"Is there a way to love always?
Living in enemy hallways?
Don't know my foes from my friends and
Don't know my friends anymore.
Power has several prizes
Handcuffs can come in all sizes
Love has a million disguises
But winning is simply not one"

Yikes 😬 an official U.S. government account just referred to Americans as “imbecilic morons.” That’s… a choice.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.
That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Mike Johnson is a joke. He is yelling after the shooting of Charlie Kirk about political violence saying this is not who we are.
It is who we are. It’s what the GOP sowed. They elected a felon who spouts violence and bullies Americans.
It’s who they made us.

I'm 💯 positive that Ohio MAGA parents didn't realize this was what they voted for.
And even when they start to lose their healthcare, SNAP, and other supports, and increasingly can't afford groceries, many will still not be able to connect the dots. 😭😭😭😭

In Ohio and other red states, “school choice” means that state legislatures and their donors are choosing not to adequately fund public education—including diverting district money to transport kids to private schools. It’s not about individual freedom.

Money Quote "Trump effectively has a green light to use his law enforcement powers for corrupt and personal ends, without any fear that he will be held accountable when he leaves office"
Reupping my piece from a couple of weeks ago on how SCOTUS has made it easier, not harder, for bad faith presidents to go after their predecessors www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...
Opinion | The immunity ruling was ostensibly to protect former presidents. So much for that.
Far from deterring such prosecutions, the court’s 2024 decision has made them easier.
