These kids have more guts than the partners sitting on the executive committees of Paul Weiss, Skadden, A&O Sherman, Willkie Farr, Cadwalader, Kirkland &. Ellis, and Simpson Thatcher put together

Never forget who bent the knee and who stood up for democracy, the rule of law, and the Constitution

Help push us over it!

Mayor Mamdani posts about a Trump-pardoned 1/6 “white supremacist” insurrectionist leading a racist protest at his house where they attempted to use an explosive device.

Hate has consequences. As @RepOgles fills up his feed with bigotry.

I wish people had higher standards for our military and didn’t just accept our war crimes as part of the gig

Even if you are 100% convinced that Democracy is already dead and our votes won't count...
PLEASE VOTE ANYWAY!
I'm begging everyone. There is a critical mass of voter turnout that will be too big to fix.
Please vote, no matter how bleak it seems.

Why Virginia’s January 6 Teaching Law Should Worry Everyone If the state can mandate history, is it still history?

I lost my cousin on 9-11 and have had to listen to all kinds of conspiracy theories about what happened and why. The state of New York mandates that it be taught through its curricular standards. That's how you do it. What Virginia is doing is dangerous. open.substack.com/pub/kevinmle...

They're going to poison a city with 17 million people

Reuters confirmed that the elementary school in the Iranian city of Minab was bombed TWICE by the US military, 40 minutes apart.

This was intentional.

They did not "accidentally" drop two bombs 40 mins apart,
Killing 168 children and 14 teachers.

Arrest the goddamn president

Tarrio is, quite literally, a pardoned terrorist.

Lies may be easy to consolidate in provincial contexts, but truth + the public record always prevail. Scapegoating + surveillance only work on a person who is cowed. I am not. I'm happy to share the data I have with the Queer Caucus, because it illustrates a larger attack on educators + 1A rights.

thank you for believing my words have value as i exist in a context that insists otherwise. the scapegoating of trans people in this moment is pervasive and cuts across ideological and political lines. i've been horrified by how quickly people will take to a lie that confirms their own biases.

this is a trap-- it is also a test of the american people Donald John Trump is not an American President.

this illegal war with iran a trap-- it is also a test of the american people

TODAY: People around are protesting Trump’s illegal war. And police around the country are on high alert.

“There always seems to be money for war, and these wars are always fought on the backs of working people.”

what the fuck?

WH may actually want a homeland hit from the other terrorists so that it will create more fear and panic

So he's just going to let terrorists attack and kill Americans. Lovely

Trump now blocking terror threat warnings because it makes him look bad.

“They don’t want anything getting out that says what they’re doing in Iran is raising the threat level at home.”
