Watching Amazon bring the United States post office to its knees at the holidays so that Bezos can billion his billions is profoundly sad.

How can we make different decisions with our dollars?

p.s. In #Vermont, people spend $1100 PER MINUTE at Amazon.

Per minute. There's a cost to that locally.

NEW: Pentagon lawyers asked State Dept. if US could send survivors of Trump's boat strikes to a notorious prison in El Salvador. Then Pentagon pushed to have survivors sent anywhere but the US — to prevent any US court cases. Gift link to our @nytimes.com story: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/09/u...

We have been making this point about Trump talking about violence and threats against journalists since 2015 and got made fun of for it, don’t take it so seriously they said. The face-eating leopards remain undefeated for a reason.
Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I sent those deaths threats directly to him in a text message & informed him of what his name calling & words were doing - it was a direct assassination threat on my son. And he was extremely - I won't repeat what he said - but it was extremely unkind. No sympathy. No care"

Trump’s Justice Department is hellbent on accessing our private voter information—Social Security numbers, party affiliation, driver's licenses—resulting in what experts warn would be a gold mine for hackers.
Trump’s DOJ is building a voter purge machine—powered by your private data
The federal agency ordinarily would prevent attacks on voting rights. Now it’s carrying them out.

For those who thankfully have left Twitter, just know the site under Musk now fully belongs to Nazis and white nationalists.

This the present and future of the GOP btw. White supremacy, misogyny, cruelty & a delight in violence.

It's going to be an ugly rough road ahead but we have the majority.

Here's a better headline for Axios: "How Trump has normalized racism and racist slurs." Why can't some journalists just call a thing what it is? https://loom.ly/hiKWr58

Every paper in America should have a 6 inch headline:
Sitting Member of Congress, Adelita Grivalja, Attacked by Trump's ICE with Chemical Weapons.

The Congresswoman was hit by gas pellet munitions when coming upon an ICE abduction at a restaurant she frequents in her community.

Tom Cotton wants you to believe that two men who had just been blow out of a boat (that killed 9 people) and were probably severely injured – could flip a 39 foot boat that weighed several thousand pounds – and somehow represented an imminent threat.

The former president of Honduras was sentenced to 45 years in prison for importing 500 TONS OF COKE into the US. Trump, who allegedly hates drug traffickers, pardoned him. The reason may have to do with a Thiel-backed, tech-right deregulated zone in Honduras. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
