People are dying

Q: "A 75 year old Cuban national died in ICE custody. He had lived in the U.S. for 60 years...Is there anything you can tell us about that?" Border Czar Tom Homan: "People die in ICE custody. People die in county jails. People die in state prisons."

1/ If Justice Barrett thinks we need to go back to what the Founding Fathers intended, I’ve got news for her. Their biggest concern was avoiding tyranny. So they created 3 branches of gov’t & divvied up the power the people (that’s us) were allowing the gov’t to use to create order for all of us.

Under grilling by Jon Ossoff, Russ Vought repeatedly refuses to admit that it was a mistake to fire the federal employees who oversaw the safety of the nuclear stockpile (a mistake the administration acknowledged when they had to scramble to hire them back)

On Hannity tonight, Fox News’ National Security Correspondent Jennifer Griffin reports that it’s not clear whether the U.S. was able to destroy Iran’s nuclear site at Isfahan—despite Trump’s claim that all three sites have been “completely and totally obliterated.”

Anna Bower@annabower.bsky.social

President Trump: “We have completed our very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan.”

5 months in: Less than 2 months after “Taco,” 2 weeks after the world’s richest man called him a pedophile… 1 week after his failed military birthday parade & the No Kings protests… 24 hrs after he was finally ordered to free Mahmoud Khalil… …he’s bombing Iran. That’s how scared they are.

Fuck off with that. The GOP will pass or not pass their nazi shit because they won the Presidency and a majority in both houses of congress. Blaming Dems for GOP fuckery is the stalest bullshit on the planet. Those people could all have been awesome & we still don't have the votes. Why lie?

If China or Russia deported a US Citizen to a N Korean Gulag for life, without a trial or criminal charge, can you imagine. Yet here we are justifying to the whole world that we are a nation of law and order. We are barbarians. Third world or worse. DO NOT COME HERE. EVER. We are N Korea.

Imagine if the US and Russia had agreed on a full 30-day ceasefire and Ukraine had balked. If Zelensky had said “I’m only going to stop attacks on energy infrastructure and nothing else,” Trump would have had a fit. But when that’s Putin’s position, Trump pretends Russia wants peace.

Latino guy stops me at the light. Waves his fist in the air and says Go Trump. ( In Response to My Anti-Trump bumper sticker ). I said “you look Latino.” He said yes. I said “Trump hates brown people.” He said “ I’m not brown.” I said “Oh yes you are.” And I put up my window

My thoughts exactly! They have been using people for decades now and it’s time people wake up and realize that, they can just look at what is happening now and look back and say you know what they did nothing but fuck people over. The time to wake up and smell the coffee is now.

I have a feeling that he is doing it because closing the government will last forever & the media will blame Democrats. The public will stop talking about Musk and concentrate on the shutdown. I don’t agree but I think this is why he’s doing it

I’m a no on this bad “CR." R's left Dems no good road on government funding. They forced a choice between two bad MAGA options – both would harm the American people and give away the power of Congress to Trump. That danger is where our focus has to be.

The war in Ukraine is not just a fight for sovereignty, but a battle against the global rise of oligarchical capitalism, with the future of democracy and economic justice at stake, writes kellerconsulting founder Graden Keller in his op-ed.
