NOT ENOUGH is being made of the violent misogyny of the disappearing of the East Wing.

Or inept. But probably they just thought no one would notice the math isn’t about tariffs.
This was….five months ago
A reminder to reporters: Because Trump tariff numbers are made-up nonsense, using the phrase “reciprocal tariffs” is lying to your audience. The phrase itself is propaganda. They are not reciprocal.
Schumer & Jeffries should resign from leadership, they are not equipped to lead the opposition party against an authorarian regime.
The headlines SHOULD say something along the lines of:
For second time, Trump violates the law to help Putin, this time in bid to end democracy.
Many a woman will recognize this tone in the petty messages they get from exes trying to "catch" them or "punish" them for not being duly submissive in all interactions.

We are soon to be living under the operating system of King Rao. (A good read when it's only escapist dystopian fiction not a glimpse into a future state.)
How to stop Elon, according to Grok:
Recommendations from Musk's Grok on how to stop Elon's illegal activities in accessing data and firing workers:
Elon's management model in a nutshell, playing out across our government.
* flatter structures <--fire the middle managers
* strategic decision-making concentrated at the top <--Elon, Trump, cronies
* everything below optimized and executed by AI and specialized teams <--fire everyone else
Bad headline from Reuters and too many others. Vance was gaslighting the free world into rolling back regulations so that his puppetmasters Thiel and Musk have an easier time highjacking elections with their allies in Russia www.reuters.com/world/europe...
I use 5 Calls, super easy, no excuses. Inundating politicians with calls from constituents lets them know which issues to fight for in order to keep their jobs.
One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information. And do it for other departments too. Start showing voters what a Democratic government would look like--press conferences, speeches, all of it.
"You can't shoot values"?? What TF does that even mean? More to the point, does he have any idea what he is saying.
In the three weeks Elon Musk has been in charge of unilaterally slashing government spending, the U.S. government has paid one of his companies, SpaceX, more than $43 million.
i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country
Breakfast this morning, NPR on the smart speaker, spewing all kinds of unwanted news out of the current administration.
Son, 13, asks genuinely: Is this Fox News?
Me: No it's just actually the news, it's that bad
This is some straight up Nazi sh*# right here:
“We will support everyone at the federal, state and local levels who joins this critical mission to take back our communities... and use all available tools to address obstruction and other unlawful impediments to our efforts to protect the homeland.”
Can every other MAGA person please work with this woman's therapist?
"...a therapist had helped change her view of the attack by telling her she was “not a victim of Jan. 6; I was a volunteer.”
“I lost my critical thinking... Now I know it was a cult, and I was in a cult.”

Graph of US HOuse of Rep margins by party and year
Huh. It was Democrats running Congress with a wide margin back when “America was great.” And Republicans in the chaos before and after. Weird.
I try to remember to say this at the end of every year. If you buy my books, thank you. If you buy them as ebooks or audiobooks, thank you. If you buy them used, thank you. If you borrow them from a library, thank you. If you borrow them from a friend or steal them from an enemy, thank you. ❤️
