The Washington Post trying to frame this as anything other than a massive failure is so pathetic. How did the organizers of this parade manage to make the mightiest military in the world look so toothless? Why is the paper who broke the Washington Post amplifying hollow propaganda? Shameful.

Timely perspective and wisdom from Rebecca Solnit. "I believe ardently that nonviolent resistance is ... the most effective strategy, but that doesn't mean it must be polite, placid, or please our opponents, not least because nothing ever will and they'll lie and distort no matter what." 💯

Exactly! I keep hearing "wow, the two parties are so polarized, they're just on opposite ends of the political spectrum" NO! They're both beholden to billionaires and nobody is on the side of normal people. The Republicans are just better at convincing people they're on their side.

Buying a home next to a well-known nude park (in a city that doesn't ban public nudity), and then getting mad that people are naked in the park, has to be the dumbest unforced error ever.

God forbid the Democrats do anything at all. They're really trying to just hide until this goes away, aren't they?

US leaders keep saying we need to compete with China, but refuse to invest in the structures that would let us do that.

Liz Cheney didn't actually write this, but it's still important. Pramila Jayapal is doing a couple of these, but why aren't Democrats doing more?
