Woke, in other words, means being aware of these social crises and wanting to repair them, to make a more happy, loving, egalitarian society.

Here’s the Truth – If You’re Anti-Woke, You’re Pro-Bigot

“So in Florida, we say very clearly, we will never ever surrender to the woke mob. Our state is where woke goes to die.” “Wokeness is a virus more dangerous than any pandemic, hands down.” Donald Trump is more nuanced, preferring to simply say racist things aloud without using the DeSantis shorthand.

Let’s not overcomplicate this:

Republicans passed a $2 trillion tax cut for billionaires and corporations.

And now they’re refusing to pay for it.

It’s really that simple.

Geraldo Rivera: “…You are my favorite person Washington. i think the most honest person in Washington and the question i have, given that i trust you so, is Donald Trump,… a lot of my friends say he made mistakes and ok January 6th, this and that, but it is his policies we would be voting for. Given the pragmatic side also, do you think he is emotionally fit to be President of the United States? i disagree. i think Trump and Biden will be the candidates, whatever that says about the United States. Is he fit to be President of the United States?

Bill Barr: “This is the way i will answer that. If you believe in his policies, what he is advertising, he is the last person who could actually execute them and achieve them. [laughter] He does not have the discipline, he does not have the ability for strategic linear thinking or setting priorities or how to get things done in the system. It is a horror show when he’s left to his own devices. You may want his policies, Trump will not deliver Trump policies. He would deliver chaos and if anything, lead to a backlash that will set his policies much further back than they otherwise would be.”

Analysis | Fine, here’s why Trump keeps talking about Biden and Chinatown

There’s no question that D.C.’s Chinatown neighborhood still bears cultural markers reflecting its once-large Chinese American population.

Opinion | This is how fascism comes to America

The Republican Party’s attempt to treat Donald Trump as a normal political candidate would be laughable were it not so perilous to the republic. If only he would mouth the party’s “conservative” principles, all would be well.
