This is a Disgrace

Spot on! and, Trump bends over for shinny new planes!! 🤬

Rick Wilson: "We have a whorehouse at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.”

Mr. President, you’ve never backed down from a punch. You’ve taken your hits. Loss that would break most men. Grief so deep it left scars. Political knives from every direction. And every time, you got back up. 1/2

Hope your Saturday was special.

Some good news! www.cnn.com/2025/05/18/e...

Here's a photo we can all post on June 14. You're welcome😁👊

The fascism playbook hasn't changed—only the speed we're flipping through its chapters.

Come on Dems! Make this happen! 😅🇺🇸

I spent part of the day putting a middle school kid back together. They were gender dysphoric. Female biology, identifying as a male. Maybe it's a fun trend for some. This kid is suffering because of it. Thank goodness for a supportive father. Don't be judgmental. It's hard enough as it is.

Keep your hands off the American people.

Put the vampire back in his coffin.

Imagine failing 5th grade geography... in Congress.

Today is the 111th birthday of Viola Ford Fletcher, the oldest living survivor of the 1921 Tulsa race massacre

58% of women in prison are mothers to minor children. Of those women, most are single mothers. Hundreds of births take place in prisons and jails every year, often with the baby immediately separated from the parent after birth. Families belong together, not separated by prison bars.

So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street

On this date in 1864, Gen. John Sedgwick, one of the finest Union corps commanders, was shot down by a Confederate sharpshooter. His penultimate utterance -- and for once, I am not making it up -- was: "They couldn't hit an elephant at this distance." His final rasp: "Welp. This is awkward as fuck."

Menendez Jr: They feel no weight of the law and no restraint on what they should be doing. And that was shown in broad daylight today when they not just arrested the Mayor of Newark but when they put their hands on two members of congress standing behind me. How is this acceptable?

I've been reading a lot of women's power/anti-patriarchy books recently. I could barely put this down. It was an absolutely fantastic read. #booksky

Bingo! 🎯

I support the soldier.

If you voted for VP Kamala Harris, have a great day! 😎

We’re the richest country on earth, yet we have the highest maternal mortality rate compared to our peer countries — and we punish doctors for honoring their oath to help and heal. We deserve better.

They aren't Wrong..

Perfect...

And WE RALLIED together THEN as well....We are a DEMOCRACY.........

Central Park tonight; NYC.

To all those who said boycotting Target was a waste of time. It wasn't. Keep it up, y'all!

In Arkansas, we don’t wait for permission — we show up. We rally. We rise. We defend what matters most. The movement’s alive in every bold step we take together. Be loud.📣 Be fearless.💪 Be there.✊️ #50501Arkansas #50501LittleRock #50501Movement #thePeoplesProtestsandMarchesAR

#Australia #election #FuckTrump

Hakeem Jeffries is right: the pressure is working. Republicans are rattled, and the extremist budget cuts are starting to crack. Now is *not* the time to let up. Keep calling, keep posting, keep organizing—because democracy works when we do. 📞📢🔥

Canada, we’re with you! TRUMPISM IS REPUDIATED IN AUSTRALIA! #auspol

nypost.com/2025/04/17/u... Under Stalin, anyone who crossed him in any way was as good as dead. But do you know who would’ve died the fastest? Someone from within the system saying, “You can’t criticize Stalin.” That person would’ve vanished quicker than anyone else. Let's see then.

Ah yes, just your average Saturday with protests in all 50 states. Totally normal democracy stuff, right? People marching for climate action, human rights, immigration reform — but hey, everything’s going great. Definitely no sign that folks are fed up with how things are being run. Lol.

"We no longer fight wars to win; we fight them to sustain the illusion that peace is impossible. The truce is not a pause in violence, but its most obscene form—violence pretending to be moral."

Not all heroes wear capes.

What a line from Warren Buffett this morning: “Be kind, and the world is better off. I'm not sure that the world will be better off if I'm richer." [applause] 🙏🏼
