THREAD: Democracy demands that elected leaders do not cave into threats - or fears - of violence. If you're in Congress afraid for your safety, you must tell the Capitol Police to get protection. Or its time to quit the institution and let someone else do the job. www.rawstory.com/morning-joe-...

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

We have DEI because we have racism. DEI didn’t stop White people from getting anything. It just helped others to have a chance to get something they were qualified to have.

Republicans: Affirmative action is bad! DEI is bad! We need a meritocracy! Also Republicans: Welcome to Tucker Carlson’s son, Buckley, the newest member of JD Vance’s staff.

Apparently, some fool on That Other Social Media sight railed against "the sin of empathy" with regards to a certain bishop. Another example that Christian Nationalism was never about Christianity.

She said, “May I ask you to have mercy Mr. President on those in our communities whose children fear that their parents will be taken away." If Mike Johnson thinks that’s “radical,” perhaps he has a fundamental misunderstanding of his own religion.

The point of the firehose of Executive Orders is to disorient and to demobilize. It's to instill maximum fear. If we know this, then that's already half the battle. This means that we have to respond with focus on those most vulnerable & targets. It means we have to refuse their attempt to scare us.

CNN reports that the January 6 criminals have been told they are invited to attend inaugural balls tonight. They are going to be released from the D.C. jail momentarily. All are insurrectionists. We are not a democracy anymore, folks. We do not have rule of law.

As @premthakker.bsky.social just said to me on Slack, this Trump second speech, unscripted, to the overflow hall of supporters, ranting about Pelosi, Milley, and Cheney is the REAL speech. It's the REAL him. A petty, paranoid, insecure man, obsessed with grievances and his 'enemies.'

I feel like the year behind and the year ahead can be summed up with one Doctor Who quote: "What I did, I did without choice in the name of peace and sanity." May there be as few casualties as possible in your quest for peace and sanity in 2025.

The incoming Trump administration is not sending their best. They’re sending people with big problems, and they’re bringing those problems to us. They’re rapists. They’re alcoholics. They’re criminals. And some, I assume, are good people 🤷🏽‍♀️

This is a reminder that I need to perform as much due diligence and block crypto bros/gals and lottery winners.

It's been a very disheartening day. He's getting away with almost everything. Merrick Garland really screwed the pooch. It's hard to fight on after all of this.
