Democrats should promise, today, that Melania Trump, Elon Musk and Peter Thiel will be stripped of citizenship and deported if the administration advances this effort

DOOHICKEY tool for keychain that has screwdriver, ruler, wrench, bottle opener & box cutter!

DOOHICKEY tool for keychain that has screwdriver, ruler, wrench, bottle opener & box cutter!

Thanks to @mtsw.bsky.social’s suggestion, everyone in my family, including me, got this in their stocking this year & it is beyond useful.

Screwdriver, ruler, wrench, bottle opener & box cutter! (The box cutter is the real game changer.)

Cheap too!

Goldman: "Will the survivors and victims who are here please stand up one more time. By show of hands, how many of you or your loved ones actually have met with the DOJ? None ... How many of you were ignored by the DOJ? All of them." (Bondi responds by smearing Goldman.)

"We're firmly asking you to please follow the existing laws" is not a negotiation tactic. It's a suicide note.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

I would have voted for Markey against Kennedy last time around, but come on this is insane.

The Boomers need to listen to what they themselves were screaming 50 years ago and let a new generation lead.

why would they portray one of Trump's staunchest allies as a critic of his regime's excesses while erasing the work of actual critics? I have a theory about this

serious question: why are we not doing serious organizing around pushing Dem Senators to replace Schumer? He is SO insanely out of touch with the base and it is just so glaringly clear he is not the person for the job in 2026.
