It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

“They’ve got money for ICE and golden ballrooms but not for hungry families” is so easy it’s almost funny
Johnson: Snap benefits is a unique situation. I got a summary of the legal analysis…the contingency funds are not legally available to cover the benefits right now

I love seeing the REM respect on my timeline, the sheer number of songs people are referencing are a testament to how phenomenal they were. No joke I think they are a top 5 American band.
it is probably “find the river”
Without saying Losing My Religion, fav R.E.M. Song?

THEY F*CKING TOOK THE ICE CREAM MAN! The photo says it all.
Masked ICE goons grabbed Enrique Lozano in front of a Culver City, CA church. A Community Coalition helped the family identify the abandoned cart, locate his belongings. For 20 years, loved in the community. "Hardened criminals" - my ass.

Trump was just at the G-7 claiming he signed a deal between the US and the UK, thinking they were still part of the EU.
Then he dropped the paper on live TV so everyone could see he signed a blank sheet of paper.
But sure, Jake. Biden age = Bush falsely claiming Iraq had WMDs.

Jake Tapper on C-SPAN: "I feel this way about the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq story. I was a reporter that was skeptical of the WMD claim, but certainly in hindsight I wish I had been more skeptical. When it comes to President Biden's acuity ... I wish I had covered it more aggressively."

Everything was fine until Trump decided to unleash violent raids w/o grounds in elementary schools, shopping areas, & peaceful public spaces.
ICE then illegally blocked Members of Congress entry into the facilities they are disappearing people into, escalating the situation.

Trump started a trade war, lost it, and now calls a 90-day pause a “victory.” It’s like lighting your kitchen on fire and asking for applause because you found the fire extinguisher.
