Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Has to be rough for Elon to know that his popularity is inversely correlated with his public exposure. People thought this guy was a genius before he started posting in earnest

*Slams dictionary shut til Monday*

This really highlights how the right's behavior has gone full circle and is now driving their own voters towards PROGRESSIVE POLITICS of all things. Love to see it.

"what if there was a minority that people didn't like because they were literally dangerous?" Okay but y'all realize I'm, like...just trans, right? I'm not a mutant, I don't have eye lasers. I just change-a the pronouns. Wear-a the dress. Why do metaphors for bigotry always come justified? Hmm...

I hate when fiction uses discrimination against supernatural creatures as a metaphor for real life hate. like yeah if there were vampires i'd fuckin discriminate against them becuase they drink blood. thats not the same as homophobia.

I feel as if this is related to the monomyth and the concept of the strong man. If the logic is that there are remarkable individuals and that everyone else is unimportant, then the boss is the only person who actually matters. His goons, then, are considered expendable, even by the writers. 1/2

Very tired of shows and movies where the hero kills and maims underlings en masse but hesitates or just DOES NOT when they get to the boss of bosses who has been the architect of evil and cruelty. If you kill the henchmen, you better do the same to their boss.

Looks like that committee needs to to be kicked out and replaced with actual humans with basic kindness and empathy. It's pretty obvious they are targeting transgender Kansans, but this will also affect the the elderly, disabled Americans and military veterans. They actively hate us. Make them leave

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill. Do not let anyone play games with you.

Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer. "Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

"Death before detransition" does not refer to my death.

JUST IN: Thousands of probationary federal employees fired by the Trump administration must be offered job reinstatement within the next week, a district judge in San Francisco has ruled, because they were terminated unlawfully.

Good.

"Meet Stitch." Shut the fuck up, trailer for live action adaptation of Lilo and Stitch. I have known this nigga for 20 years.

Wha...discriminatory DEI policies?? Motherfucker what do you think DEI is???

Then he's simply a child unable to contend with reality. That, or I could be getting paid to be trans and angry, which would be fucking shock to me

The only Democrat who took appropriate action, and the rest have left him out to dry. This is disgraceful.

@algreen.house.gov I was any to express my gratitude that you chose to stand up for the people. However they may seek to punish you, you have my support and thanks. I hope more Democrats can be like you.

MSNBC just called Rep. Al Green's censure "an embarrassing mark on his record." Maybe MSNBC thinks Rosa Parks' arrest was an embarrassing mark on hers.

Finally some good news

Fuck, I need this. I have POTS and it is very very Very sensitive to stress. Maybe it's time to unplug for a bit

Were it that more Democrats showed this sort of backbone

I'm just as disgusted by the people who do sieg heil salutes as I am by the people standing nearby who don't immediately punch them in the face. Stand the hell up.

We exist. We are real. We are here. We cannot be erased, and anyone who attempts to do so is only digging their own grave. Same goes for people who don't care or refuse to help, as well. If we go down, then eventually, they will come for you, too.

Another in a long line of small cruel acts. No amount of litigation can change us, but the meaning behind it cannot be ignored--they want to use us to appeal to their voters. They see weak, defenseless targets they can kick to gain favor. We need to start kicking them back. It's all they understand.

Ironic that they would create an act this needlessly cruel and then call for decorum. They only see the trans community as a punching bag that gets them extra voters with each hit, so let's speak the only language they understand and make their lives a living hell until they get the message.

Need to hammer this home, we (the trans community) have been swept under the rug. There are still those standing up for us, but many people are willing to turn a blind eye to us. We are considered the acceptable loss. We see that, and we'll remember that.

While I appreciate that democrats are finally getting a sliver of a spine, they are still quiet on big social issues. There is almost nothing said about the cruel and senseless deportation of US citizens and immigrants, and even less is said about trans rights. We are considered an acceptable loss.

this guy is such an arrogant little prick. he’s done nothing in his life but suck up to a progression of would-be daddies but he struts around like his shit doesn’t stink.

Corrupt leaders really hate protests. That's why they make threats and lie and call it illegal. They're hoping you don't know better so they can tell you damn near anything and get away with it. So this is a reminder--protest is not illegal or immoral. Protest fucks. Protest to your heart's content

It's a whole mix of reasons. Some of them are cowards, others are liberal in name only, and others don't really care because they aren't a minority and none of this will substantially affect them. Some are good (AOC and Bernie come to mind) but as a party they have about as backbone as a squid.

I've been proud of a lot of world leaders recently. It's just that none of them are disgraced criminal and failed game-show host Trump. I unironically would pay good money to watch him fall down a flight of stairs. Same for Vance and Musk, too.

"We just don't want the opposition to have a say in things. You know, like a democracy!"

Let's make the bastard destitute. I want him to suffer.

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

Helping those in need? Weak bullshit. Getting more art to keep government buildings worldwide looking fancy? Top priority. Nice spending there, chucklefuck.

I looked up a video and just. There is an almost joyous hatred on display, something I've been seeing more of nationwide, and I'm personally loving it. People everywhere are openly disdainful of Trump and Musk, and that's exactly how it should be.

I'm getting undertones of "First They Came" here. Trans folk like myself are the easy target--even the queer community is split on us--but we are only among the first targets. Slowly they will degrade the rights of all people until they have come for everyone.

We will never be a monarchy. Know that. To quote the LOTR trilogy: Gondor has no king. Gondor needs no king.

These fucking children. President Zelensky is being as patient as possible, and Trump and Vance are like a couple of kindergartners throwing a tantrum. There's no attempt at real discussion or answering questions, they merely raise their voices and cry until he has to give up. Utter embarrassments.

Focus-intensive tasks like driving suffer when cars lack that tactile feedback. Designing them with screens instead of good ol' fashioned knobs & buttons is just plain dumb. Plus, this means Tesla can't sell their products in Europe unless they fix their shit, and that's pretty fucking funny.

The man can't even play video games right. He's so terrible at his job, he got forced into buying a website he didn't want. He's so incompetent, he tried to design a truck and instead created a death trap with more weaknesses than a vampire. And he thought he could steer this ship? Pathetic.
