Trump's crimes are worse than many suspected, but with the ugly proof of how bad they are emerging, the question every American faces is--now what? There isn't a disinfectant strong enough to remove the stain of his presidency from history, but the work of removing him & his Repub enablers remains.

Brown U., my alma mater, has been called "the Happy Ivy" by some because of the lifelong feeling of community it fosters. Saturday's mass shooting was another reminder that in a nation with 500 million guns, violence is eventually going to hit home

TIL Maine didn't let Native Americans vote until 1954. This Silver Star recipient was told he couldn't vote after he showed up in uniform.

"the unbelievable irony that the very people who came to... rescue New Orleans ... after flooding from 2005’s Hurricane Katrina swamped thousands of homes and killed 1,833 people, are now seeing their new world turned upside down by the same U.S. government that vowed to rebuild the Crescent City."
I went to New Orleans to see what it looks like when a great American city comes under siege from the government, as masked goons of 'Catahoula Crunch' lie about nabbing bad guys before swarming Home Depot, roofing jobs for folks with brown skin

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.

If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.

It’s that simple.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

Removing a monument honoring Black US soldiers has nothing to do with DEI. It’s erasure of history and it’s straight-up racism.

“$170 BILLION for ICE. $40 BILLION for Argentina. $1 BILLION for Trump’s Qatari jet. $230 MILLION for Trump’s DOJ “compensation”. $200 MILLION for Noem’s jets… But nothing for health care?

great news! I talked to the guy Thursday about his campaign’s success at bringing community together beyond this election, and contextualized how it’s potentially shifted youth engagement with politics by simply listening @teenvogue.com

“What Mamdani has done is not only inspire and mobilize young people, but he has exposed the establishment and some of their calcified views of participation and inclusion.”

Even Marie Antoinette didn't defame starving peasants with criminal behavior for their hunger. She told them to eat cake, while weirdo Higgins warns SNAP recipients to stop smoking crack and blames them for not having doomsday prepped a year's worth of groceries. Nuts.
Rep. Clay Higgins of Louisiana blames SNAP recipients for not stockpiling a month's worth of food.
