Burdened With Glorious Purpose

Truth-tellers, not rioters. Protect these two men at all costs. “You feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history.” “John Lewis said make good trouble… that means make trouble on behalf of democracy.”

Tom Homan says he was taken out of context by a reporter when he threatened to arrest Gavin Newsom. "The NBC reporter that interviewed me is very dishonest. We did a 20 minute interview and he cuts out a little clip and takes my words out of context." Jonathan Lemire: "NBC stands by its reporting"

If I wanted to distract people from the fact that I was bankrupting the world’s largest economy I might call up the National Guard too

Meiselas: And then the right-wing influencers tried to pretend those were the Epstein files. Moskowitz: And then they looked at the list that was in the files, and they were like, “Shit, we know half these people.”

@lizcheney.bsky.social I think you need a tight 10 minute speech called “Fuck You, Donald Trump”, spending 5 minutes listing his very valid insecurities. Slap that bitch in the face, then travel to Europe on a Press Tour. Put whether you can return as The Story for 3-7 days. 1A FTW!

The ultimate question. On Jan 21, 2025, who gets to run the @POTUS account here and on twitter: Trump or Musk ?

Celebrate with me.

Something cool & positive: Part of my daily routine (most days) is that after the news/dinner, I: -Take a shower, -Get comfy clothes w/ the bed ready, & -Put on nature documentaries like from this channel: youtube.com/@freedocumen... People are stressful, animals just exist w/o judgement. ☮️😴💤 ✌️

@demolady7.bsky.social FYI: I am not some agent to collect info, I was about to say people should organize themselves according to their risks. Good luck with to you. Good luck to us all.
