This is good. What it means is that there's room for athletes, fighters, the old, the young, rapid responders, protesters, yellers, video-ers, sign carriers as well as inflatable animal wearers in the resistance. There's room for everyone who wants to resist in increasingly creative ways! Fight on!

I'm a retired one, and I never voted for one, as a rule, without solid evidence they had some understanding of society, humanity, and civics. So, never.

All the people appointed by trump are extremely low quality.

A classroom, teacher at the desk, students facing her. Teacher says, "Children, today we're going to learn code! It's important for a prosperous future!" Girl raises her hand and says, "Teacher, after that, could we learn how to survive in a civilization threatened by ecosystem collapse, rising sea levels and the resulting geo-political turmoil, armed conflict and the increasing polarization of ideological orientations, and humanity's seemingly insatiable appetite for stuff?"

Worst case (probable reality), he's fascist-friendly. Best case, he's an absolute moron, outside of his money-making function.

Yeah, another example of why billionaires should not exist. Too much power concentrated in the hands of a fascist-friendly moron.

Probably where he hopes to escape the apocalypse, the torches and pitchforks.

Heck yeah!! 💖 Will also strongly suggest folks avoid walls of emojis and special fonts 😊

Adelita Grijalva won her election to Congress over two weeks ago, but Mike Johnson still hasn't sworn her in.

Why the delay?

Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

Photo of a soldier (looks like WWII) sitting on a box outside a tent writing a letter: "My dearest, War truly is hell here in Portland. I have witnessed such atrocities in my short time here. The worst of which was a horde of naked cyclists riding by. It gives me chills to think of how many of them sat on their balls. My only thought now is to make it home to you. Love, your guardsman."

War is hell.

Thank you, @sanders.senate.gov for bringing this gross dysfunction in our American system to light.

I think we all want these doctors to get a fair shake.

Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000 donated to a political nonprofit she was affiliated with, records show.

She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms.

How could the Palisades Fire have reignited after a week? Experts explain Fires can smolder underground for months. "It really is more common than I think people realize,” a fire scientist says. “It just doesn’t usually reignite another fire."

Underground fires are a thing.

Yeah. Inarticulate, profane annoyance at being criticized in a way he can't substantively respond to. MAGA-lite. Is he going to head in that direction?

Burr seems very defensive. And his response to critics is a bunch of non-sequiturs about Timberland and Starbucks. He says the people were very funny. He might not have liked the 245 people executed for, apparently, not being funny in the right way.

trump regime: "Waaaah! Waaah! The mean Democrats are bossing us around! Waaah! They're in the minority but so scary we can't even rule!

trump regime: blaming the DP when the GOP/Confederacy has the House, the Senate, and the WH. Have they forgotten how to make anything work?

White lettering on black: "To the Chicago restaurants refusing to serve ICE, the businesses locking their doors when they show up, and the tow truck drivers hauling their vehicles away -- thank you. Stay Strong, Chicago.

Hold the line.

MAJOR BREAKING: In a late-night order, Judge Immergut, a Trump-appointee, has BLOCKED Trump from deploying the National Guard from ANY state or D.C. into Oregon.

Same judge. While Miller rails about judges.

Probably true, but it would be different. And he'd be presiding over a situation in which his predecessor had been removed for overreach, incompetence, and defying the constitution. Hopefully. We should not hesitate to use the tools we have cuz our situation is bad.

Yeah, I know.

Someone who thinks they are the king should be automatically disqualified from office via the 25th amendment. People whose duty it is to put the 25th in motion and who fail to do so should suffer some accountability at some point, too. We're taking names.

one of these days, he'll spew the backhanded shit, then smirk, then fart noisily and fall on his butt in front of a lot of people he wanted to impress.

John Roberts will be criticized for his ugly capitulation to trump and authoritarianism and white supremacy. That's his legacy.

Hey, but MAGA tells me that by deporting a bunch of immigrants now there's more healthcare to go around!!

Isn't that the way it works????? har har

Republicans: Some tips for ya -

➡️ Child molestation is bad. Always. Stop hiding your perps.

➡️ Shutting down a government is bad.
For workers, families, small businesses, public health (if you care about that), public services, research, our economy, our global standing, our DEMOCRACY.

Trump wants the U.S. military to practice fighting unarmed civilians in Portland as a training exercise.

This is, what, the 200th impeachable offense? Republicans in Congress, cabinet secretaries -- where are you? Ready to do your jobs yet?

Trump and Hegseth are violent buffoons. Get.Them.Out.
