This is where I scream into the void. Urbanization, bicyclist, environmentalist. Fighting liberal. Everyone deserves to exist without oppression or the denial of their humanity. The US Supreme Court is corrupt. Trump is a traitor.

The Trump administration is adding Venezuelan President Maduro and his government to the U.S. list of the world’s most dangerous terrorist organizations.

What they haven’t done is present credible evidence proving the vessels they keep targeting are the cartel instead of crimes against humanity.

Republican damage to healthcare is kicking in:

"last month, the Ammonoosuc Community Health Services location in Franconia, a town of around 1,000 people, closed for good.

Officials blamed cuts in Medicaid, the federal program that millions of low-income Americans rely on for health care."

Pretty remarkable that Trump has installed someone on the Saudi dole — Jared Kushner collects millions in fees from the Saudis every year — in a key role for America's most sensitive and consequential foreign policy negotiations (Gaza, Ukraine), and it is largely TREATED AS A NON-STORY

This is racist. This is evil. This costs us all, it harms black Americans, it damages our country.
Since February, according to my latest analysis, almost 600,000 Black women have been economically sidelined. The November 20, 2025, Jobs Report makes clear this isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. That is not a recovery. It is a redistribution of opportunity.

One of the bragging rights that the US ed system had in the 20th century is that we didn't have education tracks. Essentially, any kid could go to a CC or state school & major in whatever they wanted to (obviously an oversimplification). I fear this aspect of the American dream is dying.

Really important to stress that the Crown Jewels of the US higher education system were never the Ivies or elite SLACs (other countries have equivalents of these) but the well-funded, large, cheap, and excellently staffed public state university systems bringing high quality education to the masses.
