Naah, I want them on trial.

Oh my god, 100% this, every day without end.

If you campaigned for the presidency on a promise to destroy these assholes, you would win a landslide the size of FDR in 1936, when he campaigned on a promise to destroy these assholes.

A reminder that the New England Patriots plane is flown by Omni air who contracts with ICE to fly people in chains to Africa and Asia several times per week.

Go Seahawks.

This is no longer politics.
This is literally right vs wrong and good vs evil.

There is no gray.
If you support Trump now there is a special place in hell for you and anyone else who does.

Tear it all the fuck down and restart.

Stay. Angry.

Literally half the country wants to abolish ICE and the Democrats are going to make them pinky swear not to deport U.S. citizens anymore

So important. What they say is not the story. That is never the story. What happened is the story. Write what happened.

in the pit

This entire weekend

Caving on a deal that doesn’t fix health care is, and always has been, a giant betrayal of the American people.

Hold the line. Save health care. I’m a NO on anything that doesn’t extend ACA subsidies.

The lesson here is have good principles and stand on them. Stand for something that isn't power!

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Don't apologise for your dog showing up during the Zoom, apologise for hiding him all this time

Disney: produces Andor, a show about the hard-fought resistance to a dictatorial, authoritarian regime.

Also Disney: cancels a comedian/late show hosts’ show because it’s what an authoritarian dictator has wanted for years.

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

Remember if you are angry and you wanna do something, one really important thing you can do is vote, I’m not talking about 2026. I’m talking about this week, next week, and the week after there are elections every single week multiple times a week that is where it change begins.

During my first taxi ride into Warsaw from the airport I said something about the parks looking green and pretty, and the driver just grumpily said "too much park!"

Fully on board with dems running for office promising to reinstate fired federal employees and jail this administration’s various criminals, but let’s go ahead and add “we will seize by eminent domain any national parkland sold to developers”

This is infuriatingly stupid and a devastating loss to health research across the globe. Our tax dollars paid for that, and they just broke it for no fucking reason

I dunno, I was awake during hand surgery this week and it was better than *gestures at world*

but more than anything else, lesbians want THESE FUCKING CREEPS TO STOP CONSTANTLY WATCHING US ALL IN PUBLIC AND TRYING TO GUESS BASED PURELY ON VIBES WHETHER OR NOT GOD GAVE US A VAGINA IN ORDER TO DECIDE WHAT ROOMS WE’RE ALLOWED INTO

Every state should do this, this is fantastic!!

This speaks volumes:

Yale professors, Timothy Snyder, a historian of totalitarianism and the author of "On Tyranny," and Jason Stanley, a philosopher and the author of "How Fascism Works", move to Canada.

The latest crazy just proves what we all know. They are discussing everything on Signal to avoid any discovery or FOIA or archival laws. So illegal but here we are.

Scorpion and frog "the scorpion won't sting me if i grovel and beg enough"

a judge ordered planes to turn around. the white House didn't listen.

The White House did not *obey.* That is the more relevant verb, given that this is about flouting a court order, separation of powers, and the Constitutional crisis we are in. This kind of word choice is critical.

These are the senators who collaborated with the GOP.

Schumer
Fetterman
Cortez Masto
Durbin
King
Shaheen
Gillibrand
Schatz
Hassan
Peters

Don’t let them forget it. No peace for them.

I got the Covid vaccine at 19 + 21 weeks of pregnancy, and 20 more weeks later my baby was born healthy with Covid antibodies. I know that because a scientist tested her blood. Vaccines work.

There’s no reason to have a Democratic Party if it won’t go to the mat to save the Department of Education. It’s a fundamental belief that children in America deserve better futures. It’s tremendously simple. You cannot continue funding a government that would close this.

Columbia University sold out to fascists and brutally cracked down on kids whose only sin was opposing genocide.

The fascists threw the University under the bus anyway.

I feel like there's a lesson in there about complying with fascism.

This is about making an example out of Columbia to scare the rest of academia. There's nothing Columbia could have done to stop this. It's an ideological war to destroy universities.
