Trump and his racist Project 2025 Christian Nationalist administration have announced they will overhaul our refugee system to favor white refugees.

Aaron Parnas reports that the Pentagon, under the direction of Pete Hegseth, has confiscated the badges of every media organization except OAN. In other words, the only reporting from the Pentagon will be fascist Trump state news.

In the meantime, Trump is giving Argentina $40billion. WTF?

Republicans have said for years that they want to end the ACA for a better healthcare plan, but they never present one. They have no plan because they only govern for their billionaire donors, and they don’t need one.

Trump wants the shutdown so that he can blame his own policies that have tanked the economy on Democrats.

Reminder: Project 2025, which has now replaced the United States Constitution, dictates that laws be ignored in order to advance the Authoritarian agenda. Arizona Rep.-elect Grijalva is being stonewalled because of that mandate.

You must read this account because it will make you understand how evil Ghislene Maxwell & how heinous it is for Trump to even consider pardoning this monster. Kudos to the late Virginia Giuffre for her bravery and battle to redeem her young and vulnerable self www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

‘Prince Andrew believed having sex with me was his birthright’: Virginia Giuffre on her abuse at the hands of Epstein, Maxwell and the king’s brother

In an extract from her posthumous memoir, Virginia Roberts Giuffre remembers the day an ‘apex predator’ recruited her from Mar-a-Lago, aged just 16; how she was trafficked to a succession of wealthy a...

Finally, some common sense from Oklahoma education.

Ryan Walters turned classrooms into culture war battlegrounds. Reversing his Bible mandate isn’t “anti-religion,” it’s accepting the fact that the Bible is not a history book!

Schools should teach, not preach.

It recently crossed my mind that the Trump administration may have destroyed or deviously altered the Epstein files. Somebody talk me down, please!

Republicans aren’t worried about Hatch Act violations or impeachment because they don’t plan to leave office. Trump told rallies to vote for him & it would be the last time they would ever need to vote. He and Vought have gutted election oversight, and an election denier bought Dominion.

My favorite network, Meidas, reports: “The NY Times is reporting that the United States has authorized covert C.I.A. action in Venezuela — including lethal force — to force regime change in Venezuela.”
What happened to the Trump promise of no more wars? Every utterance is just propaganda.

$40billion to Argentina?? What happened to America First? Trump and his Project 2025 authoritarian regime are long on slogans and self-enrichment and short on democracy and their oaths to the Constitution

As a mother and teacher, I am crying. As an American, I am crying. As a human, I am crying.
That is the case with most of what the Fascist Project 2025/Trump regime does every day.

Mike Johnson is enabling a hostile takeover of the US govt by a criminal enterprise of white supremacists, Christian nationalists, and techno-fascist billionaires who aim to replace democracy with a dictatorship led by Epstein’s closest coconspirator.

For the love of America, we must protest this.
