AlterNet Crooks and Liars Daily Kos (Note: these articles are from RSS News Feeds websites, and are deleted after 30 days, June 12, 2025 at 9:16 AM EDT Jessica Tarlov once again injected a bit of reality into a discussion on Fox's The Five , this time on what most of the public thinks about Trump and Stephen Miller's cruel deportation policies. Tarlov started things off defending Gavin Newsom, who whacked Trump for fanning the flames in Los Angeles and his abuse of power calling up the National Guard, before moving onto some recent polling from Quinnipiac showing Trump underwater on both immigration and deportations. June 12, 2025 at 6:50 AM EDT I don't know how much clearer he could be: The money he takes in from our taxes is for billionaires, and anything else, we're on our own! Mango Man said yesterday that his administration plans to "wean" states off Federal Emergency Management Agency assistance after this year's hurricane season, leaving everyone to float on their own. Via the Washington Post: "We're moving it back to the states, so the governors can handle. That's why they're governors," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. "If they can't handle it, they shouldn't be governor." June 12, 2025 at 6:50 AM EDT How, HOW is this one of Trump's favorite songs? Has he ever listened to the lyrics? Via People: President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump received a mix of boos and applause at the Kennedy Center on Wednesday, June 11, as they attended the opening performance of the musical Les Mise'rables. June 12, 2025 at 6:48 AM EDT The dozen board members of the prestigious Fulbright program have resigned over what they describe as political interference by Trump aides. The New York Times reported the entire board's resignation, which was confirmed by the board on Substack. The program promotes international educational exchanges, and they had much to say on Substack. June 12, 2025 at 6:47 AM EDT Above, Gary Jules performs, Mad World , which was featured in Donnie Darko. There's no end of irony in our stupid timeline. Adventus points out the differences between fact and Fox. June 11, 2025 at 8:21 PM EDT Donald Trump continues to destroy FEMA and the important role they play for states recovering from disasters by beginning to fold the agency in with Homeland Security and turning the recovery costs and processes over to the states. If a state can't meet the burden of this monumental task, Trump will then blame the governor for being incompetent and make then beg for crumbs while the people suffer. June 11, 2025 at 5:05 PM EDT You may recall that Trump announced he had fired Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery Director Kim Sajet late last month. But as I wrote in my post about that, it seemed pretty clear Trump did not have the authority to do so. The head of the Smithsonian came to the same conclusion and the Smithsonian's Board of Regents publicly agreed. One member of that board is John Roberts, chief justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. The regents' response is a direct refutation of Trump's authority. On Monday night, the Board issued a statement saying, "All personnel decisions are made by and subject to the direction of the Secretary, with oversight by the Board. Lonnie G. Bunch, the Secretary, has the support of the Board of Regents in his authority and management of the Smithsonian." June 11, 2025 at 5:05 PM EDT MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell didn't hold back his contempt for Trump's announcement during a speech to the troops at Fort Bragg this Tuesday where he mentioned restoring the names of military bases back to those of Confederate generals. After discussing Trump's ignorance of history while griping about people waving Mexican flags in Los Angeles, O'Donnell discussed the racist history of the confederate flag, that Trump has no issue with. June 11, 2025 at 2:41 PM EDT The Arizona Democratic Party moved over the weekend to bar billionaires and corporations from using their wealth to purchase primary elections, a key step for progressives who have been pushing the Democratic Party nationwide to curb the political influence of ultra-rich donors. A newly approved resolution, passed by voice vote at the Arizona Democratic Party's State Committee meeting on Saturday, instructs the party to "establish a 'People's Primary' policy to bar, to the greatest extent possible, the use of massive private wealth to buy or unduly influence our primary elections." June 11, 2025 at 2:41 PM EDT Grandpa Bone Spurs is spreading another vicious lie that someone is paying protestors in Los Angeles against Stephen Miller's ordered outrageous ICE raids in schools and in Home Depots. LA has suffered enough this year after the wildfires, but this asswipe sends ICE to raid Home Depot which was moronic. Stay the fuck out of all of California. Trump is a cancer for any blue state. June 11, 2025 at 12:33 PM EDT Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) spoke to CNN's Manu Raju on Capitol Hill. AOC was asked about Sen. John Fetterman's criticism of the Democratic Party over the protests in Los Angeles. Fetterman said, "My party loses the moral high ground when we refuse to condemn setting cars on fire, destroying buildings, and assaulting law enforcement," even though that's not the whole picture. A few protesters got out of hand in a city populated by 3.821 million residents, but you don't send in the Marines. ICE was formed in 2003 primarily as a response to the September 11th terrorist attacks. Still, the agency has gone lawless as it disappears people from American streets, then many of those individuals are deported without due process. June 11, 2025 at 10:41 AM EDT NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya made no sense when he tried to claim that by the HHS cutting massive research dollars from the NIH, it will still end up producing excellent research. Donald Trump, with his insane cabinet picks is destroying every federal agency that is necessary to the health, and well-being of this country and its citizens. |
