I have started dating a man who is very nice but does not share my politics. Any advice? "You just have to get the fuck out of there. What are you thinking? He must be incredibly attractive-looking. I mean, what is it? Is he tall? Does he remind you of your father? There's only two kinds of politics these days, and you can't breathe the same air as the other kind."

Well I was not expecting BILL NIGHY to be spitting facts today!

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Make a wish...

That's not deportation, it's kidnapping.

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

'Dandelions,' was painted by the Danish artist Bertha Wegmann around 1910. It wasn't an arbitrary choice of a plant to paint: the dandelion was used to promote the women’s liberation movement in Scandinavia because of its capacity for uncontrolled, strong-willed growth.

Outstanding webinar this afternoon with Heather Cox Richardson and Simon Rosenberg. Three, among many, take-aways:
1) We need to put pressure on our elected leaders.
2) We need to act out. Trump hates protests.
3) We are are stronger than we know.

Omg. In a shocking moment, Nancy Bolan, a fired USAID worker and tonight’s guest of Rep. Ritchie Torres — reveals that Donald Trump has pulled the U.S. from the global polio eradication initiative — which threatens its spread to the U.S. Every single American should see this.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Is this legit?

Medicaid is not for sale.
NASA is not for sale.
The Post Office is not for sale.
America is not for sale.

We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Today’s cover of Le Journal de Montréal, the largest newspaper in Quebec, Canada.

Like with every single negotiation he does, Donold is going to lose and then declare victory and then his fans will all call him a genius even though he’s a lying moron.

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
