How ridiculous is this? Billions of tax dollars and years to build a vanity project that will be a huge target and have no purpose.

I’ve been off Twitter for a long time, but I’m very curious how the Twitter trolls are spinning this from the “no new wars peace president”?

Every community has good people and bad people. Normalize targeting the bad people without judging entire groups based on the actions of a few. Doing otherwise is the definition of prejudice. #somali #afghan

CORRECT. And interdicting the boat, capturing the low-level workers and getting information from them could provide a path to getting the ACTUAL drug dealers.

But that wouldn't make Pete Hegseth feel all manly.

I just spent 4 hours shopping for a fancy dress for a holiday party, including getting dressed and undressed a few dozen times and walking from store to store. I’m counting it as a workout, and I don’t care what anyone thinks! I’m exhausted! PS - still no dress. Ugh, I’m going shopping in my closet.

Amazon laying off 30,000 management level positions means now they can afford to pay the staff a LOT more, right? RIGHT???

I’m no economist, but it seems to me that canceling tariffs on beef, coffee and fruit due to public pressure is an admission that the American taxpayers are, in fact, paying the tariffs.

Could someone please explain to me the difference between what Dick Cheney did and what Trump is going now?

Don’t want to pay for SNAP benefits for working people? Raise the minimum wage and pay our military a livable wage.

POTUS deciding who can buy TikTok (and at highly undervalued rates) is alarming. This is an excerpt from David Frum’s essay in The Atlantic:

This BS Trump speech about Tylenol causing autism really checks all the right wing extremism boxes:
-Big Pharma bad
-Vaccines bad too
-Women should just suffer
-Everything is women’s fault
-Science is stupid
-Evidence is BS
-Being different/disabled is AWFUL

This isn’t about Jimmy Kimmel. It’s not about Charlie Kirk. It’s about free speech in the USA. Free speech is a requirement for democracy. The FCC chair should not dictate programming content. Government control over broadcasting is the definition of autocracy.

Saying people are “speaking ill of the dead” when giving direct quotes from Charlie Kirk reminds me of the outrage when PBS published the Declaration of Independence, and when a Christian social media personality read from the Bible. If it doesn’t fit their narrative, they hate it.

I am fully convinced that when the christofascists yell “pedophile,” they are referring ONLY to men raping boys. They think raping girls is perfectly acceptable.

Radical thought: eyes, ears and teeth are part of the human body, and people’s health relies on the proper functioning of these body parts. They should be included in Medicare, Medicaid and healthcare insurance.

The Trump administration isn’t just separating families though deportation. Many people a legitimately frightened of traveling to or from the US to visit family.

Has Donald Trump ever denounced Jeffrey Epstein for being a pedophile? Or just complained that he “stole” a teen employee?

This song is over 50 years old, but is still relevant. “Tax the rich, feed the poor” “World pollution, there's no solution
Institution, electrocution
Just black and white, rich or poor
Them and us, stop the war”

When will we learn?
