I called into the Thom Hartman program this morning to advocate for the creation of a People’s Lobby to defend and expand existing social programs and to advocate for a National Public Health Care System. I also suggested we need a new political party.
Trump and the Republicans keep harping on Democratic Party corruption in Minnesota in order to cover up the fact they are stealing trillions of dollars from the American people. Such hypocrisy!

So… Trump is putting the billionaire Nazi Elon Musk in charge of revamping the military. I don’t suppose this will lend itself to any kind of self-serving corruption?

I was at a Democratic Party picnic. Lots of free food. And a bunch of Republicans showed up, helped themselves to the free food; and then they started to complain about the Democratic Governor providing school children with free breakfasts and lunches claiming there is no free lunch.

Big business needs Data Centers and Ai to make them more profitable and they expect the rest of us they are robbing everyday at the gas pumps and grocery store checkouts to pay. In what world is this considered fair? They want to put civilization at risk while they profit and we pay.

Trump claims the Tech Billionaires he assembled at the White House to
inform them they are responsible for policing themselves when it comes to Ai (Si) and Data Centers are the “smartest people in the world.” Being the richest people in the world does not make them the smartest.

Democrats are complaining about how long it is taking Trump to win his dirty war on Iran. But whst difference does it make if the war had lasted a week or ten years? Purvis still a dirty imperialist war that never should have been started… just as illegal; just as unconstitutional.

Tennessee prison officials are a bunch of corrupt, sick sadistic morons. No doubt they intentionally botched the execution thinking they were meting out the kind of justice that was deserved. In Texas they want to execute Rodney Reed, an innocent man; the victim of a racist frame-up.

What a country builds with public money is a statement of what it values. We must build for those already living through fires, floods, and extreme weather—not for the balance sheets of companies unwilling to risk their own capital on a new pipeline.

Trump is a disciple of the McCarthyite hate-monger Roy Cohn and he knows his anti-Communist and racist hate-mongering will encourage rightwing groups to become very violent.

William Z. Foster, working class leader and head of the Communist PartyUSA, was once asked what the US working class needed more than anything. His response was, “A good strong dose of anti-imperialist education.” Good advice back then; even better advice for today.

Comando may be tiny, but Mexico's National Guard is giving him a very big role.
Outfitted with miniature goggles, a fitted tactical vest, a helmet and even a petite head-mounted camera, the 7-kilogram (15-pound) Chihuahua has become the most unusual — and smallest — canine member of the force.
