All I think about when I hear people say that it’s bad taste to dance on Hulk Hogan’s grave is that Emmett Till’s monument had to be replaced with a 500lb steel bulletproof monument because white people simply won’t stop riddling it with bullets. So now it just has tons of dents. From bullets.

Trump is the largest internal security failure in modern U.S. history, and the second largest in the modern West, surpassed only by Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

FEMA response to deadly Texas floods delayed & deficient with Noem in charge Staffers sound the alarm.

NEW from me — FEMA staffers say the response to the Texas floods is horrifyingly slow, and it may be because of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's recent increased control over how the agency spends money.

"If this is how they are going to do a major hurricane response, people are fucked.”

This bill is a declaration of war on American families. It's the largest transfer of wealth in history from poor and middle-class Americans to the ultrawealthy, a wishlist made by the most awful people in the world.

What happened to Sen. Padilla is a disgrace.
Elected officials are supposed to speak for the people.

When the government starts throwing Senators to the ground for doing that, we’ve left democracy behind.

You don’t have to wonder what a fascist regime looks like. This is it.

It’s not illegal for a United States Senator to go to a public press conference and ask questions about your constituents safety.

It's our job.

Today they have crossed a deep red line.

We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Commentary: ICE arrested a California union leader. Does Trump understand what that means? Unions in California are different from many in the U.S. because they are predominately people of color and immigrants. The arrest of a union president in L.A. will likely activate these unions to become powerful forces of nonviolent protest.

The arrest of David Huerta, president of SEIU-USWW and SEIU California, by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Friday is going to have a major impact on the coming months as deportations continue.

I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.

Together with progressive partners, we’re planning a massive mobilization in the streets to translate the anger with Trump’s power grab into a nationwide show of defiance.

Everything we have stood around the world going back 80 years - collective security, honoring alliances, helping friends & allies, feeding the hungry, treating & curing diseases, humanitarian aid, the rule of law, broadcasting truthful news to people who can’t get it - all gone.

Hundreds of Thousands Will Die The writer, surgeon, and former U.S.A.I.D. administrator Atul Gawande on the Trump Administration’s decimation of foreign aid and the consequences around the world.

And once we add in climate impacts, it's even a whole lot worse than hundreds of thousands. #TheStakes #TeslaTakedown

BERNIE: “We have a health care crisis in this country.

Americans are dying because they can't afford to see a doctor.

We agreed on BIPARTISAN legislation to improve health care in America.

And one Republican kills the bill.

The American people are watching.”

Corporate media refuses to note this but under Biden the Dow Jones closed just a few months ago over 45,000. Under Trump the Dow is now down to 43,100. The NASDAQ was 20,100. Today it's at 18,300. Trump's chaos and his new tariffs are causing investors to flee. And market heading lower today.

Europe & the free world need to grow the fuck up right now and accept this horrific truth:

As long as Trump & Vance are in the White House, America is not with you. With Trump & Vance in the White House, America is with Putin.

Free world, so many of us Americans are so sorry.
