I’m sticking to my policy of muting people who post the Rockwell Free Speech meme (usually with pointless comments like “My cat knows better than yours”). I’d still like, for the record, to point out that the guy is a dead ringer for my childhood friend Harold K’s father, hands and everything.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

The so-called Save America Act will force 21 million American citizens to produce passports or birth certificates just to register to vote. Most do not have them ready. Turning paperwork into a barrier is a poll tax by another name. #HandsOffHerVote social.demcast.com/s/L9X3k1fQ

Trump is building an army loyal to him alone, and paying them up to $250k/year. If you can’t see ICE for what it is yet, then you’re not going to until it’s too late.

Trump's tariffs aren't hitting foreign markets like he claimed they would.
The facts are clear: American importers, businesses, and U.S. consumers are shouldering nearly all the cost.
Chaos is not a trade strategy. It harms working families and businesses alike.

Trump’s Favorite Gesture to America Has Always Been the Middle Finger
From burying the Epstein files to weaponizing the Justice Department and intimidating cities with federal force, Trump’s obscene outburst wasn’t a lapse—it was the thesis.

Half of whom love Trump more than ever. Why does the NYT run this crap? Why do they keep normalizing an insane situation? People still holding the opinion that Trump is doing great need to be sidelined or sternly educated, not given pride of voice in the NYT.
