Wanting to post about movies, tv, sw dev, food, travel... instead, frantically re/posting about the political crisis. Proud Dem. Harris should have won! DEI/A are virtues.

Schumer & Gillibrand facing mutiny from Dems over their outdated β€œcorporate-friendly” playbook, refusal to back Zohran, etc.

Long overdue. @schumer.senate.gov

Viola Fletcher, Oldest Survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Dies at 111

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

Move fast, break things, then run around saying how great you are to be fixing some of the things you broke. This is not governance it is a catastrophic attack on our Nation from within.

Trump wrongly indicted me. I’ll rightly impeach him.

Impeachment isn’t just an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent β€” but is it working?

We have to stop just blaming trump. It’s the entire Republican Party! They don’t give a damn about everyday Americans. Like Trump they only care about power & money. Don’t believe me take a good look at their β€œbig, ugly bill”.

This is who she was.
Passionate in her beliefs. Fiercely loyal to her friends. Never afraid to let you know exactly where she stood. The best.

Fun Fact: I remember arguing with her over which of us hated Piggy the most. I was sure I did. She disagreed. It remains unresolved...

Sam is right. DOGE did exactly what they wanted it to do- hurt poor people, destroyed faith in government, enriched Elon.

'Explosive resignations' to rock GOP as reps tire of being treated 'like garbage': insider Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) announced her retirement from Congress in a provocative manifesto that highlights growing tension in the Republican caucus β€” and party leaders are being warned it's ...

STAY LOUD!!!!

β€œMore explosive early resignations are coming," that senior House Republican added. "It’s a tinder box. Morale has never been lower. Mike Johnson will be stripped of his gavel and they will lose the majority before this term is out.”

A Disabled Child’s Mom Reported Him Missing. He Was Locked Away by Federal Immigration Authorities for 48 Days. Emmanuel, a 15-year-old who has an intellectual disability, walked away from his mom’s fruit stand in October. Houston Police called ICE.

Emmanuel, a 15-year-old with intellectual disabilities, wandered away from his mom’s fruit stand in October.

She reported him missing to Houston police. But instead of reuniting them, the city turned him over to ICE.

β€œThey’re failing all of us,” his mom said.

Behold the power of social norms.

People will quickly shape their actions to match those around them...often to the point of absurdity.

DOGE was always a very thinly disguised con to dress up data theft and extraction class destruction of federal corporate oversight as innovative, and it's important to remember that part of the reason it worked so well is that the press helped legitimize it

ICE agent carrying away a yard sign that says β€œICE kidnapping happened here”

ICE agent carrying away a yard sign that says β€œICE kidnapping happened here”

An ICE agent was caught removing a sign marking an ICE kidnapping in DC last week! Do we think he did it out of anger, embarrassment, or most appropriately shame? If you think what you’re doing is right, why are you trying to hide the evidence? πŸ‘€

A reminder that gas-powered leafblowers are nightmare devices that are bad for you, bad for your lawn, and very bad for the environment. They fume and scream and kill the world all so you can messily and ineffectively move leaves around, leaves which are generally supposed to stay where they fell.
