I listen to the Grateful Dead, Dead Kennedys, Kendrick, Beastie Boys, Rage Against the Machine, Beck, Neutral Milk Hotel, Johnny Cash, and bands like that. GO DUCKS! 🦆🦆🦆🦆

I'm a dumbass sometimes, but I mean well.
His approval rating is in the toilet. This isn't what people signed up for. He knows he's cooked, which is concerning. He's been incredibly awful, but how far we he go knowing his days are numbered?

The decline comes as the administration is working to take on an affordability crisis.

Landman lost me when a main character left her BF because he struck it rich. That doesn't happen. Maybe after he's rich and starts acting like a rich asshole, but not just because he came into money. Not if he's still the same guy.

This is fucking laughable. This administration is a complete joke.
GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing

BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

THOMPSON: What does that mean?

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

This is the kind of shit that's fueling a blue wave across America. Even if you're conservative and want immigration efforts, especially of criminals, to be ramped up, this isn't what you signed up for. Eisenhower is rolling in his grave. This isn't American. This is disgusting.
ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground.

Man repeatedly begs agents to look at his digital passport ID—they refuse.

Drove him 7 miles away before releasing him alone into Minnesota snow storm—told him to "walk home" in freezing weather advisory.

There's no question he wants to be a dictator. The constitution is the only thing in his way, and 200 million Americans that like democracy.
I am not live posting the whole argument here because I want to listen closely to Trump v. Slaughter. But the solicitor general for Trump just said the point here in killing the independence of agencies like the FTC is that executive branch officers must “fear and obey” the president. Wow. #SCOTUS

It was questionable to use these tactics on someone responsible for thousands of deaths. Using torture on people detained by ICE/Homeland Security is cruel and illegal.
They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

Every single conference title game loser fell at least one spot, but one. It was the team that lost by the biggest margin and has more losses than any team in the playoffs, including a loss to FSU(5-7). Tell me there's no bias. Blah, blah, blah.....

This is where we are? Are you freaking kidding me? The Dems need to ditch the centrist, blue-dog types and go full tilt for pro democracy, social democrat. This fascism will not stand, dude.
They cannot be given authority to forcibly remove anyone from their vehicle this way. Think about how bad actors would abuse this power.

1. He is a chiropractor, not a doctor
2. His MS is from his chiropractic school (that's why he doesn't say where he got it)
3. His Johns Hopklns degree is an online MA for non-physicians & the JHU library has no evidence of him finishing a thesis
4. Bastyr University is an unaccredited quack school

Washington will be participating in the LA Bowl, while Oregon surges into the College Football Playoffs. UW's coach doesn't even want to be there. His family already moved back South. Two programs on different trajectories.

And with #Trumpflation, it's going to be more difficult than ever to get by while on unemployment.
Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic.

Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders.

This is what a rigged economy looks like.
