Staunchly anti-boomer since the 1900s

If there's one thing Trump has usefully revealed it's that the gatekeepers in the media who supposedly had so much reverence for Support The Troops and Dead Soldiers etc when those things were being deployed to hurt Democrats were just liars and never cared about this even a little.

I would never presume to know how a Gold Star family feels or what they should say. However if I were in one today, I'd be absolutely ripshit with Trump.

🚨BREAKING: President Trump’s administration installed overnight a new exhibit at the site of George Washington’s Philadelphia home instead of the memorial to the 9 people kept in bondage at the nation’s first White House. National Park Service dismantled the original slavery exhibit in January. 🎁 🔗

Slavery exhibits at the President’s House have been swapped for the Trump administration’s version

The change at the President's House happened overnight, allowing the government to switch out the displays and shutdown the television screens while avoiding public scrutiny during the takedown.

The Supreme Court's fifth and final decision is Blanche v. Lau, another 6–3 split. Per Thomas, the government does NOT require clear and convincing evidence that a green card holder committed a crime before divesting them of their lawful status at the border. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

“Imagine the press reaction if any other president in history had spent the country’s 250th anniversary celebrating a bribe from a middle eastern nation while boasting ‘America couldn’t build this’ about an American plane,” I whisper alone to my mannequins as I pound my head into the wall repeatedly

"the year is 2026. donald trump is dictator of the USA; reelected just 5 years after killing half a million americans in a pandemic he tried to cover up before launching a failed coup attempt that involved trying to get his veep killed" sometimes i just need to say it out loud, sorry

The legal arguments for Trump's birthright citizenship executive order are vapid and embarrassing. Multiple lower court judges legit laughed DOJ lawyers out of the room. The fact that four Supreme Court justices twisted themselves into logical pretzels to buy it is a constitutional emergency.

The Constitution Is On Life Support

Four justices are prepared to stuff the Fourteenth Amendment’s promises in the garbage because Mister Trump demands it.

Yes, of course, there is coverage of inflation, gas prices, & Trump’s policies. But the constant daily bombardment from media outlets & our most prominent public-facing economists about how It’s All Terrible, everyone is Suffering From Inflation, & it’s all The President’s Fault is just not the same
