Trump's $1.5 trillion military budget request is batshit crazy. The $600 billion increase from the 2025 budget is 20 times the cost of extending the enhanced Obamacare subsidies, which Trump and Republicans said we couldn't afford deanbaker22.substack.com/p/a-600-bill...
And here I thought you were posting your own photos.☹️
Every day I become more convinced that the only way to restore our democracy is to radically amend or replace the Constitution.
JD Vance, who is using a new book about his religion to promote his political ambitions, says religion should stay out of politics.
You first.
Could we do a Truman Show situation where we build a fake Oval Office where he watches AI created fake news about himself and let him believe he's still president and tweet the hours away and meanwhile we can impeach him and move on...I'm not sure he'd know the difference
Do you mean it raises prices? Because that’s absolute nonsense. The only people who say that either have a very shallow understanding or are paid to say it.

Don’t like it when they can only score on the long ball.
Karoline Leavitt makes a strong case against the existence of a just God because she shamelessly flaunts her fake Christianity and hasn't been struck by lightning yet.
It really is grossly obscene that the same people who block poor people from getting help with vital medicines, housing, and food—calling them freeloaders—live in mansions with free security paid for by the taxpayers. They have no shame.
Don't forget "IMPRISON."
Filthy lucre
Donald is only right at the wrong time.
I hope someday to see baseball teams line up to shake their opponents hands at the end of a series, as they do in hockey. (And Little League.)
In their wildest fantasies about Hunter Biden, Republicans didn't come up with anything half as corrupt as what Kushner is doing in front of our eyes every day. He's handling US foreign policy at the exact same time that he's taking billions from the Saudi dictator.
We live in a world in which denying the facts--that we are at heart migratory beings, a 'homeland' is a dangerous fiction, migration for all is inherently desirable, etc. etc.--is taken as affirming some deep, noble truth requiring no explanation, and speaking the truth is taken as a moral affront
If we kill innocent people with impunity, some of the family members of the people we kill will want to kill us back. And that's how cycles of violence go on for generations.
That's why the obligation to stop the violence always rests on the folks with the bigger guns.
The Pentagon spent $93 billion in one month.
That same amount could fund universal school breakfast and lunch for every child in America for two years.
No child in the richest country on Earth should be learning on an empty stomach.
Unacceptable. My entire university could be funded for 10 years for what he has blown through in one week killing school girls and destroying our reputation in the world.
Who taught Trump this stupid tug of war thing with his handshakes? Fred? Roy Cohn? Epstein? I guess it’s supposed to be some kind of dumb power move. This morning with the President of Paraguay.
Thanks to Trump's massive tax cuts for billionaires: 700 rural hospitals and 600 nursing homes are at risk of closure.
STEWART: “So just to be clear - Trump is on the brink of war with Iran to either obliterate the nuclear program he previously ‘obliterated’, or to force them into signing a deal like the one HE PULLED OUT OF — it’s all in Chapter 9 of Art of the Deal: Eating Your Own Asshole.”
An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump.
Wow.
So the United States will only use empty warehouses to house people it wants to terrorize, not people it wants to shelter from the cold.
We really are not a very good-natured country.
Something I must work on. “It's one thing to get angry, even Jesus did that. It's another thing to nurse the kind of anger or wrath that classifies another as an enemy, an obstacle or an impediment. That erases their humanity in our minds.”
This is so deeply fucked. I wish these people would just admit they hate the idea of democracy and get it over with. This kayfabe bullshit is just silly at this point.
Democracy is when voters choose their leaders. Autocracy is when leaders choose their voters.
