I’m just going to post this every few days rather than arguing with faceless, nameless trolls in the comments.

Let John F. Kennedy shine again, alone in his class, as he should! "Not a Pax Americana enforced on the world by American weapons of war. Not the peace of the grave or the security of the slave." JFK "For, in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's future. And we are all mortal." JFK #uspoli #cdnpoli #polc #onpoli

Good god this is a crazy interview. Listen as Scott Pelley describes how Bari Weiss wanted journalists at CBS to cover the killing of Renee Good in Minnesota. This is why we can’t have oligarchs running our news outlets, this is absolutely devastating.

Under Trump, the Forest Service is gutting labs that cost ONE DOLLAR in rent so they can cram scientists into a Fort Collins office that costs taxpayers a million a year. As reported by NPR, Trump's 2027 budget zeroes out Forest Service research entirely. Three hundred and nine million dollars, gone. Fifty-seven of the agency's seventy-seven research stations are on the chopping block. These are the forests generations of Americans have hiked, hunted, camped, and prayed in. Sacred ground for almost anyone who's ever stepped outside in this country. And the "efficiency" pitch? A scam. The research station in Hilo, Hawaii sits on 30,000 acres the federal government rents for a one-time fee of ONE DOLLAR, locked in until 2067. The Michigan Tech lease? One dollar paid in 1963, free ever since. Another site costs the agency $600 a month for two rooms. The destination they want everyone shipped to in Fort Collins runs taxpayers a million a year. Read that again. They're closing dollar leases to expand a million-dollar lease. Scientists in Baltimore have spent years planting white oak saplings that need three decades to mature. You can't FedEx a forest to Colorado. You can't manage a Hawaiian ecosystem from a cubicle in Utah. Researchers told NPR they'll quit before they relocate. Which is the point. Meanwhile, Trump has openly pledged to ramp up logging on federal land. Gut the scientists who document the damage, and there's nobody left to sound the alarm when ancient forests get clear-cut for profit. These are the people who tell us when wildfire season turns deadly. Who track invasive beetles eating through pine. Who teach cities how to recycle dead trees instead of dumping them in landfills. You don't dismantle the world's largest forestry research network because you're worried about a maintenance bill. You dismantle it because somebody plans to take a chainsaw to what the public owns and doesn't want a paper trail. The forests don't belong to Tom Schultz. They don't belong to Trump. They belong to every American who has ever stood quiet under a hundred-year-old tree and understood, for one second, that some things are not for sale. Defend them now, or explain it to your grandkids later.

This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it. More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months. And here’s the part that should make your blood boil. Sixteen of these 27 donors were facing federal enforcement actions, antitrust reviews, labor cases, securities charges. Many of those cases have been quietly dropped or scaled back since Trump took office. You write a check, your legal problems disappear. That’s not a coincidence. The White House won’t even release the full donor list. They’re hiding it on purpose, because daylight is the one thing pay-to-play can’t survive. A federal judge already ruled ballroom construction has to stop until Congress authorizes it. Government is supposed to serve the people, not auction itself off to the highest bidder. When access goes to whoever pays the most, working families always end up paying the price. We either end the corruption, or the corruption will end us. wapo.st/3QmJjSz

Trump is reportedly about to hand them $300 BILLION to end a war that he started but can't win. This is what losing a forever war looks like.

Allow me to be the first to congratulate the MAGA morons, who spent years howling about the $1.7B that Obama returned to Iran. Your 4D chess master is handing Iran $300B, to open the Strait of Hormuz, that Obama kept open for free. Brilliant!

BREAKING: SUPERSTAR! Senate candidate James Talarico hilariously destroys his MAGA opponent for spreading the pathetic lie that he's a vegan. They're REALLY grasping for straws now... "I'm an eighth generation Texan. I've been eating barbecue since before Ken Paxton's first indictment," State Rep. Talarico told MeidasTouch. "And if all they have on me is lying about me being a vegan, I feel pretty good about our chances this November." The Trump-endorsed Paxton is a far-right crook who spoke at the rally on January 6th that eventually evolved into the violent insurrection. He's so corrupt that he was impeached by the Republican-controlled Texas House for, among other things, accepting bribes while he was state attorney general. While he doesn't yet have his party's nomination, Paxton is expected to clinch it over incumbent Senator John Cornyn thanks to Trump's support. The President's decision to endorse the odious Paxton over the (relatively) more palatable Cornyn due to perceived disloyalty has been interpreted by most election experts as a major boon for Talarico. "You know, so many of my family members, my friends, my neighbors who voted for Donald Trump in 2024, they voted for him because they thought he was gonna lower costs," Talarico continued. "They thought he was gonna end the forever wars." "They thought he was gonna release the Epstein files and drain the swamp. But just one year later, they've seen how he's done the exact opposite," he went on. "Through his crazy tariffs, he's made everything more expensive. He has started even more conflicts around the world, including this new forever war in Iran. He has done everything he could to keep the Epstein files from seeing the light of day. And the swamp in Washington is bigger than it's ever been." "So there's a lot of disillusionment," said Talarico. "And what I'm trying to do is speak directly to those Texans who feel disillusioned, who feel like this system doesn't work for them, that it only works for billionaires and puppet politicians like Paxton and Cornyn. And I think if we can bring those Texans together across all these divisions in our politics, if we can see past the distractions and the culture war tactics, I think we can do something extraordinary." "We can end 30 years of one party rule in Texas and we can transform American politics in the process. And that gets me excited every day to hit the campaign trail and talk directly to Texans about the things they actually care about," he added. His point is well-observed. Paxton and his Republican allies are trying to attack Talarico as a vegan because they have absolutely nothing to run on themselves. Their party is defined by corruption, theft of the public treasury, protection of pedophiles, pointless wars, and inane culture war issues. Texas, it's time for a change. Please ❤️ and share if you're rooting for James Talarico!

This merits repeating: “Federal law prohibits the President or his aides from directing or halting an IRS audit. Agents who carry out a politically motivated audit, or stop one at the direction of the White House, can face prison time. That is the statute on the books.”

This is Adam Hoffman, a 49-year-old Waco, TX attorney. He faced life without parole for repeatedly raping a young boy. Texas AG Ken Paxton offered him 1 day in jail and no need to register as a sex offender. A judge increased his sentence to a whopping 60 days. He gets out in June. Not an immigrant. Not a trans person. Not a Black or brown person. Every MAGA accusation is a confession. Full story: letsaddresstexas.substack.co…

GERHARD BRONNER DEVELOPED IN THE 1950s HIS IMPOSSIBLE TRIANGLE “There are three things that cannot be squared. Intelligence, morality, and MAGA. You can be intelligent and MAGA, but then you are not moral. You can be moral and MAGA, but then you are not intelligent. Finally, you can be intelligent and moral, but then, you are not MAGA.” — Gerhard Bronner

“If we erase January 6th, it didn’t happen” “If we don’t release certain inflation data, there’s no inflation” “If we don’t measure food insecurity, no one’s hungry” “If we delete research on right-wing violence, there’s no right-wing violence” “If we stop Covid testing, we’ll have fewer cases” The Trump administration wants you to believe their propaganda is fact, and control the majority of mainstream media and social platforms to reinforce their lies. This is what authoritarianism looks like.

The Department of Justice is acknowledging it has removed from its website news releases about criminal cases related to the Jan. 6, 2021, riot, calling the information about the prosecutions “partisan propaganda.” abcnews.link/A8W2vOT
