"Tyranny requires your fear and your silence and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage." -- @govpritzker.illinois.gov

Someone at the American Bar Association ate their Wheaties this morning.

Nearly $7 million has been “apportioned” over the past week to cover DOGE-related expenses.

Normalize pronouncing DOGE as DOUCHE.

The Papua New Guinea Courier is in rare form.

This !!

Dude. I'm Pissed. youtube.com/shorts/zBYoY...

Think about this.. for a second. Doesn't take you much time to get it! Them? Eons.😉

Trump II has begun. Many people are asking: “What can I do now?” Here are 10 recommendations. Please let me know your thoughts, and if you have anything else you'd like to add to the list.

I’m telling everyone: Do not open the door or say a word unless you’re expecting someone and know exactly who it is. Know your rights. Pass these around…

It is important to gray rock those who seek to gaslight us. We saw what we saw. We know what we saw. It was what it was. And Musk thinks it's funny. www.reddit.com/r/gifs/comme...

Looking for a starter pack for active government figures? Here it is!

it’s so insane to me that people work for ICE like did you watch star wars and think man i want to be like the guys in the plastic white suits who can’t aim for shit

WE NEED MORE DEMOCRATS LIKE THIS!!! ASAP!!! youtube.com/shorts/CUr7g...

Well done!

ACLU has a Rapid Response Network in Central and Southern CA to report ICE activity. Please save these numbers to your phone if you live in these areas and want to help fight FOTUS’s illegal deportation actions #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy 📌 www.aclusocal.org/en/socal-rap...

WAY TO GO COSTCO!

I remember the old days when Fox said it was Biden’s fault.

🤣🤣🤣

“'Businesses will miss the best talent unless they go out of their way to develop strategies' for cultivating leaders who have faced discrimination—especially those based on America’s 'tortured history around race.'" Former CEOs of American Express and Merck on #DEI www.cnn.com/2024/10/15/b....

Their faith lets them worship power while they’re offended by mercy. It’s not Christianity they’re practicing.

Every Democrat Must Do What Sen. Tammy Duckworth Just Did This is how it’s done:

Pass it on please.

Did your child lose their book collection in the Los Angeles fires? Are you a teacher at a school that lost its library or your classroom library? Whether you need one book or a whole library, we can replace your books. 📚 Everyone else, please boost this post so we can connect with those in need. 🙏

So all those GOP fuckers who are going around criticizing and lying about the CA wildfires voted AGAINST providing funds for wildfire prevention, including $75,000,000 for the "construction or maintenance of shaded fuel breaks in the Pacific Regions." They have NO shame. #USDemocracy

Fucking HILARIOUS that these hypocritical Christian Senators have so much forgiveness in their souls for Pete Hegseth abusing women and cheating on his wives but they couldn't find any grace for private citizen Hunter Biden, who isn't running for anything. Give me a fucking break.

🔥 America has ~1 million firefighters. 🚨 65% of them volunteer their time. If we spent just 1/10 of the U.S. defense budget, we could: ⚡️ Create a mega fire brigade. 👩‍🚒 Hire 895,000 NEW full-time firefighters. 💰 Pay them $100,000 a year. Instead of invading Greenland we could protect Americans. 🔥

This billboard says it all.

The Hegseth hearing is doing one thing incredibly well: it’s establishing that when his leadership at DoD fails, it’ll be clear that GOP Senators knew, excused it, and they own it. Serious concerns about experience & judgment are literally being laughed off.

Just putting this here....
