The gunman was just trying to fulfill the requirement of making an attack on a government building to be able to apply for some of the $1.776B slush fund.

Trump uses today’s shooting incident outside the White House to once again demand his ballroom

A good reminder that we don’t raise our kids to be pedophiles, rapists, bigots, greedy pathological liars, or fucking morons. We also typically get them to stop shitting themselves at some point.

“The right people voting” Fuck this evil dog murdering, family destroying, lying, cheating, fascist scourge on humanity. Voter fraud in modern times is almost entirely nonexistent. Fuck this continuing false narrative. It’s too bad her father didn’t pull out and save us all of this trouble.

Kristi Noem: "When it gets to Election Day, we've been proactive to make sure we have the right people voting, electing the right leaders to lead this country."

The fuck if we are. Not until it’s all out in daylight and every evil bastard that hurt, raped, and from the sounds of it murdered children (and those that covered it up for them) is walked to a guillotine or gallows. And that’s of they’re lucky. This HAS TO BE what makes it all come crashing down.

I’m old enough to remember when Republicans would preach endlessly about wanting small government and protecting states’ rights. And now we’re here at supporting sweeping federal control and full authoritarian rule, and they couldn’t be more thrilled. We live in the absolute dumbest timeline.

Watched Nuremberg tonight. They say history doesn’t repeat, but it rhymes, and the US today sure as hell rhymes a lot with Nazi Germany. Quote from the film that’s stuck to me like glue: “Do you know why it happened here? Because people let it happen. They didn’t stand up until it was too late.”

I deal with these people at work. It’s wild how absolutely fast they completely 180’d their views to suit the pedo in the oval. It’s almost like they never actually cared about freedom at all, and only cared about taking it away from others. Fucking cowards and traitors, all of em.

Every Sunday from September though January, tens of millions of Americans of every political persuasion sit down in front of their TVs under a universal agreement that if there's one camera angle that shows separation, there was separation

We have a name now, the right name. This man, his boss, his boss’ boss, and everyone else in the regime needs thrown in a hole to fucking rot. I hope none of them have one single moment’s peace for the rest of their lives.

The same people who spent yesterday, and the past five years, insisting a Black police officer who shot an insurrectionist breaking into the Capitol should be prosecuted are today bending over backwards to defend an ICE agent who shot a woman in her car in cold blood. Scum.

Trump never had a fan base. He had an army of bots who sold his racism and misogyny and xenophobia to uneducated Americans who took voting advice from bald eagle profiles posting Tweets from Eastern Europe. It’s as stupid as it sounds.

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

Fuck these dems in the senate for caving. Y’all do ONE THING RIGHT in playing the hand you have to work towards saving literal fucking lives, and you see the push of a mighty blue wave last Tuesday, and then Chuckles & Co throws it all away. AOC needs to primary that useless old man into oblivion.

Yes, the shutdown sucks. Yes, people are pissed and people are struggling. But you let red states like mine feel the pinch and make republicans blink first. The long term cost of agreeing to a future vote from a bunch of lying fucking Nazis is NOT how you negotiate. They made it be for nothing.

I can’t believe they called prop 50 the moment polls closed. That tells you something. Most of these races were called within 45 minutes. It’s a BLOWOUT, y’all. THAT is what we call a MANDATE.

Q: What's your reaction to yesterday's purge of senior ICE officials? When is it time for Congress to do some oversight? MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know any of the details of that yet. I just heard about that, literally I was walking in.

Do you understand what this means? Do you? They're planning a violent takeover of US citizens in plain sight Telling us what they are planning to do WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO TO STOP THEM? Where's the "Don't tread on me" crowd now?

A year ago, before we knew we’d have to defend democracy on the daily from a fascist regime and organize the largest protests in American history, some friends of mine set today as their wedding day. I can’t be in the streets today, but I’ll be with y’all in spirit. #NoKings
