For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:
Tax cuts for the rich
...donβt trickle down
Boosting military spending
...doesnβt bring peace
Slashing regulations
...doesnβt create jobs
Folks, weβve seen this all before.

It's as if they understand and accept the facts and/or expert consensus on a given topic but set policy in the opposite direction to annoy the libs.
It's not just ignorance or a lack or knowlege. It's anti-knowlegde.
DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate β and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
Yet, the politicians in many countries especially the developed nations have not done enough to address this existential threat to life here on earth π π
Oh.

Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich donβt create jobs or grow the economy.

Remember this.

"U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school."
"The strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of U.S. conflicts in the βMiddle East."
Good to see a GOP politician with a spine
A filmmaker followed me during my last year in Congress while I served on the Jan 6 Committee.
The result was the documentary βThe Last Republican.β

CBP puts the blame on legacy IT systems. To be blunt, while these problems may be completely valid, this is entirely the fault of the government.
I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.
This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.

nyt website currently resembles one of those mock covers people made before 2016 election: economy floundering, war in the middle east, scandal-plagued cabinet sec, brazen corruption....
It looks the βRβ word in the finance sector isnβt a concern? (Recession) seems inevitableβ¦
If itβs true that the United States bombed an elementary school and killed scores of children it is an unfathomable crime. I have never been more disgusted to be an American.

Almost as soon as Jessica Tarlov started to talk about Iran Jesse Watters talked over her. This was right after he had spoke about Iran at length. What is the timeline for Iran? No one knows. As Tarlov was getting another point across Greg Gutfeld talked over her.
