We are 7 weeks into the most egregious stock market manipulations of our lifetime.
Orchestrated by a crooked president and his underlings.
Billions siphoned via false proclamations of ceasefires and peace talks.
With the criminals in charge, every day is a crime spree.
This👇🏼. AOC is the only one stating it clearly and plainly. Do I have any faith that the American people will ever elect a woman president someday? No. I hope I’m proven wrong.
“Failure to hold accountable the grotesque abusers of our public resources for their personal gain would make a mockery of every taxpayer…We should expect nothing less than responsible, ethical government, not piggish thieves feeding at the trough.”

SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “The faithless president depicts himself as Christ while he plunges the nation into wars of choice… Remember — While you pay more for everything, the First Family’s wealth is growing by billions. Because they’re crooks, and everybody knows it.”
We The People 😡😡🤬🤬
We have a major problem with our president. He has no regard for humanity. None!
Trump insults NATO allies, says he doesn't need them, gets into a mess, begs NATO allies to bale him out, and when they all refuse, screams on Truth Social, "WE DO NOT NEED THE HELP OF ANYONE — WE NEVER DID ". Seriously .. this man is genuinely insane. And his finger is on the nuclear trigger.😳
If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.
This is an escalation by DHS.
Six US Citizens and permanent residents are now home after being held over 30 hours at O’Hare, transferred to Broadview, and moved across state lines.
Community pressure got them home. So many more do not have that support.

Stephen Colbert says he was told by CBS lawyers "in no uncertain terms" that he could not have Texas State Rep. James Talarico on his program.
"Because my network clearly doesn't want us to talk about this, let's talk about this."
Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future.
Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.
Pisses me off!
Good luck. Prepare yourself and I hope you and your birds make it through.
Yes! And sadly we have a society where we can’t live without our cars, front seat and back. We’re along for the ride until we put on the brakes for all of us.
7 Dems went rogue. Disgusting.
The domestic terrorist organization known as "ICE" is stalking people at food pantries. And following people who deliver food to those too scared to leave their residences to go to those pantries. Despicable, lawless ghouls.

What worries me with ice is that the public has no way of knowing if they are really ice. They have unmarked vehicles, wear masks, show no warrants or legal paperwork, no identification, and appear very unprofessional and violent. Anyone could be impersonating ice to terrorize our communities.
This is not a pretty picture. tRump has so many things backwards, and the people who are egging/guiding this insane man on, what are they? Pure evil.

With three years left in this administration, we know what we're up against - and how important your voice will be. Continue to keep up the pressure. Don’t let polluters and their allies define our future.
Pew Research Institute (2023):
• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants
• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants
• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.
And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."
It's *not* about immigration.
Wonderfully appropriate sermon for us to hear again, or for the first time. I think about what this country might have been like if he had lived. A so much better place.
“There was no reason for celebration yesterday as this spectacle of sociopathy played out. But there is every reason to do whatever we can to ensure that people like this never again have access to the levers of power.”

As always, a beautiful speech from Carl
"Man in His Arrogance" by Carl Sagan
"That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy." - Robert Reich
