You ever just sit and stare at your computer or phone, just dumbfounded by the amount of stupid as fuck headlines you keep seeing one after the other? Like, how is this our reality right now? Did we actually die in 2019, and everything since has been a production in hell?

After the primaries are over, throw your entire support behind the people that won.

The infighting after the primaries is what helps the Republicans win. /3

A candidate doesn't meet your standards? Find one that does and throw your entire support behind them until after the primaries. /2

Democrats...get your shit together. This is the EXACT time and place to be nailing potential candidates to the proverbial wall for primaries.

WATCH: Trump, EPA's Zeldin announce end of scientific basis for U.S. action on climate change The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressiv...

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, weโ€™ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate changeโ€”all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

Why does it feel like the bad people get rewarded for their bad behavior, and the good ones get trampled and have to struggle?

Being justice sensitive is so hard sometimes.

If you haven't heard about the DHS black box warehouses, I highly recommend you look them up. They are death camps.

House bill seeks to tweak Utah's vote-by-mail system A bill introduced in the Utah State Legislature with the support of House Republican leadership would change Utah's vote-by-mail system, requiring most to return their ballot in-person and show ID.

Utah Republicans are trying to solve a problem that doesn't even exist. Their very own audits prove that mail-in voting is secure with virtually no fraud. In fact, we've been doing mail in voting for a decade with little problem...

Between 1930-1970s, over 1/3 of Puerto Rican women were sterilized. They called it "La Operaciรณn." The U.S. government funded it. By 1968, Puerto Rico had the highest sterilization rate in the world. ... TikTok video by Boricua Archives Unfiltered

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are buildingโ€”and have builtโ€”a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

It only took them 12 months to build massive concentration camps all over the USA. Youโ€™d think there would be more uproar, but no. No one cares unless itโ€™s in their backyard.

The Democratic Party is weak.

Not โ€œoutmaneuvered.โ€
Not โ€œplaying the long game.โ€
Weak.

When faced with an authoritarian movement, it chose to do nothing except send emails begging for more money from donors...

Thatโ€™s not leadership. Thatโ€™s abdication.
