Gaslighting is the entire GOP playbook. From ‘biggest crowd ever’ to ‘normal tourist visit,’ they’re betting you’ll ignore reality. If we allow them to keep rewriting history, they’ll keep burning the truth to the ground.

I'm so tired of it. Neil Gaiman claiming autism. Musk claiming autism. Autism doesn't make you do terrible, terrible things. Stop. Blaming. Autism.

this is, in fact, just another cover story. the guy supports the AfD. this is like ppl who try to separate "online" from "irl." it isn't "edgy cosplay" as in a costume that doesn't define one's character; it's merely a limpid expression of his politics, extraordinary for the moment for its clarity.

Only a Nazi would make little “jokes” like this. Notice how he hasn’t actually denied being a Nazi. But he’s got jokes? Elon Musk is a Nazi.

Hey, Dems. Stop saying Trump cut funding for the “Bipartisan Infrastructure Act,” & start saying “Trump defunded our roads & bridges.” Focus on the concrete actions that impact everyday Americans. Messaging & language matter.

Trump is literally purging the federal government of Black people and women. So the people who told us he wasn’t a racist or misogynist were full of shit.

“I WiSh DeMs DiD ThIs” We did a lot. We did pass executive orders to undo bad things. We got legislation passed via reconciliation & with bipartisan help because the bills were good. 90% your complaints are solved if you’d have listened to Hillary about the courts ahead of 2016.

Don’t expect to hear about salmonella, bird flu, or Covid outbreaks. “The Trump administration has directed federal health agencies to halt all forms of external communication. This includes suspending health advisories, scientific reports, and website updates.” www.devdiscourse.com/article/heal...

this honestly goes a long way toward explaining why the coverage of the Biden administration was so egregiously terrible

This Cybertruck did not crash. It made a heartfelt and perhaps ill-advised gesture that, in the moment, might have been misinterpreted as a crash, but we should not rush to judgement.

I'm not crying, I'm mad as hell. I'm mad because people wanted a level of purity in a politician that was never going to happen. Instead,we have a fucking demon and his demented evil sidekick who only want to hurt us all.

Four years ago I wrote my inaugural poem The Hill We Climb. Both when I wrote it and performed it, I did so while continuously reflecting on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and Coretta Scott King’s legacy.

By pardoning the most violent January 6th attackers, Trump is telling them to commit more violence in his name, and if and when they do — he will protect them. We are all in terrible danger.

I love this so much! At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions. This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

Presidents should not be allowed to pardon people they egged on into committing their crimes. It's not forgiveness, it's lawlessness.
