The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

A heartfelt "fuck you" to everyone who told me I was overreacting in November 2016.

This‼️

A flowchart that goes as follows: "What breed is my cat?" This leads to the question "Does it have papers from a breeder?" if the answer is "yes" it leads to "It is what those papers say it is." If the answer is "no" it leads to "It is a cat."

Periodic reminder that over 90% of cats are not a "breed". The vast majority of longhaired tabbies are not Maine Coons. Most grey cats are not Russian Blues. Most black cats are not Bombays. They're just lovely, perfect mixed breed cats that come in all colors and coat lengths!

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him.

He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons.

He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him.

He’s defying the Supreme Court.

Don’t you see what’s happening here?

Am I depressed because of what's happening or am I depressed because of the people who somehow didn't see it coming?

Both. It's both.

Just a legal historian here reminding everyone that “high crimes and misdemeanors” do not need to be felonies.

They can include political abuses and stupidity, like, hypothetically, destroying the economy and wiping out people’s savings in 3 days.

This is really unfair to everyone who just voted for him for the racism.

Maybe everyone can see it now, but the world's richest people have tanked it all to restock assets and get liquid after years of illegally playing with funny money. They used "the wokeness" as a cudgel and it worked. The next Disney princess WILL be white, as we all eat beans under the highway.

Wait.

Schumer is starting a BOOK TOUR THIS WEEK?!? Is that why he rolled over so fast?!?

I’m done.

Senate democrats appear poised to remind everyone why people didn't show up to vote for democrats in 2024.

Collaborators with the fascists.

These are the senators who collaborated with the GOP.

Schumer
Fetterman
Cortez Masto
Durbin
King
Shaheen
Gillibrand
Schatz
Hassan
Peters

Don’t let them forget it. No peace for them.

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN.

☎️: (202) 224-3121

Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid.

The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING.

Call retiring Senators too!

Woke up mad at the government again

@aoc.bsky.social: "You have a right to see your elected member of Congress... Our job is to hear from people. And if you aren't doing town halls because your own residents and members of your community are upset with what you're doing, the answer is you’ve got to own your decisions."

What a photo.

Green must be the start of something, not the end.

"They'll never cut Social Security" is the new "they'll never overturn Roe v Wade."

An important statement from the American Bar Association. www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...

Yes absolutely!

I think it's cute you actually think we'll have free and fair elections in 2026 at the rate we're going. Trump already told people we'll never have to vote again- are we seriously doing this again where we don't take him at his word?

This.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame.

The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight.

It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

This Is the Way to Stop Elon Musk Senate Democrats have the power to block federal contracts to Tesla and SpaceX. It’s the path to pushing Musk out of politics.

The guy who racked up almost $8T in debt during his first term has no interest in paying it down.

The federal purge underway is to allow for oligarchs to make trillions in privatization and run roughshod in a deregulated landscape.

Remember that in an oligarchy, everything is run by the oligarchs.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand.
