I've been rewatching the old TV series Hogan's Heroes. As a kid I understood it to be comedy and nothing that was real. I remember thinking no one is really that oblivious and stupid.

And then I saw a picture of Trump receiving his FIFA Peace Prize.

Oh what a strange beast reality is.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

Dear Democratic party,
During the last 10 years what has been your official plan to counter trickle down economics? What parts of it did you implement? What parts of it did you try to implement but were unsuccessful?

Newsom is sending a FOIA to the Trump administration about Custom and Border Protection/ICE’s show of force outside his press conference in Little Tokyo this week. It also includes records related to ICE/CBP embedding a Fox News reporter for their raid.

Without the current gerrymandered Republican seats, Republicans would not control the house and the Big Ugly Bill would not have passed.

Article I Sections 9 & 10 of the U.S. Constitution—which limit presidential power over tariffs and protect habeas corpus—have disappeared from Congress’s website. They claim a coding error is to blame.

When I was young I had a plaque in my room that said "He who has the most toys wins". At the time I thought it was cute. I realize now the billionaires are still playing. It doesn't matter they don't need 10 more pennies, they're still going to take them, because he who was the most wins.

Reposting this and a few other things for no particular reason today. Maybe I’ll do it tomorrow and the next day, too.

Why is Trump waging a war on public broadcasting and the Department of Education?

Because he wants us less informed, less knowledgeable, and less connected.

This attack on our minds is central to the fascist playbook. youtu.be/rEH7sF6pA4s?...
