The most pathetic group of people on the planet are those who got virtually everything they could ever want from two American presidents in a row, from different parties, and they're still mad because they have bumped up against the limits of American patronage.

Inflation is at a three-year high. Everything costs more ā groceries, gas, healthcare, a plane ticket. The math is simple. Every American dollar spent overseas on war is a dollar that couldāve been spent here at home to pay for a dignified life. It's time we change the equation.

It's not inexplicable. Trump promised to make everyone rich and prosecute their enemies, while Democrats didn't actually have a candidate until late July.

People keep saying gutting the VRA and Trump were reactions to the first black President being elected but this is all shit that conservatives have been obsessed with doing ever since the VRA originally passed, along with dismantling the Great Society and the New Deal.

NEWāI got an exclusive excerpt from a USAID whistleblower's new book that made me gasp multiple times. It details Trump's dismantling of the humanitarian aid agency & his team/DOGE's shocking ignorance to public health. 'Into the Wood Chipper' by Nicholas Enrich is out tomorrow. Read excerpt here:

If you're trying to raise awareness on this issue, saying "Citizens United" is sub-optimal. Say "unlimited money in elections" or "removed donation limits." Saying you want to get rid of united citizens automatically confuses people who have never heard of the case.

The only way we're going to get to "comprehensive immigration reform" is with a general amnesty of unauthorized immigrants in the country. If Reagan can do it, so can we.

Once you believe that empathy can be toxic or that compassion is a finite resource you're only a short distance from being able to excuse or ignore murder ... particularly when you don't agree with, understand, or identify with the victim.

Allow me to connect some dots for you: Too much of the world currently relies for its basic functions on resources which must be continuously extracted. You burn that oil one time and oops, now you need more. Geopolitical horrors are, in fact, one of the reasons we need to move to renewables ASAP.

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

1. At Charlie Kirk's vigil just now, DNI Tulsi Gabbard just invoked MLK Jr.'s line, "Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that." She insisted Kirk "lived" by that line. Unclear how Kirk would've felt about that comparison, since he decried MLK as āawfulā and "not a good person."

Never forget that one of the big reasons that social media is so heavily slanted towards bad moderation and ignoring violent rhetoric from the right is that they did have automated tools that deplatformed far right rhetoric, but they turned it all off because almost all Republicans got caught too
