Amendment 87 would cut taxes for 97% of Coloradans and raise them on the wealthiest 3%, netting over $2 billion for schools, healthcare, and childcare Prop 136 would freeze the current tax rate at 4.4% for everyone, including the wealthiest Coloradans Thanks to @kylec.bsky.social for the explainer

Hahah.

Trump promised his ballroom wouldn’t cost you a penny. Now, Senate Republicans are asking taxpayers to foot a $1 BILLION bill for it.

Same energy:

WE HAVE A CALIFORNIA PRIMARY PROBLEM Attention California voters and friends. Watch this, share it. Folks need to understand how our jungle primary can screw us if we’re not paying attention. There’s no separate Dem vs. Republican primary. It’s one pool, top two advance, period. 1/2

Victor Orbán’s removal sends a timely signal. Corrupt kleptocratic Christian nationalism was on the ballot in Hungary today — just as it will be on the ballots that Americans will cast in November. It was repudiated abroad — may it be repudiated here in November (and beyond).

While you're paying billions more at the gas pump, Trump's allies are cashing in.

Hell NO

Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

Convicted Felon Donald Trump attending today’s birthright citizenship arguments at SCOTUS is such a transparent attempt to intimidate the justices. But it just makes him look WEAK and PATHETIC. Trump reeks of desperation.

Truly. And those people sitting at that table should die of embarrassment and failure.

All the best people. Now we’re polluting the world with criminals.

Ugh, please, no Rahm Emanuel for President. Just no.

Jesus. These people are fucking terrifying.

Heads up women on the SAVE Act.

I kinda don’t care what Delta does until they stop participating in ICE flights.

This is sad for the US. Global leader to global loser with Trump.

What is the point of the Constitution if this criminal is not impeached and removed? Seriously.

The corruption is so mind boggling. Jail time for all of them.

He’s showing you who he is.

I wonder if these guys watched the Handmaids Tale all the way to the end?

No war! No kings! WTF America!

Where do they find these dumb women who are so quick to give away other women’s power.

It’s Freudian. Extreme wealth causes a psychopathology. It creates remorseless, conscienceless, stunted humans. Can’t let those people rule anybody or anything.

I’m no foreign affairs expert, but this is common sense. We obviously have an administration that has neither expertise nor common sense. Bumblers who have cursed our children’s children.

The man is, whatever his other faults, just way in over his head. Maybe Democrats should say that more often. The fact that he’s costing taxpayers a billion dollars a day on a war most of them didn’t want may be a good place to start. trib.al/PZf14Pr

He’s golfing after bombing children and raising your gas prices.

So America, you need help.

It takes @donnerkay.bsky.social, a woman from Mississippi, to write the column rapist-enabling women in DC like Maureen Dowd and Bari Weiss are too busy sucking up to patriarchy to do.

Weird!

FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?

Yes. Illegal. And that’s some evil stuff right there.

This should be illegal. I may have to halt paying my federal taxes until I can be sure my taxpayer money isn’t going into Trump’s or Jd Vance’s very own disgusting pocket.

In competitive authoritarianism (US right now) there's often a "loyal opposition" that's essential to the regime. They are so wedded to "decorum," they go along with rites & rituals that help regime prop up veneer of normalcy, undermining clear view of regimes actions & aims.

A 21-year-old Moroccan woman was beaten by her family when they found out she was a lesbian. She sought asylum in the US & Trump tried to deport her to Cameroon, where homosexuality is illegal. Sometimes we get distracted by how incompetent our country has gotten, we forget how evil it has gotten.

This enrages me. Anybody who is ok with this kind of monstrous behavior needs some therapy. And a lot of it.

What a bunch of aholes.

Wow

last month the US secretly deported nine asylum seekers to cameroon where they’ve been trapped at a local government-owned compound until they agree to return to their home countries where they face persecution and death. none have history of violence.

Heartbreaking.

This is what a rigged economy looks like.

A scholarship and a Congressional leadership position.

This is so outrageous.

Breaking WSJ: The highly classified whistleblower complaint against Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is related to a conversation intercepted last spring in which two foreign nationals discussed Jared Kushner, according to U.S. officials familiar with the matter.

This pos incel is definitely going to die alone in an institution having his diapers changed by brown women.

Yes, this.

oh my god.

Is this the invasion? Russian boots on the ground? And why don’t any Senators know about it?
