In case you missed it, President Trump fell asleep on television multiple times this week. trib.al/ynSGmmU
I really hate to play the “age card,” folks, but if Biden’s famous aging struggles were once a national catastrophe, why aren't Trump's?

Military historian Sarah Paine lays out a blunt reality: Russia’s expansion has repeatedly wiped rival states off the map.
This pattern, she argues, explains why countries on Russia’s borders have treated it as a permanent existential threat

So the boot-licking cowards in Congress, instead of standing up to the lawless criminal, behind closed doors, they laugh at him, while “kissing his ass” in public. Pathetic.

ICE
Without a warrant
Aimed rifles at university students
No warrant
They should have been stopped at the gate
Illegal activities must be stopped before they get on private property
People have rights!

ICE stormed a residence hall at Augsburg University, detained an undergrad, and aimed rifles at students and staff then admitted they had no warrant to be on campus.
This is state violence. This is terror. And this is exactly what Trump’s America unleashes on our communities.

If you vote for populist right-wing politicians, I won't be there to save you afterwards. They'll have already taken me when they come after you.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”
What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”
Funny how that works.

Trump's second term eviscerated regulatory autonomy. They even randomly fired Democratic commissioners.
This corruption WILL kill people and cause generational public harm, but it continues to receive less attention in the press than whatever brainfart Sam Altman has each morning

NEW: SCOTUS will hear arguments Monday on Trump’s attempt to fire the last Democratic FTC commissioner. A ruling for the president could dangerously expand his control over agencies regulating the economy, stock market, campaign finance and communications.
