There are 257 Democratic/Independent House members in Congress. Why is it we only hear from a handful? Why aren't all 257 holding press briefings, screaming from the rooftops? Informing their constituents what they can do?

I’m rereading 1984 for the first time since the 1960s. It’s chilling, it’s current, and it’s never been more relevant. What a brilliant, horrifying book.

Anyone remember his role in “TheThorn Birds,” one of the sexiest miniseries of its time? We were living in NJ, and the local cable service went dark just as the priest and his female friend were about to copulate. We were on a different service and saw the whole thing. I read the book soon after!

This is the level of ignorance we're up against. I never expected the end times to look like this.

Martial Law. It’s the elephant in the room. It’s what authoritarians resort to when the tide turns against them. It’s what the authoritarian in this White House is setting the stage for. 🧵…

It’s NOW. Not when congressional committees complete their investigations, not when the next Supreme Court justice dies or resigns, not when the midterms come around. For God’s sake and ours, stop wasting time predicting the future. WE ARE ALREADY THERE.

Not satisfied with purchasing a Presidential Election to become co-President, Sissy SpaceX now wants to buy himself a Supreme Court judge in Wisconsin. You can end his shopping spree, Wisconsinites! 🚫 💰 #VoteForJudgeSusanCrawford 🗳️ ✅ 👍 This is super important.

RFK is a eugenics freak first and foremost and everything falls downstream from that. he *wants* excess deaths. he thinks that only the "fit" should survive.

Pete Hegseth should no longer be Secretary of Defense. Mike Waltz should no longer be National Security Advisor. Tulsi Gabbard should no longer be Director of National Intelligence. John Ratcliffe should no longer be Director of Central Intelligence.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

10 years ago, if group of miscellaneous people were hauled out of bedrooms, work & off the street & flown without hearing to brutal prison in El Salvador, you would have said must be in Chile or Russia or China, not US. "Can't happen here." It is happening here . Why are you now allowing it?

Get this - Steve Witkoff (real estate mogul, now ME envoy) was IN RUSSIA when he was on the Signal group chat with Walz and Hegseth. They learn from Trump. Classified information is to be shared with anyone with no regards for National Security Or the safety of Americans or active military.

I was today years old when I learned that detailed descriptions of an imminent military strike, including timing, targets and weaponry, are not considered classified information anymore.
