Music. And pretending everything else is totally fine.

No, not Democrats being “bused in”—just regular Nebraskans waking up to the fact that their Social Security is on the chopping block to fund tax cuts for billionaires. Great piece by PBS.

2018: Trump’s USAID hatchet man, Peter Marocco, secretly met w/Christian nationalists—defying US policy & undermining a fragile peace deal. Now, he’s echoing Kremlin sentiment, in front of Congress. US foreign policy under Trump: empowering extremists & gutting efforts to promote global stability.

Flood The Zone… Time to plaster those “Trumpflation” stickers everywhere! Let’s make sure everyone knows who’s responsible for draining their wallets.

No further debate—Trump’s DEI policy is clearly racist. The Pentagon is flagging for removal, historic photos of Black & brown heroes who served, claiming they “promote DEI.” The military was segregated until 1948. Black people served while facing racism. Where was the DEI? Erasure is the point.

I also found out recently that Monopoly sucks because it's SUPPOSED to suck. It was designed by a woman (and then stolen by a man) to show people the dangers of monopolies. In fact it had two modes monopoly and collectivism. Only the monopoly ver survived.

Speaking of the housing crisis, in the 9 months after the Irish government ended the eviction ban, 15,000 households were evicted. That's almost TWICE as many as were evicted annually at the height of the Famine. Let that sink in.
