Trump firing the career economist leading the Bureau of Labor Statistics after the bad jobs report on Friday has people saying "Wow, that's what dictators do!" Glad you are finally waking up to what we've been screaming about for months! Trump wants to be a tyrant. Now we must unite to STOP HIM!
Sad and fascistic.
Just a guess: There are more bugs in that 747 than in a New York City dive bar.

Trump to Harvard: Police your faculty, turn in rabble-rousing students, and kill DEI or else.

Overheard just now: We are paying so much attention to men turning into women that we aren’t seeing the U.S. turning into the USSR.
Here is a chilling explanation of Trump's tariff insanity.
An authoritative review of Trump's tariff lunacy from The Economist. It will cause economic growth to slow, possibly to recessionary levels. It will especially hurt Ohio auto manufacturers, farmers, and our logisics and distribution industry.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
― Theodore Roosevelt
Did you know that GOP budget resolution shockingly eliminates “$40 million in election security grant funding.” Why would Republicans want the 2026 election less secure? We know.

Economic blackout today! No purchases and no posting on Meta platforms. If you must buy something, buy it from a locally owned store and pay cash.
I'm hearing from experts around the world about the "global health massacre" caused by the Trump/Musk destruction of USAID. Millions of malnourished children left to starve. Babies with neural tube defects. Surveillance against bird flu set back.All this kills children just as wonderful as our own.
They're being mean to me! I'm gonna tell my mommy!! WAAAAH! (Pro tip: emails still work.) www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

RFK Jr doesn’t believe in vaccines so it is totally woke to get your flu shot. If you haven’t, please do.
The GOP might cost 700,000 Ohioans their healthcare and who knows how many elsewhere. Gotta have those tax breaks! signalcleveland.org/more-than-70...
David Brooks in today's NYT: The essence of Trumpism [is] to be unconcerned that people without a college degree die about 8 years sooner or that hundreds of thousands of Africans might now die of AIDS but to go into paroxysms of moral panic because of who competes in a high school girls' swim meet.
Thousands of investors in Trump’s crypto scheme lost $2 billion in just weeks while the Trump Organization racked up $100 million in trading fees.
Just so happens that the CFPB, which Trump is trying to kill, recently announced new regulations for the crypto industry.
