Ford has caved to MAGA pressure and suspended TJ Sabula, the auto worker who called Trump a “pedophile protector” to his face today.

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.
This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

His words remain true 30 years later, as Senate Republicans advance a bill that would slash funding for PBS and NPR.

So, when can we expect the current administration to rename the EPA to a more fitting name such as, the EDA, Environmental Destruction Agency? We know how the orange felon just loves to rename things.

I paid my federal taxes today. How come there isn't a prompt asking me where I would like my contribution go towards; a US backed gulag in El Salvadore or Harvard? Hard to follow the laws today when all the positive causes that my taxes used to support have been stripped away by a felon and crew.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.
