No ๐ŸšซDMโ€™s. I am a grandmother, finding gentleness in a sea of hate is not easy, but I find some every day. Love for animals. Hope for humanity. Democratic voter and thinker. I stand up for what is right. Old, but not out of my teens, in my mind ๐Ÿ˜ธ

yup.

thehandbasket.coRepublicans donโ€™t have a Nazi problemโ€”they are the Nazi problemA spate of recent revelations have shown the ideologies and their adherents are one and the same.

This weekโ€™s main story is about how more and more white nationalists, antisemites, and Nazi sympathizers seem to be integrating into the Republican Party, how some of them are currently running for office, and how old you can be for JD Vance to consider you โ€œa very young boy.โ€

I spend all day worrying about what to cover and making sure that important stories donโ€™t get left behind, and Politico is assigning three reporters to write a story to keep the police union happy? What a fucking joke.

El-Sayed on Trump's cognitive tests: "I went to medical school...In my neurology unit, I would have to give that MoCA exam...The only people that you give a MoCA test to are people who you worry may have cognitive deficits. By definition, if you're taking one of those tests, something's wrong."

Economics isnโ€™t necessarily a zero-sum game. But power is zero-sum. The more at the top, the less anywhere else. The fact is, wealth canโ€™t be separated from power. Power begets wealth and wealth begets power. To understand the system, we need to understand the cycle.
