Welcome to the resistance, Mike. I was curious about his followers' reaction on Twitter so I went to take a look. Heh.

I went for a walk this past Saturday. Early morning. Kinda chilly but the kind of morning where you knew it'd be perfect later. I had thought about getting my kids some donuts. They were all asleep when I left. But I decided we didn't need to spend the money.

Trump won in 2016, when Obama was president and oversaw the elections. Trump won in 2024, when Biden was president and oversaw the elections. The only election results Trump wants to dispute are the ones that he was presiding over.

I've seen like a half dozen stories about outrage at dems using stronger language lately, mainly some version of "fuck". I don't really care, I'm all for a change in tactic. But it does start to ring pretty disingenuous when they are all happening at the same time. Guess they got their memos.

Wilson shows up wherever the family is, always ready to offer advice and solace. Restaurants, parks, even when they’re on vacation hundreds of miles away. It just dawned on me that he’s not a real person. He’s a shared delusion. The family’s guardian angel.

What we see here is Donald Trump, acting as he always does, as a global chaos generator. The further we stand away from that, the better off we will be. Well said @georgemonbiot.bsky.social 👏 #bbcqt #IranWar

4 corporate Democrats funded by AIPAC voted with MAGA to let Trump continue to wage illegal war on Iran.😐 •Henry Cuellar: 202-225-1640 •Jared Golden: 202-225-6306 •Greg Landsman:202-225-2216 •Juan Vargas: 202-225-8045 Call & remind them we reject their complicity in fascism Jeffries should resign.

None of the peeps in Roller Coaster Tycoon are kids. You might say that they are generic ages but they walk to the park alone and none of them walk in groups. So a bunch of adults are walking around my parks eating cotton candy and buying balloons.

I watched the band Geese perform on SNL. I thought i liked one of their other songs, "Royal". I was so confused when I couldn't find it so I googled it. "Royal" is by a band called Goose, not Geese. What a silly goose I am.

It’s not just the shooting in these instances, it’s the moments before and after the shooting that make my blood boil. Purposefully escalating the scene, peacocking, mob mentality —> shooting —> refusal to render aid, preventing others from rendering aid, leaving the scene in chaos…

One thing stands out to me about Hegseth's "FAFO" speech moment and subsequent embarrassing lack of applause: these are perpetually online trolls who stumbled their way into running the country. How many of those generals sitting there didn't clap because they didn't even know the acronym?

BREAKING NEWS!!! This is a different prospective on the Korean “roundup” at the Hyundai plant, from a Korean American living in Korea. Even if Kemp begs and apologizes, it probably won’t matter, because Korean’s know Trump is a turd. Pls watch & REPOST! #news #politics #breakingnews #currentevents

The thing is, a lot of the capitulating because of pressure from the administration is pressure that they've put on on themselves. The companies, universities, and individuals who bend the knee could have just as easily not. The Trump administration is being run by incompetent people.

Are there examples of people who didn't cave and still faced consequences? The lawsuits were settled so we don't know what would have happened. Thomas Massie is out there fighting against his own party on the Epstein files and I don't see anything happening to him.

I wish I could talk to my dad again. He was way too young. I need my dad, my kids need their grandpa. Beautiful evening like this, I could easily imagine him sitting on a lawn chair next to me, watching my kids run around, trying in his own way to tell me he’s proud of the man I became.

People see a trans athlete and complain about it being unfair. There are conversations to be had regarding the issue, but those should happen at the local level, not the federal. Meanwhile, the biggest sports inequality is MONEY! Rich folks can pay for extra coaching, travel leagues, better stuff.
