Hey @amyklobuchar.com you need to call out your colleague Mike Lee for celebrating the assassination of Melissa Hortman. You need to make a big deal about this

Don’t normalize this @nytimes.com because it is NOT normal.

Two of the three states with the largest population of people in the U.S. illegally are the red states of Texas and Florida. Trump, notably, does not name their cities when calling on ICE to execute more aggressive immigration raids. He does, however, name LA, Chicago and New York.

A senator celebrating the murder of political opponents should be expelled. Not debated. Not excused. Expelled.

This is good. ⬇️

🧵I think it’s important to understand what disinformation like Sen. Mike Lee’s tweets are trying to do, psychologically/cognitively. In my disinfo class/Substack, I talk about how disinfo often uses “moral disengagement strategies” to manipulate people into accepting harmful conduct 1/

Today marks nine years since Jo Cox was assassinated by a far-right extremist, a terrible loss to those who knew and loved her and to politics. Zero lessons were learned though and the far-right continues to be pandered to. With more political assassinations in the US it all feels too familiar.

Thank you @19thnews.org

Despicable.

This is worth 3 minutes of your time. No one wants to eat at a restaurant that only serves bland chicken. (It’s not about chicken, or restaurants, tho)

Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character and goodness. - Anne Frank -

In serious countries that are actual democracies, strong mainstream parties force members who do stuff like this to resign, & far right authoritarian parties that do this are shunned from government. Here in 🇺🇸, one of our two parties has collapsed into far right authoritarianism. So neither happens.

Winner!! Hands down, the winner! 🏆

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

Walz: "This cannot be the norm. It cannot be the way that we deal with our political differences. Now is the time for us to recommit to the core values of this country ... Talk to a neighbor rather than arguing. Debate an issue. Shake hands. Find common ground. This is who Melissa Hortman was."

Can't lie, I thought they would use the weather as an excuse to cancel this dumb parade. People all over DC were whispering about how desperate they were to get people to go. Now, he looks like a joke. Can't be a strongman & cry into your birthday cake.

I was looking for a good overhead shot of the crowd in NYC. This would explain why we literally couldn’t move for ages! Good job neighbors!

I doubt anyone will see me post, but this needs to be known... if you have a visible following please repost 💙🔥💙 Admitting he wants "his people... aka US " to behave like north Korea for Kim Jong Un.🤬

This senator should be Censured or Removed from office. This is disgraceful

So it’s just going to be every cops everywhere now that uses excessive force upon people and violates their constitutional rights. This is Charleston, SC and they did this for all of 10 people just exercising their first amendment.

YESSSSSSS!!! Repost Please.

I like this guy.

I noticed this, too. If you marched shitty on purpose, or know someone who did, my signal contact is in my bio. I’d love to know more about this, and I’ll keep you anonymous.

Heading to the polls to leave Andrew Cuomo the fuck off my ballot

We, the people, have spoken!

#GVerse #Disturbing - Airman Christian Stephens posted a video saying he’s not proud to serve under #Shit4Brains and disapproves of ICE. Now it’s gone—replaced with a chilling message that he was forced into a psych hold, despite not being a threat. Please share. Repost!!!

Just your average commander-in-chief pop-up shop.

💯

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

And not a single one of us was paid to be there.

I love seeing the massive #NoKings turnouts in major cities, but what I love even more are the hundreds and hundreds of small, rural towns that had relatively bigger turnouts compared to their populations 💙🙏

Birthday party for democracy!

Hmmm 🤔

Is Trump just making up this bit about him stopping Israel from killing the Ayatollah? Israel denies it and just feels off.

Every so often I remember that Mike Lee is a direct descendant of early Mormon John D. Lee, who was convicted and executed for leading the Mountain Meadows Massacre, after he initially tried to blame the murders on Native Americans en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountai...

Imagine if Obama had done a FRACTION of what Turnip is doing... #NoKings

My daughter wants to know why a criminal was allowed to be president again, and why he wants to deport her babysitter’s parents. Anyone got any answers?

The US Army can march in unison. Synchronized. I don’t think they wanted to…

Imagine believing Friendless Urinal Cake swept all seven swing states when he can’t get anyone to come to his birthday party

At any time during the kerfuffle with @padilla.senate.gov, DHS secretary Kristi Noem could have called off the goons She didn't because she's a performative cosplaying thug who lives for theater and feared the questions coming from CA's senior senator Alex Padilla

❤️❤️

There's seriously no way he won 7 swing states...

😳 🇺🇸

I wrote this brief piece abt Brian Wilson on Substack; hope you'll read it: johnfugelsang.substack.com/p/brian-wils...

#ProudBlue Hordes of people stayed away from the DC parade, while millions spoke their minds in every state. A third of Americans are still clinging to his coattails, but the entire rest of the country is waving goodbye with everything they've got.
