Sorry, but I have to say it. It's futile at this point to pretend any sane person has any shared interest with the MAGA crowd. It's hard, because they are our friends and family, but ...

In case you need a break from the awfulness, here's an embroidered jellyfish I finished last night--my latest project to avoid doomscrolling before bed.

Shame on you: Chuck Schumer, John Fetterman, Kirsten Gillibrand, Maggie Hassan, Gary Peters, Angus King, Catherine Cortez Masto, Jean Shaheen, Brian Schatz, & Dick Durbin

The terrible CR Budget bill — written by right-wing House Republicans with no input from anybody but themselves — was passed tonight with the support of 10 Democrats.   An absolute failure of Democratic leadership. NOBODY in the Senate should have voted for this dangerous bill.

Chuck Schumer is going out to meet swing voters where they live: in the upscale book stores of America's wealthy suburbs.

At this point it's pretty clear appeasement is not an option (it never was). MAGA wants to burn it down, now is the time to fight, not capitulate. This is OUR country, get angry and ACT!

🚨🚨 TRAITOR ALERTS We are at 8 1) Durbin 2) King 3) Schatz 4) Schumer 5) Cortez Masto 6) Fetterman 7) Peters 8) Hassan

Aid agencies distributing U.S. food aid in Ethiopia's war-affected Tigray region say they have had to stop feeding millions of people because of the Trump administration's restrictions on foreign aid.

The CR passed in the House will provide a blank check for Trump and Musk to continue their savage war against working families, the elderly, children, the sick and the poor in order to lay the groundwork for massive tax breaks for billionaires. This is a bill I cannot support.

First post ever, be kind. To everyone who hates what is going on, I feel for you. I am an American and I am ashamed of my government. This was once a country people aspired to emulate, but we are now ruled by cartoonishly inept billionaires. Real people are hurting, I apologize.

Schumer is complicit in this too.

A few words on journalism, risk and what I actually said.

As with Orwell, there's a reason people are constantly quoting and referencing this. www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/43290/...

This shit is so grim. These guys are grifting like they're stripping the copper wires out of a slowly collapsing building.

Paywalls are a giant part of this problem. As I've said many times, i have no solution. Journalists need to eat, and we're being decimated year over year. But, still.

A very special message to our Canadian brothers and sisters. As you move forward with this trade war and soon choose between Carney and Poilievre, look to us as a cautionary tale. Also, we're sorry. #canada #tariffs

This is really important data. Going moderate tanks Dem turnout. (But we knew that already.)

By the end of this week, I will be the mother of a teenager. I do not know how time has moved this fast. I am so grateful for this kid (and the other one), and so damn lucky. Single momming is not for the faint of heart AND I wouldn’t change the journey for anything.

serious question. in U.S. history, has there been a more brazen or more consequential violation of the Appointments Clause than Musk?

Nature is healing 🙏

U.S. President Donald Trump's arrival to Congress was disrupted after a Democratic lawmaker held up a small sign reading ‘This Is NOT Normal’ before having it ripped out of her hands by a Republican counterpart.

Tune in now!

I can't imagine the party Putin is having in Moscow right now. He doesn't have to lift a finger -- he invades a country, gets pushed back, and then sidles up to an American President short-sighted enough to do this bidding for him, right from our Oval Office.

“You are perfect the way God made you, unless God made you trans in which case we want you dead.”

Dude says we have to take care of our law enforcement FUCK YOU!!! YOU ASSHOLE YOU PARDONED OUR ATTACKERS

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

I’m not going to the Joint Address. I will be live posting and chatting with you all here instead. Then going on IG Live after.

inaccurate headline. absolutely no proof he welcomed this baby. chances that he's seen this baby longer than how many seconds i looked at the last eclipse are ~4%.

Yes, millions of people will suffer but at least it's for a good cause: because one old asshole wanted to avoid going to jail for crimes he committed

Was there ever a bigger Trumpian ass-kisser than Marco Rubio? Possibly only J.D. Vance, who is on record saying he might have to "hold his nose and vote for Hlilary."
