So the thing I keep hearing about beating fascism is that you have to fight against discouragement and just keep going. In other words, be stubborn. Yes, stubbornness is now being REQUESTED of me, for once!

If you're horrified and sick by the state of everything, here is a shot of hope directly into your jugular vein. I'm not giving up. Scrape together every molecule of "stubborn" in your body and we will outlast them! adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

Turns out we “deranged” people simply saw the truth clearly.

I would follow this leader anywhere.

No one should be surprised. But it’s still appalling.

Oh my, what a shock.

GOP senators who support the orange guy are the latest in a long line of people who debased themselves for that moron in the naive hope that they would escape being screwed over and betrayed by him. When he screws over and betrays them, I hope they're at peace with how they've embarrassed themselves

Out of all the things that I want right now, from Democracy standing to Elon going to jail, the thing I most want is for Ukraine to win and Russia to give up. Truly. If I could choose just one thing to go the way of justice right now, it'd be that.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

I may not be flying again for a long while.

Richest man in the world muses about Jailing reporters, nothing to see here

taking black kids away from their parents and putting them on farms seems really familiar to me! what could it be?

I’m sorry. You can’t conduct “peace talks” with Russia over its invasion of Ukraine without Ukraine at the table.

The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing. It is the fact that congressional Republicans have given up their role in the constitutional system as a check on the executive branch. If we are in a constitutional crisis, it is as much on Mike Johnson and John Thune as anyone else.

Build the wall! Around DOGE!

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Here’s a better peace plan for Ukraine. “Russia, you’ve already sustained twice as many casualties as the US did in ww2. Leave Ukraine or suffer four times more, and collapse as a country in the process” Done

People on X are calling for AOC's arrest for posting this.... so I am posting it everywhere!

The DOGE website is reportedly hosted on non-government servers, not secured against database attacks and can be easily defaced, 404 reports www.404media.co/anyone-can-p...

In one of Elon’s outcries about fraud, he actually ended up cutting funding for cancer research. Despite initially denying it, he was later proven wrong. This incident highlights how little he actually understands about what he’s doing.

I always assume when I see a dinosaur fossil that the dinosaur was a male, and I wonder if there are a bunch of lady dinosaur ghosts that are really offended at me.

Place your bets. How long can I keep up the workday under this blankie before I accidentally doze off?

This adorable pygmy marmoset is completely fascinated by an insect... and I'm completely fascinated watching them 🖤 📽️ "Tiny World"

Everybody who hangs out with the orange one always thinks, "I will be the one. I will be the special unicorn that can actually keep his loyalty, hold his attention, keep his crazy in check, work with him, get something out of it, and not get burned." And every one of them is wrong.

Wait, according to their logic Gulf of America must adhere to its birth name.

This was just the best book! I may buy my own copy for my personal library. #books #dinosaurs

"Pseudo-sophisticated disingenuity" is THE best description of JD Vance I have ever heard, period full stop. Thanks @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social for coining it.
