We see what they’re doing. They’re baiting us, trying to provoke violence to justify a crackdown. Don’t give them the footage they want. Every broken window becomes propaganda in their hands. Stay sharp. Stay united. We’re here to fight for justice, not feed their narrative.

I’ll say it again - when *any* politician uses the ‘I haven’t read that story’ lie about something they knew they would get asked about, the interviewer has a duty to say ‘Okay, in that case I’m going to terminate this interview and you can come back when you’re better prepared.”

If you don't want to be compared to the Gestapo, one neat trick is to not engage in a campaign of terror around the country wherein you kidnap people off the streets to slave dungeons in accommodation of an autocratic fascist and his nationalist movement's desire for racial purity.

Hauled off to a detention center WEARING CHAINS AROUND HER WRISTS AND ANKLES and she'll be held there FOR A MONTH before she gets to see a judge, all because she made an illegal right turn on red. Jesus. And remember -- that ugliness is the due process that the Trump folks whine is too much.

Hey all, do you know what your paid representatives are doing right now in the House? Do you know how hard they’re working for you right now? They’re debating a bill on renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America . WT actual F? How is that not fraud, waste and abuse? #GOPThieves

It really takes a lot for me to say this, but the Graham tweet is genuinely a pretty offensive thing to say.

If you wonder why men *obsessed* with the United States having more children are kidnapping children and sending them to other countries, those children were the incorrect color.

When a car is stuck in the mud, everybody who pushes is welcome. Save the arguments for when the job is done.

Toxicologist here! This will improve the health of zero Americans. Current synthetic food dyes are not causing health problems, and are often times used because they are actually safer than natural food dyes. Reminder that guns are the #1 cause of death of children but we are going to ban food dyes.

Will these protests protect our country? I think they’ll help. For those of us in deep red states, like South Carolina, the rallies give a huge morale boost. Hopefully they give Congress the push to uphold their oath of office and to defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies.
