To any American who doesn't comprehend what is happening to our country-- We are under attack! The right wing agenda is to destroy the progressive movement and replace it with autocracy. They realize that fair elections are bad for them. They would rather burn it down than give up power.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

South Koreans are providing the world a masterclass on how to handle a power hungry president.

Today, I stand in solidarity with the Jewish community in commemorating International Holocaust Remembrance Day. We must never forget or brush aside the horrors inflicted on our fellow humans because of the doctrines of hate and division. #NeverForget

Taking responsibility for your own actions.

Mike Johnson on January 6, 2021: “I unambiguously condemn in the strongest possible terms any and all forms of violent protest. Any individual who committed violence today should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law”

Conservative columnist George Will: “Donald Trump does not deal in felicities. His second inaugural will be remembered for being worse than 59 others, including his first (about “stealing,” “ravages” and “carnage”). It was memorable for its staggering inappropriateness.”

I will not be watching America's national funeral.

That Felony Guy makes zero sense and is only going to get worse.

This is the kind of leadership failure we should notice. Forget Trump here. These California Republicans thought it was more important to go to Florida than help in whatever way they could where the crisis is happening.

Braedon: I come from a nation that believed in fascist ideology for a while. And we don’t want to go to that again. We are close to it because people want to simplify complex problems. The essence of fascism is to simplify complex problems and feed people who don't have time to read some bullshit.

Shoutout to Canada for sending planes and helicopters from BC and Quebec to fight California’s fires. THIS is how allies act. Not with ego or threats, but with REAL help when it’s needed.

Today, we honor the life of Jimmy Carter, a man who dedicated himself to serving others. From his military service to his presidency and his tireless humanitarian efforts, he embodied selflessness and compassion. His heart matched the greatness of his legacy. Rest in peace, President Carter.

Florida grand jury investigating COVID-19 vaccines finds no evidence of criminal activity in yet another waste of taxpayer money by Governor Desantis! Two years and Millions wasted on what was just an attempt to get him elected President. www.yahoo.com/news/florida...

I’m not a fan of roller coasters - this feels like we are being forced to ride one for the next four years!
