Beware of politicians making promises they will not have the authority to keep. And as the say goes, "Watch the hunter's bow, not the hunter's tears."

contrarian.substack.com/p/you-cant-b... What a legacy this man is creating for himself. Congress should be utterly ashamed for contributing to this clusterf**k. I hope all the money they are making from the market is worth it. We are only as strong as our weakest link…our government

Shout out to Sen. Wyden for his tireless work on basically everything, and also to his staff for being rockstars, and also ALSO to the senator for acknowledging his staff as driving forces in their work.

The folks at NATO ran rings around our dope of a president. Here, kiddo, stay at the Danish palace. Oh, you are so SMART. Such a big, smart boy! All the while doing exactly as they must to work around his whims and peeves. The man cannot distinguish between respect and empty flattery.

The base of the Democratic Party, the engine that drives it, the most reliable bloc of voters on whom we depend, is Black Women. I’m sick of hearing that “the base” of the Party is people who hold their vote hostage unless they get their way.

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

The Holocaust is not an analogy for anything bad happening in the world today. It is not the equivalent of any recent war or injustice or "whatabout" you want to add. The industrialized murder of six million Jews, including most of my family, stands alone.

“I promise you, it would have been a war crime.” that’s what Alejandro Barranco told me what would have happened if he treated a detainee when he was deployed to Afghanistan with the Marines like federal agents treated his father.

Just because your candidate loses, doesn’t mean your votes did not matter or are not real. And anyone who encourages this kind of insane nonsense, is very actively working to suppress votes. Deplorable shit right here.

There is a stray wild turkey roaming the neighborhood that we can track by which dogs are barking their heads off in which yards. Mr. Turkey had a showdown with a bus driver who was (understandably) on his last inch of patience. Mr. Turkey left the altercation and found the chihuahuas at the corner.

Three years ago, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade endangering millions of lives and stripping away our fundamental right to make our own health care decisions. Abortion is health care, and we must pass the Women’s Health Protection Act to fully restore access to reproductive health care.

Reproductive freedom is about more than health care; it is about women’s rights, individual rights, & human rights. The foundation of the Women’s Health Protection Act is simply the right to make your own health care decisions. 1/

We are posting this placard at all of our offices and asking our union contract farms to post as well. We encourage our friends to put up similar placards at their business as immigration agents do not have the right to go on private property without permission.

ICE is basically going after people based on their skin color, race, or ethnicity. They’re detaining U.S. citizens and people who have a right to be here. It’s mass racial profiling.

Sometimes, when we vote, we do not have the luxury of voting for a candidate we feel unconflicted about. Sometimes, we cringe when we tap the screen or fill in the oval. Sometimes, the bus we are catching stinks. Those elections might be the most important ones. Harm reduction is extremely valid.

Blocking anyone who, naively or maliciously, lays all the blame on the Democrats and who fails to lay any blame on the real cause - the Republicans. Supportive criticism is good. Bullshit and outright lies are not good.
