“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

This little crested cactus was a cutting from an acquaintance. I haven't been able to identify the genus/species so far, but love the crested pups and unusual colors. #cactus #crestedcactus #succulents #plantsky #gardeningfeed

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Jasmine Crockett is shredding this solo. But it’s past time for the rhythm section to enter this song already.

I am the great-grandson of a man who led his family out of the shtetl to a strange land in search of a better life. I am the grandson of the three-year-old boy on that journey. As you know, my name is Marc, but my Hebrew name is Elhanan—after the warrior in David’s army who slew a powerful giant.

Is it too much to ask to want the government to stop the president from doing the illegal stuff?

🤣🤣🤣

I forget where I read it, but someone online suggested that maybe we need to dump a bunch of Teslas in the Boston Harbor and declare independence against fascism and oligarchy.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

Bernie is pulling out all the recipts speaking up, speaking out, calling out the lies and hypocrisy... 👏👏👏🎤 @sanders.senate.gov

Nazi salutes are having a moment. Our critic weighs in. Steve Bannon’s offered precise form worthy of 1930s Germany, but Elon Musk’s honored the drug-fueled mania of the original Nazis.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Missouri state Rep. Phil Amato has introduced a new bill, HR 207. The bill will require Missouri to maintain a database tracking women’s pregnancies. The repubs will not stop at Missouri!

Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro was formally charged with attempting a coup to stay in office after his 2022 election defeat in a plot that included a plan to poison his successor, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, and kill a Supreme Court judge.

About 50 years ago, I was reading political thrillers, including several by Fletcher Knebel. His 1966 novel, NIGHT OF CAMP DAVID, centers on a U.S. president who has gone insane. Signs of insanity include: desire for (a) an alliance with the USSR, and (b) annexation of Canada.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

COLLINS: You are a coequal branch of government BERNIE SANDERS: Are we?! I kinda thought so, but you'll have to explain that to the president

How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14? What about the White House?

They voted for the guy who said he would lower the price of eggs. Now we have no eggs.

Adam is absolutely right 💯

Math is hard

According to the trump Golf Tracker website, out of 29 days in office so far, trump has spent 7 of them golfing -- that's 24.14% ALREADY. What a fucking freeloader.

Oh, look what normal countries do when a former president leads a far right coup attempt.

"When I started this, didn’t have a strong objection to the death penalty... But in looking closely at each of these cases I see very troubling signs that make me think that the moral authority to impose an extreme penalty like this is just not available." www.texasstandard.org/stories/texa...
