Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

I’m grateful @governor.pa.gov and his family are safe after a terrible attack — which was particularly horrific for a Jewish family on the first night of Passover. Hate and violence have no place in our country.

I work in marketing and marketing psychology. And people make decisions based on emotion, not logic. Then they seek out sources that back up those emotional decisions. With access to endless viewpoints online, it's easy to find SOMEONE who will provide the "logic" for ANY emotional decision

Buffoons every one of them 🤡

Mind blowing level of delusion to claim that people on Social Security would be OK without it.

I'm sorry, but "they took over the whole federal payments system, fired the career staff, and won't let anybody see what they're doing" is not a situation in which you wait for more information.

Anyone emphasizing the need to "reach across the aisle" or "find common ground" right now is really saying "my privilege protects me from the danger you are facing", whether they know that or not. The inability to be self-aware by most people in power right now is so demoralizing to so many of us.

Every lib who wrote an oped, essay, book, podcast script, or popular social media thread where they condescendingly & naively lampooned The Left for exaggerating the threats of fascism in the current conjuncture can go pound sand. Redeem yourselves by doing something now that actually matters.

Not only do 17% of US coffee imports come from Colombia…Colombia is also the largest supplier of cut flowers to the United States. Valentine’s Day is in 18 days.
