This is great! Rogers knows squat about hockey, a big sport in Michigan. El-Sayed knows hockey, a big Red Wing fan, taken to games by his dad, ripping their billionaire owner for not paying their young stars. Boom!

Again, please share. In every aspect of American history you will run smack dab into the critical contributions of Black people. It’s not Black history. It’s American history. Trying to erase it is a fool’s errand. We live it every day. time.com/5836444/blac...

Speaker Ken Doll says the non-war is over and the opening of the Strait won't be a war either, so he and his fellow eunuchs won't be bothering President Daddy while he's busy working.

Mike Johnson: "The president has declared Operation Epic Fury to have concluded, and now we're working on the next project, which is getting the Strait of Hormuz open. We don't expect that to be a warfare activity, so to speak. I don't think Congress needs to get in the way of the administration."

These folks have exactly one strategy: Tack right on basic rights. It hasn’t worked. It’s allowed the GOP to continue moving right and go full on cuckoo bananas. But they don’t want to try anything else. It is beyond their comprehension that anyone would vote for a lefty who stands firm.

“Why wouldn’t you welcome this in your city?” Hard to say, but I guess because I’m not a piece of shit?

One day after the Supreme Court lifted the ban on racial profiling, federal agents swarmed a car in Van Nuys. Four masked agents with guns drawn yanked people out, slammed them to the ground, and pointed a weapon at a pregnant woman. There is no justification for this. None.

"People tend to fetishize big... acts of “Resistance" w/o remembering that small individual acts of noncompliance are also tools that can frustrate great & evil powers. We can save a life, [ease] the suffering of a person, or can change a mind. Right now, that has to be enough of a reason to try."

there are other ways to oppose, engage, and fight back.

Most striking thing about this clip is not Trump floating the idea of being a dictator (again) and claiming some want that. The most striking thing is his sneering dismissal of the counter argument "freedom." Only modern US president to explicitly oppose freedom. Should be the basis of opposition.

Trump: "A lot of people are saying maybe we'd like a dictator."
