#ProudBlue Believer in democracy, "a government of the people, by the people, and for the people"--and that means all the people, of all colors, all genders and gender preferences, all creeds; the only exceptions being bigots and fascists of all stripes

My hero dad Martin Adler fought and killed nazis in WWII. He lived to 99 years old and saw many similarities in the actions of tRump and the fascists of WWII. I feel him here supporting all of us resisters and I won’t let him down.

RAJU: You swore in 2 GOP members during pro forma session. Why not swear in Grijalva? Does it have to do w/her signature on Epstein petition?

JOHNSON: It has nothing to do with that. We'll swear her in when everybody is back

R: Why not now?

J: Uh - we'll schedule it, I guess, as soon as she wants

When even Marjorie Taylor Greene jumps ship on health care, you know the regime’s rot runs deep. Authoritarians don’t care if you can see a doctor…they care that you obey. Power first. People last.

Fox doesn't even try anymore They know all they have to do is feed Trump's racism and their audience will eat it up. They trot out a whiter than white redhead as a member of a Mexican cartel, a fake they called Ramon "Mundo" Mendoza. He looks JUST like the former antifa member Jesse showed last week

If the Republicans' shutdown gambit succeeds, "it will prove that Americans care more about choking off aid to undocumented immigrants—even where the aid is *already prohibited*—than we do about helping fellow Americans."

Read @saletan.bsky.social:

When in Doubt, Blame the Immigrants

No. You’re not experiencing déjà vu. The current Republican government shutdown talking point is the same one they’ve trotted out before.

i think it is cool that a government run by fanatical bigots is on track to plunge the economy into a mountain and cause a food crisis

David Dayen @ddayen.bsky.social · 2h

So this is funny.
The administration just issued a rule slashing foreign agricultural worker wages. And to justify it, in a public filing, Trump's Labor Department alleges that Trump's immigration enforcement has devastated the Ag workforce and caused a "risk of supply shock-induced food shortages."

Trump Labor Department Says His Immigration Raids Are Causing a Food Crisis

In a filing in the Federal Register, the Labor Department argues there are “immediate dangers to the American food supply” due to a lack of migrant agricultural workers.
