even just as an ostensibly home town paper I feel like fifth ave full of protesters for 20 blocks is kind of an interesting home town story
To put more emphasis on this: Hundreds of thousands of Americans in at least 1400 cities and towns across the country, including in heavily Republican areas that never protest, protested Trump and Musk and their 401Ks being wiped out yesterday, and it’s NOT a main front page story in the Times.
And the only mention of it on the actual print front page is just an image with a caption telling people they need to turn to page 18 to read about it. Not worthy of a front page story, apparently.

If the U.S. military is given direct orders to seize Greenland—pull down another nation’s flag, and then claim the ground in the name of the United States—every senior commander has a moral obligation to refuse to accept or support such a command.

Trump’s Greenland Ambitions Are No Joke
The Danes seem to believe him, and so should Americans.

Trump's entire shtick has always been "I will make you rich." It's what his TV show was, what his books and "university" were, and it's what his presidency is. It's all about the hope that if you support him and do what he does, you'll become him.

It's all a con. It always was. It always will be.

Imagine being a veteran who fought on the front lines for this country and then getting fired by a draft dodger and his sidekick muskrat. And then they say you're "not fit"

Trump adviser Alina Habba says veterans fired by DOGE are perhaps 'not fit to have a job at this moment'
Emily Erroa, an Army veteran who was fired from the Energy Department last month, called Habba's comments "ridiculous" and "insulting."

He’s trying to cause nationwide riots so that Trump can do what? Declare martial law? That’s my best guess.

Republican leadership is telling members to cancel town halls—they're running scared. Keep up the pressure. They can’t hide from the American people.

Their goal is not to make government more effective… quite the opposite. Their goal is to break anything that is working.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is one of our most efficient agencies. Costs less than $1B a year & has fought to return over $20B directly to Americans.

But I guess it makes sense that a billionaire wants to eliminate one of the agencies that fights for working people. 🤷🏾‍♂️

I cannot thank these courageous women enough for telling their stories. Abortion is not "murder." It is an alternative for women. And they owe no one an explanation.

Listen to them.
Join me on YouTube for The Pun Show where women tell their stories of why they got abortions. It was a choice of convenience.

Elon Musk can't legally ever be president according to the constitution, so, with a metaphorical Middle Finger to ALL of America he decided that he would, in Broad daylight, Just Buy the Presidency. I wonder if his apartheid South African roots align with guy who said "they are poisoning our blood"?

Trump lied all the way through the campaign saying he knew nothing about Project 2025 and now he's nominating everyone from Project 2025 to serve in his administration.

Messaging wasn't the problem for Kamala. It's that Trump can lie over and over and never pays a price.

When the senate starts to try to confirm these cabinet nominations and democratic senators are asking them questions-----Every one of them needs to be asked "Who won the 2020 Presidential election". Watch them all squirm to try not to offend their Dear Leader.

It's not just their wealth but their adventure of controlling other American lives, which is a matter of concern. Not one of them on the Trump team is a normal human. Very soon people will find out the reality.👇

Trump is telling us that he’s going to fire hundreds of thousands, deport tens of millions, kick tens of millions off their healthcare & cut hundreds of millions in social programs and Ma and Pa MAGA STILL believe all of this shit is going to help them in some fucking way.

Narrator: it’s not.

HAPPY SUNDAY FOLKS!

I'm so excited: I just followed back 3,000 people, and I'm less than 3K from the big 300!!!

ALSO, I JUST finished my 2nd Starter Pack. A HUGE thrill was people telling me they got 15,000 from my first one! I'm definitely doing another.

Please share widely.
