Look. Invading our own country is about as straightforward a case as you can have for impeachment. The GOP abandoning the Constitution is kind of the only story there is and it gets no coverage.

They had nothing but a bad study to run with and nobody with any actual expertise in the matter, and they promised SOMETHING, so this is what we got!

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

President Johnson, in a November 9, 1968 letter to the Smothers Brothers:

“It is part of the price of leadership of this great and free nation to be the target of clever satirists . . . May we never grow so somber or self-important that we fail to appreciate the humor in our lives.”

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

a lighter-colored tortoiseshell cat sitting on a blue fleece sweatshirt on an off-white couch. She is squinting at the camera and her front left paw is stretched out. There is an orange and teal striped throw pillow behind her and a teal pillow in the right side of the frame.

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

Today is a FINE FUCKING DAY to stop posting screenshots from Twitter, a platform your dumb ass should have abandoned a long time ago.

Stop wading in sewage and bringing us the ripest turds.

Trying to strike a balance between hating political violence and hating Charlie Kirk, while acknowledging America’s history of violence against Black leaders and liberation activists that Kirk doesn’t care about, while also pointing out the systemic problems the right built that led us to this...
