America is spiraling into a dark time. We have lost our Constitutional protections. I hope Americans wake up before it's all over.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

There are several truly good pieces in today's Sunday Times Magazine. Including this one. It's worth a read. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/28/m...

Trump’s rhetoric about people attacking law enforcement officers rings a little hollow from someone who pardoned the criminals who killed police on Jan 6

A story about an evil man (Mike Arnold from Blanco, Texas) and a paramedic who was harmed because she didn't fall for the gaslighting. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/12/u...

For your reading enjoyment, or horror. We were, once upon a time, a nation that ascribed to the rule of law. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/30/m...

This is where Pam Bondi, Donald Trump and their inner circle want to go. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/05/o...

When people vote for Republicans, they vote against their neighbors, against children, against the disabled, against democratic history, and against science and humanity. It's unfortunate that too many Americans are impervious to the facts. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/01/u...

For America's sake, I hope they remember this when next they vote. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Only one conclusion you can draw from his statements.

Both sides are NOT the same.

Who in America would find this a surprise? Anyone who was even partially awake over the last ten years would know this to be true. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/14/u...

Are we officially a banana Republic now? www.npr.org/2025/09/06/n...

How much analysis does it take to determine that the United States is becoming more isolated, more confrontational, less collaborative and less cooperative with the world. The MAGA arrogance and stupidity will hurt us all. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/07/u...

Anyway here’s a baby trying on glasses.

I'm no historian but...

Meanwhile, did you see? A federal judge on Friday allowed the Trump admin and the Oklahoma AG to use his court to subvert democracy through a sham lawsuit manufactured to get rid of a pro-immigrant state law they don’t like without needing to go through the trouble of actually repealing the law.

After Trump and his incompetent advisors have burned all of America's bridges our economy will be in a terrible position. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/b...

OF Course They Did. That's what you do. When you are destroying a Country. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/30/b...

It's neglegent that Axios fails to point out that Peter Navarro has ZERO CREDIBILITY in regard to economic theory. Why do they publish inane comments from that person? www.axios.com/2025/08/31/t...

Well said.

Constituent: You talked about abuses in the medicare and medicaid system and I found interesting that the president pardoned someone that defrauded the medicaid system for $1.3 billion

Going to be wild to have Clarence Thomas and other members of the court write that even the appearance of impropriety is sufficient to allow the President to remove Federal Reserve members from office, and then head off to Harlan Crow’s yacht

Walz says Harris "would have been a fantastic president... we wouldn't wake up every day to a bunch of shit on TV. We would wake up to an adult w/ compassion & dignity doing the work, not a manchild crying about whatever is wrong with him. May his fat ankles find something today. Petty as hell."

The government investing directly in public companies is moving the US closer to China and Russia. This is a clear example of anticompetitive and dictatorial behavior. Policies should create level playing fields with fair and unbiased rules that are consistently and fairly enforced.

DJT. Making us less safe everyday. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/18/u...

So accurate.

Disturbing. On every level. Also another distraction from the criminality of the Trump Administration. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/08...

Just for those who may be a little confused: This is how an American president should treat Putin.

No surprise there. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/08...

Do you fully understand the word dictator? Scoop: White House hands down loyalty ratings for hundreds of companies share.google/E5sD3w8uzSLT...

Raskin: In any event, if he really cared about public safety in DC… he would not have pardoned 1600 insurrectionists and violent cop beaters on his first day in office. 

Shocker! apnews.com/article/trum...

Those Gestapo comparisons are so....spot on actually.

To be clear: - Masked thugs in the United States kidnapping people is wrong. There is no universe where this is justified. - Imposing tariffs that are a tax on Americans, and cause stagflation, shows incompetent economic understanding. And then blaming the Fed is also incompetent.

This isn't justice. This is one monster helping out another.

"in a lifeboat large enough for everyone, throwing others overboard and hoarding provisions does not show your worthiness to be captain." In an ad for a new book "Mutual Care," but also an accurate critique of the Republicans, Trump, and anyone who voted for them.
