Oh FOTUS will you ever learn about fact checkers?

Not me actually weeping for the last hour of Sinners with Michael B. Jordan and phenom Miles Caton. Who cries in a horror movie? Me. The writing made me fall in love with every single character, even the baddies. Really well done.

I wonโ€™t share RFK Jr.โ€™s lies about autism.

Itโ€™s disgusting and dangerous.

If he had a shred of decency, he would apologize and resign.

Autistic people contribute every day to our nationโ€™s greatness.

To every kid with autism, Iโ€™m in this fight all the way for you.

In fairness, China's pronouncers of state propaganda have a much better game then America's.

Not a life I would choose, but the irony here is worth noting: when people actually dare to exist outside the mold, theyโ€™re met with outrage instead of support. Shouldnโ€™t we be cheering them on? Isnโ€™t that the very promise of this countryโ€”that weโ€™re free to live the lives we choose?

I agree.

In a functioning democracy, we would already be in the midst of an impeachment trial.

My 10 year old sister and I got Social Security payments after my father died from exposure to Agent Orange. It helped my widowed mom when the family lost his income. He paid into it his whole life. They even took it from his check while he was serving in Vietnam. Jeanine can go fuck herself.

The four house democrats who voted for the SAVE Act: Jared Golden (Maine), Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (Wash.), Henry Cuellar (Texas) and Ed Case (Hawaii).

I wonder if Glusenkamp Perez knows this bill would probably strip her right to vote since โ€œGlusenkampโ€ isnโ€™t on her birth certificate.

Cough cough, not all of us. Class of โ€˜71 here. That said, no generation gets a pass. Everyone needs to band together and learn from history once and for all.

The question becomes, will we continue to support those farmers once they receive another $23B from the government?

Because weโ€™re still waiting for the epiphany. Weโ€™re waiting for a lightbulb moment. Itโ€™s not coming. No one in a position of power is going to sacrifice their comfort for ours. And yet, we wait.

Kill a white millionaire, get the death penalty. Kill two black protesters, get invited to CPAC to be celebrated.

Not to sound fatalist, but are we? We keep letting ourselves down whenever thereโ€™s a moment to turn the tide. Iโ€™m feeling bluer by the day. No pun intended from this English teacher, either.

We need to shift our mindset. No one is coming to save usโ€”there are no white horses, no rescuers on the horizon. The responsibility is ours alone. Itโ€™s time to step up and take action.
