it's lucky for Donald Trump that he's just a privileged white man brazenly committing bank fraud and cheating on his taxes, and not, for example, a black man selling loose cigarettes on a street corner, because there are serious consequences for that
The NYPD deleted this tweet, but the fact is they proudly displayed having caught people who took diapers and cough medicine.
Basic. Necessities.
This is not public safety. This is cruelty on display.
The decent people will keep being decent and wearing a mask without a mandate. The mandates were there to help protect us from the people who refuse decency if given the option.
The NYT repeatedly gave the Clinton email story multiple A1 above the fold headlines.
Their story on Trump being accused of improperly removing classified materials from the White House will run on page A15.
For me, the takeaway from the Trump-destroys-and-steals-documents scandal is that political journalists should stop pretending to believe Republicans when they pretend to be outraged about purportedly illegal or unethical behavior by Democrats.
Sen Mitt Romney on Natl Archives review of Trump Mar-a-lago papers: "Clearly if classified documents were taken that would be of grave concern and its appropriate to follow the law. Frankly President Trump's misbehavior consists of a long list and you just add that to the total"
Many people continue to understand poverty as a failure of individual people rather than a failure of a society to care for those with the least resources. People are not poor because they deserve to be. No one deserves poverty. Those experiencing it deserve empathy, not vitriol.
I don’t understand this sudden urgency to drop mask mandates all over the country. Why now? Literally weeks away from kids under 5 getting vaccinated. While omicron cases are still coming down. Am I missing something?? Make it make sense.
Every time I read another headline about Donald doing another HEINOUS CRIME, I smile because there’s really no way he’s getting out of doing SERIOUS jail time. They could put the whole fam on house arrest together. Big Brother Trump Family. When you get eliminated you go to jail.
There’s a clear correlation between ignorance & anger w/MAGA. The less they know, the angrier they are. The lack of understanding seems a trigger. Like when a kid w/a game or puzzle that’s hard, they get frustrated because they don’t get it. That’s MAGA living in the real world.
Elon Musk became $32,600,000,000 richer TODAY and $279,000,000,000 richer during the pandemic, but the corporate media tells us inflation is soaring because some dude at Taco Bell got a 50 cent raise last week and a $1,400 check 10 months ago. Never lose your sense of outrage.
@BenedictTown hello Mr. Townsend, I’ve listened to your numbers segment since it was brand-spanking-new yet I’ve never sent a number in myself. 26 for how old I am and a saucy 7 just because. Numbers segment wrapped?
