Bunch of new medical personnel being flown to Germany? Probably nothing to see here. 🤦‍♂️ (Germany is the primary hub to prepare for military casualties in the Middle East. They’re flexing a lot of personnel, including over 100 medics)

The best way to get to the bottom of the McConnell question is for the governor to appoint a replacement. The GOP legislature passed a law stripping him of that power, but it goes against the state constitution. If they refuse to seat the replacement, take them to court. There’s zero downside.

“This is taking a big and very scary step toward a kind of totalitarian checkpoint society.” The DHS is using Mobile Fortify, an app that allows officers to photograph a person’s face and immediately query DHS databases for matches, on protestors.

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

Reporters: please stop using the word "shocking" to describe the actions of the Trump regime. Anybody who is still shocked by Trumpist behavior after 10 months of this is either hopelessly stupid or deeply in need of professional help.

We’re at peak greed when the president brags about 24k gold décor for the White House while cutting commissaries, healthcare, and social nets. A palace of glitter for him, an empty pantry and hospital bill for you.

A months-long investigation estimates that the profits from the Trump family's ventures in private clubs, hotels, golf courses, crypto currencies, NFTs, and other businesses has raised President Trump’s net worth by billions of dollars.

newyorker.comHow Much Is Trump Profiting Off the Presidency?A comprehensive estimate of how much Trump and his family are making, from hotel mega-deals to crypto schemes, has been elusive—until now.

Democrats need to use their talking points to weave into the conversation some reviews of WHY we are a Dem. Repub. Ppl have lost the historical perspective (i.e. England) Perhaps a series of short continuous adds incl. messages from forefathers.???

Was just reading a historical novel (1863ish) and the term “self governing “ came up. Made me think about definitions of terms re: the current administration. 1st, is 47 saying we are too stupid and inept to govern ourselves? 2nd we need to insist they thoroughly define their terms (words).

This too is a long shot but could this grotesque display of greed, anti humanism, anti morality, etc. an opportunity to return to the concept that all people are the only thing that matters. Accumulation of money means absolutely nothing to the universe.

Day 68 into the GOP takeover: Prices are going up. Consumer confidence is plummeting. Classified info is being leaked. Social Security is being dismantled. Residents are being arrested for their political views.

Stephen Covey in his popular time management book, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, says “Start with the end in mind”. My question is ‘What end does Elon Musk have in mind?’ That terrifies me.

Watching the relationship between 47 and Elon recently….could 47 somehow ‘APPOINT’ Elon to the Presidency should anything happen to him or in ‘28? 47 will be 79 soon and can’t be in great health. He DID promise that’24 would be the last election!

The Dept of Education supplements state resources for the 7.5 million students in this country with disabilities. Do all the Trump-voting parents of special needs kids understand what he’s doing to them? Do they understand what he is doing to their kids? Do they??
