I WITNESS: From the desk of Donald Trump - The Berkshire Edge I'm not the kind of guy who writes thank you notes, since really, “thank-you's” are for suckers and losers, but you guys have really had my back.

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

Resolution Copper is blocking comments and hiding replies from anyone calling out what they’re doing at Oak Flat. They’re trying to mine on sacred Native American land, with the government’s help, and don’t want the public to push back.

If you are against the Save Act, note Democrats Jared Golden, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, Henry Cuellar and Ed Case voted in support of voter suppression.

- a Palestinian or Muslim student wondering if you will be kidnapped for your advocacy to end a genocide, for these people today the US is a war zone. Now more than ever, it matters that we are not lulled into complacency simply because our war is not like other wars. "

Yet, if you are a person of color and an immigrant watching the US government erase your history and declare you an enemy, a transgender person wondering where to live with full rights, a poor person wondering if cuts to the safety net will push you into homelessness

, war on terror, war on wokeness.
And with that rhetoric comes dehumanization because, in war, there are always enemies....." "I know it may be hard to accept this metaphor of war. After all, our lives do not resemble what we see on television and the internet.

I had to quote this blog from Crossroads Antiracism "As participants revisit history, the words of legal scholar Sora Han start to make sense: “The United States is not a nation at war. The United States is war.” The rhetoric of war is common in the US: war on drugs, war on poverty, war on crime

Supreme Court puts hold on order that deported Maryland man must be returned to US The Trump administration admitted it mistakenly deported Kilmar Abrego Garcia but said it had no authority to return him from El Salvador.

So you deport someone who you were not supposed to, a DOJ lawyer admits it (then gets taken off the case and put on leave) and the we are absolutely not "Supreme Court" puts it on hold? Us citizens are going to die at some point and they don't give a F*ck! www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

If you live in Wisconsin or in the 6th congressional district of Florida you’ll have a chance to do something the rest of us only dream about doing...

Wisconsin residents are receiving text messages from a (202) D.C. area code, falsely urging them not to vote in the upcoming election. These messages are not legitimate.

BREAKING: Trump is having a full-blown meltdown on Truth Social—this time over a painting of him displayed at the Colorado State Capitol. He’s lashing out at the governor, claiming the portrait is “distorted.”

It’d be a real shame if everyone saw it… and shared it.

'Segregated facilities' are no longer explicitly banned in federal contracts The Trump administration cut a clause from federal contracting rules that had been on the books since the 1960s: Companies are no longer explicitly prohibited from having segregated facilities.

These are the 10 Democratic Senators that voted "yes" on 3/14/25 to approve the really shitty Republican continuing resolution: Cortez Masto, Durbin, Fetterman, Gillibrand, Hassan, King, Peters, Schatz, Schumer, Shaheen. Don't let them forget it!

We need to ask these people every single day until September 30, 2025 why they voted "yes"... #Shutdown #Revolt #Resist

To the democratic leaders and those who voted for the censure of Rep. Al Green, We the people do not want restraint- we want you to burn the mf down! Now is not the time to be polite. If you don't start stepping up you will be voted out! Grow a spine Democrats!!!

Trump has signed an executive order to clear-cut 280 million acres of trees (even endangered species) in National Forests and other projected lands.

Everything this administration does is to troll Americans who didn't vote for Trump. Like, say, environmentalists.

Watching other countries leaders speak makes me want to weep when I see what the Republican president says. We look like idiots.
