Really hard being an empath these days. I can’t even leave one cheerio in the bowl without feeling sorry for it.

If there's a hell, it will be filled with people who claimed faith in Jesus, while trying to strip the sick of care, the terrified of refuge, and the vulnerable of protection, and reveled in it as if it were a righteous victory. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/republican...

The USA is barely recognizable after 4 months; if you think you can sit on the sidelines and it will be handed back to you in four years you are out of your mind.

"Why attack universities? Why attack journalism? Because ignorance works for power ... With that done, power can rewrite history with grotesque, false narratives. They can make criminals heroes and heroes criminals." trib.al/oyBvPkF

He’s either chicken out on tariffs or he is manipulating the market…. #TACO

She is an American citizen, the daughter of a U.S. Navy service member from Illinois, who was stationed in the Philippines during the Vietnam War. This is fascism, plain and simple.

Kamala Harris on “the big, beautiful bill:” “It’s an agenda...a narrow, self-serving vision of America...where they punish truth tellers, favor loyalists, profit from their power, and leave everyone else to fend for themselves.” Nailed it! 🔥

Who will tell the president what the Constitution requires? Certainly not Attorney General Bondi. And certainly not this nominee for the Office of Legal Counsel.

Vladimir Putin is a sworn enemy of the United States. Appeasement was never going to work. Why is that so difficult to understand?

Crime pays when you pay for campaign rallies!

Said it before, I’ll say it again. We shouldn’t privatize NASA. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/s...

Narrator: they were not considering the offer

Senate offices are closed right now. Their inboxes aren't. Send your letters demanding Senators not cut health care or food assistance. Let's send 1,000 in the next 2 hours: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Not a coincidence.

It’s … weirdly reassuring to know the Russians think he’s as idiotic as we do.

Good thing for Putin he has such a good friend in WH to run cover for him while he continues to bomb civilians.

Guys, it's the oligarchs. If you want to blame someone for 2024, blame the oligarchs. Anyone telling you to blame someone else is part of the oligarchy. Dark money has been to blame since citizens united.

New data finds Americans are more likely to support labor unions over Big Business than at any time in the past 60 years. We are witnessing a historic rebirth of worker power.  If you want a better life for you and your children, join or support a union.

There it is. Trump confirms what we've said all along - he's been protecting Putin this entire time.

Wasting money. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/b...

Too many of my white friends are still doing risk analysis, still weighing the costs of expressing their new revelations, still concerned about what they will lose by speaking out. The reality is, the risks and consequences of silence are far greater. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/white-frie...

Nothing sadder than a tough guy who needs to remind you he's tough, right after admitting to shielding Russia.

Seems like Donald Trump is getting nowhere with his 50% tariffs on the EU and is begging China to make a deal again. I thought he made a deal with China? 🙄

So this is not the defense she thinks it is...

This is a senior Justice Department official. Who is in charge of pardons. And also in charge of investigating the “politicization” of the Justice Department.

That’s not a judge, that’s a racist predator in black robe. Absolutely disgusting but completely normal in MAGA world.

CBS reporter Scott Pelley: This is a warning that I fear many will look back on in five or six years and think “he was so right”. If you haven’t already shared this, please do.

Truth.

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat. They're trying to get away with it again.

9/29/2023— General Milley farewell speech: “We don’t take an oath to a tribe, we don't take an oath to a religion, we don't take an oath to a king or queen, or a tyrant, or a dictator, and we don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator.” Never forget our country and Constitution come before any man.

🎯

For years MAGA/Fox falsely accused President Biden of laundering and stealing money which is the furthest from the truth, but now they’re okay with the orange felon’s newly acquired $400M luxury Qatar jet bribe and his $2B crypto scheme. Immoral corrupt fucking hypocrites.

Beyond parody

When you realize you are collateral damage to your own cruelty.

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy. Now is the time for fearless leadership.

Thank you to all of the brave men and women who fought for our country’s freedom today, especially to those who fought against fascism since a madman is trying to strip away our rights and descend this country into tyranny. 🇺🇸

George Floyd was murdered by police five years ago today. The Say Their Names cemetery in Minneapolis features memorials for Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Amadou Diallo, Oscar Grant, Korryn Gaines, Freddie Gray and far too many more Black people who died at the hands of police.

This fake-Christian twerp is such a shameless liar.
