I don't ever want to hear that it's wrong to call them Nazis again.

β€œThe point is not for women to simply take power out of men’s hands, since that wouldn’t change anything about the world. It’s a question precisely of destroying that notion of power.” - Simone de Beauvoir

We started with restrain ICE. Then reform ICE, then landed squarely on abolish ICE.

But I’ve moved on to prosecute ICE y’all. Every last one even if it takes 20 years of trials.

Pete Hegseth's murderous buffoonery, coming amid a lifetime in which he's betrayed everyone close to him and failed up from one disaster to the next, is a perfect example of how the appeal of Trumpism is that it creates a permission structure for people to openly be their worst selves

One thing I feel ought to be discussed more is the fact that basically all rural and suburban places in the US are subsidized by cities. They resent cities. They insult cities. They elect politicians who abuse cities. But none of them could survive without cities.

If you’ve had enough of Donald Trump consistently siding with our enemies, then vote EVERY Republican out in 2026.

If you wanted to start a civil war in the US, what better way than:
- brutalizing populace w/a paramilitary police force
- start a foreign war
- crashing the economy
- interfering/stealing an election

His actions are indistinguishable from what a foreign adversary would to to destroy our country.

Jesse Jackson was an early political ally for the LGBTQ. He did a lot of AIDS activism. He was the first major U.S. presidential candidate to include LGBTQ+ rights in his platform (candidate for 1984, 1988 primaries), anti-discrimination laws, and openly gay service members.

Can’t wait for the Benghazi 2.0 hearings to happen over abandoning US Officials and Diplomats across the Middle East because a child rapist and money launderer is being blackmailed to start a war on behalf of Benjamin Netanyahu.

The fact that Kristi Noem's relentless plastic surgery couldn't save her job, even in the MAGAverse, signals that feminism has achieved its goals.

"You can only be decent because we are horrible" is a very, very popular line of thinking among horrible people.

On NJ Transit on the way home and the train just died.

Just another day/reminder of how β€œthe richest and most powerful nation in the world” cannot do mass transit.

We can afford a war and build concentration camps, but not mass transit.

The video of a United States Senator joining the violent removal of U.S. marine from a hearing and hideously breaking his arm in a door is an example of what has been unleashed in this country. They’re tapping in to get in on the violence.
And then he bragged about it on X later.
