Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

I feel like one of the most underrated explanations for what's happening right now in global politics is that almost everyone has lost their minds.

What he said: 💯 🎯

Stephen Miller Would Kill His Parents Before He Was Born "If my nephew’s ideas on immigration had been in force a century ago, our family would have been wiped out." Beset by violent anti-Jewish pogroms in Russia, Miller's ancestors migrated to America in 1903. www.politico.com/magazine/sto...

More cracks in the dam

Unfortunately violence is at home in America, thanks to our prevalence of guns, propagandized media, dangerous GOP rhetoric, and the massive unchecked and tolerated hate from racists, transphobes, neo-nazis, white christian nationalists, and many more Until we face these ugly facts, nothing changes

It’s a pattern. Nov 14, aboard Air Force One, Trump told Bloomberg reporter Catherine Lucey, “Quiet. Quiet, piggy.” It’s not new. He called Miss Universe Alicia Machado “Miss Piggy” and “Miss Housekeeping.” He’s called women “fat pigs,” “dogs,” “slobs,” and “disgusting animals.” This from 2016…

We don’t deserve dogs 😍❤️🐾

One thing you could say about George W. Bush, he took on the Taliban and Saddam Hussein. Trump on the other hand is taking on fishermen in Caribbean waters!!

“He’s having a seizure and they’re trying to rip the baby out of her hands”

Elon Musk called USAID a terrorist organization He wielded a chainsaw as he bragged about DOGE “feeding [it] into the wood chipper” MAGA cheered Now 400,000 children are dead Their demise is Musk’s legacy NEVER let him forget it

Worst. President. EVER.

Alexa: show me a white middle class Reform racist

🎁 Gift Article: In Spain Generalísimo Francisco Franco controlled the country from 1936 until his death in 1975, killing astonishingly large numbers of his subjects during and after the Civil War, then crushing the nation in a joyless authoritarian stranglehold for the following 40 years.

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Absolutely no one spends $350 million on a remodel to a house they plan on leaving in three years. No one!!!

Things like this keep happening.

Sunday President diarrheas on the country, Monday President bulldozes White House, Tuesday President steals $230 million, Wednesday President... fucks a horse? Let's see if he fucks a horse.

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

Elizabeth Warren nailed it.

Finally came across video of an arrest at a #NoKings event yesterday. 🙄

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight. Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

Thune: "If I were a woman I'd be talking to my doctor and not taking advice from RFK"

What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity. And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.

Racism is the reason the Voting Rights Act was made into law in the first place! When were White people ever denied voting rights in America prior to VRA or discriminated against at all?🤔 I'll wait. 🔥☕️ #ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory time.com/7314300/voti...

Someone fixed Trump's Time cover.

This senile liar who currently occupies the White House does not remember that he was President on January 6th. If you voted for this senile liar, and if you enable him today, you clearly are ok with breaking America. The ruins of our once great nation are because of you.

The late Alexei Navalny should have gotten a post-humous Nobel peace prize.

Schiff: "If a president in secret can put names on a list and kill them, then there is no war power still retained by Congress, and there's no check on an executive who may drag us into another war."

www.dcbar.org/attorney-dis... File a complaint with the DC Bar Assn! Ethics have left the building! This may not be the exact form/process but it is a start to getting her disbarred! Todd b. too!! They're bad for justice and America!

Make America Great Again… GTF Out!

Kristi Noem confronts enemy combatants in the Portland war zone today.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Healthcare should be guaranteed as a human right #MedicareForAll @salaambhattiva.bsky.social

He could’ve fought, but he faked bone spurs. So someone else had to go in his place - most likely a working class kid whose daddy couldn’t afford to bribe a doctor. Now he’s talking shit about how it should’ve been fought.

People💙Trump is playing with peoples lives and exposing them to danger!! How the hell can we allow this to progress in the way that it is currently being implemented? We’re all in danger!! #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #DemsUnited

Abughazaleh: I think Kristi Noem should be tried at The Hague. And if the response from ICE to people exercising their first amendment right is to drive vehicles through them, they should not be an agency in the US.

ICE is too dangerous to be left unaccountable. Violence & abuse against Americans is wrong. If you see an incident occurring, get out your cellphone. Document it. Send it to your Congressperson and the press. Do it anonymously if you need to. #BeTheChange

…and where have we seen this before 🤨

The theater of fascism, where the only thing that's real is the fear that it intends to provoke.

Secret Army - Russian Roulette (4th October 1978). Kessler organises a garden party - one which his guests will never forget.

Sean Combs got less time than bro who stole a piece of pizza

Spot on.
