All of us - not just those on Medicaid or food stamps - will be directly paying for the costs of the billionaire tax breaks in the Trump budget package. Here's how.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

WATCH: “Like we saw with the Iraq War, You can’t declare this successful now. You have to see what happens next.” The Holler’s Justin Kanew says it’s important to remember what happened in Iraq — and remain skeptical of the reasons Trump attacked Iran. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DLNYncZ...

“The Trump we saw address the nation last night was very high. Let’s just get that out of the way at the beginning. We drug test many federal employees but somehow let the President of the United States unilaterally declare war while out of his mind.” open.substack.com/pub/noelcasl...

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

Happy Martha Stewart's day to eat a hamburger and a hotdog to all who celebrate

Here’s the article on which this viral post is based. It’s true. (If anything, there are even more ghoulish details in the article itself.) www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

@ocasio-cortez.house.gov Why in hell is DOGE at NCUA and FDIC!? They’re not funded by taxes. This is how you get a run on banks. This needs to stop!!!

In December, I wrote a piece about people's declining ability to process information, to distinguish fact from opinion, etc, and how this might soften us up to become overly-dependent on AI. You could read it, but this guy just summarised it in two tweets!

That is exactly true.

Here you go, everyone. This the Project 2025 Tracker, highlighting each objective and which ones they have completed Stunning to see it laid out like this. Even more stunning how many federal departments & agencies they have already sealed. www.project2025.observer

Unreal.

Seeing an unelected South African billionaire in the Oval Office giving a briefing next to the mute and demented US President is jarring to say the least… They are pulling back the curtain to let us all know who is in charge.

As relevant as ever.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

This might be hard to hear, but: We are not at the beginning of a war. We are near the end of a war many didn’t realize was being fought. This is what losing feels like. Start fighting. ___ You can start by joining @indivisible.org and/or by reading: survivethetyrant.infy.uk/SurviveTheTy...

RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

Another FBI leader standing up for the rule of law “Today, we find ourselves in the middle of a battle of our own, as good people are being walked out of the FBI and others are being targeted because they did their jobs in accordance with the law and FBI policy." James Dennehy, FBI NY Field Office

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Happy thanksgiving
