Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

What, exactly, is so damn unique about the American experiment? Other than the fact that we became a superpower after defeating a superpower? What else in our story is even remotely unique in world history?

Whatever happens with public health in the next 3 years is squarely at the feet of Senator Bill Cassidy, who had the deciding vote in advancing Robert Kennedy’s nomination to a Senate vote. Cassidy is an MD. He knows, and he knows better.

What Jesus taught is, in fact, the Gospel of Jesus, not what Paul or Peter or Origen or Augustine taught after Jesus died. And Jesus never once said to believe in his atoning death & resurrection in order to be saved and go to heaven when you die. I don’t understand why this is hard.

What’s the chance of making overtures to Murkowski, Justice, and Collins to switch parties, or at least to go independent caucusing with Democrats?

What’s the likelihood we can flip Stefanik’s and Gaetz’ seats in a special election, and where would be at that point Congress wise if we could achieve that?

A group of uncleared, unvetted, civilians have gained access to all of my federal records including military personnel, retirement and disability. They are reportedly feeding them into AI. I want them arrested and charged with federal crimes. Right fucking now! How is this even a discussion?

BREAKING: Pete Buttigieg continues to hold Trump accountable for his lies. This is how it is done. Don’t let any false assertion go unanswered. We need more of this.

Help me out here: There are true believers in this admin. What do they think they are doing? How, in their minds, are they making America great again? It’s not all self-interested greed. And there are plenty of regular folks cheerleading. Why? What do they see changing that is so positive to them?

My heart is broken, again. Another innocent Black man lynched by Confederate governor Henry McMaster- the third such execution since October. We are not the land of the free nor of the brave. 💔

Don’t call the cops- ever, unless you are aware of an actual violent crime. Cover for shoplifters. Report every jagoff spewing hate speech or misinformation, flood ICE tip lines. Be incompetent at your job if you are asked to snitch. We gotta stick together now.
