The United States is hungrier, sicker and poorer under Donald Trump's presidency.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Daft! I haven't heard that in years. youtube.com/shorts/3aXNn...

Repeat, repeat! ICE was a mistake that could easily be reversed! Use that money for healthcare, science, or education.

. Putin is sitting in Moscow and claims his army has captured a city that the Ukrainian president is personally visiting. There are cowardly tyrants and there are brave, elected leaders, and it is disastrous that the President of the US favors the first group! SLAVA UKRAINI! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

The repression of Palestine solidarity activism, violent Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids on immigrant communities, and censorship of the press in the US mean the country's civic freedom ranking has been downgraded to "obstructed" status, the Johannesburg-based Civicus Monitor said.

We all know Clarke's "sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" Well we have corollary:

Trump and Republicans are ripping away the Very SOUL of America. 🇺🇸. Be Careful of what you Vote For. Either Vote in every election or Face Civil War from within. 😱😱😱😡😡⚖️🇺🇸🇺🇸🗳️🗳️🗳️🤔👏😎

Haven't seen my brother in years. I miss him, & we may now be too old to take the long trip. He's an American citizen who is reasonably concerned that if he comes here to see his family, he'll be kidnapped on the street. We're at war, all right. The enemy is in the White House. The world watches.

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

Ding ding ding 🚨👇

Why are the tax payer funded police not protecting the tax paying public against ICE terrorists..

The USA has been fundamentally wrong for a long time. We praise millionaires who don't pay a living wage to their employees, and criticize those same employees who work two jobs to make ends meet as "lazy," bc they still need SNAP to get by?! We see healthcare as a "privilege," not a right. We suck!

There must be something fundamentally wrong with a country that allows someone to become this obscenely rich while condemning countless others to poverty and starvation

At the risk of sounding more combative than I mean to, I think the point is that these attacks are mass murder, no matter the cargo they're bearing or where it's bound.

www.nytimes.com/2025/12/04/u... So, if Trump doesn't like my opinions, my shoes, or my makeup, he can order me shot. I dunno, but to me, that seems a bit over the top

When the U.S. commits war crimes, acts of war, and meddles in the internal affairs of other countries, it jeopardizes our national security because it invites retaliation and sets precedence for others to follow suit.

Hegseth said that warriors in the US army would be unfit for polite society. Looks like he's intent on making them just that by getting rid of all of the ones who ARE fit for polite society. He wants men who will murder on command. #unfitforpolitesociety #murderoncommand

Even if there were drugs on those boats — which nobody has proven — the penalty isn’t death. You don’t get executed at sea for suspicion.

As a veteran who served in intelligence, I want to introduce you to EXORDS: the execute order from the President to SecDef. This allows 60 days operations under the War Powers Act. The President must advise Congress and gain approval to continue. No EXORD was sent to Congress. This is illegal

Clean tech spending may hit record high in US this year—DESPITE the political climate. A structural shift: the transition is increasingly independent from temporary political will. Falling costs, long-term investment cycles & state-level momentum are driving growth. www.forbes.com/sites/curren...

Sadly relevant today.

I’ve never been a “defund the police” type of guy. I believe that police are necessary, despite their flaws. But ICE is different. I am 100% behind ending their existence and prosecuting every single one of them. ICE must go. End of discussion.

"Even as Mr. Trump assured the public in July that the ballroom would not touch the existing structure, he already had approved plans to demolish the East Wing..." [https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/29/us/politics/trump-white-house-ballroom.html] Another lie in the service of vulgarity.

Hello- excellent point!!

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

If #trump can ban immigration from a particular country based on the actions of a single citizen from that country… We should not allow anyone from Queens to hold the office of the Presidency… Effective immediately. #Dumptrump

The era we are living in offers too many illustrations of greed, narcissism, and hatefulness. But I still believe we can recommit ourselves to serving the common good of all Americans. [Artwork by Jennifer Bloomer]

The problem with ICE is not that it's targeting people who aren't criminals. The problem with ICE is that it's an unaccountable secret deportation police. It cannot be reformed under a better president. It can be made less terrible, but the instrument of repression remains for the next tyrant.

REMINDER: trump is not innocent, he was just elected president.

Place National Guard in harm’s way for no good reason. Two members are tragically and unnecessarily shot. The reckless regime’s response: We’re sending 500 more National Guard troops! What a disgrace.

Another day, another TEN missed opportunities for the DNC to speak on behalf of Dems about the abomination of the day. Mark Kelly shouldn’t have to defend himself alone. The DNC, the national Dem PARTY should be speaking up for him and the other members of Congress all over the place. WHYYYYY

I keep saying this because I can't -believe- that all grownups don't know it: If you hear a rattle, look for a snake. If you hear someone say, over and over, "frankly," "to tell the truth," "I gotta be honest," they are LYING. They lie; they think you lie; they are concerned to pacify you.

When Trump was asked about the release of the Epstein files, he called one reporter "piggy" and said another was "being insubordinate." When Trump saw a video calling on the military to follow the constitution, he called for the death of the Democrats who made the video. He's a tyrant.

No excuses. Disband ICE. Arrest the terrorists and their bosses. Empty the concentration camps and jail those responsible. Restore our SNAP and our healthcare and jail those who stole them from us, who violated their oaths to do so. End fascism. End plutocracy. We The People won’t stand for it.

As a resident of a Raleigh suburb I’d like to say “Immigrants make us great, Christians love their neighbors, and patriots oppose ICE.”

The first two hours of Ken Burns's "The American Revolution" didn't disappoint.

I don't know why we still call them ICE and treat them as a legitimate organization. They are an armed Militia and should be designated as a terrorist group. No other legal force in America wears masks and strips people of due process. They are a terrorist organization

Pretend there’s a war on (there isn’t). Pretend drug traffickers are terrorists (they’re not). Pretend overdoses are armed foreign attacks (they’re not). Pretend “the president says so” means Congress has no role (it doesn’t). Voila, legal. When factual reality is irrelevant, any law can apply.

You would think that the 8 GOP Senators who are SO OUTRAGED that Jack Smith subpoenaed their phone records that they want $1 million compensation would bring him in to testify IN A PUBLIC HEARING to explain why he did this. But no, they don’t want to do that. I wonder why?

When Big Oil companies claim to be partners in climate solutions, remember: they are lying. As the climate crisis intensifies, Chevron is once again "increasing investments in oil and gas exploration," Reuters reports. www.reuters.com/markets/comm...
