When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

Trying to stay positive in a crazy world. I’m sewing, buying plants and planting them in the garden and reading some novels and of course I’m hitting the gym so I stay healthy.

So unemployment up. Jobless claims up. Inflation up. GDP down. Dollar plummeting. More wars abroad. Soldiers on the streets at home. By every objective metric, this administration is a disaster.

Bass: If you want to go back in time, where was LA on Thursday? Fine, peaceful. Nothing was happening. The minute ICE rolled into town, that's when the chaos started and then add to that—bringing in federal troops.

WTF? Trump is now threatening the American people. He warned protesters to stay away from his birthday/military parade in D.C. this Saturday, claiming anyone who shows up to protest “hates our country” and will be met with “very heavy force.” This is authoritarian behavior, plain and simple.

The folks hollering about “family values” are out here tearing families apart with unlawful ICE raids, militarized police, & the weaponization of government. All while ripping away food & healthcare from working-class families. Are the family values in the room with us?

8. Cut 8% a year from defense, fire the smartest generals...and just trust Russia. 9. Instead of respecting the opposite politcal party, just call them pedophiles. 10. Kill jobs, increase inflation, sink stocks, and generally wreck the economy.

. 2. Start a tariff war with our largest and best global trading partners. 3. Walk away from all mutual defense treaties, especially NATO. 4. Screw Ukraine and show the world that the USA can't be trusted. 5. Abandon "American Values" and make it all about what we can grab.

6. Stop winning hearts by feeding and healing. Shut down USAID. 7. Gut all government agencies, especially help for people who are struggling. 8. Cut 8% a year from defense, fire the smartest generals...and just trust Russia.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago. But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today. He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

I've come to realize that Trump's approach mirrors Steve Bannon's playbook, which relies on creating chaos to project strength. However, this tactic actually reveals weakness and an inability to govern effectively.

Elon Musk now has access to your Social Security number. The world’s richest man has gained access to the confidential personal information of every taxpayer in the United States. It’s illegal, he needs to be arrested!!

On Air Force One from Las Vegas to Miami, President Trump says Palestinians in Gaza should be relocated. “I’d like Egypt to take people. I’d like Jordan to take people,” he tells reporters.”We just clean out that whole thing.”

The entire MAGA Playbook is to provoke a reaction and then claim the victims or too sensitive (snowflakes) or it was a joke. Rather than be outraged, don’t take the bait and simply laugh in their faces for being the stupid little bullies that they are. They can’t lead. They can only oppose.
