My latest: MSNBC just went full Jim Crow and the Resistance is DONE with them

Congresswoman Crockett is right: Americans are tired of us bringing a butter knife to a real fight. It's time to take on MAGA extremism head on.

Sarah McBride: "It is an attempt to distract ... Every single time we hear them say the word 'trans,' look what they're doing with their right hand. Look at what they're doing to pick the pocket of American workers, to fleece seniors by privatizing Social Security and Medicare."

Republicans want to tell you what books you can read, what bathroom you can use, what words you can say, what history you can learn, what you can or can’t do with your own body and what gender you are… but tell me more about how the Dems are “coming for your freedoms”. Idiots.

Stop calling it a grift and use the real terminology, it’s corruption, embezzlement, money laundering, racketeering, take your pick.

Vaccines are imperative for our survival

Trump isn't even in office yet & we're already talking about letting him bypass the Constitution as though that's a normal conversation to be having.

I will never understand how a billionaire, the richest man on Earth, spent millions to buy an election for ANOTHER billionaire, and told us that his policies would cause all of us non-billionaires “temporary hardship...” ...and the public didn't tell BOTH OF THEM to fuck off.

I was getting very frustrated by the male-dominated punditry about the election, and very little space being given to women, and the rage that so many of us feel right now. So I wrote something: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Irish newspaper headline from last week sums things up in the most perfect Irish way...

Me *laying in my coffin, dead* My husband: yeah so what’s the plan for dinner?

Russia did exactly this to HRC in 2016, aiming to suppress her vote, and probably did. Musk no doubt did suppress Harris voting as well with these demotivation techniques. This should be illegal. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

NEW: The great Trump-Musk crackdown is coming. And it will hit hard & fast. Journalists will be first. But everyone else is next. I urge you to read my 20 lessons in How to Survive the Broligarchy, inspired by & featuring the great @timothysnyder.bsky.social 1/ www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"While pundits have busied themselves over the past 10 days nitpicking Kamala Harris’s campaign, one thing is abundantly clear: She was held to the highest standards of leadership while Trump was held to no standard at all."

"Be the bigger person" sounds too much like "accept the disrespect" for me. Hard pass.

Dan Rather brings the fire🔥

Feels like I'm just posting to the void since I'm just getting started here, but why not. I write a weekly newsletter, and this week I write about how far away from reading and critical thinking we’ve come. It's lacking in our education, COVID learning loss, social media attention spans, all of it.

If it would've absolved Matt Gaetz, the House Ethics Committee report into him would have been released already. Just saying.

Crockett: These are people who have railed against diversity equity and inclusion, trying to say that diverse candidates are somehow unqualified, but the reality is that what they want to do is more of this, put people that are not qualified in

Written 54 years ago in response to a child’s letter about what makes a good citizen, and still right on the money.

America.

Someone please say this is an April Fools joke! How did so many people not understand the damage this man is going to do?

This is turning out to be an extremely bad season of the Apprentice with the safety of the entire world at risk 😢

If you have fewer than 1000 people following you, it's more important for you to repost this than anyone. My friends from the other place will eventually find me one way or the other. Let's make sure YOU find your friends and comrades and make sure you don't feel isolated and give up.
