Had to doublecheck the date on this
The Trump administration took your money illegally.
They wonβt give it back.
America is in need of a major course correction:
- Qatar warns new war could "bring down the economies of the world"
- Disastrous jobs report, inflation is rising, fiscal condition worsening
- Russia is helping Iran attack Americans
Need a better wayπ

Unbelievable Tracy Chapman show just preserved by the Aadam Jacobs Collection project.
Inside the Pentagon, there was deepening concern Sunday that the Iran conflict could spiral out of control. βThe mood here is intense and paranoid,β one person said.
There is anxiety among senior leaders that the fighting will extend for weeks, further stressing limited U.S. air defense stockpiles.
Jeffries: "We're seeing the beginning of an all-out war in the Middle East at the same time Trump & his administration & Republicans have cut more than a trillion dollars from Medicaid, ripped away food in terms of nutritional assistance, & they're spending our taxpayer dollars to start another war"
π making American expensive again
I dunno, it feels like every day I fight the urge to find every person I know who voted for this administration and punch them dead in the face.
We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.
NEW: Several high-ranking federal election officials attended a summit last week at which prominent activists who worked to overturn Trumpβs loss in the 2020 election pressed for the president to declare a national emergency to take over the midterms.
For Trump, a military conflict with Iran would distract from:
-Epstein files
-His deadly deportation agenda
-Losing on tariffs at SCOTUS
-Tanking polls
-His devastating (and unpopular) budget bill
-Millions of people protesting his authoritarianism
When he's cornered, he lashes out. Be warned.
Paramount should enjoy its growing news monopoly while they have it because when Democrats win back power we are going to break up these anti-democratic information conglomerates. All of them.

βgood stewards of the American peopleβs tax moneyβ - coming from this guy and this administration is pretty rich. Where do I begin with the level of fraud and historic corruption coming from him and his boss?
Good speech but the staged audience and forced clapping reads inauthentic. Just talk to us. Simply. Lose the rest of it.
This is whatβs gonna keep me up tonight
Tonightβs state of the union.
Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib heckle Trump as he goes full fear-mongering white nationalist
R.I.P.
All of us nerds are weeping tonight. RIP Robert Carradine. He led the iconic Revenge of the Nerds franchise but also much more. Grew up watching many of his films. He was only 71.
new Post poll: Trump's tariffs are 64% disapprove, 34% approve

Undignified to say the least

The story that Elon Musk committed voter fraud has gotten next to no coverage -- one of those things you can't make come up on a Google search.
But I think it's time for Dems to go on offensive abt right wing coddling of this immigrant interfering in our elections.

Loverboyβs Paul Dean turns 80 today.
Of βWorking for the Weekend,β he said: β.. unlike us part time musicians, .. our fans are still .. working their butts off, waiting for that 5 oβclock .. And then there they are, every time we come into town .. ready to rock. Itβs definitely a Call to Action.β
I don't think you go to a play to forget, or to a movie to be distracted. I think life generally is a distraction and that going to a movies is a way to get back, not go away. Tom Noonan
Oh no! I just found out that one of my favorite character actors died: Tom Noonan always brought such humanity to every role he played. A towering, unforgettable figure, he also gave us one of my most-used quotations on why film isn't really escapism. RIP
