Happy Presidents’ Day to the last real president we had. Americans now see he delivered a strong economy, low unemployment, major infrastructure investment, the CHIPS Act, & the 1st Black woman on the SC. He was treated shamefully—his only “crime” was aging. I hope we learn from how good we had it.

Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker, gets gardening time, sports, therapy dogs, and spa products in prison.

Migrant children in custody are sleeping on concrete floors without enough food or clean water.

Our priorities are so fucked.

The link between crime and the number of police has never been weaker.

"... only one theory can match the decline in its scope and scale: the massive, post-pandemic investment in local governments deployed during the Biden administration, particularly through the American Rescue Plan Act... 1/2

“By law we can create an independent US Prosecution Service to replace the POTUS controlled DOJ and abolish and replace ICE and USBP. Reform the pardon power by law and term-limit and expand the size of SCOTUS. Make DC and Puerto Rico states, enfranchising millions of Americans."

Fortune just reported that several Wall Street bigwigs say the U.S. jobs number released by the Trump administration is "implausible," requiring a downward correction.

Imagine that! The Trump administration being accused of lying...

Democrats should propose amendments to the SAVE act that require the government to furnish free IDs to all eligible voters before requiring them, automatically register all people to vote, expand mail-in voting, and create a national voting holiday. Then watch republicans block them.

Sadly, ICE learned what not to do in Minnesota… they have not left… but are spreading out in disguise tricking and nabbing people before we can respond. We need a new plan….

Reminder that Elon Musk is in the Epstein files and has already been named by one of the survivors. Anyone still using X is helping a pedophile succeed.

This comes just weeks after a mother from Maryland was denied the right to be at her son’s side as he died from cancer.
 
Not one dime for this cruelty.

A Europe-based project to unmasking US ICE agents is racking up views, and mobilizing volunteers in the process.

The site, known as the “ICE List,” traces back to June, after Kristi Noem warned that Americans who publicly identify ICE agents could face arrest.

Apparently Ron DeSantis wants to eliminate property taxes. If Floridians aren't already the dumbest people in the country, they soon will be with no funding for public education.

They really do want to keep us poor and stupid.

It’s beginning to look like the military is ok with what Trump is doing. They cheer for him like they’re at a political rally and they are! Military is supposed to be nonpartisan because they are supposed to protect ALL Americans not just the maga ones!! Trump is destroying our democratic system.
