AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

I don't care if you're a Democrat, a Republican, an Independent, or a whatever, but you cannot be okay with Trump sending $40 billion dollars to Argentina, while there's a Republican Government Shutdown and while our Economy is in turmoil. America First My Ass!!!

Now I wonder if TIME wanted Trump viewed from this angle on purpose. Deborah who is professional film maker takes note of this photograph that shows absolutely no scar tissue visible on Trump’s ear where he claims to have been shot. More evidence this was an outright lie!

A devastating flood tore through Kipnuk; five months earlier, federal funding meant to help the village withstand disasters was abruptly cut. Lee Zeldin revoked the grant, citing a new push to eliminate what he called “wasteful DEI grants.”

Many of the chat members already work inside government or party politics, and one serves as a state senator. And Samuel Douglass, a state senator from northern Vermont is also the head of the state’s Young Republicans!

Why doesn't the GOP care?

Let’s stop pretending. The issue before the Supreme Court right now is easy to understand: There are still many people on the far right who don’t see Black Americans as equals...they see them through the same filthy slur they whisper when the cameras are off. That's right...that word.

People think politics is corrupt… all of it. And to fix it, we need to rebuild trust.

That’s why I’m running on:

- Banning stock trading by members of Congress
- Overturning Citizens United
- And not taking a dime of corporate PAC $$

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

#ICE isn't "deporting" immigrants, it is kidnapping them.

#Trump isn't "helping" Americans, he is retaliating against them.

#PamBondi isn't "upholding" the Constitution, she is ignoring it.

IF, & it should be a big IF, this should come to pass, and the SCOTUS does indeed strike down, or even weaken our VOTING RIGHTS, the next time Dems have majorities in BOTH houses, some justices NEED to be impeached (it works the exact same way it does with presidents)
