I'm attending No Kings's event, “NO KINGS in Philadelphia” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

Flying over the marching crowds at the Philadelphia Hands Off protest is a banner with a white horse _proper_, quartered with a sun _gules_, on a field _vert_ with a border _or_ - the banner of the Rohirrim.

Somebody at #Philly #HandsOff flying the banner of Rohan, and I'm NGL... I'm kinda tearing up.

"Where is the horse and the rider...?"

Want to join me for this Indivisible Philadelphia event?

Memes and chuckles don’t cut it, democrats. Where are the calls for a special prosecutor? Where are the calls for resignations? Imagine if the shoe was on the foot. Republicans would rightly be all over this. Or is this massive, dangerous, outrageous act of incompetence already old news?

Every person on that call should have known better, including JD Vance and Tulsi Gabbard, whose title is Director of Intelligence.

Every person on that call should resign including the vice president. Lock them up.

Senators Not a Definitive "No" on Cloture

Schumer just says he will vote yes. We have until Friday to get at least 40 Dems to vote no. Here's a list of the Senators without a confirmed NO on the Cloture vote. We have flooded their phones and emails, now we take to their socials

Then, as many have mentioned, follow up quickly with rallies and town halls. Senators should hold rallies in Republican areas of their respective states.

Every Dem should wear all black and be provided with a simple sign: LIE. Remain silent and seated throughout the entire speech, but when he lies, hold your sign high. Get up and walk out silently the minute the speech is over.

If you were in Congress, what would you do for the State of the Union? What do you think Dems should do?

Agreed, though this works only if everybody does it.

This afternoon at the White House, President Trump and Vice President Vance looked into the eyes of a man fighting for his country’s freedom from tyranny and told him to say “thank you.” 🧵

Admittedly, I am loyal to a fault. When everybody else was canceling their Washington Post subscription months ago, I held on. But no more. Farewell, Washington Post. I miss the old you.

i feel like it's an open question whether or not the flu vaccine will even be available next season

And so it begins.

Of misogyny, Musk, and men Women are not okay. We're furious.

“Women are walking around, suspicious and guarded and apoplectic, knowing that some in our families or neighborhoods voted us back into second-class status, and wondering what else they’re ready to go along with.” By

I met him years ago when we lived in San Jose. He’s a bona fide hero there. It was a limited interaction, but he seemed like a very nice man.

I am old enough to remember the terror of children I knew personally who were consigned to life inside an "iron lung," because of polio infections in the days before effective, mandatory vaccines

RFKJr is old enough to remember that too. So is man who appointed him. (Getty Images photo, mid1950s)
