He’s golfing with the Saudis in Florida while your retirement savings evaporates by the second. Never before have we seen an American President ruin the economy on purpose.

So much for Chic-fil-a traditional Christian values.

If the federal government can disappear a legal US permanent resident without reason or warrant, then they can disappear US citizens too. Anyone - left, right, or center - who has highlighted the importance of constitutional rights + free speech should be sounding the alarm now.

Kelly: I served in the United States Navy for 25 years. I spent 15 years at NASA, risking my life flying the space shuttle. And the only oath I can think of that maybe Elon Musk has sworn is an oath to his own checking account, to his pocketbook—an oath, maybe, to ruining the lives of veterans. I had veterans in my office last week who, after really good performance reports, found out that Elon Musk fired them for poor performance. He has ruined these people’s lives. They were serving our country again in very valuable roles, and they did not deserve to get fired by an email from an unelected billionaire

Only an idiot would think we should eliminate: - Emergency response in natural disasters - Education and healthcare for disabled children - Clean air and water programs - Gang crime investigations - Monitoring of nursing home abuse - Nuclear reactor regulation - Cancer research

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Rep. Jasmine Crockett exposes near $1 billion in new contracts for Musk in just 2 weeks: "This is nothing more than a money grab. He's not out there trying to save money for the American people, he's lining his pockets."

We are witnessing a very sad moment in American history. The President of the United States is aligning himself with the dictator of Russia, Vladimir Putin, to undermine the independence of Ukraine and its democracy. Here are my thoughts:

‼️Amazon's Surviving Lake Lanier documentary just released which tells the story of a Black town in Georgia, Oscarville, where in the 1950s, the residents were dispossessed of their land and forcibly removed, and the town was flooded in order to create a reservoir. Apparently, some RACISTS are upset with the telling of HISTORY, so they are trying to get it CANCELLED by MASS REPORTING it to AMAZON! QUESTION 🙋🏽‍♂️: Why are they so upset with the telling of factual history? Why do they try to cancel anything they don't like?

Wilmore: This is a type of hypocrisy that I've seen for a while now. There's always been this kind of hyperventilating rightly so over protecting middle class workers.. unless they work for the government, then they don't count. Then they're not real Americans. All of a sudden, their jobs are disposable. You can cut them off immediately.  That is a different type of elitism that has now crept into the right where there's elitism against working class people who have civil service jobs. When I was growing up, for black people, people of color, civil service jobs was one of the only ways to get into the middle class.

Louisiana hasn't had an uncontested execution in more than two decades. Gov. Landry wants to change that and begin using gas to kill people, starting next month. Let's raise our voices to say "Don't kill for me!"

“We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests,” President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, January 6, 1941

This is like a case study in extreme apartheid. They built a cage around a Palestinian family's home to separate it from the Jewish settlement surrounding it. The only gate to the cage is controlled by the Israeli army.

President Trump’s Kennedy Center announcement appears to be blatantly illegal. U.S. Code says general trustees “shall hold office … for a term of 6 years” - nothing about the President having power to remove - and the Chairperson is appointed by the Board. A president cannot appoint himself.

The fuk? He said this. Out loud...

Thank you @WBUR for your continued coverage about the plight of my #Marlborough constituent, including finding out he had been transferred to #Texas.

Senator John Kennedy wants people on Medicaid to "get off your ass" and get jobs. Some of the most common disabilities among Medicaid recipients are: Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injuries, schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, traumatic brain injuries. Last time I checked, MAGA was screeching about federal initiatives to give people with these conditions jobs.

"Whoever exalts race, or the people, or the State, or a particular form of State, or the depositories of power, or any other fundamental value of the human community --- however necessary and honorable be their function in worldly things -- whoever raises these notions above their standard value and divinizes them to an idolatrous level, distorts and perverts an order of the world planned and created by God; he is far from the true faith in God and from the concept of life which that faith upholds." Pope Pius XI, "Mit Brennender Sorge," ("With burning anxiety"), an encyclical read from the pulpits of all German churches on Palm Sunday, 1937, condemning Nazism and the increasing "idolatry" of the state.

DOGE is not a legal government agency. It doesn't exist. The people who are working for Musk are not government employees nor are they contracted employees. They have no legal basis I can find that would allow them access to protected government data. There is zero oversight.

"We should not be giving Black people the same vaccine schedule that's given to Whites, because their immune system is better than ours." ---RFK Jr. So what vaccine schedule should I have received? His answer was dangerous. I will be voting no.
