Isn’t this the sort of thing the NRA & 2nd amendment folks scream about or do they only object if the ban applies to White GOP/MAGA people but by all means ban it for everyone else like transgender but also other LGBTQ folks, minorities & Liberals? 😡 www.cnn.com/2025/09/04/p...

i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.

Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"

The loss of funding has nothing to do with fiscal responsibility. It is purely because Trump does not like them speaking anything negative about him. The GOP is complicit in its destruction and further dummying down of Americans, considering they have knocked many’s IQs down already.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

One of the biggest threats to the U.S. if this happens. MAGA states need them the most because they don’t invest in disaster prep. Ending FEMA means Trump will just be selective to who he wants to help out. Trump says FEMA to be wound down after hurricane season - www.reuters.com/business/env...

reuters.comTrump says FEMA to be wound down after hurricane seasonPresident Donald Trump said on Tuesday he planned to start "phasing out" the Federal Emergency Management Agency after the hurricane season and that states would receive less federal aid to respond to natural disasters.

I think despite what Trump is doing, the pressure needs to ramp up for GOP congress. Trump doesn’t care but his GOP minions may be more vulnerable than they think. Pressure them to do the jobs and remove Trump and make them deal with the consequences of abandoning their constitutional duties.

So the AHole is touting more steel tariffs and welcoming a Japanese steel firm buying an American steel company if they make the steel here. But it is still a foreign firm making money off Americans which sounds nothing like America first. Having said that, it has been America last lately anyway.

Sadly, the current spineless Congress will just rubber stamp Trump’s tariffs because they are afraid of his bullying. To Steve Miller, this small step is what courts should be doing. The Administration is the one performing the coup. Will someone please lock his ass up. www.cnn.com/2025/05/28/b...
