In 1971, Daniel Ellsberg leaked The Pentagon Papers exposing the lies told to the public about the disastrous Viet Nam war, forever becoming a hero in history. Now... someone PLEASE leak #TheEPSTEINFiles & end the biggest coverup scandal of all-time! 🙏
Unless you are at least a multimillionaire, the Republican Party has done nothing in the last 40 years that was designed to benefit you…
Absolutely nothing.
So…
Quit fucking voting for them!
Any Questions ?! 😎✨

Favreau: He’s a moron. He’s gotten us into a disastrous war. He made everything more expensive. He has bumbled his way through his second term by using the government to make himself rich and punish everyone who doesn’t like him. And also, on Trump “losing a step”—Donald Trump never had a step.
This is so true. Trump and his cadre of advisors and Cabinet members are imbeciles who put thin-skinned Trump’s feelings over the health of 330 million Americans. Fuck then all!
Just an appreciation post for this guy. The COVID pandemic would have been far worse without Dr. Fauci's decades of experience as guidance through it. Had he been working under an adult president and not the child that presided over 2020, he would have saved even more lives without having to contend
If you’re watching Fauci’s testimony remember that science isn’t an ideology. It doesn’t lie. It evolves. COVID-19 was a once-in-a-century pandemic caused by a brand-new virus, recommendations changed because the evidence changed. That’s not deception. That’s how it works.
Scott Pelley gave an impassioned speech a year ago that’s worth watching today.
Kudos to him and other 60 Minutes correspondents and staff for defending the media and our democracy.
If the GOP had an actual agenda, and one worth following, their leader wouldn't be a felon bent on criminal profiteering and revenge. They also wouldn't be trying to prevent people from voting.
🔥 SPRINGSTEEN: "I’m here to support Stephen Colbert, the first guy who lost his show because a president can't take a joke - and the Ellisons feel they need to kiss his ass… small-minded people with no idea what freedoms of this beautiful country are supposed to be about." 🇺🇸
Why are the Mets swinging at EVERY first pitch? Take one for a change. Poor McLean has nothing to show for yet another strong start. He definitely is experiencing what DeGrom did.
Codifying Roe, passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, and holding members of this administration criminally accountable are important goals, but none of it sticks without Supreme Court reform.
Am I understanding this correctly? The President, the Vice-President, the Speaker of the House AND the Secretary of Stare were all at the White House Correspondent's Dinner together and security was so laxed that a guy ran through security with a long gun? I call bullshit.
Tuesday was a scary moment of clarity for U.S. and the world. Trump war crimes and his rapid mental decline challenge us to remove him from office immediately, to save our democracy, possibly the human race

The SAVE America Act is a voter suppression scam. It would take away the rights of working people to make their voices heard at the ballot box.
The Senate must reject this bill.
I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is
YES!!! This is why we are where we’re at today. Should also have locked up the 140 ELECTION DENIERS IN CONGRESS, including my Rep from PA-15 (Glenn “Jerkoff” Thompson).
Trump’s propaganda czar Brendan Carr and Trump-controlled CBS refused to let Colbert air his interview with James Talarico. You can watch the interview here, and it already has 1.4M views. youtu.be/oiTJ7Pz_59A?...
BERNIE SANDERS: Do vaccines cause autism?
BHATTACHARYA: I do not believe that the measles vaccine causes autism
SANDERS: Nah. Uh uh. I didn't ask measles. Do vaccines cause autism?
BHATTACHARYA: I have not seen a study that suggests any single vaccine causes autism
The congressional switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. Put it in your cell phone. Use it. If you're not calling at least once a week, you're not doing your part.
