  1. "In the memo released by the White House, U.S. Navy Capt. Sean Barbabella, physician to the president, wrote: "President Donald Trump remains in excellent health, demonstrating strong cardiac, pulmonary, neurological, and overall physical function." "

    That's his third medical checkup in 13 months. What's worse, the lying or the frequency of the tests?

  3. This statement seemed pretty telling.

    US conservatives seem to assume the military can do anything unless proven otherwise. In theory there are limits, but in practice they think the military is the awesome unstoppable force.

    This attitude explains a lot.

  5. Trump's DOJ included terms barring the IRS form pursuing claims against him or his family

    A one-page document posted on the DOJ website early Tuesday includes a sweeping release under which the IRS is “forever barred and precluded” from pursuing “examinations” of Trump, “related or affiliated individuals,” and related trusts and businesses.

    The waiver specifically encompasses “tax returns filed before the effective date” of the settlement, which was Monday.

    Forever grift. The presidency is his slush fund and get out of jail free card.

  9. In the long term, the euro could even replace the dollar as the reserve currency.
    Incidentally, I already Putin and Orbán to be history, since Russia under Putin is degenerating into a regional power and may eventually break up into many separate states.

  10. The billionaire tax needs to be made THE litmus test for all Democratic candidates for office.

    Corporate Democrats have been the root failure mode of the Democratic Party since at least Bill Clinton.

    We must remove the corporate Democrats from power right after we remove Trump from power, or we will just get an even worse Trump in the near future.

    If a candidate is not willing to support a billionaire wealth tax, then we know for sure they are a corporate Democrat and should not be elected.

    No, that's not what #CitizensUnited did, though there is so much misinformation about the ruling.

    In the ruling, unlimited expenditures was part of what was asked for, the SCOTUS refused, putting limits at the core of the ruling it handed down.

    These stories of unlimited power handed to corporations are just sensationalized clickbait. They don't reflect what the ruling actually said, often getting it exactly backwards.

    Try this on for size.
    It occured to me the peopel in the curerent admininstration are all in the movie/musical about Wicked.

    Yes, I used an AI to use proper terms and summerize (I rarely do this just FYI)

    Wizard of Oz Charismatic illusionist, figurehead of power Donald Trump – maintains control through spectacle, propaganda, and illusion

    Madam Morrible Propaganda enforcer, spins lies to support Wizard is Pam Bondi/Ice Barbis – loyal defender, messaging enforcer

    Glinda Popular, ambitious, complicit but pragmatic are the Rank-and-file GOP members – go along despite knowing corruption, driven by ambition

    Elphaba Branded “wicked,” principled resister is the opposition/whistleblowers/protestors – vilified truth-tellers, “No Kings Day” activists

    Fiyero Starts complicit, defects to resist is the Defecting GOP members – break ranks, choose principle over ambition

    Nessarose Rigid, insecure, clings to power are the hardline loyalists – double down on Trumpism out of ideology or fear

    Boq Innocent citizen, transformed into Tin Man is the Ordinary citizens/minor players – dehumanized, reshaped into tools of the movement

    Dr. Dillamondrepresents the Marginalized intellectual, silenced by regime Immigrants, marginalized groups, resisters – targeted and stripped of voice

    Flying Monkeys Enforcers of Wizard’s will Stephen Miller, JD Vance, others – policy architects and attack-dogs who intimidate dissent

    I'm sure there's countless movies and plays and book that fit, but Wicked seems topical now.

  16. It's important to remember that the majority of Americans aren't politically active at all; then of the remaining 30-40% a lot of them will just vote however their parents voted. #uspolitcs

  17. Gotta say, it looks like the Dems handed the baddies a win here....again.
    The Voters stepped up, Chuck Schumer and the Dirty Eight did not.

    Has he resigned yet?

  18. I really could not care less about yet another think piece titled "I study Fascism, and this is why I left America".

    Good for you. Those of us who have not fled America are trying to clean up the problem you ran away from, so you'll have to forgive me if I pass over the opportunity to read your profound wisdom on the matter.

  19. The thing is,.... I don't trust Chuck Schumer to play this, and it's not even my country but I can see it...

  20. remember #DickCheney truly. as he was and by the fruits of his evil actions, not by what mainstream media wants us to remember him. i remember the "war on terror" and i grew up in during/in its aftermath.

    i saw the damage abroad, learned about the deaths it/he caused, and the lie it was started on; #WeaponsOfMassDestruction (WMD) in Iraq, was a fabrication. i didn't/don't appreciate being lied at from every angle, even if i was a four year old

    even then, the usa had/has actual #WMD! #uspolitcs
