America was nice while it lasted. Now that the former USA is aligned with Russia, North Korea and Israel, good luck to the rest of what remains of the "free" world.

Trump will use local law enforcement the U.S. military and National Guard to identify and apprehend undocumented immigrants. This would result in a permanent police state in many communities and militarization of our border and immigration system.

About a million farm workers are currently undocumented. That’s about 1 in every 5 of all farm workers. Guess what will happen when crops don't get planted, much less harvested.

Those who voted for Trump claiming inflation was the reason -- when tRUmp’s tariffs go into effect. His tariffs will add 20 percent to the cost of many consumer items.Proposed tariffs are already causing companies to adjust their plans dramatically. Retailers that depend on foreign suppliers, which is most of them, are prepared to pass along the cost of his proposed import tariffs.
A perfect excuse to raise prices across the board.

tRUmp’s upcoming policies put us on a path leading to shortages, inflation and misery for many of the most vulnerable families, especially across the red states that supported him enthusiastically.

Might as well bring it right out in the open.

I've now had 3 people message and tell me trees won't help with carbon capture. Not enough land, they burn, they biodegrade, etc. So what are going to do? Rely on tech to build a magic cure? Trees aren't the only answer but they are big one.

And I'll add that before 1980 stock buybacks were illegal. One of the first things Ronnie did was make them legal. Companies stopped investing ion the business and paying good wages instead of transferring profits to shareholders and CEOs.

Major outlets change standards for hacked emails, protect Trump
https://popular.info/p/major-outlets-change-standards-for

This is a much different approach than the Washington Post took after hackers connected to the Russian government leaked internal emails from Clinton campaign officials and the Democratic National Committee (DNC). The Washington Post published dozens of stories based on these leaked emails. The steady drumbeat of mostly unflattering articles was a major part of the election narrative in the days and weeks before election day.

Why is the WaPo protecting tRUmp by keeping the contents of his hacked emails secret? Oh.... they're not HER emails.

Gotta grift while he still can...

No presidential candidate has ever so closely linked his election with personal for-profit enterprises, selling a staggering array of merchandise that includes signed Bibles where he receives a royalty for hawking them, pricey sneakers, gold necklaces, cryptocurrency cards, pens, books, licensing fees on overseas properties and more.

A few of the attacks on Gus Walz.

The good side of this is these GQPers telling everyone who they really are.Makes it easy to tell who the jerks are.

What a dumbass story driven by a GQP meme from 5 years ago disparaging Obama.

IT MEANS SHE WORE A TAN SUIT. OK?

Kamala Harris wore a tan suit to day one of the DNC – what does it mean?

Some argued the suit was actually camel, while others online speculated Harris was trolling Republicans – or simply wearing her off duty suit

So would the elimination of taxes on tips would apply to gifting SCOTUS members and corrupt congress critters, effectively making corruption tax free?

Prepare for exactly this kind of f**kery nationwide in November...

‘A different level than 2020’: Trump’s plan to steal election is taking shape

It requires local election board members to conduct an undefined “reasonable inquiry” into any discrepancies before they can certify the election. There are concerns that officials could use that discretion to hold up certification of the election.

In GQP world you're a communist if you think women should have control over their own bodies and lives; medical care for the sick and elderly; free school lunches (in GQP world school kids are "unemployed minors"); free college tuition; and LGBT+ rights. Destroying or preventing all of these things are part of Project 2025.
