"Making America Great Again." |
Back in 2005 Lost Country recorded a song that was issued on their CD Long Gone Thrill. It was a song written by Jeff Gutcheon that was originally titled Land of the Happy Negro, subtitled Battle Hymn of the Republicans. We thought that no one would “get it.” It would be misunderstood; it might be construed as racist on our part. Of course, it was far from that. We changed the title and some of the lyrics. But today I realize that Jeff was on the money and that now everyone should recognize that he was. The teahadists, around 2011, demanded that the school textbooks in Tennessee overlook certain facts and look at the “sunny side of slavery.” So, now these “Ministry of Truth” protectors can take their proper context with the song that had them pegged from our earlier years when we tried to be kind. Now, we know they are not kind people. Now, you can hear the original track—unedited, unoverdubbed, with the original lyrics sung as a pilot vocal so we could work on the track that later became the issued recording of a kinder version, Land of the Happy People.

using the title Battle Hymn of the Republicans for one of their segments. Great minds think alike. Except the greatest think of them first.
On page 97 in Jill Lepore’s book The Whites of their Eyes (2010, Princeton University Press) she states, “There was though, something heartbreaking in all this. Behind the Tea Party’s Revolution lay nostalgia for an imagined time—the 1950s, maybe, or the 1940s—less riven by strife, less troubled by race. In that nostalgia was the remembrance of childhood, a yearning for a common past, bulwark against a divided present, comfort against an uncertain future....”
As if anyone needed more proof of this retro-lunacy just look at our latest "sunny slaver" Cliven Bundy and his quotes on "happy negros." I quote Maureen Dowd in her Times column Sunday, April 27, 2014: "It’s a measure of how hallucinogenic conservatives are that they are trying to re-litigate slavery during the second term of the first African-American president." Jeff’s song could very aptly be subtitled Battle Hymn of Cliven Bundy.
Need more? Take a look at an Esquire article written by Charles P. Pierce dated April 25, 2014, Mike Pence Joins A Bad Parade.
"In downtown Indianapolis, there's this massive monument to the people from Indiana who have died in our various wars, particularly the nearly 25,000 Hoosiers who died in the War of Southern Sedition. I mention this only to point out that the National Rifle Association is meeting in Indianapolis at the moment, and Indiana Governor Mike Pence made them welcome by edging right up to being on the wrong side of the dispute that cost so many Hoosiers their lives. This, of course, is the on-ramp to the expressway to Bundyville, although Pence would be horrified if you pointed that out to him."
Governor Pence: "Washington is not only broke, it’s broken. The cure for what ails this country will come more from our state capitals than it ever will from our national capital. Despite what some may think in Washington, our state governments are not territorial outposts of the national government. The states are the wellspring of the American experiment. It will not be enough to cut federal spending; the next generation of leaders must permanently reduce the size and scope of the federal government by returning to the states the rights, resources, and responsibilities that are rightfully theirs!"
"This view of things was litigated at the Constitutional Convention. It failed. It was litigated over the tariff. It failed. It was litigated at Cemetery Ridge. It failed. It was litigated prior to the passage of the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments to the Constitution. It failed. It was litigated at Central High in Little Rock. It failed. It was litigated on the campus at Ole Miss in 1962. It failed. It was litigated at the Edmund Pettus Bridge. It failed. It is the connective tissue that binds modern conservativism inextricably to the remnants of American apartheid because this view of the nature of the nation always was the expression of threat that the slaveholder felt about his way of life. It camouflaged itself in a number of ways involving a number of different issues, but always it was about the fear that, sooner or later, the federal government was going to come and take away the chattel from which you derived your personal economy, and so even what might be beneficial to the nation as a whole must be resisted on the pretext of sovereign states...."
Not enough yet? Here you go. Dated July 21, 2014.
Top Anti-Immigrant ‘Expert’ Says ‘Being Hung, Drawn And Quartered’ Is ‘Too Good’ For Obama.
A senior policy analyst for the Center for Immigration Studies, which bills itself as the think tank of the anti-immigrant Right, told a Florida-based Tea Party group last week that President Obama not only deserves impeachment, but that “being hung, drawn and quartered is probably too good for him.”
The Center for New Community’s Imagine 2050 blog first reported on Stephen Steinlight’s remarks.
Steinlight also said that John Boehner’s lawsuit against the president is a ‘political loser’ and claimed that while Obama deserves to be impeached, such an effort would backfire on Republicans.
CIS describes Steinlight as “one of the nation’s most insightful voices on immigration” who provides “expert testimony” for government panels.
"A rash of opinion polls which have come out, not push polls, real polls, including one by Gallup that showed that 65 percent of the American people don’t want any part of an Obama-style immigration reform. But the idea of this [lawsuit] is vintage Boehner, it’s a political loser. There is no court that is going to stop Obama from doing anything. We all know, if there ever was a president that deserved to be impeached, it’s this guy. Alright? I mean, I wouldn’t stop. I would think being hung, drawn, and quartered is probably too good for him."
While it’s my opinion this would be “cruel and unusual punishment” I’m sure it’s merely a figure of speech the gentleman is using and doesn't seriously want lynching to return. But on the other hand, we could just
‘Blame It On Obama” as Andre Williams says.
Not enough for rational human beings? Ok:
A while back Mr. Cruz stated: “I think the reason so many Americans are upset about the Obama presidency is that they realize this wasn’t possible before, and they wanted his presidency to be bigger than it is, you know, to do bigger things. And then you have others that appreciate history. If the slaves were never freed in the Civil War, you have to wonder, where would Obama be today? Certainly not the White House, not in the capacity he’s in. And you have some in America that think that might not be a bad thing. That he not be in office, I mean.”
Another Happy Negro kind of guy! Ya gotta love the pursed eyebrow schtick!
Ted Cruz displays his acting skills.
Ah, but it goes on:
Ann Coulter is up front with her racism when in response to Michelle Obama’s commencement speech at Tuskegee University, May 2015, proudly stated on Sean Hannity’s show — "I think she’s just letting out her Reverend Wright now.” The pundit proceeded to denounce the "predator class” in the black community and deny the existence of "peaceful protesters” in Baltimore...."Oh my gosh, this nonsense about, oh, so many blacks are in prison, well how did they get there?” Coulter asked later. "In addition to the peaceful Baltimore protester I want to put on a milk carton, — have you seen this? — I want to see the innocent person in prison.”
(Note: While people of color make up about 30 percent of the United States' population, they account for 60 percent of those imprisoned. The prison population grew by 700 percent from 1970 to 2005, a rate that is outpacing crime and population rates. March 13, 2012.)
Glenn Beck stated in response to the same speech she gave with "White people in droves went out to vote for you,” he said. "You were somehow invisible so much that you became the President and First Lady of the United States of America? Tell me about the troubles that you have seen!.” Beck then argued that conservatives and Christians were the real victims of bigotry: "The conservatives have never felt it! The jobs we are suddenly bypassed for because we’re conservative, because of our viewpoint. The religious that are mocked on a daily basis and belittled. Yeah, we’ve never felt that. We don’t know what it’s like.”
An excellent playing of the "Victim Card” the Republicans do over and over as well. 76% of Americans consider themselves "Christian” yet the Republicans consider them victims?
“Yes, the long war on Christianity. I pray that one day we may live in an America where Christians can worship freely! In broad daylight! Openly wearing the symbols of their religion... perhaps around their necks? And maybe – dare I dream it? – maybe one day there can be an openly Christian President. Or, perhaps, 43 of them. Consecutively.”—Jon Stewart
Maybe Ann and Glen should read the article in the Times Magazine from Sunday, May 10, 2015,
"Our Demand Is Simple: Stop Killing Us.”.
Would (did) they miss the killing part or are they really that clueless?
And continues:
In the June 19, 2015 article titled
“Why Conservatives Still Won't Admit That Charleston Was A Racist Crime,”
Aurin Squire makes several points on the sad excuses that Republicans used on the murders by Dylann Roof in Charleston, South Carolina. “Given the history of the South, along the rise of both active shooters and gun access, we can't call what happened Wednesday night a ‘senseless tragedy.’ In fact, the Charleston church shooting is full of savage sense. Thanks to complicity at best, and outright racist at worst, the ‘inconceivable’ is still feasible. The fear tactics that were once localized in the dark backwoods of our political landscape now reach every phone and laptop. Today, xenophobia and bigotry are the daily platforms from which many conservatives speak to their shrinking base. The Charleston shooting is not a random act of violence, but part of a long litany of history culminating in a painful present.”
From Mr. Roof’s Manifesto (as originally stated on Tumblr) :
Mr. Roof’s Tumblr had contained photos that matched his Facebook page, but both were taken down after the killings.
The essay uses defamatory terms for blacks, whom he accused of being “stupid and violent” with “the capacity to be very slick.” It laments white flight, and suggested that the whites should instead stay behind in cities and fight.
Criticisms are levied at Hispanics and Jews, but Asians are praised for being racists and potential allies. Whites are unfairly portrayed as all having been slave owners, the essay says. In reality, the author wrote, slavery was not that bad.
(Note: Charleston, SC is racially two-thirds white, up from 1980 when it was 50%)
And, on the Stars and Bars (their “Battle Flag” and not the first Confederate “national flag”) front (didn’t the Confederacy lose the war? Guess they never got over it and are still pissed).
Outrage vs. Tradition, Wrapped in a High-Flying Flag of Dixie
Supporters of the Confederate battle flag display signaled Friday that their position had not changed. In a commentary on Friday, Michael Hill, the president of the League of the South, which the Southern Poverty Law Center has listed as a hate group, said that the Confederate battle flag should remain at the State House but that the American flag should be removed.
The American flag, Mr. Hill wrote, “now stands for multiculturalism, tolerance and diversity — the left’s unholy trinity.” In “sharp contrast,” he wrote, the Confederate battle flag “stands for the heroic effort our people made 150 years ago to avoid the fate” of contemporary America.
In the same article, Senator Lindsey Graham (a Republican candidate for President of the United States) told CNN that he would support a move to “revisit” the flag’s status, but he added that the flag was part of the state’s identity.
(Identity? Guess he means Land of the Happy Negro.)
Seditious Oklahoma asshats are grabbing their share of “The Land of the Happy Negro.” “President Obama greeted by Confederate flags in Oklahoma” show these people are too ignorant to know what racism is. Only 80 of these asshats showed up but they still display their ignorance very well. Or was it only 10? Another link to the story is here. The asshat that drove up from Texas is talking to himself I suppose.
Then we have the good ol’ boys from the remnants of the KKK demanding their share of “The Land of the Happy Negro.” at the Statehouse in South Carolina. These fascists crawled out of the sewers to parade their little battle flags on Saturday, July 18, 2015. Oh, sorry, they weren’t protesting the uppity negroes, they were protesting the uppity immigrants. Old, sad, diminished, disgruntled white men and some younger skin heads were, indeed, demanding their share of the sweet sunny heritage (white supremacy) of the Confederacy. Ooops! Is that a swastika on that black T-shirt? Such class.

Land of the Happy Negro stronghold joins 21st Century.
Donald Trump openly joined “The Land of the Happy Negro” on August 15, 2017. He confirmed that he is a white supremacist supporter. He wants to blame resistance to it. You cannot serve Nazis and liberty at the same time. His attempts at being the leader of the free world have failed miserably.
The events in Charlottesville
have unmasked him forever as the bigoted demagogue he is. “The Land of the Happy Negro” has, in a not-so-subtle way, declared war on the United States. We should acknowledge this war exists, the enemy is among us, and fight it with all the heart and soul of those who fought and died stamping out this very same fascism in World War II. That is now our task as we have a president that is so mindless and tyrannical that he doesn't know the difference between Thomas Jefferson and Robert E. Lee. That same civil war is upon us once again. Lest our nation collapse, let us not fail to settle it once and for all this time.
Worse Than Treason
No amount of rationalizing can change the fact that the majority of the Republican Party is advocating for the overthrow of an American election.
For those who have no idea what World War II has to do with anything:
The Chaplain's Speech to the troops in the 1949 WWII film Battleground
"Now it’s nearly Christmas, and here we are in beautiful Bastogne enjoying the winter sports. And the $64 dollar question is: ‘Was this trip necessary?’ I’ll try to answer that, but my sermons, like everything else in the Army, depend on the situation and the terrain. So I assure you this is gonna be a quickie! ‘Was this trip necessary?’ Well, let’s look at the facts. Nobody wanted this war but the Nazis. A great many people tried to deal with them, and a lot of ’em are dead. Millions have died for no other reason except that the Nazis wanted ’em dead. So, in the final showdown, there was nothing left to do except fight. There’s a great lesson in this. And those of us who’ve learned it the hard way aren’t gonna forget it. We must never again let any force dedicated to a super-race, or a super-idea, or super-anything become strong enough to impose itself upon a free world. We must be smart enough and tough enough in the beginning to put out the fire before it starts spreading. My answer to the $64 dollar question is, yes. This trip was necessary. As the years go by, a lot of people are gonna forget, but you won’t. And don’t ever let anybody tell you you were a sucker to fight in the war against fascism. And now, Jerry permitting, let us pray. Let us pray for this fog to lift. Almighty God. The organist is hitting those bass notes a little too loud for me to be heard. So let us each pray in his own way, to his own God."
As Gregg Popovich declared, "We are Rome."
From "The Holocaust Explained": Between 1929 and 1932, support for the Communist and Nazi parties increased. The less extreme parties were blamed for causing Germany's problems. As these parties had been unable to work together to solve country's problems, people became more afraid that the Communists may take over. The moderate parties turned to the Nazis to keep the Communists out.
President Obama said, "We are not Democrats first, we are not Republicans first, we are Americans."
Mr. President, from your first day they never gave you that courtesy so they will not get it from me.

"EVERYTHING that goes wrong, from here on out, is owned by Trump and the Republicans."
When you have elected representatives stating that Trump is unqualified, bad for the country, ignorant of the issues, and other harsh criticisms also stating that they will back him as the Republican nominee, you have clear evidence of the rot that permeates the party. They are as corrupt and power-mad as their putative candidate. They—McCain, Ryan, McConnell and the rest of the toadies—demonstrate their hypocrisy and the fact that they put party power over the good of the nation.
D.L. Hughley put it in clear words, voting for Trump means "voting for a racist over a liberal." That is it, succinctly put. If you voted for Trump you have made a statement for racism, hatred, intolerance, bigotry, falsity, xenophobia, gynophobia, scapegoating and fraud. Refusal to vote for HRC does not absolve you from participation, because no vote as well as a third party vote is a vote for Trump in effect.
Let me get this straight. The "angry" American people want government out of their lives. Yet, they blame the government for forgetting about them for all the jobs that the middle-class has lost over the years. Huh? Their solution is to elect a fascist to office of POTUS. In this exchange you get a dictatorship. This has historically worked out well for how many countries? And the left get criticized for calling these people idiots? Many of these people vote against their best interest every time. What else can you call them when it is the truth?

I am not mad at you that Clinton lost. I am unconcerned that we have different politics. And I don't think less of you because you vote one way and I vote another.
No... I think less of you because you watched an adult mock a disabled person in front of a crowd and still supported him. I think less of you because you saw a man spouting clear racism and backed him. I think less of you because you listened to him advocate for war crimes, and still thought he should run this country. I think less of you because you watched him equate a woman's worth to her appearance and got on board.
It isn't your politics that I find repulsive. It is your personal willingness to support racism, sexism, and cruelty. You sided with a bully when it mattered and that is something I will never forget.
So, no... you and I won't be "coming together" to move forward or whatever. Trump disgusts me, but it is the fact that he doesn't disgust you that will stick with me long after this election.
—Sparrow R. Jones
You watched Trump live his entire life as a millionaire or billionaire and never earn an honest nickle in his life; you watched the man send ALL of his manufacturing overseas; you watched him rail against the auto industry bail out; you watched him hire illegal immigrants for his businesses and for his homes here in America; you watched him scam and bankrupt countless family owned businesses by not paying his bills; you watched him declare bankruptcy countless times and walk away with hundreds of millions of dollars; you then watched him not pay one dime of taxes on that ill gotten gain and brag about it to the middle class who had to pick up his slack on their taxes and you STILL thought that Donald Trump understands you and the working class and that he and he alone could "save our economy" and bring jobs back to "Murka".
And since you also believe that Bush left us with a strong and sound economy that Obama destroyed, I dislike you because you are a willful idiot.

"White people have nearly completely gone mad. Think about it. The people of VA voted for a republican candidate who's only platform is that he would save them from CRT and or the teaching of American History. CRT is a university level curriculum and is not taught on grade school levels. American history is impossible to teach without discussing slavery, the massacre and land theft of the first Nations. Since slavery starts with the country's formation, how do you teach American history without it? Do you start at the civil war? How do you explain why Americans were killing each other over "state's rights"? Rights to do what? Ok, maybe we teach the bible. But the setting of the Bible is in Africa and the middle east and slavery is discussed all through it. See what I mean. The battle against truth is the path to self termination on a macro scale."

Captain Beatty’s Speech
(For the 21st century book burners who think they make some sort of statement.)
"With school turning out more runners, jumpers, racers, tinkerers, grabbers, snatchers, fliers, and swimmers instead of examiners, critics, knowers, and imaginative creators, the word `intellectual,' of course, became the swear word it deserved to be. You always dread the unfamiliar. Surely you remember the boy in your own school class who was exceptionally 'bright,' did most of the reciting and answering while the others sat like so many leaden idols, hating him. And wasn't it this bright boy you selected for beatings and tortures after hours? Of course it was. We must all be alike. Not everyone born free and equal, as the Constitution says, but everyone made equal. Each man the image of every other; then all are happy, for there are no mountains to make them cower, to judge themselves against.
So! A book is a loaded gun in the house next door. Burn it. Take the shot from the weapon. Breach man's mind. Who knows who might be the target of the well-read man? Me? I won't stomach them for a minute...
You must understand that our civilization is so vast that we can't have our minorities upset and stirred. Ask yourself, What do we want in this country, above all? People want to be happy, isn't that right? Haven't you heard it all your life? I want to be happy, people say. Well, aren't they? Don't we keep them moving, don't we give them fun? That's all we live for, isn't it? For pleasure, for titillation? And you must admit our culture provides plenty of these ...
Coloured people don't like Little Black Sambo. Burn it. White people don't feel good about Uncle Tom's Cabin. Burn it. Someone's written a book on tobacco and cancer of the lungs? The cigarette people are weeping? Burn the book. Serenity, Montag. Peace, Montag. Take your fight outside. Better yet, into the incinerator. Funerals are unhappy and pagan? Eliminate them, too. Five minutes after a person is dead he's on his way to the Big Flue, the Incinerators serviced by helicopters all over the country. Ten minutes after death a man's a speck of black dust. Let's not quibble over individuals with memoriams. Forget them. Burn them all, burn everything. Fire is bright and fire is clean ...
Luckily, queer ones like her don't happen, often. We know how to nip most of them in the bud, early. You can't build a house without nails and wood. If you don't want a house built, hide the nails and wood. If you don't want a man unhappy politically, don't give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none. Let him forget there is such a thing as war. If the Government is inefficient, top-heavy, and tax-mad, better it be all those than that people worry over it...
Give the people contests they win by remembering the words to more popular songs or the names of state capitals or how much corn Iowa grew last year. Cram them full of non-combustible data, chock them so damned full of 'facts' they feel stuffed, but absolutely `brilliant' with information. Then they'll feel they're thinking, they'll get a sense of motion without moving. And they'll be happy, because facts of that sort don't change. Don't give them any slippery stuff like philosophy or sociology to tie things up with. That way lies melancholy. Any man who can take a TV wall apart and put it back together again, and most men can nowadays, is happier than any man who tries to slide-rule, measure, and equate the universe, which just won't be measured or equated without making man feel bestial and lonely. I know, I've tried it; to hell with it. So bring on your clubs and parties, your acrobats and magicians, your dare-devils, jet cars, motor-cycle helicopters, your sex and heroin, more of everything to do with automatic reflex. If the drama is bad, if the film says nothing, if the play is hollow, sting me with the theremin, loudly. I'll think I'm responding to the play, when it's only a tactile reaction to vibration. But I don't care. I just like solid entertainment."

"God ordained our great nation"?
Upon reading a remark that was stated on Face Book that "America was ordained by God." I couldn't help but wonder which 'God' as there are so many. Of course, I knew to which "God" this person was referring. But the case of this country being ordained by "God" is a case that is wide open as you can see for yourself. The statement itself is not based on Biblical history as this is unprovable by actual historical events. It is, more likely, based on "educators" such as Rush Limbaugh or his like. Biblical history that is taught by accredited institutions will not dabble in "miracles" or claims which have no evidence.
The Discovery
In 1492 the natives discovered they were indians,
they discovered they lived in America,
they discovered they were naked,
they discovered there was sin,
they discovered they owed obedience to a king and queen
from another world and a god from some other heaven,
and this God had invented guilt and clothing,
and had ordered burned alive all who worshipped the sun and
the moon the earth and the rain that moistens it.

On September 17th, FBI director Christopher Wray testified in front of the House Committee on Homeland Security.

Because unlike the ignorant of this world, Wray knows the difference between hard facts and partisan propaganda.
Granted, the director of the FBI isn't nearly as credible a source as Tucker Carlson or Sean Hannity. Just ask any plumbing-supply salesman. Presenting certain people with facts is like giving medicine to a corpse.
During a recent pro-Trump demonstration in Washington, D.C., four members of the so-called "Proud Boys" ganged up on a Black man, who defended himself by pulling out a knife and stabbing his attackers. The right-wing media ran with the story, claiming this was a prime example of how Black Lives Matter is a violent terrorist network. Never mind that the man in question never claimed to support, much less belong to, BLM. Never mind also that conservatives claim to fully support the right to defend yourself. Clearly, they only extend that right to their brother and sister fascists.
Godwin's Rule of Nazi Analogies
Godwin's Law is fellacious. It is said to end all discussions when Hitler arrives. It denies Hitler as having any valid reality—it's just too simple to use, is what it implies. You only have to look at Hitler's atrocities to understand his reality. The idea that there could not be anything comparible or greater to Hitler is what I call "The Great Denial." We all know that is a river in Egypt. If you swim in it, you just get all wet.
I hereby invoke "The Law of Law." Nothing can be denied that is real. Reality isn't what you make of it. It is what reality makes of it and you.
I will now use the "Atilla the Hun" analogy and see if some egghead will declare that a law. As I have been told so many times by right-wingers, "I'm a little to the right of Atilla the Hun." So much for theories. "What is reality?" Let that be the wall.
Trump's drive to the Hamptons is over and there is no house there (Seinfeld fans will understand). It cost us a lot of money. It took a lot of time. But the son of a bitch is a walking dead man now. Many, many of us knew how this would end—not pretty—and it has not been. But this is the bitter end of the con man, the flim flam man, the megalomaniac that is Donald J. Trump. What happens to him next will be interesting to see. He cannot go without serious punishment. He must pay and pay dearly for his insurrection.
"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." — Isaac Asimov
‘This was intentional’: AOC blasts Republicans on IVF ruling
"But I want to be very clear that this was intentional and that this is exactly what Republicans have been going for. We've seen it. You have the Heritage Foundation, you have lots of folks who are on record saying, you know, not only do they want to go after abortion, not only do they want to go after reproductive freedom, they're going after IVF. They're going after contraception. And we have the mifepristone ruling that is coming down from the Supreme Court, and Clarence Thomas, enriching himself from the same folks who are saying that they are trying to control women's bodies quite explicitly.
And going beyond that, they also want to control recreation--what they call recreational sex. This is so clearly a patriarchal theocracy that has embodied itself in the DNA of an entire political party in the United States of America. And as women, and as any nonbinary and queer person in this country—they must be defeated. There should never be room for this kind of control by force over another person's body in this country.
And they can walk it back as much as they want. They have done this. Who put those judges there? Not Democrats, not independents. Republicans put those judges in there. Republicans are taking women's bodies by force and we cannot let them do it. It has to come to an end."
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Remember, Trump doesn't like this sort of soldiering
This is required reading for a Nation in distress.
The Republican nominee’s preoccupation with dictators, and his disdain for the American military, is deepening.

Liz Cheney to Donald Trump:
"Donald, this is not the Soviet Union. You can’t change the truth and you cannot silence us. Remember all your lies about the voting machines, the election workers, your countless allegations of fraud that never happened? Many of your lawyers have been sanctioned, disciplined or disbarred, the courts ruled against you, and dozens of your own White House, administration, and campaign aides testified against you. Remember how you sent a mob to our Capitol and then watched the violence on television and refused for hours to instruct the mob to leave? Remember how your former Vice President prevented you from overturning our Republic? We remember. And now, as you take office again, the American people need to reject your latest malicious falsehoods and stand as the guardrails of our Constitutional Republic — to protect the America we love from you." — Liz Cheney posted on Call to Activism.

'I'm 100% certain' Musk 'looking for excuse to cut Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid': Top Dem
This will make the Great Depression look like child's play.
"When we think about the servants who stand in this building and buildings all across our country, these are men and women who come to work every day—and these are not Democratic jobs or Republican jobs, these are American jobs," she continued. "It is also the case that those who have served in this building do so no matter who the president is. Many of them have served for decades, under Republican presidents, under Democratic presidents—again, because they serve the people."
"When you target civil servants, you also target the people they serve," Alsobrooks stressed. "They serve our grandmothers, our grandfathers, our mothers and fathers—like mine—our friends, our neighbors, and family members with disabilities who rely on Social Security."

PolitiFact: Trump Lied About US Education Rankings
Oh, dear! The career liar did a lie?
"The piece notes that when PolitiFact asked the White House for evidence, 'they pointed us to data on a U.S. educational assessment that provided no international comparison supporting Trump’s claim.'”
They’re not just suing to stop DOGE. They’re suing Elon Musk himself.
"Elon Musk’s efforts to disrupt and dismantle the federal government at the behest of Donald Trump have already sparked a legion of lawsuits. Now the legal challengers are setting their sights on a new target: Musk himself.
Two new cases accuse the ultra-wealthy CEO of illegally amassing too much government power without the accountability typically required of high-level executive branch officials. They are seeking court orders that would force Musk to halt the cost-cutting and information-gathering activities he has been spearheading through his U.S. DOGE Service.
The lawsuits rest on a provision of the Constitution that says powerful federal officers must be “established by law,” must be formally appointed by the president and must be confirmed by the Senate. Musk, of course, has not been confirmed by the Senate, and his role is amorphous and ill-defined. He has been operating out of the White House as the head of the newly created DOGE enterprise, which stands for Department of Government Efficiency but is not a formal government department. It was established by a Trump executive order, not by Congress.
Do we still have law enforcement in this country or have we surrendered to the enemy?

'Sometimes it does take a threat': Canada’s Conservative leader puts Trump on notice
"The leader of Canada's Conservative Party has drawn a line in the sand for Donald Trump that, if he wins his country's next federal election, he has no intention of entertaining a plan for Canada to become part of the U.S.
According to a report from Politico, Pierre Poilievre gave a rousing speech in Ottawa on Saturday where he told a crowd, 'Let me be clear: We will never be the 51st state. We will bear any burden and pay any price to protect the sovereignty and independence of our country.'
Eat it, Trump.
The GOP Taliban to Women: Shut Up, Sit Down, and Stay Home on Election Days
The SAVE Act is the most dangerous voter suppression bill in modern history
"About two-thirds of all female state legislators serve in Blue states; for example, Nevada (61.9%), New Mexico (53.6%), and Colorado (51%) — all Democratic-leaning states — rank as the top three for women's representation in 2025.
By contrast, Republican-dominated states are consistently at the bottom of the rankings for women's representation. For instance, West Virginia (11.2%), South Carolina (12.9%), and Mississippi (14.9%) — all Republican-controlled — have the lowest percentages of women in their legislatures."
Fascist supression never sleeps.
The Ball’s in Our Court
"But do we have the balls to run with it? It’s clear that the game is pretty much fixed against us now, that big money and all three branches of government are not on the side of us 'little people.' That was the name a horrible old rich bitch gave us when she said 'only little people pay taxes.'...
Meanwhile, as some of us have become even more paranoid about what the fascists MIGHT do to us watch in dread at what they ARE doing to us, we are hearing that there isn’t really much that can be done to stop the tyranny of the Technocrats now that rich the own everything, right down to our Social Security numbers.
So, you’ll pardon me all to hell if it gets a wee bit tiresome to hear spokespeople for the Dems sheepishly confess that there’s really nothing they can do now and that it’s up to us, that we, the people, will not have to bring our game against the rampaging right. But also send money, please....
You want the scratch, you gotta attend to the itch. You know, like making the younger and less male progressives feel a bit more welcome at the congressional old folk’s home that is overly represented by guys who look and often sound too damn much like Republicans. You know, like Joe Manchin or that junkyard rat, John Fetterman."
Frederick Douglass’s Words Ring True: “Power Concedes Nothing Without a Demand”
Let’s draw on the defiant wisdom of Frederick Douglass as Trump carries out a blitzkrieg against democracy in the US.
As I was reflecting on Frederick Douglass this Black History Month, I thought about the blitz of executive orders coming from Donald Trump. The term “blitz” is apropos as it comes from the German Blitzkrieg, meaning “rapid attack” or “lightning war.” Hence, as Trump targets and attacks this fragile experiment called democracy, it is important that we heed Douglass’s defiant wisdom: “Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will,” Douglass said in an 1857 speech. Moreover, the abolitionist stated, “The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.”
Advocates Celebrate as Missouri Judge Blocks State Abortion Restrictions

House Dems Want To End Citizens United So We Never Get Musked Again
“Corporations are not people and money is not speech,” said Rep. Pramila Jayapal, who introduced the We The People Amendment in the House. “In every election cycle since the disastrous Citizens United decision, we have seen more and more special interest dark money poured into campaigns across the country — this year, with a billionaire paying millions to buy a seat as Shadow President. My We the People Amendment hands power back to the people by finally ending corporate constitutional rights, reversing Citizens United, and ensuring that our democracy is truly of the people, by the people, and for the people — not corporations.”

Two states are coming after a New York doctor for mailing abortion pills. Here’s what’s next
States rights only apply to states that decide they have them but others do not! LMAO!
"The cases represent a remarkable evolution from less than three years ago, when, soon before Roe’s overturn, Republicans argued that they would not support policies that could put doctors in prison."
Anti-abortion centers face little regulation. The SAD Act could change that.
The bill, introduced by Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Rep. Suzanne Bonamici, would empower the Federal Trade Commission to regulate these often religiously affiliated centers.
“Fighting back against misinformation and deceptive practices is an important tool to protect access to safe and reliable reproductive care. Reproductive rights are under attack in our country. This bill will help us push back against crisis pregnancy centers’ attempts to undermine a woman’s right to choose,” Warren said.

Sounds Like Secretary Sh*tfaced Needs To Come On Home And Resign
"We don’t know how to tell you this, but Pete Hegseth isn’t doing a very good job as secretary of Defense. We know! We are shocked and surprised too. We thought all those Saturday mornings rolling into “Fox & Friends Weekend” (reportedly!) still drunk would have prepared him for this, because aren’t all white conservative men qualified to do all jobs?
The other day, Hegseth opened his beerhole in a meeting at NATO HQ in Brussels and shared all his personal beliefs about Ukraine, specifically saying there was no reason to think about going back to Ukraine’s “pre-2014 borders” (AKA Ukraine’s actual borders) and that the United States definitely doesn’t think Ukraine should be in NATO. So don’t you worry about that, Putin, do you like it when Hegseth strokes you fast or slow, Mr. Putin, or is he doing it Goldilocks juuuuuuust right?
Unfortunately those remarks got Hegseth into a wee bit of trouble! Turns out he was kinda talking out of his ass, as they say. What a stupid, stupid boy.

Let’s be clear: Russia invaded Ukraine. Just like Hitler invaded Poland. And Japan invaded China. Which led to millions of deaths, a world war, and ultimately — to prevent a repeat — the creation of NATO.
And now Trump and Hegseth are saying right out loud that they’re going to give Putin — who’s losing the war and has sustained massive expense and casualties, leading him to look for an out — exactly what he wants...."

Was Barack Obama on his worst day ever more “anti-American” than Donald Trump, or JD Vance, or even the almost always dim-witted George W. Bush who took us into a disastrous and completely unnecessary war with the wrong enemy, running up a big tab in our national debt, shortening countless lives, and increasing instability in the Middle East before declaring a “victory,” and losing all interest in capturing Osama bin Laden, which he considered “no longer a priority,” then joking about the lies he had used about weapons of mass destruction to talk us into that goddamn war with Iraq, a boon to Haliburton, arms manufacturers, and flag waving faux patriots who rarely ever met a swarthy person they didn’t hate, Kash Patel being a slight exception.
But I’ll say and continue to say that if you’re looking for who the fuck is anti-American in this god-forsaken country, check the record and then look to your right.

Keep watching that consumer sentiment line as it plunges down, at the same pace as the emperor’s clothes start to fall to the wayside."

The Dire Consequences of Science Without DEI
This kind of halt to the review of scientific proposals has never before happened,” an NSF employee who spoke on the condition of anonymity told Mother Jones.
If left unchecked, Trump’s unprecedented crackdown on anything considered DEI, scientists worry, will reshape who can participate in science for years to come, drain creativity and fresh ideas, limit the scope of projects, and by extension, lead to worse research. And that’s not just bad for scientists; it’s bad for the health and safety of the rest of us. “It is just common sense that in order to have the best science, we need the broadest, most inclusive environment for scientists,” says Jacob Hoover Vigly, a postdoctoral fellow at MIT. As Warren warns, “We are very much at risk of losing an entire generation of researchers, and that will negatively affect us for generations.”

Trump Prepares to Wipe Out Years of Progress on Gun Violence

Remember the next time that a mass shooting happens, Trump did everything in his power to enable it, not prevent it.”

"Little X" is just mimicking his old man but it's still amusing.
"There's been ample reason to believe that Musk is the real power behind the throne. That conceit has only grown more believable since January 20, when the South African-born billionaire and his Department of Government Efficiency began its dubious work of dismantling federal institutions from the inside.
So prevalent is this perception that Time magazine recently issued a controversial "President Musk" cover featuring the unelected official sitting behind the Oval Office desk instead of Trump."

The Revolving Door Project Publishes List Tracking Reports Elon Musk and His Companies Flout the Law and Regulations
“Lawmakers cannot be surprised at the wanton disregard Elon Musk now shows for the law when he has spent decades ignoring it. Billionaires like Musk and Donald Trump have been enabled at every turn by a judiciary in the pocket of big business, legislators beholden to corporate interests, and law enforcement officials too cowardly to prosecute powerful people for their misconduct.”
“What Musk is doing now is horrifying to anyone invested in stable governance, effective regulation and the well being of American democracy. But we cannot ignore the fact that this behavior is not new. Musk, like countless other oligarchs, has been enabled at every turn by weak enforcement of federal laws and regulations. On the rare occasion that he or his companies do face penalties for flouting the rules, it is almost always a slap on the wrist – teaching him that he is above the dominion of our nation’s laws.”
“Lawmakers and law enforcement officials must learn that weak enforcement of corporate crime begets further erosion of the rule of law. We at The Revolving Door Project have long called upon attorneys general and regulators to properly enforce the law. We now do so again, with this existential crisis standing as an example of what will happen when billionaires are empowered to disregard the law. We hope this tracker will help reporters, legislators and the public understand how weak enforcement of rules led to Musk’s sense of total impunity, and his hatred of the administrative state.”
Union leader calls mass firings "reckless" and will fight for all impacted employees
"This administration has abused the probationary period to conduct a politically driven mass firing spree, targeting employees not because of performance, but because they were hired before Trump took office."
"These firings are not about poor performance -- there is no evidence these employees were anything but dedicated public servants. They are about power. They are about gutting the federal government, silencing workers, and forcing agencies into submission to a radical agenda that prioritizes cronyism over competence."
Tomorrow Belongs To Me: On Boogers and Bullshit
In a freakish snapshot of the GOP's descent into brutal, gonzo nihilism, this week saw the brash Nazi-Oligarch-in-Chief helming an Oval Office presser to hype his political, economic, cultural demolition of democracy "in compliance with the President’s executive orders" - no more health care or feeding hungry kids, lots of Kid Rock - as his four-year-old son wiped boogers on the Resolute desk where an impassive, discomfited Trump sat in the "most powerless image of a President ever."

GOP got an 'alarming glimpse at the future' as it eyes massive cut: report
The stupid is strong in this one.
"House Republicans have made slashing hundreds of billions of dollars from Medicaid, the federal-state partnership of public health insurance for lower-income people, a core part of their plan to pay for new tax cuts for the rich — but making such cuts could be much harder than they anticipate, health reporter Joanne Kenen wrote for Politico on Thursday.
The fact is, she wrote, Medicaid "has evolved and expanded significantly over the years — and its constituency has expanded along with it. Some 80 million people now get health care from Medicaid, including many working-class voters in the president’s base."

No. Pam Bondi has sued the state of New York, Hochul, James and Schroeder, which is different. You don’t say “filed charges” when you are talking about “filed a lawsuit.” There are two options here: 1) Pam Bondi totally knows this, but she was trying to sound big and scary and Ford Tough about it. Or 2) Pam Bondi does not know this, and we must now reconsider every time we’ve ever referred to Pam Bondi in these pages as “a real lawyer.”
Pointing out the stupidity in Trump's appointments.
RFK Jr. Confirmed By Senate To Make Polio Great Again
"Anti-vaccine, anti-science, pro-brainworm, acknowledged heroin user Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was confirmed today to be the Secretary of Health and Human Services, despite having no qualifications for the job other than being popular with similarly delusional Trump cultists who think modern medicine is a racket that should be replaced with quack cures and herbs.
Yes, the United States Senate, and yes, the United States Health and Human Services Department, which is not only in charge of the nation’s public health and health research institutions but is also responsible for running Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, assuming any of those are still around in a few years.
Because the US health system comprises so very many huge organizations, there will be additional Trump-appointed quacks working below Kennedy, like TV diet-pill merchant Dr. Mehmet Oz at the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), former Republican congressman and current antivaxxer Dave Weldon at the CDC, and Actual Doctor But Fox News Weirdo Marty Makary at the Food and Drug Administration. If the Senate was willing to confirm Kennedy, none of those three has any worries, not even if one or more turns out to be a cannibal alien shapeshifter bent on extracting all Americans’ cerebrospinal fluid for export to another galaxy."

WSJ Roasts Trump’s “Layers Of Intellectual Confusion”
“Interest Rates should be lowered, something which would go hand in hand with upcoming Tariffs!!!” Mr. Trump posted on his social-media site. The layers of intellectual confusion here are hard to parse, especially since higher tariffs will mean higher prices on the affected goods. But perhaps the President wants the public to look elsewhere when assigning blame for rising prices.
Addled beyond all hope.

State Department Says Contract for $400 Million of "Armored Teslas" on Hold After Explosive Outcry
The boondoggle got caught in the act?
"According to the US State Department's procurements forecast for this year,
The country exploded in fury last night when it emerged that the US State Department was planning to purchase $400 million worth of "armored Teslas."
"Critics raged at Musk's massive conflict of interest, charging that he was locking down a huge government contract while acting as hatchet man for the federal budget."

‘The Daily Show’ skewers Trump and Musk’s obscene Oval Office presser
“We're not going to buy anything,” Trump blathered in one such incoherent message after being asked about his unpopular plan to take over Gaza. “We're going to have it and we're going to keep it, and we're going to make sure that there's going to be peace, and there's not going to be any problem, and nobody's going to question it.”
“Trump is like a Jedi who doesn't have the force,” Klepper joked. “One thing I find weird about Donald Trump saying he wants to run Gaza is that from what we've seen so far, he barely wants to run the United States.”
'Huge bills': Trump’s mass deportations are 'stretching government resources' to the limit
"President Donald Trump's mass deportations of unauthorized immigrants are sucking up public funds and stretching the limits of government resources, according to reports….. To deport just one million illegal 'aliens' would mean that Trump's Administration would need to repatriate some 2700 individuals daily for a full year. And reports suggest that Immigration and Customs Enforcement are nowhere near that figure due to a cocktail of dwindling funds, huge bills and there being no space to hold individuals."
'Palpable harm': Hegseth slammed for 'screwup' of 'biggest foreign policy issue'
This is par for the Trump course.
NBC also called Hegseth’s remarks “the clearest indication yet that the United States will support negotiations between Ukraine and Russia in which Ukraine cedes territory that’s already been seized by the Kremlin.”
Former Obama National Security Spokesperson Tommy Vietor blasted the Secretary of Defense.
“Pete Hegseth f***ed up the biggest foreign policy issue on his plate on his first foreign trip. Tell me again how this cabinet is a meritocracy?” he asked, appearing to cite President Donald Trump’s attacks against DEI and vow to only install people in his government via merit.
“This was a huge f****p by Hegseth,” Vietor continued. “There’s no walking back his initial comments that Ukraine won’t join NATO or gain back all the territory lost since 2014. He wrote Putin a big check that has already been cashed. Maybe don’t make an unqualified Fox News host @SecDef?”
“Hegseth’s lack of experience is already showing. Publicly makes a series of pre-emptive concessions prior to the most important negotiations in many years, and then has to publicly explain that he had no authority to say any of those things,” observed Shashank Joshi, the defense editor for The Economist.
Trump fails again.
Putin Dead At 72 From All The Orgasms Trump And Pete Hegseth Gave him Yesterday
Who wants to bet Trump gives him a state dinner and all these MAGA Republican Nazi traitor whores in Congress show up with bells on?
“We have also agreed to have our respective teams start negotiations immediately, and we will begin by calling President Zelenskyy, of Ukraine, to inform him of the conversation, something which I will be doing right now. I have asked Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Director of the CIA John Ratcliffe, National Security Advisor Michael Waltz, and Ambassador and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, to lead the negotiations which, I feel strongly, will be successful. Millions of people have died in a War that would not have happened if I were President, but it did happen, so it must end. No more lives should be lost! I want to thank President Putin for his time and effort with respect to this call, and for the release, yesterday, of Marc Fogel, a wonderful man that I personally greeted last night at the White House. I believe this effort will lead to a successful conclusion, hopefully soon!”
And thus Trump’s self-established goalposts of ending the Ukraine war on day one keep getting moved back, and back, and back, and back …

Trump has put own 'personal safety in danger' by giving away so much power: analysis
"The leader of the Republican Party and nominal president, Donald Trump, is 78 years old and plainly in steep mental decline," Cooper wrote. "That much is demonstrated by his signing this order granting Musk so much power in the first place (also by his increasingly incoherent speech patterns). Any developing authoritarian regime with a power-sharing agreement almost invariably ends with the aspiring autocrats turning on each other, in which only one person can be triumphant. It’s not only Russian history that demonstrates that. Trump may well be putting his power or even personal safety in danger."

Dem Rep Won't Be Tone Policed By CNN: Elon Musk Is A Dick
"Rep Garcia called Elon Musk a dick on CNN after he had earlier attacked Marjorie Taylor Greene for being classless and showing dick pics of Hunter Biden who is now leading a House committee.
Elon Musk refuses to be transparent about his business dealings and finances tied to the federal government, yet demanding that the entire federal government be bowed down to his will is ludicrous and immoral.
At the same time, Rep Garcia is calling out the Georgia Klan mom for being one of the most uncouth, uncivil, unserious, and deluded persons to be running any Committee in the House of Representatives."
Don't let a dick do your thinking.
A Turd Was Revealed In All Its Stinky Glory
The Republican budget is a document that worships tax-cut Jesus while cutting programs for the dirty poors:
"WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republicans released a budget plan Wednesday that sets the stage for advancing many of President Donald Trump’s top domestic priorities, providing for up to $4.5 trillion in tax cuts and a $4 trillion increase in the debt limit so the U.S. can continue financing its bills.
The budget plan also directs a variety of House committees to cut spending by at least $1.5 trillion while stating that the goal is to reduce spending by $2 trillion over 10 years.
Budget resolutions are often considered statements of priorities. But the 45-page plan is more than just a policy blueprint as it provides specific directions to House committees to rearrange the federal money flow. GOP leaders are eyeing cuts to social services, and particularly Medicaid, as they seek massive savings."
MAGA’s 'chaotic attempt to shut down' USAID put $?500? million of food supplies at risk — and more
"President Donald Trump and Musk are criticizing USAID as wasteful. But according to Bloomberg News reporter Iain Marlow, millions of dollars of food may go to waste because of their attacks on USAID."
Starving is now an option for humanity.
'Un-Christian': Student 'nearly ruined' by evangelical education sounds alarm on public school trend
The religious right is pushing Christianity into schools, and that can have serious repercussions -- journalist Josiah Hesse knows firsthand. In a piece at the Guardian published Wednesday, Hesse writes that “Trump’s promise to ‘bring back prayer to our schools,’ shut down the Department of Education and embrace ‘school choice’ fulfills an evangelical wishlist I’d heard about throughout my childhood.”
He attended Christian schools growing up. “The longer I stayed at the school,” he writes of the evangelical school he attended junior year, “the deeper I fell into a malaise of depression and self-harm. In addition to the stress of bullies, I had trouble getting my mind around the logic of these classes, and knew that if I didn’t understand it, and believe it, eternal torture awaited me.”
Besides, “the apocalypse was at hand, so who had time for algebra?”
'Just ethics': Alabama threatens funding for schools that don’t say Pledge of Allegiance and prayer
We don't need no education. State of the Morons.
“It’s just ethics and the basics of what our country is built on,” said Republican Rep. Reed Ingram, the bill’s sponsor.
Another load of bullshit. Our country was built on freedom of worship. Mandating it is not who we are.
"Lands asked Ingram if a silent prayer would be allowed. Ingram responded that the focus was on reciting a Judeo-Christian prayer, comparing the public displays within the legislation to the nation’s motto, ‘In God We Trust.’ The motto was added to government buildings throughout the state eight years ago under the influence of conservative activists,” AL.com’s John Sharp reported. Students would not be required to take part in the prayer, Ingram said."
The nation's motto doesn't say which God. Try to use a little logic and reason.

What is white victimhood and how is it linked to white supremacy? A South African explains
"This is by no means particular to South Africa; we see it wherever whiteness is predominant. Indeed, ideas about white victimhood play a significant role in the popularity of Trump, whose call to “make America great again” harks back to an idealised past where white people (particularly men) could easily dominate the nation, the workplace and the home."

UN Experts Warn Trump Plan to “Own” Gaza Would “Shatter” International Order
Dozens of UN human rights experts are warning that President Donald Trump’s plan for ethnic cleansing and U.S. control over Gaza would have horrific consequences if implemented, threatening to regress the world to the “dark days of colonial conquest.”
They Think They Are Free — But For How Long?
How authoritarian regimes fool their supporters — until the cost comes due.
"A new poll from CBS News finds that most Americans agree with Trump’s policies of gutting protections for women and Black people while arresting and deporting Brown people here without documentation. Roughly two-thirds of respondents called him 'tough,' 'energetic,' 'focused' and 'effective.'
They think they are free.
White people approving of Trump’s actions believe marginalizing minorities, gutting the federal government, and attacking (and suing) media outlets and reporters will help them, and some of them probably will. A return of white supremacy and the marginalization of women in the workplace and politics, for example, may produce some small benefits for a few white men.
But there’s a price to be paid in what Americans like to refer to as freedom."

When President Musk Speaks, Donald Trump Listens
"After five years in a Russian prison, American Marc Fogel is finally back home. The White House and the State Department are both adamant that Fogel’s release was not part of an exchange. But all signs point to Russian money launderer Alexander Vinnik being released from custody in California, and the Kremlin said there was an exchange.
We don’t know what we don’t know. But it’s never a good sign when the American leadership is less truthful than Vladimir Putin."
Journalists have a ‘messaging problem’ when it comes to defending fact-based media
At a time when trust in the media is low, journalists must be more transparent about their work, experts say
“How do you fight propaganda? Maybe part of it is just calling it what it is and facing it as a messaging problem,” Deggans said. “The people who have advanced these false narratives are very astute about sensing the weaknesses in traditional media and attacking them.”
Step One: Acknowledge the constitutional crisis. What’s Step Two?
"There will come a time, maybe even in the next few days, when at least some of our top newsroom leaders will acknowledge the growing mountain of evidence before them and reach the obvious conclusion that Donald Trump’s actions have precipitated a full-fledged constitutional crisis."
The 19th Explains: Can Trump eliminate the Department of Education?

Because of these extremist actions, not only will people abroad go hungry, but American farmers will be left high and dry with no one to buy their crops. This is only the beginning of billionaires’ campaign to gut public services so they can hand over trillions in tax cuts to their wealthiest friends. It is shameful, and we will consider all our options to stop these actions.”

"As awful as the first three weeks of Donald Trump’s second befouling of the Oval Office have been, we have to admit, we are grimly entertained by the thought of so many conservatives who have spent years screaming about cutting wasteful and fraudulent government spending, people who have been cheering on Elon Musk’s frontal and illegal assault on the Treasury of the United States, suddenly discovering that not a dollar of that spending in their states is either wasteful or fraudulent. In fact, all the spending in their states is crucial to the continued functioning of the Republic!
Case in point: breathy-voiced trad wife Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama, who should wake up every morning thanking her Lord and Savior for Tommy Tuberville, because as long as Tubs is around, Britt will only be the second-dumbest senator from Alabama. Maybe."

Everything Elon Musk Touches Is a Conflict of Interest
"...For that matter, does Musk want the government to replace its workers with artificial intelligence because it will improve service or because he’s in the AI business? Does he think that “regulations, basically, should be gone” because of some fine-tuned understanding of bureaucratic machinery or because regulators have penalized him and his companies for improperly transporting hazardous materials; improperly managing hazardous waste; violating the Clean Air Act; failing to control erosion; illegal dumping; pumping wastewater into wetlands; exaggerating the range estimates on his cars; refusing to cooperate with an anti-child-abuse law; securities fraud; failing to comply with safety regulations on a rocket launch (which SpaceX has appealed); improperly operating a conveyor belt, leading to a worker getting pinned to a car (which Tesla has appealed); forcing workers to walk through muck filled with chemical accelerants (which the Boring Company has appealed); and securities fraud (which Musk and Tesla settled with no admission of wrongdoing in 2018).
For years, Musk has paired an extraordinary degree of international influence with a defiance bordering on arrogance in the face of civil authorities. He once said that regulators who complain about Starlink operating in their country “can shake their fist at the sky.” These days, anyone who’s upset with Washington can shake their fist at him. When Trump briefly imposed tariffs on Canada last week, Ontario premier Doug Ford added his own addendum to the national government’s retaliatory actions. The province would be “ripping up” its $100 million deal with Starlink, Ford announced, if the Trump and Musk administration went through with its threat. If operating from outer space gave him a sense of being untouchable, operating from inside the White House, as a shadow secretary-of-state and everything-czar, has heightened both his power and his exposure: Musk is the state now, and L’État, c’est Musk."

MAGA Farmer Shocked He Was Screwed Over By Trump

But USDA officials called him recently to tell him his contract with NRCS's Environmental Quality Incentives Program, or EQIP, was frozen, he said. It's not clear when the funds will be released, Holden said in his video."

Here's how Republicans defended Trump's lawless actions this week
"This week, Trump imposed tariffs on the United States' biggest trading partners, unilaterally shuttered the U.S. Agency for International Development. He also said he wants to expel Palestinians from the Gaza strip so he can turn it into a resort.
Additionally, Trump let co-President Elon Musk and his crew of racist and unqualified DOGE minions have access to the Treasury Department's payment system that disburses trillions of dollars and contains Americans' sensitive personal data.
If you thought that any of those insane actions would draw criticism from Republicans, well, you'd be wrong."

Trump Cancels Health, Environment, Puppies, Springtime, And Smiling
"What havoc is being planned next by Presidents Elon Musk and Donald Trump? All of it, Katie! Courts have been ordering the Trump administration and Elon’s Musketeens to stop illegally dismantling government agencies and snooping around in Americans’ data in lord knows how many federal databases, although who knows whether Trump and the teens are actually complying with those orders. After all, Trump is King, and therefore any judge ruling against him is obviously not legitimate."
Trump DOJ Deleted January 6 Database in Latest Attempt to Make History Vanish
On Jan. 10, the U.S. Department of Justice released a 123-page report on the 1921 racial massacre in Tulsa, Oklahoma, which claimed several hundred lives and left the thriving Black neighborhood of Greenwood in smoldering ruins. The department’s investigation determined that the attack was “so systematic and coordinated that it transcended mere mob violence.”

Where We Are Now: A Review
“...And there’s more, ever so much more, and all of it done in less than a month. There’s so much, in fact, that no mere mortal man or woman can remember it all. We're all in the same boat, unless you have a fleet of private jets, a couple of islands and plans of escape. Except for them, we're almost all on a very big ship, most of us in steerage, steaming through a cold and deep ocean with a mega iceberg appearing in the rough and dark seas ahead. But I suppose we can take heart in the good old Republican words of wisdom from oh-so-bright Republicans like former VP Dan Quayle who once said: 'I believe we are on a irreversible trend toward more freedom and democracy…but that could change.'”

Physicists Find That the Universe Could "Collapse Like a House of Cards"
"With that in mind, have you considered that our entire universe may actually be suspended in a 'false vacuum,' or in a state of faux-stability, and is merely waiting to collapse into a more stable state?
Because scientists studying quantum field theory — a framework that combines quantum mechanics, relativity, and basically all of physics — definitely have. And in a new study published in the journal Nature, researchers have simulated the processes behind this phenomenon, perhaps giving us a glimpse at how the world could dramatically end."

Trump Administration Illegally Freezes Billions in Funding For Electric Vehicle Charging
“Freezing these EV charging funds is yet another one of the Trump administration’s unsound and illegal moves. This is an attack on bipartisan funding that Congress approved years ago and is driving investment and innovation in every state, with Texas as the largest beneficiary. Throwing out states’ plans, which were carefully built together with business, utilities, and communities, only hurts America’s growing clean energy economy."
“The NEVI Program has helped the U.S. build out the infrastructure needed to support our nation’s necessary transition to pollution-free vehicles. More electric vehicle charging means better public health, reduced climate emissions, good-paying green jobs, and healthier communities.”
A darkness has descended on America
"As a nation, we have never healed from the Civil War, never achieved the reconciliation between race and rage, never fulfilled in good faith the guarantees of birthright citizenship and Black suffrage. We have made advances and experienced setbacks, in a tragic never-ending cycle that plays out over the course of about a human lifetime, from the end of slavery in 1865 to the Klan marches of the 1920s, from the Civil Rights Movement to the final gutting of the Voting Rights Act in 2023....
We can no longer wait for someone to lead us; we must lead ourselves through this darkness without a name. We must engage in peaceful protest, reasoned argument, and effective resistance. We must be civil evangels of democracy. We must come together not under the banner of any particular party, but for the “common right of humanity” as Americans. A new Abraham or Martin or John may yet emerge to guide us, but until then we must use our voices, our bodies, and our souls to preserve the tools which might someday make America truly great. To shy away from the eternal struggle is to embrace the darkness."

"We're in a very dark place in America, where we have a bully, a thug, who's the president of the United States. But it's not just in the US, it's everywhere," he said. "Authoritarianism takes us all over."
A criminal in fact. The U.S. will never live this down.
During his speech, Gere warned of the "dark marriage" of power and money "like we've never seen before."
"The fact that these irresponsible and perhaps dangerously corrosive billionaires are running everything in America right now is a danger for everyone on this planet," he said.
'Visceral fury': Trump 'hitting a wall' as judges rush to block his executive orders

The rule of law is, according to him, something to navigate around or simply ignore.”

And it is not a good one, reports the Wall Street Journal.
On the same day the government reported job growth was weaker than expected, the Journal's Rachel Wolfe and Joel Pinsker are reporting that consumer confidence is 'souring' as prices remain high — or are going up — meaning Trump's honeymoon is swiftly coming to an end."

There Is No Context In Which Trump's Attacks On 'DEI' Are A Good Thing
"Before we jump into this ourselves, allow me to note that the reason this is an absurd argument is because the two concepts are so deeply entwined that they are more or less the same thing. One cannot exist in any meaningful way without the other. This is why “socially liberal, fiscally conservative” was never a real thing — because it’s not 'socially liberal' to be cool with people starving to death and it never will be."
Erasing History, Erasing Democracy: Trump’s Authoritarian Assault on Education
"This executive order is not just an attack on critical race theory or teachings about systemic racism — it is a cornerstone of an authoritarian ideology designed to eliminate critical thought, suppress historical truth and strip educators of their autonomy. Under the guise of combating “divisiveness,” it advances a broader war on education as a democratizing force, turning schools into dead zones of the imagination. By threatening to strip federal funding from institutions that refuse to conform, this policy functions as an instrument of ideological indoctrination, enforcing a sanitized, nationalistic narrative that erases histories of oppression and resistance while deepening a culture of ignorance and compliance."
Last Chance to Stop a Dictatorship — and Trump Knows It
He’s firing the FBI, silencing the press, and dismantling Democracy: The window to fight back Is closing quickly.
"Let’s be very clear: this is how dictatorships start.
A guy who wants to be a dictator always begins by changing how the government works. Even though the majority of the nation had agreed previously that the government should do certain things in certain ways, he reassures everybody he’s got a better way and it’ll all work out.
In the process, he breaks a bunch of laws, but people mostly shrug because they don’t directly affect them. Pastor Niemöller wrote about this in 1930s Germany; to paraphrase: First they came for the government workers…

In so doing, he is carrying forward the shameful history paved by his predecessors."

That idiocy was spawned by their competitor, Amway. The DeVos Foundation has donated tens of millions to anti-LGBTQ, far-right, and Christian organizations. DeVos has also funded school voucher campaigns, saying that the primary purpose of education should be to 'advance God’s kingdom.' She wants to do that by defunding public schools."

‘Trump Brazenly Defies Laws’ is not an A17 story
"Donald Trump has repeatedly and flagrantly broken the law since reassuming the presidency. But the national media – whose mission is ostensibly to hold the powerful accountable – is treating it like the new normal.
I’m not saying our top journalists are ignoring the story – we know about it, after all, thanks to their reporting. They are dutifully and diligently giving us daily updates on the law-breaking, with the occasional news analysis reminding us that a lot of law-breaking is taking place.
But they’re not treating it like a national emergency – with banner headlines, non-stop coverage, and front-page editorials.
They’re not labeling it a constitutional crisis.
They’re not writing about how to stop it.
They’re not sounding the alarm."

Even Russian Media Can't Tell Trump's '$50 Million For Bomb Condoms For Hamas!' Lie Without Laughing
"One of our favorite (current) Trump/MAGA lies is the one that Elon Musk’s DOGE has discovered that “We’re sending $50 MILLION! Worth of CONDOMS! To HAMAS! To MAKE BOMBS!” You almost don’t care the exact derivation of the lie, what line item Fox News and the rest of the the MAGA media are purposefully lying about, which is then downloaded into Donald Trump’s mangled dementia brain for him to hallucinate about all by his lonesome.
The other day he turned it into $100 million. Why? Because he’s a liar, and because he gets confused easily.
By the way, he’s getting confused more and more easily these days, and it’s getting more and more embarrassing. That whole thing about the tariffs, when he humiliated himself by immediately backing down and letting Mexico and Canada regift presents they gave Joe Biden and calling it “victory”? The whole thing where he started babbling about developing Gaza like it was one of his roach motels in Atlantic City, only to have even his buttsniffing Republicans in Congress be (mostly) like “Oh noooooo, Grandpa, let’s put you back on top of your bedpan” and his own White House officials have spent the time ever since trying to walk it back?

The Billionaire Coup is Almost Complete and No One Stopped It — Can We Return to Democracy?

"There is one thread that ties together Trump’s destruction of American government agencies, his offer to take the Gaza crisis off Israel’s hands and dump it on our military, and senators’ and representatives’ failure to challenge him: This is how kingdoms operate. Rule by decree."
"But American democracy was kneecapped by five Republicans on the Supreme Court years ago when they ruled that money was the same thing as “free speech”; that corporations are “persons” with rights under the Bill of [Human] Rights; and that political operatives can engage in virtually unlimited purges of voting rolls, accompanied by racial- and gender-targeted laws to make it harder to vote."

With the beast out of the sea, we come to that one who, regardless of his claims as the white horse rider or peace maker, comes as a great source of darkness into the world. He comes not to save the world, but to damn the world. In essence, what we have in this chapter in the rise of the beast and the false prophet is nothing short of the ‘trinity from hell’ in that both are the product of the machinations of that old serpent, the devil or Satan."

'McCarthy era 2.0': Lawmaker describes Trump’s 'very chilling' threats to federal workers
Connolly wrote: "This is a shock and awe playbook.

This is the time for all of us who have chosen federal service to fight back. We cannot let these attacks on our democracy go unchallenged."
Connolly continued, "This is very chilling. It really is sort of like the McCarthy era 2.0 for a lot of federal employees and for all of us as well ... But they're standing up, and they're being heard. And I think that's a hopeful sign that, you know, Elon Musk and Donald Trump aren't going to, with impunity, simply have their way with the federal workforce and federal employees."
America is under attack by an internal fascist enemy that has no regard for the law. We must resist at all costs.

The Child's Garden Of GOP Excuses For Trump's Failures So Far

Democrats Officially Activated Against Trump And His 'Nazi Nepo Baby.' Are You?
"For those (us!) who have been yelling “WHERE ARE THE DEMOCRATS?!” an answer came yesterday. As Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez explained on Intsagram Live the other night, it’s no coincidence that Donald Trump’s and Elon Musks’s Nazi terrorist torching of the United States commenced the day after Congress adjourned and members went back to their districts. But as of yesterday, they were back, and hundreds showed up at the United States Treasury for a fiery rally against what Musk and his team of technovirgins were up to inside."
Why Elon Will Be Trump’s Undoing
"It’s grim out there. Limiting the damage done by Donald Trump and the Trumpists to our government and the rule of law, and reversing the momentum of Trumpism politically and culturally—all of this seems difficult and daunting.
Let’s be honest: It doesn’t just seem difficult and daunting. It is difficult and daunting.
It’s also as important a task as any in my political lifetime. And the good news is that difficult doesn’t mean impossible. Daunting needn’t be frightening.
Even critics must concede that the Trump blitzkrieg has been impressive. Many of our laws, norms, and procedures designed to provide guardrails against arbitrary, reckless, and lawless actions have proven ineffective.
But defensive lines can fall and the forces of freedom can still ultimately prevail. And vulnerabilities in the apparently formidable Trumpist movement have already begun to appear. Here’s one vulnerability: Elon Musk."
Families sue after losing access to gender-affirming care under Trump’s executive order
The lawsuit announced by LGBTQ+ advocates Tuesday was filed on behalf of transgender people under the age of 19 in Maryland, New York and Massachusetts.
"The lawsuit announced Tuesday is on behalf of transgender people under the age of 19 who had been 'thriving' after accessing gender-affirming care to treat their gender dysphoria — and who have all now been cut off from treatment following Trump’s executive order. The plaintiffs and their families live in Maryland, New York, Massachusetts and Virginia."

Saudis Blast Trump’s Call For US To Seize Gaza Strip
"President Trump’s stunning declaration that the U.S. could “take over” Gaza surprised many of his own advisers, thrilled right-wing Israelis, and deeply alarmed the governments in Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Jordan. Trump’s plan to displace two million Palestinians came at a very sensitive point of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire and hostage deal. It could even embolden both Hamas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to resume the war."
This could ignite more bloodshed.

I justified it with these words: “The point of this class is to equip you to write better than a robot.” I enforce it—in the absence of any remotely reliable “AI writing detector”—by giving failing grades to bullshit." —Paul Cristman

You’ll never guess who now controls the Proud Boys brand
"The racist Proud Boys militia grouphas lost control of its trademarked name following a federal judge’s decision, resulting in the group being prohibited from selling merchandise with its name or logo without consent from Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church, a Black church."
"The humiliating decision is a result of a default judgement from a 2020 attack against the church following a pro-Trump rally, during which Proud Boys membersdestroyed a “Black Lives Matter” sign posted in front of the church."

Could the Democrats' Lack of Resistance Be a Green Light for Tyranny?
The inaction of high profile and leadership Democrats is not just weakness — it's a betrayal of Democratic principles and thus our nation
"Under the guise of a 44-year campaign to reverse the middle-class advances of the New Deal and Great Society, rightwing billionaires and the Republicans they own have pushed a fundamentally fascist agenda that is now openly at war with America. They are engaging in a coup, finishing the work Trump started on January 6, 2021.
Trump is nakedly breaking the law right in front of the entire country, just as progressive Democrats have been predicting. Not a single elected Republican has had the courage to try to stop him or even speak out against his lawlessness, and only a handful of Democrats have found that fearlessness. That has to change."
Musk's DOGE Blitzkrieg Should Infuriate the Nation
It should. Will it? It should scare the shit out of our allies and partners in the sane world.
The Great American Freak-Out 0f 2025
"...the freak-out dial has been cranked up to 11."
"Back then, it was the fear of getting drafted and sent to Vietnam, plus our residual fears of getting nuked that were the main reasons for freaking out. Now, however, less than a month after a vindictive and quite nasty man was installed as our titular leader by a bunch of freaked out fascistic Americans who couldn't figure out whether to shit or go blind, and by insurrectionists who think themselves to be “patriots,” and by very rich nihilists who have decided that what we need to do is burn everything down and start over with them in charge, and everyone all along the watchtower is freaking out. From Wall Street to Lonely Street, from Fire Island to the Farallon Islands, from so far right to so far left that we're all meeting on the other side of that arch that bends toward madness, we're FUCKING FREAKED Out. And not in a good way."
How the Muskrat Is Messing With Your Social Security, Your Religion, and Everything Else
"But Musk hasn’t been confirmed by Congress. His “department” was never authorized by Congress. No one other than Trump has given Musk any authority. No one knows exactly who Musk’s goons are; they have not been vetted yet are handling some of the most sensitive personal information in the government."
This is mobster tactics and illegal as all get out!
We Did This to Ourselves
"Because even if we turn away for a minute from all these less-than-pleasant features of the current moment, we can’t really turn away from the situation we face. Nor can we properly grapple with this hard truth: We Americans are responsible for our situation. Trump and Musk were not imposed on us from abroad. We brought about the crisis we now confront.
And it is a crisis. It’s a crisis that threatens our political and civic well-being. It’s a crisis that threatens the future of the republic.
This was not supposed to happen in the twenty-first century.
'Of course, we twenty-first-century Americans were aware of Hamilton’s assertion in Federalist No. 1:
It has been frequently remarked that it seems to have been reserved to the people of this country, by their conduct and example, to decide the important question, whether societies of men are really capable or not of establishing good government from reflection and choice, or whether they are forever destined to depend for their political constitutions on accident and force.'
But we thought this question had been decided."
Apparently, fascism doesn't agree. But I've told you that. You just don't listen.
Musk’s USAID Shutdown: ‘This Is What the Beginning of Dictatorship Looks Like’
“We are witnessing a constitutional crisis,” said Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), speaking to reporters outside USAID. “We talked about Trump wanting to be a dictator on day one, and here we are. This is what the beginning of dictatorship looks like—when you gut the Constitution and you install yourself as the sole power. That is how dictators are made.”
“What Trump and Elon and all of their [deputies] are trying to do is take away the constitutional power of Congress,” Omar added. “We get to decide. We have the power of the purse. We get to decide where money is allocated, and it’s the executive’s power to make sure that that money gets to where it needs to get.”

Senate Finance Committee Should Not Have Advanced Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Nomination
"At the hearings, Kennedy showed nothing but disdain for the intelligence of the American people. He misrepresented his previous positions on numerous issues while continuing to endorse anti-science conspiracies, showed profound ignorance on basic facts and functions of HHS, and repeatedly said he would carry out President Trump’s chaotic and dysfunctional orders.
This is a man who, if confirmed, will do devastating damage to public health institutions and the health of the American people. The members of the Senate Finance Committee know this, as does the full Senate. It’s time for senators to stand up to billionaire threats and exercise their constitutional duties responsibly."

We Must Create a Broad Anti-Fascist Movement to Fight Back Against Trump 2.0
“A few years ago, Noam Chomsky warned about the return of fascism in contemporary capitalist societies. He pointed out that 40 years of neoliberal policies—a one-sided class war launched by the business class and its allies against the working people, the poor, the minorities, the young, and the old—had produced massive levels of inequality and increased social tension, 'yielding a breeding ground for extremism, violence, hatred, search for scapegoats—and fertile terrain for authoritarian figures who can posture as the savior.' Thus, as he put it, 'We’re on the road to a form of neofascism.'”

And you are providing comfort to our enemies, whether it’s Al Qaeda that’s trying to make gains across Africa, going south of Sudan, trying to spread their hateful ideology, whether it is ISIS who also is moving aggressively to try to foothold across Africa, whether we’re talking about throughout the Middle East, wherever we’re talking about and the big winners: big winners are China, the big winners are Russia, the big winners are Al Qaeda. The big winners are ISIS, the big winners of the United States doing this are all the people who wish us ill."

Vance; and motorcycles and coffee from southern Pennsylvania, which helped return Trump to the White House.
The full list contains food and agriculture products, textiles and furniture. Energy and tech products were not included in the first round of tariffs. A second list will be published in the coming days."

"Nearly half of Americans (49%) incorrectly think Trump scored a wider popular-vote margin last year than Biden did in 2020, according to new polling from YouGov. Only 28% correctly think Biden won by a larger margin. Wilder yet, one in four Democrats (26%) and nearly one-half of independents (46%) wrongly think Trump’s popular-vote margin was larger in 2024 than Biden’s in 2020."

The GOP’s 60-Year Conspiracy to Kill Our Democracy: None Dare Call It Treason—But I Will
It all traces back to billionaire-backed fearmongering in the 1960s—weaponizing panic around socialism and communism to crush unions, cut taxes, and hoard profits
"Ironically, Stormer’s book and the movement it ignited within the GOP is largely responsible for that party today standing on the precipice of fully endorsing fascism as an alternative to democracy in the US.
And it was started by morbidly rich men (it was all men back then) who wanted to use the threat of a “communist menace” to gut the union movement to increase their own corporate profits and CEO pay."

Trump Approval Rating Looks Fragile at Start of Second Term
"One of the great anomalies of American politics is that Donald Trump, who has been elected to the presidency twice and came very close to victory a third time, has been pretty regularly unpopular since he first came down that New York escalator in 2015. The day he was elected in 2016, his personal net favorability ratio per FiveThirtyEight was minus 24 percent, lower than any major-party presidential nominee dating back at least to the 1970s. For a moment during his first term as president, he had a positive job-approval ratio, but it went south by February 3, 2017, and never recovered. On Election Day 2020, his job-approval numbers were 44.6 percent positive, 52.6 percent negative. And he left office after the January 6 Capitol Riot with a 38.6 percent/57.9 percent ratio."

In January 2022, she took her last breath, but they kept singing and praying, waiting for a miracle that would never arrive."

More Murders Possibly Tied to Bizarre Techno-Cult Members
The supremely bizarre criminal case continues to expand in scope.
"They have been called a “death cult” and a “murder gang” and, supposedly, their bizarre beliefs were influenced by ideas that sprang up on a popular online tech forum. Little is otherwise known about the “Zizians” other than that the body count allegedly connected to the group only continues to grow.
So far, at least two murders have been tied to people allegedly connected to the group. Curtis Lind, an 82-year-old landlord was stabbed to death in Vallejo, California, on January 17th and, not long afterward, a Border Patrol agent, David Maland, was shot to death during a traffic stop in Vermont."

'There Is No Oversight': Musk Aides Lock Gov't Workers Out Of Computer Systems
"Aides to the unelected dipshit billionaire somehow charged with running the U.S. government human resources agency have locked career civil servants out of computer systems that contain the personal data of millions of federal employees. It appears that Donald and his shadow president, Elon Musk, are embarking on a hostile takeover of the federal government."
Our country has been turned over to rogues who are now screwing ux. Idiots.
Slander and Racists and Unholy Rescindments Oh My
"WTF. In just ten dystopian days, in the name of restoring America to a mythical white guy greatness, a blundering, vengeful, rabidly unfit oompa-loompa has tried to shut down the government, strong-arm the economy, whitewash culture, roll back civil rights, and in a ghastly flourish pass the buck on a fatal crash by luridly scapegoating imagined 'others': Look! Over there! A blind, black, dwarf female air traffic controller! Grim fact: 'What a horrible, pathetic little man.'
Musk’s Junta Takes Over
"WASHINGTON, D.C. — What started Thursday as a political purge of the internal security services accelerated Friday into a full-blown coup, as elite technical units aligned with media oligarch Elon Musk moved to seize key systems at the national treasury, block outside access to federal personnel records, and take offline governmental communication networks.
With rapidity that has stunned even longtime political observers, forces loyal to Musk’s junta have established him as the all-but undisputed unelected head of government in just a matter of days, unwinding the longtime democracy’s constitutional system and its proud nearly 250-year-old tradition of the rule of law. Having secured themselves in key ministries and in a building adjacent to the presidential office complex, Musk’s forces have begun issuing directives to civil service workers and forcing the resignation of officials deemed insufficiently loyal, like the head of the country’s aviation authority."
"Musk has an almost complete disregard for law, unlike even the last Trump administration."
Just what is behind the legality of this seditious action?
Incompetence and chaos as Trump 2.0 crashes and burns
"Donald Trump claimed the Colombian president had caved in as Trump ramped up the threat of tariffs last weekend after President Gustavo Petro spoke out about the terrible treatment of deported migrants and turned away two planes.
In actuality, Petro got the world stage and made a mockery of Trump in a long statement he posted—a world leader finally slamming Trump—even if much of the American media bought the White House’s line."
The Great Trump Failure is upon us.
Political reporters are actively covering up Trump’s racism
"Even as bodies were still being fished out of the Potomac River, Donald Trump went on a racist, partisan, and dishonest rant on Thursday, blaming diversity hires and Democrats for Wednesday’s calamitous nighttime collision between a passenger jet and a military aircraft outside Washington’s Reagan National Airport.
Then the traditional media covered up for his racism.
They even made excuses for him."
Failure.
Trump’s education department says book bans are a ‘hoax.’ Teachers disagree.
In South Carolina and nationally, the push against censorship continues under a Trump administration that denies reading restrictions are happening.
“There is no way to deny that our state and school districts have thwarted mine and my colleagues’ efforts to provide the highest quality education to our students without blatantly calling us liars,” Mayes said. “We have experienced what we say we have experienced. We have witnessed what we say we have witnessed.”
The criminal in charge is thwarting the U.S. Constitution.

'Very dangerous': Trump dumps billions of gallons of water farmers were counting on for summer
"A decision to take summer water from local farmers and dump it out of these reservoirs shows a complete lack of understanding of how the system works and sets a very dangerous precedent," Vink said. "This decision was clearly made by someone with no understanding of the system or the impacts that come from knee-jerk political actions."
Climate scientist Peter Gleick — who specializes in water issues — lamented on Bluesky that water resources farmers had been "relying on" was effectively "thrown away" by the Trump administration all for the sale of "a photo op & a bragging media post."
"This water will not be captured, will not be useful for cities or farms or firefighting," Gleick wrote. "It is now lost."

Protecting Us From History: Trump Cleans Out That "D.E.I. Crap”
"...Those who hate the idea of D.E.I., so far as they know what the hell it is, are aggrieved white people, goddamnit. They emerged from frat houses, from prep schools, and from privilege, cocooned from the people from 'shithole' countries, or neighborhoods where their kind or color were seldom seen. Those are the ones who mostly turn up down in Mar a Lago, or got invited to inside at the inaugural.
Outside the inaugural all those crackers, rednecks, yahoos, and trailer park trash huddled in the cold, as worshipful of Trump as ever. They traded in their distrust of the rich assholes for a sense of kinship with them, mostly based on their shared antipathy for (and you probably guessed it) diversity, equality, and inclusion.
Obviously, prejudice and xenophobia are holding this coalition of crooks and cretins together, and we shouldn’t forget that. From the exclusive golf clubs to the boardrooms right on down to the shantiest of shacks, it's all bound up with ignorant right-wing hatred of racial, cultural, or faith-based differences.
Fascism always floats on a rising tide of that sewage. Target a group of people, most any group, then define them as inferior, less than human, maybe, and voila, you got yourself the minimum qualifications for beating people in the streets who differ from you. Or cheering those you see that way. Or for your generous support for those who told you that disdain for difference was a swell way to be while asking for your donations...."
It’s not business. It’s personal.
"We are in the early stages of a constitutional crisis.
Last night the Trump administration’s Office of Personnel and Management sent a 'buyout' offer to 2 million government employees. The email appears to have been ghost written by either Elon Musk or his young lackeys, who now occupy places of power in the federal government.
This 'buy out' offer is not legal. It instructs employees to respond with “resign” in the subject line—as if that is a legally-binding document."
Trump Almost Deleted Medicaid
These are not bright guys, and things got out of hand.
"Donald Trump’s most extreme attack so far on America’s basic constitutional structure, as my colleague David Dayen explains, is his recent attempt to halt some portion of the federal loans and grants that Congress has legally obliged to be spent. An order from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), first reported by independent journalist Marisa Kabas, demanded a halt to all grants and loans throughout the government, supposedly pending some McCarthyite purge of Marxism, 'transgenderism,' and climate policy.
This is illegal. As Article I of the Constitution states, 'All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives,' and what’s more, the Impoundment Control Act of 1974 specifically forbids what Trump is trying to do. He is attempting, like the English King Charles I before him, to seize the power of the purse for himself."
Democrat Grills RFK Jr. in Heated Battle Over Vaccines: ‘Are You Lying to Congress Today…Or Did You Lie on All Those Podcasts?!

RFK Jr. Confronted With Barrage of His Bonkers Claims, Including Covid Being Targeted to Avoid Jews: ‘I Want All of Our Colleagues to Hear It!’
"As he continued, however, the senator attacked Kennedy’s record, accusing him of having 'spent 50 years of his life… peddling in half truths, peddling in false statements, peddling in theories that create doubt about whether or not things that we know are safe are unsafe.'"
“Not that every vaccine in America is unsafe, not that you can’t possibly have an adverse reaction, but that parents and children in my old school district and school districts all over this country would be better off not getting vaccinated than getting vaccinated,” he said. “Unlike his own children who are vaccinated. Unlike the people he invited to his house in Los Angeles for their party who were vaccinated. For everybody else, it’s about peddling these half truths. And he says it with such conviction that you want to believe him.”
The hypocrisy is exposed!
The Madness of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
"The media has failed the public on a crucial matter: the derangement of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Often he is described in news reports as a vaccine skeptic, when he is far more than that. He is an extreme vaccine opponent. And he has lied about this, saying he has 'never been anti-vaxx,' though he recently declared, 'There’s no vaccine that is safe and effective.' He still promotes the debunked notion that vaccines cause autism. In May 2021, he petitioned the Food and Drug Administration to stop the use of all Covid vaccines. He proclaimed it 'the deadliest vaccine ever made'—though these vaccines were estimated to have saved 20 million lives globally in the first year of their use. His anti-vaccine advocacy also played a role in a deadly measles outbreak in Samoa in 2019 that killed scores of children, and this, too, he has lied about."
'No I am not!' Elizabeth Warren yells at RFK Jr. as he dodges questions on self-dealing
"You're asking me to not sue drug companies. And I'm not going to agree to that," Kennedy said.
Warren shouted over him, "No, I am not!"
"So, let's do a quick count here of how, as secretary of HHS, if you get confirmed, you could influence every one of those lawsuits," Warren, a former Harvard professor and lawyer, continued. "Well, let me start the list. You could publish your anti-vaccine conspiracies, but this time on us government letterhead, something a jury might be impressed by."
"I don't understand," Kennedy fumbled.
"You could appoint that vaccine panel who share your anti-vax views and let them do your dirty work," Warren continued. "You could tell the CDC vaccine panel to remove a particular vaccine from the vaccine schedule. You could remove vaccines from special compensation programs, which would open up manufacturers to mass torts. You could make more injuries eligible for compensation, even if there is no causal evidence. You could change vaccine court processes to make it easier to bring junk lawsuits. You could turn over FDA data to your friends at the law firm and they could use it however, it benefited them. You could change vaccine labeling. You could change vaccine information rules. You could change which claims are compensated in the vaccine injury compensation program."
Drag this failed ass out to the alley.
German Chancellor Slams “Disgusting” Musk [VIDEO]
"German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has again criticised billionaire Elon Musk, calling the tech mogul’s latest show of support for the German far right 'disgusting.'
Speaking to CNN Tuesday, Scholz slammed Musk’s involvement in Germany’s upcoming February election and weighed in on the billionaire’s plea for Germans to 'move beyond' the guilt of the Holocaust during a rally over the weekend.
'I disagree completely with Elon Musk and what he is doing,' Scholz said. 'What is new is that he is intervening in favor of right-wing politicians all over Europe. And this is really disgusting,' Scholz explained. 'It is not good for the democratic development in all the European Union.'

"Yesterday, the Medicaid payment portal was shut down in all 50 states; they came back up when a federal judge put Trump’s illegal impoundment of federal funds on hold until February 3rd.
And it wasn’t just Medicaid. The Trump administration shut down Pell grants, federally supported student loans, veterans homeless shelters, veterans suicide prevention programs, school meals, home heating assistance, housing assistance, food stamps, food for women and infants, childcare, Headstart, child abuse investigations, rape crisis centers, and hundreds of other programs."
This should let America know we have a cancer infection capable of killing us all.
'Musk lackeys' have seized control of key federal office: report
"The unglamorous but key federal office that sent out a mass "deferred resignation" offer to federal employees on Tuesday has reportedly been taken over by people with ties to Elon Musk, the world's richest man and a close confidant of U.S. President Donald Trump.
Citing unnamed sources, Wired reported Tuesday that "the highest ranks of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM)—essentially the human resources function for the entire federal government—are now controlled by people with connections to Musk and to the tech industry." Musk reportedly visited OPM headquarters late last week."

‘See you in court’: Civil rights groups challenge Trump’s trans military ban
“[The executive order] will harm readiness because it will remove servicemembers that the military has invested millions of dollars in training,” Lambda Legal Counsel and Nonbinary and Transgender Rights Project Director Sasha Buchert told Daily Kos."
“Thousands of transgender troops are combat-tested, having been deployed to war zones and executed missions with distinction, many of whom are senior personnel with decades of experience. It will hurt unit cohesion because it will discriminate against otherwise qualified service members, sending the message that identity rather than merit is what is important and that some discrimination is acceptable,” Buchert added.

'Dangerous precedent': Bill criminalizing local votes draws outrage – even from Republicans
" The felony charge, punishable by up to six years in prison and a $3,000 fine, would apply to any public official who votes in favor of a sanctuary law, policy or on non-binding resolutions.
Sen. Todd Gardenhire, the Republican chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, blasted the provision Tuesday as a “dangerous precedent.”
“We are a Republic, and a Republic is one that we elect people to vote the way they feel like is best for the district, the city, county or the state,” he said."

"Last week," Lewis observes, "Mark Zuckerberg announced that Meta was ending its DEI programs and changing its platform policies to allow more discriminatory and harassing posts….

Jewish collaborators also worked with Hitler's Nazis too.
Why is Trump coverage so feeble?
"You simply cannot cover Trump’s second term accurately and responsibly if you are not willing to situate his acts as part of a terrifying descent into authoritarianism, racism, and cruelty.
And the mainstream political media – for a variety of reasons — is not willing to do anything of the kind.
Instead of explaining what’s really going on, therefore, they are just telling you what happened – and with Trump, that’s really only a small part of the picture.
Rather than speaking truth to power, they have become stenographers with amnesia, hiding the truth through the use of anodyne adjectives, convoluted phrasing and buried leads."

Here’s the insane reason Boebert thinks young people can’t get jobs
"The federal minimum wage has remained at $7.25 an hour since 2009. If someone worked 40 hours a week for all 52 weeks in the year and took no days off, they would only earn $15,080—a salary below the poverty line and impossible for anyone to live on. In Boebert's state of Colorado, the minimum wage is $14.81."

How To Join The Resistance: 2025 Edition
"First, you’re never going to win a head on battle with an adversary that’s got you outgunned. That’s not the point of the Resistance. The point is to create friction, make it hard for your adversary to operate, to increase transaction costs.
Second, resistance doesn’t have to be a dramatic act. It can be a small act, like losing a sheet of paper, taking your time processing something, not serving someone in a restaurant. Small acts taken by thousands have big effects.
Third, use your privilege and access if you’ve got it. He and his buddies stole weapons from the Nazis by driving up with a truck to the weapons depot, speaking German, acting like it was a routine pick up, and driving away."

Dozens of People Died in Arizona Sober Living Homes as State Officials Fumbled Medicaid Fraud Response
"At least 40 Native American residents of sober living homes and treatment facilities in the Phoenix area died as state Medicaid officials struggled to respond to a massive fraud scheme that targeted Indigenous people with addictions.
The deaths, almost all from drug and alcohol use, span from the spring of 2022 to the summer of 2024, according to a review of records from the Maricopa County Office of the Medical Examiner. Over half died as officials ignored calls to address lax oversight later shown to have contributed to thousands of patients being recruited into sham treatment programs.
Patients continued to die even after Arizona officials in May 2023 announced a sweeping investigation of hundreds of facilities. By then, the fraud was so widespread that officials spent the next year seeking to halt Medicaid reimbursements to behavioral health businesses accused of wrongdoing."

'Delusional mythology': Hard lessons ahead for Trump supporters because they don’t understand capitalism
"One delusional mythology about American capitalism that has been instilled in We the People is that we somehow have a guaranteed right to prosperity," Logis writes. "This imaginary right has been deployed by politicians who are afraid of educating their constituents about how our model of commerce actually works…. With due respect to the many Americans who voted for Donald Trump, their overwhelming sense of entitlement dwarfs that of the hard-working immigrants who cut their grass, scrub pots and pans in the restaurants they frequent, and care for their kids and elderly loved ones."

The terrifying signs of 'collective stress' in Trump’s America
"Most people who voted for Trump under the mistaken belief that he would improve their lives and 'restore' the nation have no experience living under autocratic or authoritarian regimes. They perhaps voted to 'shake things up' and believed they were supporting a leader who will 'break the rules' to 'get things done.' That will turn out to be a Faustian bargain. While the MAGA are likely to feast on the proverbial fat of the land, the rank and file will be feasted upon like everyone else."

The stunning real story behind Trump's first week
"The New York Times describes Trump as leading “a global wave of hard-line conservative populism.”
"Rubbish.
What Trump is undertaking has nothing whatever to do with conservatism, which is about conserving institutions and shrinking the size of government. And it has nothing to do with populism, which is about confronting elites.
Trump is leading a move to replace democracy with oligarchy.
He’s implementing a plan to make the wealthiest people in America far wealthier and more powerful, including Trump himself, and to turn American democracy into a giant corporation run by a handful of absurdly rich men.
He thinks he can accomplish this by getting the rest of us so angry at one another — over immigration, LGBTQ+ rights, abortion, diversity, and the like — that we don’t look upward and see where most of the wealth and power have gone.
Trump’s divisive policies will cause great harm, to be sure, and we must do everything we can to protect those who are vulnerable to them. But his cruel divisiveness is deflecting attention from the main event...."

All of this complete horses---I am seeing from many people I respect telling us to stay calm — that all this was to be expected.
While I believe this is coming from a genuine place of goodness, it is bordering on gaslighting.
So let me tell you something, dammit: Anybody telling you to stay calm just because 'all this was to be expected' is either a damn fool, or lying to themselves and you, because NONE of them have been through a transition like this in America.
All this 'stay calm, all this was to be expected' stuff might be easy on the ears, but it is impossible to digest.
We are in deep, deep trouble right now, patriots, and it is not only OK to say that, it is paramount we do. We might yet get through all of this, but that won’t mitigate for one damn minute all the trouble and pain people are in RIGHT NOW."
Voters reveal 'giant divide' over Trump’s early moves: 'I wish he would use more discernment'
Six days into Donald Trump's second presidency, his voters are displaying "a giant divide" when it comes to how swiftly the MAGA leader is working to bring his campaign promises to life, according to CNN.
The news outlet is making efforts to follow the nearly 100 voters who agreed to be a part of CNN's "'All Over The Map' project, an effort to track the 2024 campaign through the eyes and experiences of voters who live in swing states or are part of critical voting constituencies."
CNN's goal, according to the report, is to gauge whether the MAGA administration loses or gains support over the next few monthsfrom both Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris voters.

“We Don’t Fret, We Fight,” Immigrant Rights Activists Say After ICE Raid in NJ
Federal agents with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement carried out a warrantless raid on Thursday targeting a local establishment in Newark, New Jersey, according to Newark Mayor Ras Baraka — who decried the move as an “an egregious act” in violation of the of the U.S. constitution.
Federal agents detained both undocumented residents and citizens, including a U.S. military veteran, Baraka said in a statement Thursday.
The local outlet PIX11 reported that ICE agents targeted the Ocean Seafood Depot, a wholesale seafood distributor. Store owner Luis Janota told the outlet that three people were taken into custody, including a Puerto Rican employee who is a military veteran. People from Puerto Rico have U.S. citizenship.
'We don’t fret, we fight,' wrote the New Jersey Alliance for Immigrant Justice, which is distributing materials to inform community members about their rights."
By Dehumanizing Others, Trump Makes Sure We Remain Our Own Worst Enemies
"Trump is claiming the power and authority to dehumanize whom he wants, e.g., the country’s 11 million 'illegals,' whom he wants to turn into deportees. In the process, he is making sure that we remain our own worst enemies. If Americans hate most of the planet beyond their borders—and go to war with it—they are creating the very reality they fear. They are creating, or continuing to create, hell on Earth. Those who see the irony in this—linking, for instance, 'Christian' with 'white' and 'nationalist'—must once again take that first step, beyond the worst of who we are, into a future that values all of us."

Trump’s War on DEI Opens the Door to Jim Crow’s Return
"It’s bad enough that Trump and his advisers believe the official discrimination against Black people that characterized U.S. laws and politics from the founding of the Republic until the 1960s is not a problem worth addressing anymore. It’s even worse to claim that the only way to prevent discrimination is to get rid of any effort to address it. That way lies a return to white supremacy in the guise of color-blind “meritocracy.” And it’s also a terrible trend for the women and LGBTQ+ folk who have benefited from the same laws and policies as they were extended into the 21st century."
Welcome to The Land of the Happy Negro!
Donald Trump and the Return of Ransom-Note Politics
"For Trump, this simple power dynamic is built into his central policy proposal this year: crippling tariffs against Canada, China, Mexico, and any other country that crosses him. For rank-and-file citizens, tariffs represent a threat to their cost of living, by potentially jacking up the price of just about everything. But to large corporations, the arrangement is more straightforward: It’s basically a ransom demand. In theory, tariffs apply to everyone in a given sector, but the government can issue exemptions. Who gets exemptions? Who do you think? A recent study in the Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis found a correlation between political support and the granting of tariff exemptions—and conversely, that companies that had politically opposed the administration were more likely to have their requests denied."

She was the only person in the room with the balls to do so. Cecil Richards and her mom showed much same courage and character down in Texas where too few men rise up in opposition to creeps like Gregg Abbott, Ted Cruz or so many other cowards who do a sorry-ass imitation of courage by bullying desperate young pregnant women or little Mexican kids, modeling to other Americans how they think real men ought to behave.

Is Pete Hegseth’s Nomination In Danger Again, Or Are These Latest Allegations Also Totally Fine?
Absolutely. With the Trump trash piles.
"If you watched Pete Hegseth’s confirmation hearing, you saw a bunch of Republican senators fawning all over the creeper with the Crusades tattoos who gives all the white supremacist Christian extremists little stiffies underneath their little LARPing outfits."

The Day of the Locusts: Just Another Monday in America
"You don’t have to be a cynic to arrive at the conclusion that bullshit and money are both pretty damn powerful. If you watched any of the folderol yesterday, you saw rich, powerful, and almost exclusively white folk celebrating Trump, themselves, and the triumph of money and bullshit, all on full and naked display. The power increases exponentially when money and bullshit throw in together to form an alliance. And there it was, gloating, preening, fawning, and genuflecting.
A skip and a hop through history provides ample evidence of how the money/bullshit alliance has served to keep the powerless quiescent. It has consistently made serfs and peasants of most of us, turning far too many into frightened people who support their oppressors as bullshit does so much to maintain wealth and power for the many, and misery for the masses."
Where the Right-Wing Campaign Against Birthright Citizenship Comes From—and Why It’s Wrong
"EASTMAN AND HIS COMRADES at the Claremont Institute base their theory upon an interpretation of a particular phrase in the Fourteenth Amendment: 'All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.' The claim is that the word 'jurisdiction' really means 'allegiance'; children born to illegal aliens here in the United States owe their allegiance to whatever country their parents are from.
But America has never recognized the doctrine of enforced allegiance. We actually went to war with Great Britain over this. In the 1790s, British warships began boarding American vessels and impressing Americans into the Royal Navy. Britain did not recognize American naturalization. Once an Englishman, always an Englishman.
America rejected Britain’s claim."
GOP serving 'broligarchs' and doing 'nothing to bring down grocery prices': Jamie Raskin
"Rep Jamie Raskin (D-MD) unleashed on the GOP for pandering to tech 'broligarchs' and using immigration as a smokescreen to distract from President Trump's actions since he took the oath of office Monday.
In his statement during Wednesday's hearing on immigration enforcement, Raskin slammed the House GOP for enabling Trump's stunts by promoting 'tiny little messaging bills' that accomplished nothing."
What esle can we expect from a dumb criminal but nothing? Someone missed the meaning did they?

All the President’s Lies
"Traditional media coverage of Donald Trump‘s second inauguration was so obsequious and so normalizing that the average news consumer could easily have missed the essential fact that almost everything he said was a lie.
His inaugural address was full of lies, from beginning to end, based on the false premise that the country is in a shambles and needs to be rescued.
Then impeach him now. He's the shambles.
What a new ICE directive on ‘sensitive zones’ could mean for domestic violence victims

Trump Slips In Dangerous Anti-Abortion Language Into Executive Order
...Monday night included one that cemented language at the executive level to delegitimize transgender identities. But within the fold of that order, titled "Defending Women From Gender Ideology Extremism And Restoring Biological Truth To The Federal Government," lay another damaging detail: the elevation of fetal personhood to the national stage.
"'Female' means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell," the order reads in part. "'Male' means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell."
"Unfortunately, there seems to be a misunderstanding by the authors of the executive order: all fetuses have phenotypically female genitalia until they reach six to seven weeks of gestation, at which point some fetuses can start to be visually differentiated as male, according to the National Institute of Health."
Evil incarnate has been granted power to pervert. Resist it.

Donald Trump's Inauguration TV Ratings Compared to Joe Biden's
"On Monday, 24.6 million viewers tuned in to watch Donald Trump being sworn into office, estimates from the data analytics company Nielsen showed, which was lower than the viewership Joe Biden's inauguration received four years earlier.
Newsweek contacted Trump's team for comment by email on Wednesday outside standard working hours."
Of course the idiot will deny it. The rest have forgotten we defeated both the Nazis and the treason of the Confederacy. We will continue to resist these miscreants.
However, there were still those who were willing to freeze their dumb asses outside to see a fascist criminal take power.
Dear Elected Democrats: Are You Collaborator Or Are You Opposition? Make Your Choice
"We think we speak for most informed Democrats and leftists and left-leaning voters and progressives and liberals — yep, the whole spectrum! — when we say 'OK boys and girls, get the collegiality circle jerk out of your system now, because the time for fucking around ended yesterday.'
And yes, working together in any way with the Trump administration — AKA collaborating with Nazis and fascists and terrorist-sympathizers and traitors and perverts and sex pests and sometimes all of the above — is fucking around.
You’re either a collaborator, or you’re part of the opposition."

Trump Admin Accused of Using AI to Draft Executive Orders
"Mere hours after being sworn in as the 47th president of the United States on Monday, returning President Donald Trump got to work signing dozens — and counting — of executive orders, which range from commands for the US to withdraw from the Paris climate agreement and the World Health Organization to ordering an end to birthright citizenship and renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the 'Gulf of America.'
But while the executive actions range in scope, legal experts have called attention to some curious common threads: bizarre typos, formatting errors and oddities, and stilted language — familiar artifacts that have led to speculation that those who penned them might have turned to AI for help."
A person as stupid as he is must have some sort of help to get out of bed let alone write anything literate.
Trump's speech raises the old question: Is he evil or merely stupid?
"In Donald Trump’s new conceit, America was a hellhole in 2016, he made it great, then former President Joe Biden broke everything, but thanks to Trump’s 2024 election win, everything will be great again. Or, as he said in his inaugural address on Monday, 'The golden age of America begins right now.'
You know he is full of shit. I know he’s full of shit. We’d like to think everyone around him knows so as well, but does he? It’s the age-old question: Is Trump evil or merely stupid?
If his inaugural speech says anything, it’s that he is delusional in what he thinks he can accomplish."
The stupid one is the one who can't admit he's both.

Fanone Lays Into Trump, MAGA, After Pardon Of Insurrectionists
"COOPER: I'm wondering when you heard the news and what what's going through your mind tonight?
FANONE: I just heard the news from your producers a few moments ago, and the only thing that is going through my mind right now is that, this is what the American people voted for.
Donald Trump has been promising these pardons ever since he announced his candidacy in Waco, Texas, the scene of one of the most notorious battles between American law enforcement and the American extremist extremist movement that resulted in the death of numerous law enforcement officers.
Thanks America
COOPER: This feels like a betrayal to you.
FANONE: Oh I have been betrayed by my country. Rest assured, I have been betrayed by my country and I've been betrayed by those that supported Donald Trump.
Whether you voted for him because he promised these pardons or for some other reason, you knew that this was coming, and here we are."
Betrayed. Yes. There will more of it.

Trump ushers in 'whole new era of scamminess' now that 'the mask is fully off': analysis
"The farcical nature of the inauguration was a fitting reminder that everything about the MAGA movement is a scam," Marcotte writes. "The weekend before the inauguration, Trump cashed in on his cultists' faith with a grift so obvious it would make Jim Bakker blush: releasing meme coins named after himself and his wife. Judd Legum of Popular Info summed up the move with, 'Trump has turned the inauguration itself into a brazen grift, launching a meme coin hours before being sworn in.'"

No more laws in America except Trump law. Impeach him now.
Maddow Rips Trump: Birthright Citizenship Cannot Be Undone By Executive Order
"That is a provision that is explicitly in the Constitution in the plain language of the 14th Amendment, but Trump today will reportedly try to abolish it, with an executive order, even though executive orders can't override the Constitution. Just as executive orders cannot override the law."
Convicted criminals don't follow law. Duh!

Felon To End All Trans Rights And Diversity Policies
And he can call anyone a "trans" should he choose to do so.
"Trump on Monday plans to sign executive orders proclaiming that the U.S. government will recognize only two sexes, male and female, and ending “radical and wasteful” diversity, equity and inclusion programs inside federal agencies, according to senior White House officials. The officials grouped both orders under the incoming Trump administration’s wider “restoring sanity” agenda."

ACLU to Sue Trump Administration Over Birthright Citizenship
"ONE OF THE LEADING CIVIL RIGHTS ORGANIZATIONS in the country is set to sue the Trump administration over the president’s pending executive order to end birthright citizenship, according to three senior immigration leaders."
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is preparing the lawsuit in anticipation of Trump moving to end the practice enshrined in the Constitution’s Fourteenth Amendment, which states that “all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States.”
A Cold and Dark Day in America
"Countless people living and dead have borne more sorrows than we may have yet known, but we have known our share of sadness, too. No one gets through this vale without tears.
But I can think of no sadder day than this one, January 20, 2025, a day that will live in infamy no matter how much effort and expense goes into prewriting history and sugarcoating this bitter pill. We are destined to be fed more lies more steadily by even more sources of fascist re-fashioning of reality. History shows little hope that the richest people will ever show mercy to those who are not rich. The weight of darkness descending on us is palpable. The sense of powerlessness is hard to bear. Hope is hard to muster. We know bad things are coming; we take refuge in a desperate desire that the future will be less bad than we imagine. We steel ourselves."
Takeover by Rogue Secessionists From Within — Fortress America Nibbled to Death by Ruthless Ducks
"Setting internal explosives amped by oligarchic betrayals, MAGA doesn’t need open violence to enforce its anti-democratic coup d'etat
Not every defiant U.S. secession comes with cannon shots targeting the Union, echoing the unprovoked attack on Ft. Sumter. History speaks to open, violent secession, but far more common: betrayal from within. At least the elitist, anti-democratic Confederacy served up to the Union a visible rebellion spouting states' rights’ excesses the North could not abide. The scorching of the Old South then triggered a serial, historic array of human, citizen, and voting advances true to the best of America, fortified (until now) by Constitutional amendments. That could happen again, with a potent response to the inevitable Trumpist glut of excesses."
Welcome To Wonkette's NO-NAUG MONDAY Dance Party!

Instead, we’re celebrating the real holiday, Martin Luther King Day, with a dance party consisting of a playlist I made (I made a playlist!) of every Black artist I love plus the Bee Gees and Dr. John, who can pass. At 3 p.m., your friend Ziggywiggy will have a matinee movie showing of Selma. Moral arc of the universe, etc., etc. We can hope. Maybe some day.
We’re gearing up for a hard four years. We’ll need dancing and music and days off from the fuckstorm. Please don’t comment about the inauguration if you’re silly or a glutton enough to be watching it. This is a naug-free zone."
Trump Just Inherited Sole Authority to Launch Nuclear Weapons on a Whim
"The global security landscape has changed dramatically since Donald Trump’s first term, but one thing that remains constant is U.S. presidential authority to use nuclear weapons. From the moment he takes the oath of office until the moment his successor assumes the presidency, Trump has the authority and the means to order a nuclear attack at any moment and for any reason if he chooses to do so."
Trump Makes Frightening Far Right Promises in Inauguration Speech
"Donald Trump has officially been sworn in as the 47th president of the United States.
The quadrennial ceremony was moved inside due to cold weather, held in the rotunda of the U.S. Capitol building — the very place where, four years earlier, hundreds of Trump loyalists violently disrupted the certification of the 2020 election after Trump lost the race to Joe Biden, an event that led to hundreds of participants being charged and convicted."
A convicted and sentenced criminal is now the leader of our country? Shame and disgrace has been created by America.
