The essence of the Big Lie

They’re corrupt lawbreakers, every last one.

Whoa he said it out loud and didn't means test the fallout beforehand

Really smart and useful work from Aymann Ismail here: slate.com/news-and-pol...

Opinion: While condemning violence is something most can get behind, the sanitization of Charlie Kirk's hate has gone too far, argues Erin Reed.

Not a drag queen.

There's something about still being surprised by each day's new depths of depravity that somehow feels hopeful.

Hayes: Every provision in this program is cruel and they know it. That's why none of them spoke on it in committee. That's why they have no response. That's why they don't hold town halls. That's why they don't answer questions. All they do is tweet, repeat, and hide in the back until they vote yes

Excellent news!

Dems declaring they want to fund a Joe Rogan of the left is frustrating because it's in the ballpark of the right idea but wrong in ways that make it untenable. The Joe Rogan of the left is Chappelle Roan, but they can only picture a dudebro who likes Democrats.

The Secretary of Homeland Security can’t answer a basic legal question.

I took this pic of then Vice President Joe Biden in the Oval Office back in September 2015. I’ll never forget how, during the 2020 campaign, he would make a point of saying the press is NOT the enemy of the people. Thinking of President Biden as he takes on this next battle. Godspeed Mr. President.

Helping the U.S. gets you banned, being white gets you a welcome mat. Got it.

Your Mother’s Day weekend reminder that the so-called “party of family values” has historically blocked: -Paid family & medical leave -Universal childcare -Universal pre-K -Expanded Child Tax Credit -Programs to support reproductive health Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

Happy Caturday Ebrybody!

Donald Trump is no longer the most powerful American in the world... #LeoXIV

Boom.

You’ll pay more for your Xbox because of Trump.

Anyway, do what you want. If I’ve learned anything about men and boys in this lifetime is that y’all are just gonna do what you want. But I pray for you to get free with the rest of us. Liberation is work, sure. But it’s joyful work. And we all deserve the BLESSING transformation makes possible.

Donald Trump has no idea what a gallon of gas costs.

AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care? There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.

Socialism is what they called public power.  Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Pritzker: The reckoning is here. And now that this culture of timidity is on display, these same do-nothing Democrats want to blame our losses on the defense of Black people, trans kids, and immigrants, instead of on their own lack of guts and gumption.

McBride: If we summon our hope then we will find the light and turn this moment into what a friend from Florida once called a slingshot moment.. where we are pulled backwards but the tension and pressure of being pulled backwards ultimately propels us to destinations that we have not yet been

As Trump shuts down the suicide hotline, Canada has broadcasted their national hotline which now has a toll-free American version: 1-877-330-6366

People who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork and just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay the longer hours the reduced benefits the end of overtime and the vanishing pension" ~George Carlin

You know whats #patriotic? Loving others….

Today we honor the flippered citizens of our icy nation. Whether you celebrate whilst eating a democracy sausage in Oz, doomscrolling in America, pulling maple taps in Canada, or elsewhere, we appreciate the support! #worldpenguinday

Jan Schakowsky, the incumbent in my race, will reportedly not seek re-election. So it seems like a good time to reintroduce myself — I’m Kat Abughazaleh and I’m running for Congress.

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992. Was there a breast cancer epidemic?! NO. Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976. PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something. This is also about autism.

Sunshine!

Just looked up in bed and saw this. Apparently I’m late for breakfast.

Happy Easter Missy!!

9 signs you might be autistic #AutismAwarenessMonth

I can guarantee you that every person with autism, regardless of if they can support themselves or hold a job or whatever, has made more of a positive impact on our society than RFK Jr. and his worm ridden brain. Just by existing and being a person in the world that loves and is loved.
