What time are we meeting to eat the rich? We are in the middle of a constitutional crisis, Bezos is OBVIOUSLY a supporter of this admin, so by default, every heifer that got on blue origin is too. FU Katy Perry. Thought you were a real one, but nah.

Thank you, Senator. You're doing the real world. Gives me some hope for the first time since November.

The damage he will do the next 4 years will take decades to fix. I hope the cheap eggs were worth it 🙄

Yes, even if they don't fake it, gerrymandering is a real issue too. Ugh.

I'm so sorry. Carrying that with you is hard. It's not just written in a history book. It's your families reality. Some people are fortunate to not know the stories of their loved ones, but they also naively think it can't possibly happen again. Meanwhile, here you and I are...

How did his supporters read this shit and think "yes this will do"?

I get it. My own grandma fled Germany into Poland. Eventually, she found her way to the US. She passed 25 years ago this month. I was 11, but I remember the stories. My husbands grandfather fled to the US when his whole family was killed. There was nothing left for him. I can't speak my fears. 😓

I see he's working hard.

Went to our costco today and tried our best to get everything we needed. We will continue to do so.

I imagine it looks a lot like what a daycare would look like if 4 year olds were in charge of 2 year olds with no adults in sight 🤣

Yes, I think those different interests and desire to stay in power past the midterm will hurt them, though. Maybe I'm too optimistic. However, we've seen how the parties in power (on both sides) fumble when they start to worry about their own reelection.

I don't either, which honestly could be a good thing. I expect a good chunk of his EO's to get held up in courts. With midterms looming in less than 2 years, and R's having more seats up than D's, they're gonna start trying to protect themselves. Sooner than later they will be eating their own.

Im so here for this.

Biden did and passed things that previous president's only talked about do. A big one is the infrastructure bill. My husband works for a company that has never done better as a result of the bill. That's just one thing. Show me something Trump has done, EVER, that compares.

I need a cross comparison of those who upheld DEI but who DIDN’T fund Trump’s campaign *cough* looking at you TJ Maxx

I hate that he's been villianized in all of this. I feel like he's one of the good ones.

They played games and those games will result in dire consequences for people both here and abroad. Saying fuck you is actually polite at this point.

The right has let women and disabled people suffer forever. They don't care.

Technology and the Tech Bros aren’t here to save us. A radical idea might be try and limit gun availability.

Something is different about her these days...

It IS universally unpopular by both sides. Im in several groups where parents from both sides are against it for two very different reasons: one sees how it will chip away public schools, and the other doesn't want the gOvErNmEnT in their business. This is a scam by Bill Lee. Protect public school.

Like Vivek, it's only a matter of time until Musk is pushed out. Trump can't handle egos as big or bigger than him. Sit, wait, and watch them feast on eachother in due time.

Appreciate you, Mark. You're a good one.

She was the light in the darkness I needed today. Let Bishop Mariann Budde inspire all of us to be the light the world needs right now. It feels awful right now, but we must only rest enough to catch our bearings to continue to resist.

Make sure she is safe.
