So Trump wants to skeet from Iran so he can move on to Cuba and then Greenland. Stop comparing him to Hitler. His hair color and even his suits are different.

He is good at what he does, but look at what he does: He divides People, pitting them against each other, then steals from them while they fight. He gets others to do shitty things for him, then suffer themselves. Love your brothers and sisters. He's the problem, not them. Survive. Vote.

Maybe next time, for us, not so much with a criminal in the Whitehouse. We are so deeply into the crazy, and truth has been supplanted with bullshit and lies so thoroughly, that I don't see how we come through this, anymore. I hope we figure it out before someone turns us to ash.

I remember a line on my tax form ◻️ Would you like to contribute $1 to the presidential campaign? Now we have Citizens United and corporations and Elon Musk buying their way into the levers of power...and politicians begging me for money. Sorry, kids, we fucked this one up. Repeal Citizens United

I feel helpless and a little hopeless, this morning. I woke to learn that my government has bombed Caracas and kidnapped Venezuela’s leader. Which of us voted for this, even representatively? This is an act of war, and where is our Congress, in this? How far will we go before we regain democracy?

I read the whole transcript of the Jack Smith deposition. I kept reading because it was free of bullshit and grandstanding. Jack Smith reads like an upstanding g-man, devoted to service to his country. Even Jim Jordan seemed responsible. I'll have to watch the video. Maybe he was wearing his coat.

President Piggy is acting like the very dogs he disparages, running around the neighborhood lifting his leg on trees, as if to mark them his own. As a human, he is merely vandalizing them. By law, it is the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts Public Law: 88-260 signed President Johnson

Eyeliner on a vice president is just weird. I mean, I could accept it if he just did it. But all while he's disparaging gender affirmation on others is a foul, to put it charitably...and exactly which gender is he affirming, or do we need to consider gender-fuck?

I'm gonna publicly wrap my head around this: a provincial TV add out of Canada, which I would have never seen, annoys Trump and he makes national news out of it with a tantrum and it provokes me to find the ad, watch it, and then research Reagan's view on tariffs. #streisandeffect

Until the torches and the pitchforks unite, the king is going stand in the castle and feed them things to fight about. *He* is the threat. e pluribus unum Citizens United does not unite citizens.

Trump is the Eldritch Vapor of modern times (Beyond Zork). He steals our belongings and litters them about the kingdom, and when he has taken everything, he steals our very souls. He needs our support to continue. Do not be fooled. He stands for no one but himself. Do not buy his bullshit. #nokings

Diversity is our strength, no matter what racist, bigoted Republicans say. Real Americans embrace diversity, equity and inclusion. Real Americans reject Trump and his white nationalist cronies. Trump is bad, project 2025 is bad and the people who love America, the real patriots reject both.

Just a shout out to all the blow up creatures who faced off ICE lately. I get hope, strength, and a little mirth from you all. You rock. Live strong everybody. I love you.

No Mike, I don't "hate America," you asshole. Nor do the people you've buffaloed with your bullshit - they are my brethren, even as we disagree. You are the crass hater.

I remember as a boy this snippet of memory: my mother "Hitler had a tiny penis". I have no idea the context, just this indelible burn into my mind. I will never forget. I'm reminded of this memory as I chuckle at this cover - this tiny hand wielding little more than buttons, but of destruction.
