There was a short bit on tv today about recruitments: failing or not having background cks, can barely read, failing drug tests, can't do push-ups, etc. BUT THEY'RE HIRING THEM ANYWAY, TO MEET MILLER'S QUOTAS!!!!
The best fight is VOTE, VOTE, VOTE if they let you. Start with local and move to Federal elections. And always remember these are your employees. Your taxes pay their salaries. There are no Republican or Democratic taxes, they are all just money. Your vote is their bonus for a job well done. So be sure to tell whoever you believe did a good job and to your approval by your vote.
They're not the only ones who think we're stupid. We elected a 79 year old convicted felon with dementia to run the country after he had shown no ability to do the job before. And had also tried an insurrection. Doesn't sound too smart to me.
This administration is like Colonel Jessup in A Few Good Men. Lying, doctoring records, intimidating the doctor into reaching an absurd cause-of-death conclusion... I hope its moment of "did you order the code red??!!!" is coming soon, where everything comes tumbling down. Since 2015, virtually no one in the GOP has paid an electoral/political penalty for brazenly lying and being corrupt, or covering up corruption. I hope this is an inflection point, because that's the only way to save politics-- destroy the incentives for lying/corruption.
I really appreciate your posts Mike, but I am 76 on a significantly limited income. Small pension, SS, and a part time job. I try to contribute to progressive candidates in MN and occasionally elsewhere. I can pay a little for your work, but even $8 a month for me at this point is a lot. Is there a way you could have a reduced subscription for seniors in need? - Mary
I read earlier today he was briefly AT the hospital then released. Didn't say admitted. So 'internal bleeding' appears to be a stretch. Another LIE &/or covering their bases when they tried to make up/beef up injury claims. THEY ALL LIE. KNOWINGLY! EVERY SINGLE DAY.
100% that they lie all the time, and we saw him walk quickly to his car with absolutely no trouble. If they said anything truthful….now that would be news.
Apparently they are looking at Seattle as the next target. This shows how stupid they are, it’s actually a pretty small city in square miles and we have a long history of opposing overreach and attempts at trying to tell people what to do. I may not like the current mayor (she’s no Mamdani in talent or experience), but Seattlites and those in the cities adjacent like to be able to associate with whomever they choose.
Sad to say, there are dozens of rabid MAGA on X who are calling liberals idiots for not believing that Ross is in the hospital recovering from internal injuries. They claim to see that it is obvious he was hit by Good's car and that Good's wife was urging her on. The sick point is that these people are Stalinists -- willing to lie because the ends justify the means. This way they can confuse and mislead low-information folks who don't have time to find the real videos that show what happened.
Many in ICE are violent, murderous thugs, that's the recruitment strategy of all things trumpian.

That ICE stormtrooper was not injured. We ALL saw the incident on his own video. They do think we are stupid. Which makes us even more angry.
This is going to be a huge fight against them. They have guns and power but we can have sheer numbers and resolve.

Get rid of the electoral college entirely and we'll elect fewer of these. Did he win an actual majority of votes?

Good idea, Mary!
I think “internal bleeding” could be stretched to include a superficial bruise. Just a thought.

Maybe on the ear.
So will he be wearing a maxi pad on it?
They think we’re deaf, blind and dumb

Actually they think their voters are stupid. They're not wrong.
Or as warped as they are, and they're not wrong on that, either.

MAGAts will believe this, anything and everything that Trump, Fox & the other right wing money machines say. There will be nothing questioned.
I think we all know people with reasoning ability or BS detectors who will reject the brain dead claims.
Yup they think everyone watches Fox, and all media bends the knee.
How does one fight stupidity? Especially those who believe this is ok?
use your second amendment right
"fear for your life"
this is Hitler shit...
watch a documentary on ww2
this is exactly the same...all that's left, is for them to line you up for the oven...
Fucking compulsive liars may they burn in hell forever!!
