This is one of the worst interviews I’ve ever seen. Moran keeps trying to move on from a point Trump is CLEARLY WRONG ON and just says “agree to disagree.” Do your fucking job!

We've learned the Trump Administration has ILLEGALLY withheld over $430B in funds approved by Congress — gutting vital services including child care, disaster relief and more. The courts must continue to hold this lawless president accountable, even if spineless congressional Republicans won't.

In my ongoing quest to draw things outside of my comfort zone, to keep myself from stagnation, here is Poirot ☺️. I also have a Bishoujo version, but this time, let's make it a little more difficult, so if this gets 2 likes, you get Bishoujo Poirot. #Art #Poirot

if there’s one thing a bunch of people I recently talked to about the U.S. in Asia agreed on, it’s “the average American has had so little to fear from their own government, compared to people from many other nations, that they’ve convinced themselves they don’t need to pay attention to politics.”

Not how you think. I didn't suddenly become A New Person. I still like a lot of the same stuff and am a dork. Instead the changes are that it becomes easier TO explore and like new things. Because I don't have a part of my brain screaming at me that I'm Disgusting or Wrong. It's confidence.

Lots of Japanese learning resources here 👇 I mostly use WaniKani for Kanji, and find NHK's easy news https://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/easy/ and the Todaii app very useful for reading news articles. But I also take a weekly in-person evening class, which helps with grammar patterns and conversation.

BREAKING: Police just surrounded Rev. William Barber, prominent activist and pastor, as he and others prayed in the U.S. Capitol Rontunda. Police then expelled everyone (including press!) from the Rotunda to (presumably) arrest them. I've covered protests here a lot. Never seen anything like it.

Last week the Trump administration fired another 8 immigration judges. One judge was fired in the middle of an asylum hearing and had to walk off the bench before the hearing was over! There are now nearly 50 FEWER immigration judges than when Trump took office!

Liberals - do not listen to any messaging that says "Liberals already have it in the bag so Liberal voters needn't bother voting". Disregard that stuff, it is a voter suppression technique. Tomorrow get out and vote come hell or high water. #cdnpoli
