When I first heard “I’d rather die on my feet than live on my knees.” I thought it was a bad ass choice. Now I realize it’s not a “choice.” It’s a reaction. Something happens: you stand up, or you cower. Sheeran cowered. Macklemore stood up.

In a new poll, Americans give President Donald Trump a -20 net approval rating on “elections and democracy,” as he continues to pitch restricting the vote as a path to electoral victory in November. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

13yo: Why does J. Jonah Jameson hate Spider-man? Me: [explains] 13yo: Oh, so for the same reason the New York Post hate Mayor Mamdani. Me: Goddamn, I’m doing this right!

When the banks needed help, they called it “stabilizing the economy.” When airlines needed help, they called it “protecting jobs.” When corporations got tax breaks, they called it “pro-growth.” When working people need health care? “SOCIALISM.”

I remember when Bill Clinton met with the Attorney General for three minutes when Hillary was being investigated for mishandling classified information, and the republicans cried bloody murder. Now, the AG nominee is covering for pedophiles and that seems okay. WHAT THE FUCK?

It’s weird being called a communist because you want people to have healthcare. Meanwhile the fascists only care about protecting pedophiles and doing genocide.

My revulsion at the mainstream media for participating in the WHCD tonight can’t be overstated. They’re laughing at his jokes and shaking his hand? Fuck off. The corporate press is an enemy addicted to access. And this was true before the Ellison’s started their takeover.

The real fraud that occurred in the 2020 election was Trump pressuring Raffensperger to “find 11,780 votes”, and then convincing his mob to storm the Capitol when it didn’t work.

Just remember he will take nothing with him. Not one dollar. Not one McDonalds cheeseburger. Not one golden toilet. He’ll leave with just his bloated body. We on the other hand have champagne waiting.

Not one man who used Jeffrey Epstein to help them rape underage girls has been arrested. But a man has been arrested for placing his hand the Reflecting Pool's water. #NationalPriorities

NOTEWORTHY: Congress funded ICE and CBP with ZERO votes from democrats. Dems held their ground, and I’m glad for that.

If, at the end of this dark era, we actually have a Democratic president again, there is one thing they absolutely must take to heart: F*ck forgiveness. Our country will only unite behind criminal prosecution and prison sentences, before eventually, slowly, beginning to heal.

I’m not even joking. We have allowed 6 fascists dressed like professors at Hogwarts—all too chickenshit to sign their names—to detonate our democracy. The system only works if we all believe in it. Certainly my faith has been shaken. But maybe destroying our belief in it is their ultimate objective?

At what point does the antipathy towards the law repeatedly shown by the Leonard Leo crew render the entire Supreme Court null & void? There’s no longer even the pretense of fairness. When do we decide to ignore them? Or do we just continue to let six hateful white nationalists destroy the country?

This heinous ruling confirms a worst-case-scenario reading of Callais as an all-purpose shield for racist lawmakers who want to gerrymander Black communities into electoral oblivion. And it’s outrageously partisan—a totally unprincipled gift to the GOP. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

“I’ve been eating BBQ since before Ken Paxton’s first indictment” is a great joke. I’d love to see Talarico swap out the punchline each time he tells it. “…since before Ken Paxton cheated on his wife” “…since before Ken Paxton was impeached by his own party” There are hundreds of options.

BREAKING: I'm suing Todd Blanche and the DOJ to STOP the $1.8B slush fund. The Justice Department violated the Administrative Procedures Act when it established the fund, and it must be set aside. You can read my complaint here: www.muellershewrote.com/p/breaking-i...

ICE detention facilities are concentration camps with subhuman conditions. And somehow, the entire Dem caucus is not using its power and visibility to SHUT THAT SHIT DOWN! I cannot get my head around the silence and indifference of people who supposedly share my values.
