Love the image of all the New Yorkers blocking the damn ICE vehicles from leaving their garage - to protect NY’s many immigrant street vendors. YAY, New York!!! 💖

People helping people, doing what they can for their neighbors when they are in need, and acknowledging what we all know and now have overwhelming evidence, that the orange blob in the Oval Office is a creep of the highest order; Perhaps America can find the path back to creating a more perfect union.

Thanks for your tidings.

28% approval on healthcare, 31% approval on economy, Trump’s dangerous mental decline on full display…

Still, MAGA loyalists in Congress, the Supreme Court and corporate America don’t appear to care about any of it. Are they so confident future elections won’t happen, can be rigged, or won’t matter?

Let’s hope MAGA pride goes before a big, big fall. Go New York!

28% and the shock of new "coverage" options haven't kicked in yet.

Brilliant post! He’s flailing and failing. We will defeat him and his enablers.

Horrible about the floods in Washington State, and wondering when FEMA will hit the ground. Oh, wait, is there still a FEMA?

" He told the room that out of 71 monetary experts, only two people got the interest-rate question right, one was an unnamed Wharton professor, and the other was, naturally, Donald J. Trump"

Is THIS the same math genius who claimed (prescription) drug prices were coming down 500%, 600%. 700% or even 1,500%? To make matters worse, he has repeated this several times, as if none of his advisors had to guts to correct him.

Maybe this is why he has threatened Wharton with holy hell if they were to release his transcript?

I am sensing something growing in strength. As President Trump’s Administrations is mired in chaos, people across the US are caring and connecting. From Chinatown in Manhattan, street vendors in the Bronx, to the Capitol in Indiana , to “Chicagoland” up to NW Washington, people are rising up without asking about each other’s party affiliation. Instead it’s “grab your whistle - let me know if you’re okay…let me know if you see trouble coming…”

"Threatening to withhold federal funds in order to coerce state officials into delivering a partisan outcome isn’t just unethical, it’s illegal."

Yes. Yes it is. And either it will stand (as so many of Trump's criminal acts have) or some lower court judge will block Trump from doing it, only to have him appeal to the Supreme Court where his SCOT-buds will hasten to grant Trump the Power.

Meanwhile, there is joy in Hoosierville, for Trump, feckless Trump, has struck out.

p.s. I live in Indiana. For the first time in forever I'm proud of the state congress.

Heather Cox Richardson has some interesting things to say about why Indiana decided the way they did. From her letter dated yesterday (12/12). As always she traces cultural quirks back in time. Something in the soil - literally - is why the Ohio Valley is different from the South and the North.

Could be. I'm a transplant myself, born and raised on the East Coast. 😉

Just another day in the Kingdom of the United States, but hold on to your crown, Trump, the calvary is on it's way with millions of citizens of all colors, shapes, and sizes hellbent on dethroning you before you destroy us. Way to go, USA!
