This is huge.

A little tranquility from Otis and Lucy. (Want to make your life measurably better, and have a constant source of joy and laughter in these dark times? Rescue a pit bull, folks. They never disappoint.)

I’m not George Takei, but I also approve of this message.

I’m worried about myself, because I would totally try this.

Yep.

Yes, this.

I’m going with “he doesn’t care what Congress thinks because he knows that they won’t stop him.”

Just to be clear, the moment they willfully ignore orders from a federal judge, the last functioning check on executive power will be gone, and we will have staggered into fascist autocracy. This tweet is a tell, setting up a righteous justification for it - “saving” the country.

Yes. These two things.

Between Trump’s impeding surrender of Ukraine to Putin and the confirmation of Tulsi Gabbert, it’s probably appropriate to congratulate the USSR on its improbable come-from-behind win in the Cold War.

Hey, Dems in Congress, the reason we keep calling & asking you to do more is b/c we need you to do more. From our POV it looks like there’s no strategy & we elected you to represent us. If there’s something you need us to do, tell us & we’ll help but whatever you’re doing now isn’t working.

Preach, Congresswoman!

Pretty damn good framing for Dems

Uncle Flavor knows.

Tough but fair.

This is only ok if he means that Ukraine gets to keep the bits of Russia that they’ve occupied.

Pretty much.

Feels like Democratic senators could learn something about being hard-headed from this 8th grade girl.

Terrific.

They’re absolutely going for it. Doesn’t mean they’re going to be successful, and in fact I think it’s like shooting the moon, but everyone needs to understand what they are attempting.

I want this to be real SO BAD.

You guys are both heroes.

He’s so damned stupid. Sweet Lord.

If you had 3 1/2 weeks in the “When will they start micromanaging and disassembling university curricula” pool, congratulations. avlwatchdog.org/trump-mandat...

She’s always been Lucy with the football. I don’t know why anyone expects anything different from her.

This is bad.

1/ OK, Democratic members of Congress in the US Senate. It’s time for some tough love. I am aware your pollsters and consultants tell you things like “the American people want us to work together” and “ focus on prescription drug prices in the economy.”

Holy crap…
