"democracy for some — a democracy of convenience — is no democracy at all." Mahmoud Khalil.

Just was reading to my kids how the forced quartering of British soldiers was one of the drivers for the American Revolution.

Daily reminder that the US government is run by a bunch of racists.

What is it called if you mix up the kool-aid for your unwitting followers and then decide to drink it all yourself?

These are the Ukrainians we are taking our support away from. #makeitmakesense

Clearly the Bill of Rights is lost on Trump. Just wait till he crosses the line on 2nd Amendment Rights because it's terrible inconvenient that liberals also are gun owners. #itscoming

So much winning

Doge math: $2+$2= $4,000,000,000. Seems like the $20,000 toilets were really $200 after all. #getdogeout

Losing u.s. support clearly hurts Ukraine, but only a fool would count them out, oh wait....

No one quite delivers zingers like Warren Buffet. "The tooth fairy doesn't pay them." On trump tariffs.

I now firmly believe they are real Russian agents, that they are real Nazis, that they are real life Manchurian officials. I now believe that we might have to take up real arms and fight to protect our democracy.

Why does this read like a 7th grader wrote this for science class? www.wsj.com/opinion/agri...

Maybe if you think you need to hire a corporate security firm for protection, you could alternatively examine why that would be the case and just do things a different way.

If you don't think America in 2024 is exactly the same as America in 1874 you aren't paying attention. It's the Wild West out there.

"That guy is cra-cra." -J. Edgar Hoover

College football games from yesterday illustrate in a microcosm why we are perfectly capable of civil war in this country. A team/politician/political party can't just be satisfied with a game well played or a win. We have to plant a flag on our opponent and rub it in their face.

Those who fail to learn history are doomed to repeat it. When truth is suffocated by MAGA Republicans it’s up to us to be the bearers of facts. Happy Thanksgiving Resisters!!

Why can't Elon be more chill like Jack D.?

Listening to Robert Kennedy is like fingernails on a chalkboard. I'm serious here.

Witch hunt on the "cognitive elite". Journalists can be so lazy sometimes. Trust me, in my rural state, no one is thinking about people who went to HPY nor blaming them for life problems. And apparently the media has forgotten that Trump, Vance, and Elon all went to Ivy league schools.

The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s

Forces of nature eventually overwhelm and overtake all things. The status quo is not an immovable object, it cannot resist an unstoppable force.
