?
EISEN: It's strange if you really think GDP is around 7% to argue for lower interest rates in that environment, especially w/ inflation above target

HASSETT: If we continue to have the supply side boom we've seen in the first half of this year there will be plenty of room for the Fed to lower rates

Keep Colorado River water in the Colorado River watershed.
California will continue working with our Colorado River Basin partners in good faith and with an open hand to reach a durable agreement that protects all users of the Colorado River — including the tens of millions of Californians who depend on it.
Western governors are called to Washington as Colorado River impasse drags on
Talks among seven states on Colorado River water cutbacks have hit a wall. The Trump administration summoned governors to Washington, D.C., to try to get an agreement.

Pedophile and, perhaps, smelling of feces due to the fact that he's decaying, Donald Trump's stock has gone way down with the knowledge by all sane people in the world that he's an soulless piece of shit.

More than a week before his crucifixion by Roman law enforcement, Jesus of Nazareth infuriated other authorities as he overturned vendor tables at the temple farmers market and cursed at an innocent fig tree causing it to wither, according to newly unearthed videos. Watch here.
More than a week before federal agents killed Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, different agents pushed him to the ground after he spit at them and broke a taillight on their SUV, according to newly unearthed videos. Watch here.

Marco Rubio has many titles, except when it’s time to take accountability. He may be the Secretary of State, but Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are negotiating with foreign leaders behind his back. When did the Senate confirm them as our representatives on the world stage?

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

We need to talk about the rise of "smol bean fascism" where you have all the guns and the immunity but the really scary people are the ones with whistles and phone cameras and they're giving you generational trauma and ptsd by filming you killing people for no reason

The safest thing for any American civilian to do at this point is to assume that every ICE or CBP agent you encounter is a pardoned violent January 6 insurrectionist with demonstrated homicidal urges toward those they disagree with politically and choose your actions accordingly.

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

Where are the real (state) police??
Stop what you’re doing and read this whistleblower report. ICE has been training its agents that they don’t need a judicial warrant to break down your door - a blatant violation of the 4th Amendment. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

"Kavanaugh stops" have quickly expanded to become "Kavanaugh body tackles" and other forms of "Kavanaugh assaults."

Sadly, the odds are very high that there will be soon be "Kavanaugh summary executions" of Americans whom ICE agents decide aren't Americans.

Gavin Newsom is a presidential frontrunner in part because he not only talked the talk about fighting Trump, but came up with and executed a plan to actually do it. Other Democrats should take note. Words and stern letters ain’t sufficient.

Awful: New report shows federal agents fired into civilian vehicles 13 times since July, with 8 people hit and two dead. These are heavily armed government militias gone rogue, not bound or accountable to law, unleashing violence on Americans with full White House sanction.
