It feels like a terrifying number of people in law enforcement are just dying to inflict violence on the American people.
I hope the many men and women who take their vow to protect and serve seriously are brave enough to stand up to the corruption and ensure our human/civil rights are protected.

My wife is there with her students and just missed this. She would have loved for her kids to see history.

SEN. PADILLA: “Saying I lunged is a lie, but that’s par for the course for this administration… I was behind the cameras listening, and at a certain point hearing Noem say they had to rescue LA from the Governor and Mayor was too much to take. So I raise my voice to ask a question.”

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

Idk man but when the administration that tried to reject humanitarian aid for Los Angeles when it was burning tries to justify their illegal military occupation by saying they aren’t going to let LA burn it kinda sounds like bullshit

Seth gets it

$45 million for this bullshit parade for Trump.

I don't ever want to hear a fucking Republican tell me we don't have money to make sure every American has good health care.

Give me a break.

If you’re lucky, you’re on this earth for maybe, what, 70, 80 years? Is it really too much to ask you to just leave other people alone and let them try to have a nice life without you being an absolute nob head about it?

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

A Nazi throws several books onto a bonfire in Bebelplatz Square in Berlin, Germany on May 10th, 1933.

May 10th, 1933. The Nazis in Germany stole 10,000 books from the Institute for Sexual Science. This was the first medical institution to study hormone therapy and surgeries for trans people. The books were dragged into Bebelplatz Square and set on fire. Speeches were given celebrating the burning.

Could the Texas State Board of Education (SBOE) change State Board of Educator Certification rules to target licensure of teachers who discuss trans-related issues? 2 SBOE members weigh in on Abbott's comments. SBEC is appointed by the Governor, but final rule review goes through SBOE. #txlege #txed

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps.

The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years.

History is repeating. Pay attention.

It’s way too expensive to try to cure cancer, so Trump is going to abandon all efforts and just let your loved ones die.

Why? Because it’s cheap cheaper that way. It’s a good deal.

Trump is deporting the guy who mows your lawn but releasing the guy who bashed a police officer’s head in back to your community.

we have 14k members?? omgg 🥹

Black text on white background reading: You didn’t measure up in any measure of a man.

I think it’s very important to draw gay art and have gay sex right now. Give it a try, if you haven’t already. This is my advice for today.

RIP to our snowman Enzo. We loved you while you were with us.

i wasn't born to work, i was born to go on adventures, browse book shops, concoct potions, cast spells and spend my days sipping coffee in my 18th century seaside castle.

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.

There'll be time tomorrow to come to terms with what's happening. Tonight I think it's best just to get quite pissed.

We learn to drive at 11 to bring dad home from the bar... That's what's wrong.

My favorite versions of DBATC and Cornelia street. <3

This TikTok scam by Trump is really something. In a few days, we will be hearing from Trump about how he “saved Tik Tok” & “brought it back.” He literally created the problem by calling for a ban. Rs pass a law. It gets banned. It goes dark for a day or 2, then Trump “saves” it.

But some people are just too old and frail to handle cold weather.

Goldman Sachs asks in biotech research report: 'Is curing patients a sustainable business model?' Goldman Sachs warns sales from the most successful disease treatments are difficult to maintain.

We possess the technology to create products that nearly never break. We were doing it in the 70's & 80's.

Then came 'planned obsolescence' - intentionally designing products to become obsolete or break quickly within a set time frame.

This is that- but in reverse.

All I want is a cottage in the Scottish Highlands, a freshly-fallen snow, a crackling fire, a riveting mystery novel, a kettle on the stove, and a healthy supply of emotional support scones.
