ā€œIt’s a vulgar display. It’s the kind of thing you see with Kim Jong-un, you see it with Putin, you see it with dictators around the world that are weak. Weakness masquerading as strength. That’s about as small as it gets. That’s Donald Trump.ā€ — Newsom on Trump’s military parade.

Eventually, when all is said and done, we will realize that the United States owes Kamala Harris a presidency.

I voted NO on their ā€œbig, beautifulā€ bill because it will strip health care from 14 million Americans—including nearly 130,000 people in my district who rely on Medicaid.

What would encourage you to add to the baby supply?

Senator Van Hollen’s commitment to the Abrego Garcia case isn’t performative. Wearing an overnight maxi pad on your ear after an ā€œassassination attemptā€ is performative.

The fact that I know more about Katy Perry and Lauren SĆ”nchez’s 11-minute space trip than I do about Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito’s decades-long crime spree shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you. Senator Van Hollen lives this attitude – and planted hope in hopelessness. (I’m not crying, you’re crying.)

I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it a thousand times more: If you love freedom but don’t care if it applies to everyone, what you actually love is privilege.

I have this radical lefty belief that voting should be easier than buying a gun.

National Parks as propaganda:

Can we please all agree that this experiment of putting a man who bankrupted a casino in charge of America’s economy is not going well at all?

1. Tulsi Gabbard was overseas while participating in the Signal chat. 2. Steven Witkoff was in Russia when he was added to the Signal chat. 3. Russia infiltrated Signal some time ago to use it against Ukrainians. It’s high time to Benghazi the shit out of Trump’s administration.

Is it at all surprising that a convicted felon would ignore a judge's order?

Well, he wanted to go to Mars, so—

Call me old fashioned, but being Russia’s KGB agent ā€œKrasnovā€ since 1987 should disqualify Trump from being President of the United States. Retroactively, immediately, and forever.

He nails it.

For those of you desperately in need of distraction from today's headlines, here's a photo of a bunny & a chick who are friends.

Endorsing RFK Jr. as HHS secretary is like endorsing Jeffrey Dahmer as dietary adviser.

This isn't a fight that will be settled in the halls of Congress. The oligarchs own GOP Congress. This is a fight that will be settled in the streets. Democrats, Republicans, disillusioned MAGA & independents locking arms. Give GOP Congress something to fear more than the oligarchs. The people.

A couple of (actually serious) thought-experiment questions on where we are and where we’re going: If a bunch of sociopaths are destroying the federal government from within, why should we pay federal taxes? And if they succeed, who’s going to make us pay those taxes?

ā€œTerrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.ā€ Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

John F. Kennedy 22°F / outdoors Jimmy Carter 28°F / outdoors Barack Obama 28°F / outdoors Donald Trump 23°F / indoors It’s not about the cold. — It’s about covering up Trump’s embarrassingly small crowd size.

It has been said before, but it bears repeating: the elderly who’ve worked their entire lives to get $800 a month on Social Security aren’t bankrupting America. It’s tax-evading billionaires like Trump who are bleeding this country dry.

Here’s the deal: All Americans should have the same healthcare as the welfare queens in Congress.

Huge gratitude for our neighbors, Mexico and Canada have sent fire fighters and army to help us.

this is the thing I’ll never understand about these chodes — like how fucking broken do you have to be to know you could literally wipe out so much of what ails the world and then actively, publicly, vociferously choose not to

Call me old fashioned, but I believe that stealing classified documents, encouraging espionage, inciting an armed insurrection, and being a convicted felon and rapist should disqualify any person from trying to be President of the United States.

This. Every day. All day.

I wish I lived in a country where Mitch McConnell, John Kelly, Bill Barr and John Bolton had at least half the balls of E. Jean Carroll, Stormy Daniels, Christine Blasey Ford, or Anita Hill.
