I think the groundwork for free daycare and Medicare for all needs to be started so that with Democrat majorities in Congress and a Democrat as president, we can hit the ground running and finally accomplish these highly needed programs to assist most Americans, and reduce income inequality.

Reminder: ICE was only created in 2003. We can and will go back to a country without this paramilitary.

Are Congressional Republicans going to sacrifice young Americans and Iranian men, women, and children to enable Trump to stay in office and firm up his dictatorial wet dream?

So we're setting up our 21st century Auschwitz, Sobibor, Treblinka, Dachau, Bergen-Belsen, Majdanek, Belzec, Celmno, Buchenwald, and Natzweiler-Struthof. My friends laughed at me and said I was a Soyboy and had TDS, when I predicted this in 2018.

Yes, it should.

I'm reading "1984" by George Orwell, and I want to know how Orwell's "The Party," is a dead on match for MAGA? How did he know?

I wonder what the Vegas odds are that I'll be purged from the voter rolls, since my state has shared my voter information with the Trump administration. They'll go up because I've voted straight ticket Democrat since 2014, and they'll go down since I live in a bloody red state.

The people standing up to resist ICE, are doing exactly what's NECESSARY to shut down the Trump SS. youtube.com/shorts/9FMu1...

Who is responsible for the murder of protesters in Minneapolis? Donald Trump His cabinet ICE (including the triggermen) Republicans in congress The maga base Trump voters

Damn, I wish my Trump voting friends and family could finally admit how batshit criminally insane is their pedophile mafia don president, and the danger Putin's mole represents.

Was the Venezuelan oil pirated from seized tankers really sold and the money out in a Swiss Bank account controlled by Trump? I've read this, but it seems too egregiously corrupt for the dictator ascendancy level Trump is currently occupying.

I found this very interesting perspective thread on FB.

Denmark/Greenland will let us do anything we want militarily to protect our interests in Greenland with current and abandoned US military bases. We can move any assets we want there. So all the arguments about security are BS. Trump wants to OWN Greenland, not protect it.

Damn, I hope command officers in the military tell Trump to fuck off, if he tells them to seize Greenland. They are the Department of Defence, not a colonial army/navy built to conquer other nations. It will get really fucked up if our military has to fight Nato allied forces.

Facebook is such a sewer. There are so many hateful people showing their glee at the death of the woman in Minneapolis. Maybe with all of the hate in this country we deserve the dystopian world maga is delivering to the world.

"The next Democratic president has to be ruthless... [they] should run on a plan to prosecute Elon Musk... there has to be accountability... the [next] Democratic president has to put the fear of God into their Republican opponents" My advice to the Dems. Full discussion: zeteo.com/p/the-venezu...

I never would have thought that WW3 would be US vs NATO and the EU, and that Russia would be on our side, and our other allies would sit this one out. I hope this evil nonsense doesn't end up killing my grandsons or causing the extinction of humankind.

Hakeem Jefferies and Chuck Schumer are not rising to the moment, they are too quiet with all the crimes being committed by Trump and his cronies. These two need to be replaced before the midterms.

It was a bad day for Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Taiwan, Vietnam, Philippines, Panama, Greenland, Canada, & Mexico. We'll see what happens inside a decapitated Venezuela.Trump won't be restrained by the Constitution & won't restrain Putin or Xi.

"There is a land of the living and a land of the dead and the bridge is love, the only survival, the only meaning." ~Thornton Wilder - The Bridge of San Luis Rey

After maga is out of power. Democrats need to make "norms" the law, to undo the damage to institutions Trump has destroyed/damaged, to investigate and swiftly prosecute criminal acts and corruption. We not only are going to need the House, the presidency, we'll need 60+ senators to get this done.

Waking up from her afternoon nap with a monster yawn.

Medicare for all is the 🐘 in the room of that senate health care floor debate. Making a broken system less bad isn’t a real solution.

Do we have to go through this AGAIN? We spent all of 2009-10 listening to experts as they educated the voters about why this bullshit doesn't work! And Marshall's a doctor! It's nothing new. They've done the same with Medicare & Social Security for almost a century.They never quit.

She might appreciate the stream of consciousness approach. Or she she wants to chew on the book........Yeah it was the chewing.

#Pinks #ProudBlue #MomSky Wow. Trump’s regime is going after any Americans who do not support Trump as “domestic terrorists”. There is a paid “tip line” to turn your neighbors in with.

Sickening — “Massachusetts college student (Any Lucia Lopez Belloza, a 19 year-old business major at Babson College) deported to Honduras after attempting to fly to Texas to surprise her family for Thanksgiving…” www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Our putin sucking president has put forward a cowardly surrender plan to stop the Russian war against Ukraine. It is unworthy of the office of the presidency & EVERY American and foreign governments should embarrass with mocking statements trump and this cabinet.

I guess I've been under a rock, but I wash today years old when I learned Silvio Dante was Steven Van Zandt.

I believe nearly all who still support the orange fecal mound in the White House know EXACTLY what he is, and support him anyways. It's a shameful timeline we're occupying.

Okay, so Senate Democrats are feeble minded fools. Now that the government is open when is lil mikey gonna swear in Grijalva?

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

My health care premium is going up twice as much as our social security checks will increase. My property taxes are increasing as well. Trump's presidency and corporate greed is bankrupting seniors.

Quiet time Monday:

Trump’s voters have become like the members of the administration, delighting in the crassness and obscenity that pours out of the president and his circle whenever they are challenged. But policies suffer and the public is poorly served. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Even for Trump World, this is a shocking outrage. Everything about this—from LEOs threatening, then arresting this citizen (who committed no crime), the judge setting a mind-bogglingly inappropriate bond, then delaying the hearing five more weeks—is legally and morally wrong, and wholly un-American.

The maga candidate for the 7th US House district in Tennessee didn't even bother to show up and debate other candidates for the job. Matt Van Epps is just another hide from constituents maga republican, because all he offers is to be another bootlicking trump sycophant, supporting project 2025.

Yoshinobu Yamamoto pitching an awesome complete game two, putting the Dodgers up 2-0 in the NLCS heading to Los Angeles. I love LA.

Is it slander or defamation to say, "I think the president is a pedophile?"

It seems to me that SCOTUS and the military are the last institutions that have a chance to end our slide into a completely autocratic state. And I'm not comfortable that either have the desire or the will to stand up to the Trump/Maga coup d'état.

Democrats need to stand, once and for all, for Single Payer Universal Coverage healthcare. Make it not just a pie in the sky aspiration, but a solemn vow. With a majority in the House and a supermajority in the Senate, a bill needs to be set before a president to sign.

There is no way to take ANYONE serious who supports the completely "untethered from reality" Trump.

I saw 'The Kite Runner,' 'The Catcher in the Rye,' and 'The Giver' on a banned book list. You have to be a real fragile cupcake to ban these books from adults. 'The Giver' and 'The Catcher in the Rye' are fine for school libraries. I can see keeping young readers under 14 from 'The Kite Runner.'

Alright alright alright, 4-0 in the playoffs! I hope this continues. Go Dodgers!

Reading 'Hard Times: An Oral History of the Great Depression' by Studs Terkel published in 1970, and the interview with Julia Walther has relevance to today's current events. She ponders the likelihood of a fascist regime coming to power in the US, and why it could happen.

“Fascism is a political system built on control, fear, and loyalty to a strong leader. Fascism attacks democracy.” A quick primer on fascism and anti-fascism:
