How did I not know how hateful she is?

The people were offered the choice of human rights and dignity, or being stupid for cheaper eggs.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

Remember when America had friends? Like a month ago?

Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed. Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio. He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.

A story in two parts! Trump denouncing Ukraine & Zelensky, now. Here's the transcript of Trump congratulating President Zelensky on his election victories... and then attempting to extort him. If you want to understand the rationale behind the hate of Ukraine, its because Trump was caught criming.

Tom Homan can’t find enough illegal immigrants to deport because they fabricated the ‘crisis,’ so now he’s just gonna spend all his time attacking AOC.

The amount of secondhand embarrassment I have even just watching this is through the roof.

I'm feeling nostalgic for competence.

Could someone out there write a definitive guide on convenient alternatives to using Amazon.com for goods and books and whatnot? Asking for some folks who don’t want to see democracy die in darkness.

Have y'all watched the SNL gala show from last night. Go watch it on Peacock. It's so good. Bad Bunny and Eddie Vedder and Post Nirvana omg.

If you’ve ever taken the oath to uphold the Constitution, this is the time to live up to it.

Omg 💯

Anyone else kinda gone past anxiety into full nihilism?

Hey good people, Valentines day is so shit for lonely people. I spent so many years so depressed on this day. Be kind if you can.

I’d just like to shout out humans for at least seeing through NFTs as the most idiotic idea possible.

@rbhubbell.bsky.social says it’s time for the Dem MOC to implement a Shadow Cabinet. @timothysnyder.bsky.social has been sounding the alarm to do this. Robert’s suggestions who should be on it are in his article. We can add to it. @repjasmine.bsky.social comes to mind. Let’s do this! 202-224-3121.

Hold the fuck on a minute — Assistant President Poopy Pants spent $15 million taxpayer dollars to attend a single football game, but Phony Stark’s Division of DOGEbags can’t find the money to fund childhood cancer research? Are you fucking kidding me?!?

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

He is one sick puppy.

Over 100 ICE agents spent 5 hrs in Chicago last week, arresting only 2. In Denver & Aurora, CO, over 400 agents were dispatched for migrant violence linked to Tren de Aragua. After knocking on hundreds of doors, only 1 member was arrested. (NYP, ABC News)

The governments computer systems will have to be rebuilt. Moscow Musk provided ample opportunity and access to China/Russia/Terrorist Groups on all US government payroll/defense info - and every Americans banking information is now in foreign hands. It will cost more than the Iraq wars to fix it.

Yeah. Truth hurts.

Fair question.

The universe speaks in mysterious ways.

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive): 1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment* 2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything 3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can 4. Citizens march en mass

This. It's hair on fire time. Democratic leadership needs pull their head out of their ass.

😢

If the FBI gets purged of almost all of its agents, they will be replaced. The current vetting process for agents is onerous. But that can be changed, and there’s really nothing stopping a director from handing every Jan. 6 pardonee, or any other yahoo, a badge and a gun (and TS clearance)

How do we stay sane and not panic when every 5 minutes there is more horrible and traumatic news.

Anyone else feeling overwhelmed by everything? Because same.
