Sending military troops and heavily-armed federal agents to patrol the streets and scare vulnerable communities does not make us safer.

“CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE IS NOT OUR PROBLEM. Our problem is civil obedience. Our problem is that people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of leaders…and millions have been killed because of this obedience…Our problem is that people are obedient all over the world in the face of poverty and starvation and stupidity and war, and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves… (and) the grand thieves are running the country. That’s our problem.” ~ Howard Zinn

Some positive news. #FDT

Life comes at you fast

94% of teachers have had to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies. An estimated 1 in 6 have second jobs during the school year to make ends meet.

The average Wall Street employee got a record $244,700 bonus last year.

Something has gone terribly wrong.

"He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you,"

The only path to that place, is to convince others that it has value for them too.

Everyone has to personally want it.

Bonta: Frustratingly and ironically, after the federal administration argued that there was a rebellion and an inability to enforce federal laws in L.A., they are now claiming in trial that the 4,700 military personnel deployed to L.A. basically did nothing.

🤦🏻‍♂️

Yep!!! 👍👍

👍 yes

ALL that! 😡

Paradox? Tricky? No.

Litmus test:
“What would the leaders of the group in question do to us if our roles were reversed?”

Expand Freedom & Liberty?
Be tolerant of us & our criticisms of them?

If not then our tolerance is, “bringing a knife to a gun fight!”

Don’t be a fool😡

I want every blue state to do what Gavin Newsom is doing.

Give the GOP no quarter. 

Trump: If you're innocent why are you talking the 5th Amendment?

Lawyer to Epstein: Have you and Donald Trump socialized with females under the age of 18?

Epstein: I'm invoking the 5th!

Notification about the Kennedy Center Honors:

"Let me be crystal clear: crime in DC is ending and ending today."

Tapper: What do you make of Abbott’s argument that you’re fleeing like chickens…

Crockett: The only weakling is the Governor himself. It’s not Texans that asked him to do this—it is the criminal in the White House that begged for him to do this.

Raskin: In any event, if he really cared about public safety in DC… he would not have pardoned 1600 insurrectionists and violent cop beaters on his first day in office. 

Every news broadcast should run the facts split-screen in real time while Trump spews his lies.

Nice work, @msnbc.com — every network had time to prepare because they knew what was coming.
