Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.

When Trump says “my friends will get hurt” if the full Epstein files come out, it’s useful to remember that:
1. He has no real friends
2. He speaks about himself regularly in the third person.
3. He’s a rapist who likes ‘em real young.
Happy new year!

Wall Street investors are buying up neighborhoods and communities across the U.S.
This is wrecking the housing market, driving up rents, and making it nearly impossible for working people to afford to buy a home.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

The 60 minutes CECOT video is awful. Torture conditions of migrants who had legal status.
The end of the episodes alluded to other, less transparent prisons that Trump has used in other countries known for torture.

People who have heard about the abuse and torture at CECOT, who still support Trump, and call themselves Christians, is something I will never forget or forgive.
What Trump is doing to people is so damn evil, it is not surprising that CBS bosses will not allow us to see the horror Trump has caused.

8 years ago the GOP insisted the president didn’t say what we all heard him say: that the Nazis who attacked & murdered people in Charlottesville were “very fine people.”
Now the VP - and the entire GOP - use word-for-word the same rhetoric of those very Nazis on a daily basis
