I am a political junky who is trying to get my mojo back after the loss to the orange idiot. I also enjoy gardening, music, art, and have 2 cats and a dog! I am part of the resistance and will be to the end. Let's end this orange idiocracy. FIGHT!

This morning, more than 1,000 New Yorkers came together for the first City-sponsored Remembrance Ruck, walking from Brooklyn to Manhattan to honor our veterans. It was an experience I will carry with me forever.

One of the biggest legacies of 9/11 was the rapid growth of mass surveillance. Whether it's the PATRIOT Act, Palantir, or Flock cameras, Americans don't want more erosions of our civil liberties in the name of "security."

We are projected to spend $268 BILLION on deportations — costing the average American taxpayer about $2,358 (according to @epi.org). But somehow we “can’t afford” to make sure hungry children can eat or ensure everyone, no matter their income, can access healthcare. Priorities.

The richest man owns X. The second and fourth richest men control Google. The third richest man owns The Washington Post. The sixth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the seventh richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

Can anyone honestly tell me they have watched this hearing and still believe this person is even remotely qualified to lead our country's intelligence agencies? Anyone?

The tech bros gave us crypto currency that isn’t currency, artificial intelligence that isn’t intelligence, and prediction markets that are inside-trader scams. On the other hand, they have given us gigantic data centers that employ no one and destroy communities. So there’s that.

The U.S. and Iran are contemplating a preliminary memorandum of understanding to potentially consider opening exploratory discussions about the possibility of future negotiations, pending clarification, interpretation, review, regional consultation, weather conditions, and vibes

Global oil reserves are being released at record pace, all to keep oil around $100 a barrel. This isn’t sustainable, and the administration has no plan to reopen the Strait.

You cannot have the FOTUS around children! For an adult to talk to children about those who died in war or about transgenders - it's totally inappropriate!! No way, as the mother of minor children, would I let those minor children any where near tRump!! NO F*CKING WAY

The FBI guy is on a paranoid bender and won’t leave his room. The War guy quotes bible passages from Pulp Fiction. The Health guy collects raccoon dicks. It’s an Idiocracy on steroids.
