trump's solution for his bad actions is to fire the people who report the data that show his actions are bad. When reality differs from your desires, believe reality. congress: Impeach & remove this deranged, criminal conman now. It's on congress & scotus www.nytimes.com/live/2025/07...

The labels Conservative/Liberal have lost any ideological meaning. I suggest new labels Irresponsible/Responsible Callous/Caring Unreliable/Reliable Selfish/Altruistic Criminal/Citizen Let's elect people who demonstrate the latter and not the former.

Administration is: Criminal Corrupt Cruel Incompetent Amateurish Morally Bankrupt Racist Despotic Fascist & many other terms. Now add certifiably insane for even considering this. Impeach trump & sycophants now. Congress - when will you stand up for USA? www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

This post by Jim Stewartson is chilling - to say the least. It is also insightful as to what is happening in real-time. trump (and the people behind trump) are moving fast. The mid-terms won't come soon enough to fix this. Impeachment now is essential. www.mind-war.com/p/i-asked-ch...

Received this in email on Jul 3 @ 8:17 EDT. Appears to be legit. My wife received same. So, SSA is using private info for lobbying purposes. See Alt Text for additional info. This use of federal govt agencies to spread misleading propaganda is infuriating & concerning. Question everything.

8.2 billion people 195 countries ~ 10 million people with govt power/influence 3,000 billionaires 30,000 centi-millionaires 10,033,000 with major wealth/power 8,189,967,000 from near death to very well off When are the 99.88% of us going to say enough is enough? We could all live well if ....

The damage being done to: our population, our country's world standing, our economy, our personal safety, our health, our planet, & so many other things, is incalculable. How can we let 1 man do this? We need more than 3.5% to end this ASAP. robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-pol...

This is a great idea! Don't just use the answers in candidate campaigns. Post the answers on X, on substacks, on any media consumed by trump voters, on letters to the editor, and in any other way that gets the attention of voters of all persuasions.

Bluesky has overtaken its flailing rival X in hosting posts related to new academic research, indicating the platform is fast becoming the go-to place for scholars to share their work. I like the picture they put at the top of the article. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

govt cannot eliminate waste & fraud if courts bar very agency with expertise & designated mission of curtailing such waste & fraud - govt rooting out possible fraud, waste is in public interest. government cannot flout the law to do so - judge doge has no expertise www.nytimes.com/2025/05/02/u...

Conduct like this is part of why gov spending is up and services are down. trump and sycophants are stealing our tax dollars and harming all of us. Impeach now. wapo.st/4lYd8E1

Long read but important Violence, threats, intimidation as political weapon needs to be punished severely. Free speech can say someone should be impeached but threats of violence go beyond free speech - it is assault. If done by gov. employees (musk) fire them. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

question is whether Fed can make rate decisions without political interference if trump bullies Fed ... it would be chaos. trump wants cheap money & strong growth. Surest path to those outcomes involves getting rid of the tariffs and leaving the Fed alone. www.theatlantic.com/economy/arch...

Conduct of lawyers working for trump admin is bad and getting worse. Courts and opposing lawyers need to call out this conduct and file complaints with a state disciplinary board where warranted. Need to get them sanctioned/disbarred. Long past time to make trump lawyers fear for their careers.

Just had to repost this. It's a small island of sanity in the dystopian nightmare we're being subjected to. It reminds me of my long gone Franklin who was just like this kitten. Franklin was my watch kitty for 18 years.

Congress defund DOGE - it is a threat to our national security and is costing, not saving, taxpayer money

"trump administration is using personal data normally protected .. with the goal of removing [immigrants] from their housing and the workforce" HUD working on rule to ban mixed-status households Push is across agencies - SSA moved people to death list Congress defund DOGE! wapo.st/44u84kr

Great suggestion. Fully support.

Voters: We are the board of directors for our governments. Time to take action. Do Not Fund, Vote Out, Call Out & Shame: any politician that supports anything proposed by this administration. Reverse the gerrymandering Repeal voter suppression laws Sweep it clean Incinerate culpable incumbents

musk/miller/trump are essentially doing a private equity takeover of our country. They're breaking it up, selling off pieces to their cronies, firing employees, outsourcing to their cronies, paying themselves and leaving us with the resulting debt. We need a poison pill for government takeovers

@nytimes.com @washingtonpost.com @latimes.com @chicagotribune.com @dallasnews.com @seattletimes-rss.bsky.social Call a lie a lie. Call illegal or unconstitutional actions crimes. Report their crimes to a state AG for prosecution. Serve your readers not your profits for a while. HELP US!

@captmarkkelly.bsky.social @gallego.senate.gov I hope by now, you've finally decided that bipartisanship with incumbent republicans is **DEAD**. Do not vote on anything that incumbent republicans want to do. Block all trump nominations. Oppose & resist in any way possible.

@krismayes.bsky.social @katiehobbs.bsky.social If any federal agency employee takes an AZ resident into custody without a signed warrant, file AZ state kidnapping charges against those people. Then prosecute them to the fullest extent possible under AZ law.

Now that SSA is listing some immigrants in the SSA master death file, it's possible anyone could be flagged by intention or error. This would cause immediate and serious financial harm. If you might need help, make sure you designate someone you trust as a Representative Payee so they can help you

Shame Them! In WWI, women in the UK used a white feather to shame non-enlisting men. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_f... We need a new symbol - orange or yellow feather? trump is shameless but trump enablers should be shamed for all posterity. Other ideas on how to do this very welcome.

It's looking like we are all going to be a lot poorer because it's not just tariffs. It's theft of everything that trump and cronies can grab, grift, or extort.

"Truth is never, never with those who hold power. The truth is with everyone else." Timothy Snyder Truth is also never with someone who wants to suppress the viewpoints of others. Truth is like a mountain. Look all around it before deciding what is truth. snyder.substack.com/p/civil-righ...
