“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist” James Baldwin

Correct. He’s not capable of playing multidimensional chess. Or chess. Or checkers. Or tic-tac-toe. As one of his aides put it during Shit Show I, “he’s just eating the pieces” on the board. Nothing he does is strategic. He’s purely guided by narcissistic, sociopathic impulses at all times.

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

Democrats must make clear that, of course, we believe in changing government for the better - and show how different that is from Trump's destruction of government's capacity to protect workers, consumers, and families.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

Count me in, ladies!! 💙💙

i don’t trust people who aren’t overly caffeinated and don’t use “fuck” as a sentence enhancer.

Like I said… a lot he doesn’t know. 🙄

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

I think there’s a lot that Trump doesn’t know… including right from wrong and how to spell his wife’s name.

I find it bizarre that we managed to go through 44 Presidents in over 200 years without hearing the term "quid pro quo" related to them, and now we've had it at least twice with the same crooked fucking asshole. So tired of this shit.

Every single attorney who advocates for the defiance of court orders should be DISBARRED. Immediately. Every. Single. One.

Yup.

Fuck.

Make your calls. Go to your town halls. Ask your state and local officials what they are doing under state and local law. Rest. Hydrate. Make soup for the hungry. Don’t let people tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Not a sprint. Not a marathon. A relay. Find your team. Thank you.

What is it about watching a 4-year-old tell a 78-year-old with the maturity of a 2-year-old to "shut up and go away" that is SO deeply satisfying?

On Abraham Lincoln's 216th birthday, it's worth listening to this important warning he gave us back in 1838. Does any of this sound familiar to you? www.youtube.com/shorts/s2WcV...

it is genuinely incredible that all you have to do is scratch the surface and it becomes clear that each of these guys is a huge piece of shit

PLEASE SHARE.

Thou shalt not spend millions on Super Bowl ads about Jesus when you could’ve used it to feed the hungry.

The richest man in the world is sitting at the Resolute desk, about to defund your public school. Trump should stop him.

As the forces of hatred are on the march, my promise is this: Our trans neighbors will continue to be safe, protected, and welcome in Minnesota.

Oops 😬

I don't get it: trump is firing lifetime law enforcement officers who keep us safe, but he wants to bring back some racist DOGE bro who bragged he was "racist before it was cool" at JD Couch's suggestion? Insanity.

ABC: “federal judge blocked Trump administration from orchestrating its plan to place 2,200 employees of USAID on leave at midnight… also ordered reinstatement of 500 workers and ordered no USAID employees should be evacuated from their host countries…”

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

What. The. Actual. Fuck.

ICYMI: I talked to federal employees across eight agencies about the internal chaos they're experiencing because of Trump/Musk and how they feel going forward in their jobs. A clear theme? They are scared -- and also pissed and digging in for a fight. "Fuck that." www.huffpost.com/entry/federa...

Ronald E. McNair: Father, Husband, Physicist, NASA Astronaut, Pioneer in the Field of Lasers (SO COOL). We tragically lost him in the tragedy of the 1986 Challenger Space Shuttle. He was selected to become part of NASA group 8, the first class that included both women and minorities. 🧵 1/4
