Yeller in the stands. With the writer of words, in the newspaper margins, in a Birmingham jail.. Vonnegut, Saroyan, Tolstoi, Kingsolver, W.T.Vollmann, Upton Sinclair, Cormac Mccarthy, "The Count of Monte Cristo". I could go on, but you get the idea.

This guy is just posted up outside of Congress and Iโ€™m honestly not sure what his political views are but I agree

From Public Square in Cleveland to Columbus streets, thousands turned out Friday to defend Haitian families in Springfield from an anticipated ICE surge. With TPS ending Febโ€ฏ3, protests in over 300 cities showed resistance canโ€™t be ignored.

Trumpโ€™s having trouble accepting his worldwide status as a disgrace.

I remember a college professor of mine going on a rant about how the world was owned and ruined by โ€œfive old white men on yachtsโ€

And I remember thinking, well, itโ€™s probably more that people donโ€™t examine their own actions, itโ€™s not like a couple of people control the world

But you know what

If the only thing you do between now and when elections are certified is to VOTE...that will not be enough.

Help educate others about the need to win every seat

Coach others to register

Volunteer in campaigns

Work to get multiple people to vote

Speak out rather than hide your views

Forget all the nonsense about Trump โ€œpivotingโ€ to moderation. The regime will continue to escalate.

But the thing is: In Minneapolis, people are holding the line. And the Trumpists have no effective strategy to consolidate authoritarian rule in the face of sustained resistance.

That is why strategically selective impeachment matters, even when you "fail" to win conviction and removal. In fact, failing to get conviction and removal may be the whole point, if you want to portray your opposition as unwilling or unable to address real wrongs.

I will say again, for the people in the back: the art of politics in a democracy is not merely counting votes. It is reframing issues in a way that CHANGES votes. It is making the case for what is impossible today, so it becomes more possible tomorrow.

I guess I figure they know without me telling them. I shouldn't assume. Someone told me that once...something about a u and a me..Thanks for the reply.

This narrative of "Trump slayed 9% inflation" is complicated by the fact that he actually inherited a 2.8% inflation rate. Sen Kennedy announced earlier today that he was tired of lying about it.

ICE Gestapo has had 47 days of training and a lifetime of indoctrinated white hate.

Here's to You Fannie Lou Hamer. We are All Sick and Tired of Being Sick and Tired. Ever since I read about her in the 1990โ€™s, I have been a fan of Fannie Lou Hamer. Until she joined the Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s, Fannie Lou Hamer was an ordinary black woman living a difficu...

So an odd thing here is that if you say "an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume" your point is to communicate "it is not really Batman" but the problem is that the real Batman, within the fiction of the comic book "Batman", is also, literally, an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume
