Media, music, and democracy junkie. Usually musically love loud guitars, three chords and a cloud of dust. Also, cheese (except for Swiss)

EVERYTHING that Trump/Musk/MAGA/GOP support, espouse, enact, or are against WILL harm 98% of all Americans, be it financially, physically, mentally, somehow, in some way. If not immediately, in the months and years ahead.

Think about it.

Trump has the most incompetent, unqualified and corrupt cabinet in American history. And lets not forget RFK, Jr. Its like a third world country. How deranged anyone has to be to nominate those asshats, let alone vote to confirm. Nearly as disgraceful as it is destructive.

Don't you think that if the boats were filled with drugs, if these guys were all "narcoterrorists," Kegsbreath and Noem would be on a Navy ship, filming the interdiction and turning it into a huge propaganda social media and video package? Especially with the new "journalists" at the Pentagon.
Koh: This is not about justice. This is about power. This is about a Secretary of Defense so drunk off alpha male bullshit that he's willing to take lives to get off on that power.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service
December 5, 2025 at 1:31 PM
Technically, hasn't Trump already pre-emptively pardoned the J6 pipe bomber? And it turns out, he's a MAGA election denier.

Credit where credit is due: it takes a lot of effort )and a complete lack of integrity, let alone any attempt at journalism), for Fox to spin like this. Propaganda, sure, but they are the masters.
FOX: "1.1 million job cuts in 2025, a 54% increase from 2024…. But it could be good news for the president.” 🤔

Anyone who thinks expanding the SCOTUS will ever happen. Even with a Dem potus, there won't be a 60-vote Senate tilt. They will never have the political courage, and billions of $$ will be spent to fight it. Even if it wasn't a dream imagine how long confirmation hearings would take. Years...

That TN special election: turnout was about 99% of the typical mid-term, but I'm curious as to what percentage was GOP vs. the previous election?

And for those saying being moderate hurt her, how do we know Behn wasn't moderate enough? This is TN after all, in a very red district.

This is some next level CCP/North Korean shit right here.
This is what government censorship actually looks like: defunding entire fields, deporting researchers, and quite effectively chilling speech that helps people understand how our information systems are being exploited and calls out powerful people and platforms for their bullshit.
For the last decade, the pervasive spread of bullshit & manipulation of online platforms have been widely recognized societal concerns. Now non US citizens studying those subjects can be labeled “censors” & denied visas or deported from the US. Censorship, indeed. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Remember, if they had good news, the regime would be shouting out about it!
Even though Trump is trying to bury it, real people feel what’s coming. We’re either already in a recession or staring straight at one.

📌 ADP: the labor market slowdown is worse than expected in November, with private companies cutting 32,000 workers and small businesses taking the biggest hit.

Conway: This is a criminal government. Unless you are willing to say that, you’re basically fighting on their terms. They get to lie, and they win that battle because people say, “We shouldn’t use that kind of language.”

But you get to use that language when it’s fucking true.

A North Texas attorney who has repeatedly described himself as a fascist and said he despises democracy wants you to vote for him.

Historically, fascists rose to power in no small part by being elected to office.

He’s an Unapologetic Fascist Who ‘Despises’ Democracy. He Still Wants You to Vote for Him.
He was once leader of the Proud Boys, has posted racist threats online, and sports a white nationalist tattoo.

So Somalia = Afghanistan now?

This is the equivalent of "they all look alike." Hell, 98% of the ICE kidnappings are based on that theory.
BERMAN: How many of the 40,000 people born in Somalia living in Minnesota do you consider to be garbage?

McLAUGHLIN: We're really looking at the data

BERMAN: All of them?

McLAUGHLIN: This is not about politics. This is about public safety. We saw the terrorist attack against us last week.

MSNBC reporter presents Trump's shameful racism towards Somalis as merely "a different view"
December 3, 2025 at 5:57 PM
Its definitely a racial thing.
When the president sends federal agents after a class of people who are mostly citizens, the vast majority with permanent legal status, calls them "garbage" and says, "let them go back to where they came from." It makes you suspect this could be a racial thing.

You know who never fell asleep in cabinet meetings? The former president. You know who never said "have a great holiday week" three days after the holiday week? That same previous president.
He seems to be constantly fighting 'wokeness' these days...
December 3, 2025 at 2:45 PM
I'm running out of words to describe how vile this is.
I warned yesterday that this administration is creating the conditions for radicalization here at home. Hours later, Trump called Somali immigrants “garbage,” and implied even U.S. citizens should “go back.”
ICE “strike teams” are now headed to Minneapolis. This is exactly the danger I wrote about.
The Hard Truth About the D.C. Attack
The danger didn’t come from abroad. It came out of what we did here.

Just had to stop for a second and ponder how fucked up and vile one has to be to nominate someone as vile and fucked up as RFK, Jr. for HHS head. Let alone vote for his nomination.
