Trump just admitted the truth: The "attack" on Putin’s home never happened. 🚨

As much as fascists despise “cultural elites,” they crave the prestige and relevance the arts can bestow on its patrons. Moreover, they fear the arts community as a hotbed of irreverence, dissent, and nonconformism.

Today is the five year anniversary of the most peaceful capital tour in U.S. history. Don't believe me, you can read all about it in the Trump Bible for only $99 dollars, and a monthly commitment of $1000 dollars a month for life. Trump 2028, it's not a lie if you believe it.

Where is Congress?
I’ll tell you where. Cowering in their corners. Too afraid to step into this fight for democracy and America. Instead, they’ll let him burn the world to a cinder. They want the power, but none of the responsibility. It doesn’t stop here. He’s going to continue waging wars.

Tony Dokoupil's audition for Bari Weiss was attacking Ta-Nehisi Coates for talking about Palestinian liberation and criticizing Israel's occupation.
Voila, he's failed up to become the lead anchor for CBS Evening News.
But at what cost?
He's a punchline, a joke, and seen as a total clown.

If you want our politics to change, it is IMPERATIVE that you become a different kind of voter:
1) become an OBSESSIVE primary, local & off-cycle voter
2) research every candidate and don’t rely on what commercials tell you about them
3) show up at events where candidates speak & debate

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

When I first interviewed Rob Reiner he told me: “There’s no question about it. This is the most corrupt and criminal presidency that we’ve ever seen. Not only corrupt and criminal. He’s inept. He’s not qualified, and he’s incredibly stupid.”
Still holds true to this very day. RIP Rob and Michele.
