To all the radical women who have made the world better, especially those women who radicalized us, thank you.

Trump moves to undo tax rule that Biden said would bring in $100 billion The Trump administration signaled a plan Friday to revoke a two-year-old tax rule designed to crack down on an arcane but highly lucrative tax avoidance tactic used by some of the largest and most com...

They call it β€œrolling back a rule.”
What it is: another gift to the rich.

They move the same asset through shell companies and erase their taxes again and again.

You work, you pay. No loopholes for you.

The wealthy cheat in daylight and call it policy.

Call it what it is.

Legalized theft.

Civil rights group documents 70 "modern-day lynchings" across 7 states "The moment a case is ruled a suicide, it's no longer investigated as a potential homicide," JULIAN founder says.

70 modern-day lynchings.

70.

Renee Good was also shot at point-blank range through her side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger

Alex Pretti wasn’t in a car, but he too was shot at point-blank range by an ICE agent who was in no danger

It seems every time ICE kills someone they lie to cover up shooting innocent people

It seems important to point out that the "GOP's traditional strength on the economy, national security, and immigration" has always been a fiction that only existed in the media.

Trump and MAGA have committed many atrocities

Family separation

ICE beating, shooting and killing people

Dismantling USAID-which has led to thousands of deaths

Slashing $1 trillion from Medicaid-which will kill thousands more

But the school bombing in Iran is particularly inhuman-even for them

Starbucks has committed 400+ documented labor law violations since 2021 - more NLRB cases than any other private employer in recent years. NLRB judges found 'egregious and widespread misconduct.' Workers are striking over unresolved violations.

The video of a United States Senator joining the violent removal of U.S. marine from a hearing and hideously breaking his arm in a door is an example of what has been unleashed in this country. They’re tapping in to get in on the violence.
And then he bragged about it on X later.

Republicans are pushing the SAVE America Act to choke off the vote. Passports to register. National photo ID to vote. Database purges to wipe out voters. Millions of citizens silenced so the GOP can cling to power.
We see it. We stop it.

I haven't said anything about this before, bc in the grand scheme of horrors this only rates as an inconvenience, but since others are experiencing it:

Just three days after CBP arrested me for filming them outside Broadview on 9/27, my TSA Pre & Global Entry were suspendedβ€”and so were my wife's.

Having suffered the pain of a tooth infection I can unequivocally say that this man died in absolute agony. The type of nerve pain that will have you screaming and wondering quite rightly if you’ve gone insane

This man was tortured through neglect, and everyone involved is an irredeemable monster

NIGHTS OF BLUE SKIES

DAY 26 FEBRUARY 2026

THESE HORRENDOUS TIMES

ICE BRUTALITY MUST BE STOPPED

Seriously Torture
No Human being needs this kind of barbaric treatment

ARE NOT CRIMINALS & ARE CITIZENS !

Yup. It’s what Putin did. It’s what Orban did. It’s what so many of us warned Trump would do and were called hysterics. It’s heartbreaking.

TRUMP'S CBP THUGS MURDERED A BLIND REFUGEE BY LEAVING HIM OUT IN BELOW FREEZING WEATHER!

This story made me gasp & then cry!

It was done with our taxpayer dollars & in our name.

This is the kind of evil that was done during the Holocaust.

This is murder!

I know I wrote it, but I truly think this should be a massive story

The Secretary of Defense told an AI company to remove its bot's moral guardrails so it can operate surveillance and lethal weapons autonomously

When warned that could endanger our own troops, he didn't care

Quietly, the Trump administration is now ending even the life-saving aid that they had promised would be preserved

They Were Convicted of Killing Their Abusers. A New Law Offered a Second Chance at Freedom. An Oklahoma law was supposed to help reduce the sentences of women who killed their abusers. Why are nearly all of them still in prison?

Oklahoma consistently ranks among the states with the highest rates for domestic violence AND female imprisonment.

A state law was supposed to help reduce the sentences of women who killed their abusers, but nearly all of them remain in prison.
