I'm just going to ask: Who does not understand the meaning of bankruptcy? Who doesn't know that Trump has had SIX (6) for his own businesses? Who doesn't know giving an incompetent businessman the reigns of our country's finances was a bad--the WORST--decision to make? Like this decision HE made.

Israel’s GDP ranks only 35 in the world. The GAZA plan was always about money, giving US oligarchy a slice of ME & attracting Gulf billions. Follow the money.

Cant believe this is what they are focusing on, when they aren’t even able to keep the government open.

Ah yes, air traffic controllers must show up for work without pay, but Congress can take the day off. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says he’ll be making “necessary cuts” to the department, because nothing fixes staffing shortages quite like firing more people.

The Supreme Court is so illegitimate that cases are often about fictional matters with plaintiffs who have been harmed in no way, now to the point where they are not aware that they are plaintiffs in a Supreme Court case.

a foundational belief of the modern right is that there is no such thing as organic disagreement with their policies, it’s all directed from the top down

they just can’t conceive that ordinary people find them horrifying

"Trans issues aren't this shameful thing that Democratic consultants suggest we hide from, it's the same fight undocumented immigrants are fighting, or those who can't access health care are fighting...Political issues aren't siloes, they're all connected, and Mamdani recognizes that." ✊

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.
