AP is reporting this " at least the NINTH reported shooting" during ICE attempted arrests ". In the case of Biddeford, Me, no body cams were worn. My question is why aren't the media outlets hammering that point home? apnews.com/article/immi...

Donald dodged the draft 5 times, yet all of a sudden he is an expert in Naval Warfare? A few of the weapons/sensors that are shown to be on here have NOT even reached operational capability. We abandoned the rail gun several years ago,. news.usni.org/2025/12/22/t...
Trump is indeed clueless. And one of the problems that ACA continually faces is that R's use of " Obamacare " is not out of respect for President Obama, but to foster the hate that many of the R's have for him. Notice how Trump uses President Obama's middle name and how he says it?

Amazing. Coast Guard can interdict 510,000 pounds of just cocaine in the same area where Trump and Hesgeth are violating International Maritime Law, and they did it without a single death. www.news.uscg.mil/Press-Releas...
So Trump is stating that we will make enough money on tariffs to both pay down the National debt and possibly eliminate income tax.Not sure where he gets his figures, but the amount he quotes is literally 3 times the amount of total trade from various countries rooseveltinstitute.org/blog/tariffs...
I have no idea what to make of MTG. Going from diehard Trumper to being one of a very few R's that make some sense. Leopard changing her spots? Seeing the tide changing and fearing for her job in 26? Regardless, I will give her points for pissing off Trump. www.cbsnews.com/news/marjori...
It is often said that we are judged by the company we keep. In Trump's case, it should be by those he has pardoned. Don't think any of us rational folk are surprised by who he gives a get out of jail free card. www.propublica.org/article/trum...
Been gone a bit, but I am back. First order of biz is to ask you all to donate to your local food banks. Rising food prices due to tariffs, Government shutdown, and life just sucking for many has pushed Food Banks to the limit. And here come the holidays. donate.ctfoodshare.org/checkout?cid...

Trump,yet again is showing his love for Dictators. He has not condemned Vlad, and still believes Vlad will do a peace deal closer to what Trump wants ( but Ukraine will reject) and thinks that Kim still " loves " him. Nope, they are using the idiot. www.axios.com/2025/08/26/t...
Yesterday, a 22 year Army Vet was arrested as he burned a flag in protest to Trump's EO calling for it to be a crime.Yet that same EO acknowledges that when done,as a political protest,is protected by Freedom Of Speech. So, why the EO?Distract from the #Epsteinfiles? www.nytimes.com/2025/08/25/u...

The Department of Homeland Security is holding up more than $100 million preapproved dollars intended to help hurricane-battered North Carolina clean up storm damage and fix infrastructure, according to documents obtained by The Post.
This guy is either brave as f8ck or dumber than dog shit. Both times he professed ignorance on key issues. Hint here. Ignorance is not an excuse. A G.O.P. Congressman Faced Hometown Voters. It Wasn’t Pretty. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/05/u...
While Trump wastes millions on a military parade in DC, we're mobilizing everywhere else to show that organized people power is stronger than his authoritarian aspirations. app.sosha.ai/s/ym0nMwG3
Trump is defying courts and ignoring the Constitution. That's why I'm taking to the streets on No Kings Day for a nationwide day of defiance. app.sosha.ai/s/srOO6KNn
All the BS moves Trump & Co have pulled is all a distraction. They figure if the " flood the zone" with abuse of power, ignoring the Constitution, they can sneak this crap plus becoming an Authoritarian Government out of sight. So, we do our best to make others awate
No religion on earth would condone this level of indifference and hypocrisy; none, Nada, Zip!

Excuse me Mr. "President"? Not sure which word you fear the most. Diversity? Equity? or Inclusion? If this was funding to improve the life of let's say the Mar-A-Lago area, would it be illegal then? My bet is no. www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/...
Pretty sure Trump will not be pleased that one of his appointees is not kowtowing to him. Actually most aren't. www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

FYI, the VIX or volatility index pretty much measures risk. Also know as the fear index. It has triple since Trump took office, and is at its highest point since COVID. And we all know what happened then. www.google.com/search?q=vol...
No. The Trump Administration did not send this out on error. They are are saying that because of the pushback. There is a pattern here, and now we know how to fight Trump. Just like any bully, they lose their bravado when called out. www.reuters.com/world/trump-...
Going on record for this. Trump planned to release his tariffs knowing full well that the release will affect SECOND QUARTER numbers, and he will say how much of a genius he is. www.investopedia.com/what-to-expe...
It seems that the consensus (vast majority) of economists compare Trump's tariffs strategy as "playing Russian roulette" with a bullet in every chamber. I agree, and Dickwad in Chief pulled the trigger. www.nj.com/politics/202...
Not sure if this is " link bait" or them trying to do a " We warned you" preemptive strike. Regardless it is scary AF. 247wallst.com/investing/20...
Here are the States with expanded Medicaid. There will be A LOT of pissed off voters in those red States. Actually, just st A LOT of pissed off voters. www.kff.org/status-of-st....
I have seen reports as low as 1200 and as high as over 1600 rallies. I have seen an estimate of around 5.6 MILLION. What I have not seen is any reports of a SINGLE incident. That's the difference between us and Trumpers. www.axios.com/2025/04/03/h...
