RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.
Like clockwork.
On NJ Transit on the way home and the train just died.
Just another day/reminder of how “the richest and most powerful nation in the world” cannot do mass transit.
We can afford a war and build concentration camps, but not mass transit.
ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.
When he tries to act tough, remember his extreme courage in the face of rabid MAGAts.
That and too many who can stop it unwilling to do so. We've learned nothing.
"It could last six days, six weeks. I doubt six months."
— Donald Rumsfeld on the Iraq War (7 Feb 2003).
It’s not just that the Administration isn’t answering questions about Iran.
They’re lying.
I was 15 when we invaded Iraq and believed in BrIttany - I don’t recognize America now.

AOC: This is about actual crimes happening in front of us. This is about shredding the Constitution and plunging us into war. This is about taking crypto money and money laundering… So if you’re asking me if I’d support impeachment, I do
BREAKING:
A federal trade-court judge ordered the Trump administration to start refunding the more than $130 billion it collected in the global tariffs invalidated by the Supreme Court last month
Reminder that the US military budget is larger than the military spending of the next nine largest countries combined.
Over half goes to private defense contractors.
This is the military-industrial complex Eisenhower warned of — on steroids.

Trump: "Spain said we can't use their bases. We could use their bases if we want. We could just fly in and use it. Nobody is gonna tell us not to use it"
Not receiving consent and moving forward anyway is a consistent theme in his life — as E. Jean Carroll can attest
Remind me. Who else went on aggressively going into countries somewhere around a century ago?
AOC: He impulsively went in on Venezuela. He impulsively went in on Iran. It led to increased global instability and every time he’s done that, it has been consistent with a spike in what is happening with the Epstein files. I think that he feels existentially tied to it.
First, did Trump say thank you.
Second, how about them cards Donny?
Stop.
Stop feeding this false narrative.
LIEU: Did Amalia commit a crime?
NOEM: She did not. She's with her family
LIEU: The reason she's with her family is because she almost died in ICE detention until folks brought a lawsuit forcing her release
NOEM: Our federal detention centers are held to the highest standards in comparison to other detaining facilities
McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.
Remember those who want to sacrifice your blood at the altar of the orange rotten calf.
