There is no world in which the net result of all of this is not more violence. They are causing the violence. Repeat. They are causing it.

There have been nine ICE shootings. There will be more. I think it may be time to consider these actions in the historical context of the Central American death squads supported by previous iterations of U.S. imperialism. And ICE's hostile incursion into "blue" cities as a form of imperialism, too.

Dems need to "articulate it in word and deed: unlike Rs, who steal your money every day and coddle sex offenders to maintain good standing with Trump, we don’t tolerate depravity in our party."

He says inflation has “stopped.” He says his policies will cut drug prices by “400, 500, even 600 percent.” He says he has brought down the price of food and gas. He says that wages are up and manufacturing jobs are back.

Trouble is, none of that is true. trib.al/lUCvThT

This is blatantly illegal. A president can’t go into the oil business and then decide where to spend the money. We are completely untethered from our founding document with a lawless president and a Republican Congress which has abdicated all Constitutional authority.

Trump is pushing the invasion of Greenland again. Denmark needs to kick out the US, send a larger military contingent and air defence systems to protect against a US invasion and attacks. Failing to do so is dangerously shortsighted.

Rally at 5:30pm by the gates of Armstrong Park followed by a march through the French Quarter.

Be prepared to travel light because the National Guard is searching bags.

The next Democratic president needs to be prepared to do this immediately in re: every single one of Trump's executive orders since January 20, 2025.
I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.

He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.

Ask yourself: If Donald Trump was a Russian asset, what would he be doing differently?

If your answer is “nothing,” then ask yourself this:

If the US President is a Russian asset, what should *I* be doing differently?
Trump: "Russia wants to see Ukraine succeed. It sounds a little strange but President Putin was very generous in his feeling toward Ukraine succeeding, including supplying energy, electricity and other things at very low prices."

Musk deciding to aim his Death Star at the 2026 elections is the biggest political story since the election, if not of the whole year.

We know his playbook. And we know his greatest advantage is Democrats' fear of fighting his fire with water.

Greenland is about 2 things.

1. Minerals
2. Would Europe support Greenland after being annexed by the USA in the same way they supported Ukraine?

If not. Europe and NATO would lose all legitimacy.

For those of us warning about democracy's potential disintegration, the decision by CBS to pull an exhaustively researched 60 Minutes piece, critical of Trump, is another red alert moment.

When truth disappears as the media gets coopted by the regime, there's little left.

One CEO shouldn’t control the entire entertainment industry — we have anti-monopoly laws to stop that from happening.

The Trump Administration needs to follow the law, and block Netflix or Paramount from buying Warner Bros.

The White House has been caught.

The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.

In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

Elon Musk’s net worth has now surpassed $600 billion, just weeks after Tesla approved his 10-year, $1 trillion pay package.

That could amount to $100 billion per year — more than 1.4 million elementary school teachers’ paychecks combined.

Still wondering if inequality is out of control?
