Politics needs compromise and dignity again.
I believe in helping people, not enabling them. Give someone a fish and they eat for a day; teach someone to fish and they eat for a lifetime.

WTF? ICE is arguing in court that US CITIZENS can be detained, handcuffed, and biometrically screened unless they can prove citizenship on the spot. And that a REAL ID isn't enough. This isn't border security.

The blockade of Venezuela is a disgusting echo of U.S. imperialism in Latin America. We were lied to about Iraq and WMDs, and an entire generation paid the price.
Here we are again.
We cannot let a wannabe dictator drag us into another forever war.

Trump orders oil tankers blockade in Venezuela, labels Maduro regime a "terrorist" group

Be like Rob Reiner. A must read.
It hasn't even been twelve hours, but all three of us have been overwhelmed with requests from media for comment and I'm mostly writing this now so they'll leave me alone.
this is such a painful loss. my heart is broken.

Elon Musk is now worth $600 billion.
Someone working at the federal minimum wage would have to work 9.45 million years to make that much money.
We are all so much closer to being homeless than being a billionaire.
Tax the rich.
