Always remember this!

Gold card huh? How many people are gonna pay 5 mil. Now he's bragging possibly Russian oligarchs would be allowed. WTF....

Republicans are too chickenshit to hold town halls. Shocker. Here’s an idea: Democrats, hold town halls in Republican districts.

“What’s the point of fighting cybercrime if we’re just going to give access for government networks to people with cybercriminal gang affiliations?” www.wired.com/story/doge-c...

How true

The Papua New Guinea Courier is in rare form.

Democratic senators will hold the Senate floor all night long in opposition to the nomination of Russ Vought, an organizer of Project 2025, to head the OMB.

We know what it is, stop defending it.

No executive order has the power or the right to tell you who you are. F*ck that noise. Surround yourself with love, and when you’re ready, get back in this fight. We need you. 🫶🏽

Just a little reminder

There will be no kowtowing to Trump. Not now, not ever. Can we agree on this matter?

When your post begins "not defending Trump or Not defending Musk..." you are defending them and will be blocked!

That moment when #maga finds out their leaders and new tech bro friends actually meant that kicking out “illegals” would clear the way for low wage manual labor jobs, not high paying tech jobs, for the “native born” blue collar Americans who voted for Trump.

Trump used the MAGA faithful to get elected and now he sides with his wealthy friends like Elon Musk and Vivek. We warned the MAGA base Trump was a liar and conman who only cared about the people who can afford exclusive country clubs and private jets. Now no one can deny it.

If the MAGA base wants to join us in banning big $$ from politics and returning the power to the people that is their choice. We won't be compromising our values to get their support. We all see how dangerous it is for oligarchs to control our nation and our destinies. Time to end big $ in politics!

Here’s a truth bomb. There are NO primary schools in the United States teaching children CRT. There is however millions of parents in the United States teaching children that felonies and sexual assault are absolutely OK. #DemVoice1.

Isn’t it interesting that Trump’s DoJ told local Florida authorities not to investigate Gaetz because of the ongoing federal probe, then did nothing until the statute of limitations expired? Exactly what they tried to do in the Stormy Daniels case in NY. 🤔

Speaker Moses, President Musk, Assistant Moron.

Nobody elected Elon Musk.

It's no surprise that Pete Hegseth and the GOP don't believe women should be permitted to fight in combat. These same men don't believe women should have control of their own reproductive freedom. They view women as inherently inferior people who don't deserve equal rights.

What happened to this country?

"Repeat after me: there was no 'landslide'. There was no 'blowout'. There was no 'sweeping' mandate given to Trump by the electorate. The numbers don’t lie." My new Guardian op-ed on the new GOP election lie - and why it's important to rebut it! I brought (lots of) receipts:

This seems right, but it still leaves open the wisdom — vis-a-vis the likely harm Trump’s incoming administration will do to democracy’s survival and freedom’s future — of what President Biden did to protect his son while leaving so many others fully exposed to Trump’s retributive impulses.

@jenrubin.bsky.social makes a compelling case for the DNC to select @benwikler as chairman — not just for the sake of the Democratic Party but for the sake of democracy itself www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

NEVER FORGET!!

I think this would be an obligation to the American Citizens.

I would like every American who cares about democracy and the rule of law hear from the current president of the United States what he’s doing to lessen the avalanche of madness coming Jan 20. Like FBI background check for these reckless nominees, for example.

As much as MAGA wants to make it so, Hunter wasn’t pardoned for anything related to their fantasy that Joe got money from Ukraine. Comer held years of hearings on it and wouldn’t even hold a vote on it because he knew it would fail. Don’t let them rewrite the history of this too.

James Carville can get bent. He needs to go away already.
