As a proud Minnesota farm girl, I watched my father work before dawn past dark, seven days a week ~ I’d like Sonny Perdue to explain exactly when any hard-working farmer would have time to take a second job! He basically said “Let them eat cake”!!!

Trump ag secretary to struggling farmers: Get a job!
Prices are tanking and the trade war drags on. That's the best advice you have, Sonny Perdue?

Always remember that when the sneering nerdbros at the NYT see complaints about shit like this, they picture the complainers as 23-year-old, green-haired grad students who are super-strident about pronouns, even when they fully know when it's, say, a late-middle-aged white dude like me.
Trump is a maximally corrupt dipshit who does crime, what’s the contradiction

The institution to stop the lawless killing spree at sea is not individual service members, US courts, or the ICC.

It is Congress.

The Article I branch needs to do its job.
Now Senate Armed Services Committee and House Armed Services Committee - vow "vigorous oversight" and "full accounting" of Secretary Hegseth's alleged "kill them all" order and double-strike operation.

Adrien Vermuele and other RW ideologues want to replace the "secular" Constitution with natural law. Are they aware that natural law, according to Thomas Aquinas in Summa Theologia, one of the most influential Western works, permits those in need to take from those with wealth?

As with Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner's engagement with Russian-Ukrainian peacemaking appears to be entirely about finding the prospects for self-enrichment. How can a modern democracy allow such grotesque corruption to be substituted for its diplomacy? But then, America is no longer a democracy.

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

#DOGE isn't "fixing" the government, it is dismantling it.

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