Whoa.

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

What do you think? Did Jamie Raskin just perfectly sum up the Impeachment of Secretary Mayorkas by House Republicans?

“We're here because the madcap wild goose chase to impeach Joe Biden has produced no wild geese.”

It's ironic that they are impeaching the guy in charge of the border the same week that the plan that he helped create to fix the border is being shot down by those impeaching him.

BREAKING: Donald Trump unleashes a deeply unhinged response to a federal court's ruling that he does NOT have presidential immunity from prosecution for his role in the January 6th insurrection.

You can feel the panic in every word he typed. This man is absolutely terrified of going to prison...

Taking to Truth Social for his rant, Trump insisted that a president "must have Full Immunity" so that he can "properly function" and "do what has to be done for the good of the Country."

Of course, attempting to overthrow our democracy because you lost an election is the furthest thing from working towards the "good of the country."

Trump called the court's ruling "Nation-destroying," which is ironically exactly what he tried to do on January 6th when he whipped his MAGA fanatics into a lather and unleashed them on the Capitol.

He went on to claim that the ruling "cannot be allowed to stand" and that it must be "overturned" because it will "terribly injury" the presidency as well as the "Life, Breath, and Success of our Country."

"A President will be afraid to act for fear of the opposite Party’s Vicious Retribution after leaving Office," wrote Trump.

"I know from personal experience because I am going through it right now," he went on. "It will become a Political Weapon used for Election Interference. Even our Elections will be corrupted and under siege. So bad, and so dangerous for our Nation. SAVE PRESIDENTIAL IMMUNITY!"

It's worth pointing out that a president should be afraid of breaking the law by attempting a violent coup. The idea that a president can do whatever he likes, break the law at whim, and then simply slither off scot-free is just about the most unAmerican idea imaginable.

Mike Lindell live streamed *stolen voting machine data.*

He lied about what was in it - after his own expert told him he was wrong.

He non-stop defamed multiple companies and attacked faith in our elections. He wanted martial law.

HE tried to take everything from US.

@RonFilipkowski How many of these people complain about inflation, yet are about to drive to the border over something they can’t do anything about.

[Jaime Harrison @harrisonjaime]

Oh hell no! I am a constituent of SC. Nikki Haley was my Governor. She denied hundreds of thousands of people healthcare… signed one of the most restrictive abortion bans in the country…. Made it harder for Black voters to vote. I can go on. So you don’t get to dictate to Black voters in SC who suffered under both Trump and Haley and tell us you must choose one of these rotten MAGA apples.

Today on February 3rd in SC, Black voters will do what we always do and that is pick a candidate who sees us, hears us, but most importantly values us! #FITN

Why I am tired...follow my thread

I was driving home from work listening to Chris Hayes telling America how Biden's economy is killing it by every metric...he also played a clip where even people on Fox were celebrating the economy, maybe not Biden, but the economy.

I decided to look at these metrics because I know Biden is kicking ass, but it appears not enough of us understand the true depths of the amazing job this man is doing...and doing it at 81 years of age.

Bidenomics was Joe's way of saying he was going to grow the economy from the middle out. The man has record low unemployment, increased real wages, the GDP is exploding, inflation continues to drop, and the stock market is setting huge records.

By any metric this is one of the strongest performances of any president in over 100 years and yet only 36 percent of this country thinks he's handling the economy well.

Biden has stated emphatically that you build the economy from the middle out and not top down because the only trickle down from the top is the rich peeing on your shoes. Biden has stated the only way to grow the economy is 'to include more people in it."

This means that the many hands replace the so called invisible hand because the invisible hand truly is invisible...it is a mirage that leads to huge deficits. Reagan was wrong and Biden is correct.

We see unions thriving again on truly liveable wages...life changing wages...we see teenagers making between 15-20 bucks an hour while still in high school and I know this because my own students make this kind of money and it is why I don't see them in class enough.

Bidenomics believes in three "key pillars"- public investments, empowering workers, and promoting competition...Republicans don't compete, they create monopolies and remove legislation that discourages monopolies.

Reganomics gave the appearance of working when in fact it was built on tax cuts, deregulation, wage cuts. It believed that public investment hurt private investment...what that really means is that public investment cuts into their profits and their high prices and benefits the public better and cheaper.

"The CHIPS and Science Acts alone has raised 231 billion dollars from private investors", so the private sector is not being crowded out.

Reagan began the killing of the middle class the day he fired the Air traffic controllers. The private sector followed his lead and soon enough union membership plummeted to record low numbers. Once again the workers got screwed. Under Republicans, workers always get screwed and history shows this.

What Biden is doing is working. "Employers do not pay you what you are worth, they pay you what you have the power to negotiate." The federal minimum wage of 7.25 has been in place for a very long time and it if had grown according the rate of inflation it would be over $12 an hour by now. Thank Republicans.

Biden has promised to enforce anti-trust laws to ensure competition becomes a staple in the economy for years to come.

Republicans will tell you Bidenomics is a disaster simply because it cuts into corporate profits. The fact is corporations do not need more profits and CEO's need a salary ceiling. Corporations have been robbing this country blind...all of us...left and right

What Biden is showing America is that the Republican/Corporate model does not work and he is winning the argument and it's not even close.

Before I became a teacher I was in business and then a business owner. I have hired a lot of people. People with graduate degrees, people with no HS education, and people who have been in prison (I hate the term ex-con as it's dehumanizing). I hired people of all walks of life because what I valued was growing as a business and if someone could help me grow, that was the quality that mattered to me. Could they help or not? that was it. The more hands I had the more I could grow and that is exactly what Biden is betting on and his argument is succeeding.

I will say this...I have had my share of older folks working for me...if someone came to me with Biden's resume and that resume was recent, I would hire that guy any day of the week and I would not care if he was 91 years old. Biden as done more at 81 years of age than Trump has done his whole life. He has done more than any president in Modern history and that really cannot be debated. The numbers tell the story.

Some say but what about interests rates? I say what about them? Higher interest rates have helped bring inflation down and kept the economy from getting too out of hand. Right now it is a nice sustainable growth and talks of recession are gone.

The Fed has indicated that we are looking at 3 interest rates in 2024 and I suspect they might even be a tad higher than they indicate which I believe was a total of .75 ...one must be careful with dropping them too fast or things fall apart.

The time has come for the 1% to return the 50 trillion dollars they have flat out stole from us...they know that Biden is coming for them and thats why they are spending billions in propaganda convincing this country that we are on the wrong path...it is why Republicans are trying to impeach him...they know Biden has found the right recipe and it will cost them dearly and they want him gone...who do you think is paying for the whole Biden is old campaign, the Biden is a crook campaign, the economy is a mirage conversation, and every other false flag out there...Billionaires fear Joe Biden and they should. Americans should embrace him because he is the way forward...soon enough Republicans might even say that Biden guy is doing ok as Biden keeps building more businesses in their state....ask Colorado who benefits from what Lauren Boebert voted against.

If you are looking for a reason to vote against Biden, perhaps is time to start looking for reasons to vote for him or you might miss out on the greatest growth this country might ever see.

@RepMTG Oh sweetie, the Border Crisis is an election scam!

[Human☮🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🌊 @4HumanUnity]

.@RepMTG The most useless House in decades. Seriously, the whole Trump-First 👆, America Last caucus has nothing for working-class Americans, do they?

Alright, let's slice through Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's dramatics with some cold, hard facts. Blaming Secretary Mayorkas for a so-called border crisis and drumming up impeachment talks? That's a stretch and, frankly, a misuse of the impeachment process. We're talking about a tool designed for "Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors," not a stage for political theater over policy disagreements.

First off, painting Mayorkas as the villain for complex border challenges is not just unfair; it's oversimplifying a multifaceted issue. The situation at the southern border didn't erupt overnight or at the command of one person. It's the culmination of years, decades even, of compounded policy and administrative decisions. Slinging blame his way is ignoring the vast, tangled web of immigration issues that demand bipartisan legislative action, not scapegoating.

American people need solutions that address economic stability, healthcare, and yes, comprehensive immigration reform, not a Congress fixated on seeking attention and scoring cheap political points. The real issues at hand? They're being sidelined by these theatrics.

As for the Trump-First agenda? It's crystal clear. This isn't about solving immigration; it's about clinging to a narrative that stokes division so he could win this November. He could careless about you or our immigration problems. Remember, Trump's inhumane policies exacerbated the problems at the border, spiking "gotaways" and muddling the system further. Yet, here we are, watching as some Republicans play follow-the-leader, ignoring the pressing need for the bipartisan Senate Bill that could expedite asylum processing so those unqualified can be sent back in months not years and start untangling the mess.

Let's not forget about the human traffickers exploiting the "open border" myth, a dangerous lie that's risking lives. Biden's administration is pushing for change, aiming to fix a broken system that's been neglected for far too long. But he's up against a wall of obstruction, not from the border, but from Congress members who'd rather keep the crisis boiling for their benefit.

So, Greene's push for impeachment? It's not just misplaced; it's a glaring example of America-last politics. It's time to demand more than distractions and division. We need solutions, action, and a bit of honesty from our representatives. Enough with the childish political games, it's time to get to work. #Immigration #BorderCrisis #Mayorkas #DNC #ProudBlue #POTUS

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

A British writer penned the best description of Donald Trump I’ve ever read:

“Why do some British people not like Donald Trump?”

A few things spring to mind. Trump lacks certain qualities which the British traditionally esteem. For instance, he has no class, no charm, no coolness, no credibility, no compassion, no wit, no warmth, no wisdom, no subtlety, no sensitivity, no self-awareness, no humility, no honour and no grace – all qualities, funnily enough, with which his predecessor Mr. Obama was generously blessed. So for us, the stark contrast does rather throw Trump’s limitations into embarrassingly sharp relief.

Plus, we like a laugh. And while Trump may be laughable, he has never once said anything wry, witty or even faintly amusing – not once, ever. I don’t say that rhetorically, I mean it quite literally: not once, not ever. And that fact is particularly disturbing to the British sensibility – for us, to lack humour is almost inhuman. But with Trump, it’s a fact. He doesn’t even seem to understand what a joke is – his idea of a joke is a crass comment, an illiterate insult, a casual act of cruelty.

Trump is a troll. And like all trolls, he is never funny and he never laughs; he only crows or jeers. And scarily, he doesn’t just talk in crude, witless insults – he actually thinks in them. His mind is a simple bot-like algorithm of petty prejudices and knee-jerk nastiness.

There is never any under-layer of irony, complexity, nuance or depth. It’s all surface. Some Americans might see this as refreshingly upfront. Well, we don’t. We see it as having no inner world, no soul. And in Britain we traditionally side with David, not Goliath. All our heroes are plucky underdogs: Robin Hood, Dick Whittington, Oliver Twist. Trump is neither plucky, nor an underdog. He is the exact opposite of that. He’s not even a spoiled rich-boy, or a greedy fat-cat. He’s more a fat white slug. A Jabba the Hutt of privilege.

And worse, he is that most unforgivable of all things to the British: a bully. That is, except when he is among bullies; then he suddenly transforms into a snivelling sidekick instead. There are unspoken rules to this stuff – the Queensberry rules of basic decency – and he breaks them all. He punches downwards – which a gentleman should, would, could never do – and every blow he aims is below the belt. He particularly likes to kick the vulnerable or voiceless – and he kicks them when they are down.

So the fact that a significant minority – perhaps a third – of Americans look at what he does, listen to what he says, and then think ‘Yeah, he seems like my kind of guy’ is a matter of some confusion and no little distress to British people, given that:

• Americans are supposed to be nicer than us, and mostly are.

• You don’t need a particularly keen eye for detail to spot a few flaws in the man.

This last point is what especially confuses and dismays British people, and many other people too; his faults seem pretty bloody hard to miss. After all, it’s impossible to read a single tweet, or hear him speak a sentence or two, without staring deep into the abyss. He turns being artless into an art form; he is a Picasso of pettiness; a Shakespeare of shit. His faults are fractal: even his flaws have flaws, and so on ad infinitum. God knows there have always been stupid people in the world, and plenty of nasty people too. But rarely has stupidity been so nasty, or nastiness so stupid. He makes Nixon look trustworthy and George W look smart. In fact, if Frankenstein decided to make a monster assembled entirely from human flaws – he would make a Trump.

And a remorseful Doctor Frankenstein would clutch out big clumpfuls of hair and scream in anguish: ‘My God… what… have… I… created?' If being a twat was a TV show, Trump would be the boxed set.”

COPIED FROM JOE BECIGNEUL: THIS IS PROBABLY GOING TO TICK SOME PEOPLE OFF, AND I HOPE IT DOES. BUT I’M GOING TO KEEP ON SHARING IT AND SAYING IT. AND ONCE AGAIN, I AM NOT A SWIFTIE, BUT I AM A HUMAN BEING, A DAD AND, A MONSTROUS FOOTBALL FAN.
I am extremely disappointed in so many of you who think that "not being a fan" of someone means you're entitled to shit all over them.
I want to remind you of something.
Your children are watching you complain about Taylor Swift sitting at a football game, being happy, and cheering for a man she loves in what appears to be a very loving, respectful relationship.
Your Children are watching you judge a woman for literally just EXISTING and taking up space happily.
And you know what? Ms. Swift has won 324 awards? How many do you have?
She brought $5 BILLION dollars in consumer spending and boosted the U. S. economy so significantly, that leaders from other countries actually beg for her to play there?
Did you know that there are over 20 college courses about her skills as an artist, lyricist, and musician - including at places like Harvard, Stanford & UC Berkeley?
Did you know that Taylor Swift quietly donates mass amounts of money to local food banks in every city she performs in?
AND DID YOU KNOW …
That Taylor Swift was sexually assaulted by a radio DJ, and she got him fired? When he sued HER for over $3 million for defamation, she counter sued for a symbolic $1 in a court case that took 2 YEARS for her to win. And, she did that just to show women that fighting for what's right has no price tag & to never be silent in the face of oppression.
WELL IF YOU DON’T CARE BY NOW, YOU SHOULD.
Because your daughters, nieces, and your nephews are watching you run your mouth. And they are seeing the world hate a woman who does so much good, simply because she exists in their line of sight.
DO BETTER PEOPLE.
Teach your boys to respect women. Teach your girls that as women - they are ALLOWED to take up space.
Fix it. Become aware of your words. Because we all have the ability and the obligation to fight for the future of our children with simple moments. And we need to consciously choose to be better for them.
