I listen to Radio Paradise for learning new artists, then to dive more deeply, I use Tidal. Radio Paradise is honestly the best, though, and it's user supported.

“America First” is the biggest ruse of all; he sells off this country to every rich Russian, Saudi, and other international oligarchs every day in ever way. He calls for patriots and is the least patriotic person imaginable. The presidency is not a sacred responsibility to him; it’s his piggy bank.

Nothing Great I’ve felt my fair share of righteous anger lately, and plenty of dismay, but today I’m sad. Incredibly sad. Was it the video of Kristi Noem looking cute and wearing a $30,000+ Rolex sta…

A DHS staffer faces serious punishment for accidentally adding a reporter to a group email The episode, which hasn't been previously reported, raises questions about unequal punishment for inadvertent leakers in the Trump administration.

"They eat farmed salmon."

How can he possibly profit from our economy tanking? I imagine his reason has more to do with what he can gain than it does with hurting Cansda.

Serious question: What is the current Republican spin on all that Trump's doing? I'm barely able to keep up and am not checking their go-to news sources. Are they at all alarmed? Are they even hearing/reading the same stories?

My hope lies in Americans noticing this. robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-fir...

Trump Stocks E.P.A. With Oil, Gas and Chemical Lobbyists Top political appointees are already at the E.P.A. preparing to erase the agency’s climate rules and pollution controls. Many of them have tried it before.

Trump takes the hammer to any kind of environmental protection, his officials at the EPA there only to promote Oil and Gas profits. America’s new environmental stance is “Drill Baby Drill”
