Just call it the Self-Inflicted Wound Era, when we took a bunch of stuff that was working largely fine (vaccines, weather monitoring, friendly relations with like 175 countries, cancer research, renewable energy credits, the FAA, global trade, etc etc) and just broke them for giggles

Educated folks are less likely to for vote for Republicans, so Republicans defund education...

In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep Through the valley of fear To a river so deep I've been searching for something Taken out of my soul Something I'd never lose Something somebody stole Billy Joel

We got Bruce Springsteen and they got Kid Rock. We are not the same!

'If you shorten a dog chain one link at a time, every few days, until his chain is too short for him to move, he won't resist because he's been conditioned to the slow, progressive loss of his freedom. That's what is happening to you.'

WATCH THIS. He gets it right Nottoway Plantation: the so-called “White Castle”, burned down. With it, a monument to whitewashed brutality. We don’t need romanticized nostalgia for slavery. We need truth. Let this be the end of pretending these places were anything but what they were: crime scenes.

“Each of your actions which is not related either distantly or immediately to an end which serves the common good tears life apart, and prevents it from being one. It is a seditious act, as when, within a nation, someone separates his party from the concordant union of all citizens.” Marcus Aurelius

Weird. Rome has an American Pope and America has a Russian President.

"When once a Republic is corrupted, there is no possibility of remedying any of the growing evils but by removing the corruption and restoring its lost principles; every other correction is either useless or a new evil." ~ Thomas Jefferson

'If it is not right, do not do it; if it is not true, do not say it.' - Marcus Aurelius A timeless reminder to embrace honesty in all we do. #Stoicism #Truth #Integrity

"You think evil is going to come into your houses wearing big black boots. It doesn’t come like that. Look at the language. It begins in the language." —Joseph Brodsky

Hi, I’m God. And I’m extremely worried about planet Earth. 😟

Our Founders plan for religion in the USA: Do it on your own time & Do it with your own dime.

What could have been 🥹😭😩

People who imagine that constant exposure to religious indoctrination will make a child grow up to be religious never knew any preacher's kids growing up.

You made it yesterday, and that means you can make it today. When you’ve made it through today, it means you can make it tomorrow. -Jack Hopkins #MentalHealth

Science has never made me doubt the existence of a loving God, but some Christians have.

Listening to Benson Boone sing is the best part of my day. Young American ❤️

My theory that most people are simply not very smart continues to pan out daily

"You pray for the hungry. Then you feed them. This is how prayer works." Pope Francis

Annihilation is never the goal of the oppressor. Because small minded, insecure, hateful people can only feel powerful when they are standing on top of someone else. Traci Blackmon

Idiot America never learns any lessons.

I miss the days when you could go minutes, hours even, without thinking about what the President was doing.

“This happens today: if the investments in the banks fall slightly… a tragedy… what can be done? But if people die of hunger, if they have nothing eat, if they have poor health, it does not matter! This is our crisis today!” -Pope Francis

Rhinos' horns are removed as a protective measure against poachers to discourage illegal hunting. Human is the most dangerous animal on the planet. Either way, hunt or protect removing the horn… we hurt them. I’m so sorry…

Serious question. Kristi Noem was pictured with a Rolex in El Salvador, and got 3k in cash stolen. She has been on a govt salary for years. Something aint right

Hey Dr Oz! I was a perfectly healthy young adult who ate the right food and exercised 2 hours a day but it didn't keep me from getting an autoimmune disease that took over my body. Patriotic duty to stay healthy? Disability can happen to anyone, anywhere, at any time! Even doctors!

Many are comparing contemporary America to 1930s Germany and 2nd century Rome, but there's a better historical analogy: 1970s Jonestown.

I'm thinking about how tonight was probably the first time Kilmar Abrego Garcia learned that millions of people care about him - the first time he learned that the United States Supreme Court ruled 9-0 to bring him home. I'm thinking what it must mean for him to know, right now, that he isn't alone.

Hey Donold, Joe Biden brought Brittney Griner home from a Russian gulag, but you can’t bring home Kilmar Abrego García? You gonna let Joe be a better dealmaker than you?

my favorite Bible story is probably the one where Jesus disappears an innocent person into a slave-labor gulag and then jets off for a weekend of golf at Galilee-a-Lago

“When the storm shall be past, he shall find us still Americans; no less devoted to the continued Union and prosperity of the country than heretofore.” Abraham Lincoln

I am so deeply ashamed of the human race, particularly the ones who think it’s funny to pick on the vulnerable.

Can't be a Constitutional Crisis if there ain't no Constitution, amiright?
