Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

This is not surprising. We have certainly seen a lot of fake stuff, but to use it this way is beyond the pale. The result is no one believes anything anymore. Dangerous.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor 3) Donors make huge profit 4) Repeat We must get big money out of politics. It is the root of our dysfunction.

Social Security benefits are going up by 2.8 percent next year. But Medicare premiums are going up by 11.6 percent. And the cost of food is skyrocketing, too. Trumpflation is stealing your hard earned benefits.

The Supreme Court’s majority right wing indicated in oral arguments that they think racism is over on the same day that the vice president defended the “I love Hitler” guy, and that the NYT reported that the current administration plans to accept only white, English-speaking refugees.

It is pretty galling that the Supreme Court spent four years telling Biden "you can't do that without Congress" then allowed Trump to seize a once-unthinkable amount of power from Congress within nine months and concentrate law-making authority almost entirely in the executive branch.

I’ve had it with the “Antifa are terrorists” crap. Most of us can look back one or two generations in our families and find US veterans who fought (and died) fighting, you guessed it, fascists. We all should be against fascism wherever it is, even here.

The health care tax credit is a big deal. Without it: 4 million people lose their health insurance Premiums double for more than 20 million Americans One example: An older couple making $85K could see their premiums skyrocket to $25K per year—almost 30% of their income.

With ACA tax credits, a 60-year-old couple making $85,000 pays ~$7,000 for their annual premium. Without ACA tax credits, the same couple could be forced to pay nearly $30,000. I know Republicans only speak "billionaire"—but middle-class families can't afford this.

Absolutely right. But we are not letting it go.

has reported that Trump is furious that despite all his distractions (Amelia Earhart, anyone?), we want those Epstein files released.

The largest group in ICE detention is now immigrants with no criminal record, with more than 16,500 currently being held. Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about going after the “worst of the worst.” This was never about legal immigration. It was always about cruelty.

I am just going to keep posting that the TX governor recently pardoned a political murderer. The dude texted "I'm going to shoot protestors", then went and shot a Black Lives Matter protester. He was convicted in a jury trial. Hard to find a more blatant example of celebrating political violence.

Gov. Greg Abbott pardons Daniel Perry, veteran who killed police brutality protester in 2020
A Travis County jury sentenced Perry to 25 years in prison last year, prompting Abbott to ask the state parole board to review his case.
