We know the reasons. The cruelty is the point.

Well, THAT doesn't sound threatening at all . . .

It's always about making people afraid of the latest boogeyman. It's never actually about safety.

I think this has been effectively proven over the past few years.

The only times I see MAGA change their views to be more progressive is when they are personally affected by the negative consequences of their votes. They are selfish and lack empathy. Pure and simple.

The GOP used to be the party that claimed to be in favor of smaller government, and less government interference in people's lives. How did they become the polar opposite without losing support in less than 20 years?

How true.

Truer words have never been spoken.

Dear Mike Johnson and friends,

I had no intention of watching this particular debate simply because I cannot stand to give Peterson any attention, but after this beautiful exchange, I may have to reconsider.

If they don't want you to read it, then perhaps you should find out exactly why.

As our soldier's rights seem to be eroding away in this day and age, it's important to remember those who fought and died for those rights to be protected, and to do our own part to make sure their sacrifices were not in vain.

Carl Sagan speaking at MIT in 1987 on lowering our C02 emissions. Apply these words to any technological problem our world faces today and it holds up.

This video puts their hypocrisy on full display. The blatant lie that the ten commandments have any historical impact on our nation or its laws persists seemingly more in the 21st century than ever before. It's time for these fairy tales to be relegated to mythology where they belong.

On Memorial Day, we remember those service members in our volunteer army who have made the ultimate sacrifice. I have had both friends and family who have done so. As such, it is more important than ever to safeguard the freedoms they fought and died for. #RESIST

Me, talking to the imaginary audience that's watching my life at all times.

I've not been online much the past several days. Part of it is my health and recovery, which has been far more difficult than I anticipated, though I am assured that I am making excellent progress. Part of it has been due to Mother's Day. A 🧵

This speech by the ever elegantly-spoken @sethandrews.com is powerful. Dissent is our duty. These days more than ever. Please give it a listen when you have the time. #RESIST

I saw the piano and started playing, she said. I stood there listening and watching the people passing by her music and me.

This kid runs circles around the reporter

His wife must be so proud.

Another day of reminding everyone of Carl Sagan’s eerily accurate warning about the dangers of not being able to ask skeptical scientific questions to those in power or authority.

This bill will, essentially, make it illegal to NOT do business with Israel. The language is so open ended that they can interpret a "private boycott" to mean something as simple as nixing a potential contact. It's making certain that Israel has an unfair portion of the market by strong-arm tactics.

This is about all of us. Never forget that.

It is becoming nearly impossible to distinguish political satire from reality these days. The white house posting pictures of Trump as the post are real. We have to examine these absurdities more closely to determine what's real and what isn't. Just imagine how often it happens in less subtle ways.

Beautiful

Your Cherokee words for today. The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.
