Here for the resistance, but maybe also some fun parenting stuff to make me smile as well??

Attn: USPS changes mean your ballot may not be postmarked the same day you mail it. Don’t wait until Election Day! Deadlines vary by state. Some require ballots to ARRIVE by Election Day, not just be postmarked.

Holy shit. Every single Democrat: This is the message. This right here. This is the whole ass pitch the voters in the weeks before the election.

Settle a debate. If you order a sushi appetizer and it's too much to eat, is it weird to offer it to the strangers sharing a table with you at Benihana?

Cool, cool, I have a couple quick questions -- who's in charge of preventing food-induced illnesses right now and how good a job are they doing?

If you're not motivated already, maybe this 👇will do it for you. I'm stilled pissed off at the people who didn't vote in 2024 or voted 3rd party, so excuse me for being bitchy (not).

Dolly Parton spent 80 years proving you could have big hair, a bigger heart, a brilliant mind and absolutely no patience for anyone who underestimated you. She gave us unforgettable songs, free books for millions of children, and enough wit, rhinestones and kindness to light up Tennessee.

One of the first times in recent memory I agreed with the NYTimes's assessment of what qualifies as breaking news. Devastating! Dolly was such a joyful spirit and her light will be missed.

Local man suggests jailing own boss.

to hear Trump tell it, American elections were completely corrupted while he was president and he was helpless to stop it, then they were cleaned up by Biden ahead of Trump's victory in 2024, and now that Trump is president again they are once again becoming third world caliber

The only election interference happening in this country is coming straight from the White House, and no amount of pathetic late night rambling from a failing, fading president will change anyone’s mind

Listen, I hate Google as much as the next person, but not adding steps when you manually add activity in the horrific Google Health app that "replaced" the Fitbit app may be the final straw. Anyone at Google seeing this? Maybe the AI overlord is taking notice? Please correct ASAP

I'm a Democrat. I support human rights. I support Israel's right to exist as a Jewish homeland. I oppose most Israeli gov'ts actions in Gaza after their initial response to 10/7. I support a Palestinian state next to Israel @ 1967 borders. None of this is $ related. All of these are true at once.

I have thoroughly enjoyed the World Cup. I have loved cheering for the US team. Then that fucker intervened. Yes, the red card was excessive, but I would rather lose because of it than win because Imbecile called FIFA. The joy is gone. Now we’re the bad guys. He destroys everything.

Wearing my red, white, and blue for the 4th. Happy birthday, America! May you soon live up to your founding ideals again. #4thofJuly #NoKings

What has carried our nation forward is not the absence of challenges, but the willingness of ordinary people to meet them with hope, courage, and action. As we celebrate America’s 250th, we must continue to fight for one another, our democracy, and the promise of what we can build together.

Trans athletes in sports and voter fraud fall into the same stupid category: Both happen rarely, have little effect on most people's lives, and take up a huge amount of wasted discussion that should be focused on affordable groceries, housing, and healthcare.

What a day to be alive! Cabo Verde has the game of their lives AND TSwift ties the knot

Amidst all the vacuous chatter about Democratic Socialists being "communists" because they seek universal healthcare, the man with the real communist agenda is Donald Trump—who is securing state-control of major businesses—as he simultaneously turns the state into a vehicle for private enrichment.

There’s a special kind of irony in watching the “shall not be infringed” crowd twist themselves into knots insisting birthright citizenship shouldn’t exist. It’s amazing how flexible “absolute” rights become when they’re someone else’s.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani has balanced New York City's budget. Governor Gavin Newsom has balanced California's budget. Donald Trump has increased the national debt by over 40%. Republicans make vague promises about fiscal responsibility, but Democrats get shit done.

next time you hear someone “throws like a girl” this is what you should assume they mean

Maybe Vance doesn't know this part of history because it's in one of the books his administration has banned. The difference between the Watergate era and now is that back then, Republicans actually did something about a law-breaking president. Today, they only roll over for their cult leader.

/2 Federal perjury investigations for testimony in civil cases are incredibly rare. Nearly unheard of. And I have absolutely never heard of one launched against the prevailing party in a case. Wanton and open corruption.

😂 and 🥰

Those of us in the pro-democracy movement can and should hold both of these positions. 1. We unequivocally reject violence. 2. We will unequivocally oppose efforts by this administration to use last night as an excuse to try to suppress criticism and criminalize dissent.

He's the worst thing that ever happened to America. I despise him BECAUSE I love my country. 🇺🇸

Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.

😂😂😂

Imagine if instead of spending billions of dollars supporting terrorists or weapons, the United States had spent that money helping the people of the United States

I'd really like to see leadership calling for impeachment and removal, regardless of whether they have the votes to get it done. Same way we called for marriage equality before we had the votes. A leader's job is to lead. If a genocidal threat isn't impeachable, then nothing is.

What a f*cking waste of lives and money. 😠

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

I'm not sure about you, but I think the collapse of US hegemony, a global price spike and recession, and a new ground war in the Middle East are far worse than drag queens reading books at the library.

Democrats, This should be the centerpiece of every election campaign. We can't have nice things because this idiot started a war, enacted tariffs and cut taxes for his billionaire buddies (the Epstein Class). That's it. The whole campaign.

Eventually, there will be a day when no one mentions donald anymore in the news cycle. Can we please hurry that day along?

Now get out and vote in the midterms like your life depends on it, because it does. #NoKings

To say Trump is the most corrupt President does not in any way capture the epic nature of his corruption. Trump’s corruption absolutely dwarfs all the corrupt actions of all the other Presidents combined. There’s truly not a meaningful measure of comparison.

Happy #NoKings Day! My kids and I are ready to exercise our right to protest!

While the President sends more American troops to the Middle East, the price of everything - groceries, gas, mortgages - keeps rising. Let’s be clear: we are worse off today, and no safer, than before this unnecessary war began.

It’s absolutely wild that people *still* think they’re trying to run a government at all, let alone serve the people.

Elizabeth Banks

I know it’s fun to make fun of Trump, but we really don’t *want* him to bomb power plants and critical infrastructure, so maybe let’s give him a pass on this TACO

If opening the Strait of Hormuz is a “simple maneuver” that is “so easy to do” why haven’t we just opened it? He’s flailing. He has no idea how to extricate the US from this war. Anyway, calling NATO a paper tiger and begging for their help in the same tweet is wild.

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

In the last 14 months of Biden's term, 1,740,000 total jobs were created. In the first 14 months of Trump's current term, 150,000 jobs were created. That's a ratio of 11.6 to 1 ... The idea that "Republicans do better on the economy" is and has always been BS.

It's about time. But Trump's violent, cruel deportation agenda didn't begin with Kristi Noem & it won't end with her firing. We need to abolish ICE, dismantle DHS, & prosecute everyone responsible for violating our rights, bypassing due process, & killing people in our streets.
