We’re sending the guy with 0 felony convictions to a horrible prison in El Salvador and keeping the guy with 34 to run the country? Insane.

As the government flings itself apart, we will keep coming back to the grim reality. Trump can’t be restrained, or reasoned with, or babysat for the next four years. The only way to bring power back under the rule of law is to remove a lawless man from power. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Seems like a good day to remind everyone that Auschwitz — a complex of over 40 concentration and extermination camps — was not located in Nazi Germany either.

I can’t not watch his show any harder than I already do, but kudos I guess to Bill Maher for seeing this world historical corruption, demagoguery, attack on rule of law and human rights abuses, and determining that the problem is that liberals aren’t being tolerant enough

Most days I still can't believe Americans elected a fake real estate tycoon moron game show host POTUS once. And then after he incited an insurrection and was convicted of 34 felonies we elected him again and now even more sycophants suck his mushroom dick daily and pretend he's some kind of genius.

MMR vaccine doesn’t just prevent measles, mumps, and rubella. It also prevents RFK Jr. from showing up at your child’s funeral to exploit your grief at your most vulnerable moment.

Today, Trump’s 10% tariffs go into effect which serve only to raise costs for the American people. Here’s a statement the White House released today: “The President won his second round matchup of the Senior Club Championship today in Jupiter, FL, and advances to the Championship Round tomorrow.”

People don't miss manufacturing jobs. They miss the effects of having 30+ percent union density. And we can build worker power again, with good policies, for the jobs most working class people actually have today rather than hoping mumbo jumbo will make it 1955 again.

Man it sure is weird that there’s a manufactured economic crisis that will require historic reindustrialization on the cheap sans worker protections while unions are being marginalized and children prepared for labor and the oligarchs who own the president need support for automation technology.

We simply had to intentionally destroy the world’s strongest economy while dismantling our scientific and educational infrastructure to ensure that a team with a trans girl would never finish second place in the Mountain West volleyball standings again

Every so often, it just comes back to me in full force. The political and economic order that allowed this man to come to power is obviously no longer tenable. The leaders who let it happen obviously have to be replaced. This is an epoch defining failure and we have to turn the page completely.

When I was 17, I opened my first checking account w/a couple hundred bucks. I didn’t meet the min monthly deposit, so they kept charging fees until I owed them money. It stuck with me—I still won’t bank w/BofA. There’s no upside to this move for anyone who isn’t rich—just cruelty for cruelty’s sake

All I keep thinking about is how Pete Hegseth raised questions of the competency of a Black four-star general and Air Force fighter pilot who was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Hegseth asked did he get the job “because of his skin color? Or his skill? We’ll never know, but always doubt.”

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

#Columbia has shown what has always been true. Liberals respect raw power and money... principles are only social ornamentation that can be easily cast off the second they are inconvenient. They bend the knee to #fascism without even a symbolic act of resistance. #Resist #Cowards

#Gaza: Along with hundreds of others across the Strip, our colleague Alaa Abd-Elsalam Ali Okal was killed in on March 18 following the resumption of Israeli attacks. Hundreds more were injured in this abrupt end to the ceasefire. Our thoughts are with his family.
