It is so profoundly frustrating how full of shit republicans are. After years of screaming about pedophiles, email security, corruption, we are undermining children’s safety, created the biggest data breach in history, and are letting a billionaire steal even more from the federal government.

If they actually cared about protecting children, they wouldn’t be letting sex traffickers to return with no legal ramifications.

Again, I am begging just one elected official to say that anything Elon Musk does or says in this government should be treated as an illegal order until his authority is clarified by federal courts. Anyone complying with his demands—up to and including the president—will be violating Section 3, 14A.

In 2020, the military was adamant about refusing to get involved in the election. That's why Trump hates General Mark Milley so much. Now, Trump is transforming the military into one that will back him up in 2029. We need to figure out how to prepare for that eventuality.

Black and white college students went to MISSISSIPPI in 1964 to register people to vote. They got shot at, bombed, beaten and killed. These pampered fucks need to take accountability and act.

It’s been a 4 day weekend of bitter cold, so the kids are all fricken nuts, and they just canceled school for tomorrow 😬

Is everyone really struggling with the concept that we are supposed to keep working our day jobs as we descend into a fascist dictatorship?

Found the death panels

President Musk and Kennedy Center chairman Trump are stealing from us.

We learned fairness as children. As adults, we should stand up for that value and what it truly means.

I can’t believe the Supreme Court said the president was above the law and now the president is acting like he’s above the law.

The thing about trans rights, DEI, and accommodations for disabled people is that it makes all of our lives better. As a society, we should leverage all of our talents. We should allow folks to express themselves however feels authentic to themselves.

lawyers: your bat signal has been activated

I’m in Porto this week, a second tier city in a country with half of the gdp per capita as the USA, and they are rapidly expanding their subway system. The United States is not a society, it is a company town for billionaires to rent seek from. We can afford nice things, or billionaires, not both.

Does hiking drunk through Porto with 3 bottles of wine in my back pack count as rucking?

Currently coping with the ongoing coup by drunkly listening to the inspector gadget theme played on an organ.

When Elon Musk flees the country with hundreds of billions of ill gotten gains, I hope we hunt him to the ends of the earth and bring him to justice.

Ethel Rosenberg got the chair for doing a lot less damage to U.S. national security than Elon Musk has done this week

the fucking enforcement arm of the federal government is launching a war on integration an effort to push tens of millions of americans to the bottom of an arbitrary hierarchy of value and yeah, it pisses me off to see nominal allies say “oh yeah maybe they have a point”

Trying to balance outrage, action, and self-care through obsessions.

Schatz subtweeting half this site, and he's right

"complying in advance" includes saying "i'm against trumpism but i agree with keeping trans people out sports"

it's weird because that staffer's not totally wrong! if you live in a Republican district (or in a state with Republican senators) you should call them IN ADDITION TO calling the dems. yes, dems should fight but Republicans are the ones doing the coup!

I kept saying, not only could he, but he could just delete all the files, and should have. Erase all records.

It’s really like Aesop’s fable of the scorpion and the frog, except the scorpion was saying he’d sting the front to death the whole time and the frog still let him climb on…. It’s all just so stupid.
