A group of people in whimsical inflatable costumes—including two pink unicorns, a T. rex, and someone in a green alien suit—walk cheerfully down a sunny Portland, Oregon sidewalk. The meme text at the top reads “ANTIFA RALLY,” mocking conspiracy claims by labeling the silly parade as political.

Laughter is medicine. G’night all

I heard her speak at my undergrad and it was almost surreal. She will be missed

State of play: King (Maine), Cortez-Masto (Nevada), and Fetterman (Asshole) caved. GOP will look for more on the next vote. Top targets are the others who caved in March:
Schatz (HI)
Durbin (IL)
Gillibrand & Schumer (NY)
Hassan & Shaheen (NH)
Peters (MI)

Keep an eye on Warner/Kaine in Virginia too.

#TrumpShutdown

As the government shutdown begins, remember that one of the biggest deficit drivers of the past 20 years are Republican tax cuts for the wealthy & corporations. The issue isn't programs that help millions of Americans, it's giveaways to the rich.

“Non-practicing white woman”. I’m stealing that.

Racism and fascism. If they can claim something isn’t white then it can be labeled as other and chased down in the street and deported. Or worse.

Mood. Have to stop it while we can.

Image of former U.S. President Donald Trump standing with arms folded, wearing a dark suit and red tie. Next to him, in large white text, is a quote: “The greatest threat facing the United States is its own president.” Beneath the quote, attribution reads “The Washington Post.”

I just took a Tylenol and one of the side-effects was chronic curiosity about who else is in the Epstein Files. Ask your doctor if apprehending pedophiles is right for you.

@fatedmates.net y’all should talk :)

Maybe they should check Voodoo Donuts? If they ran out of snacks there could be violence… ;)

Republicans have the presidency, the House, and the Senate. They own any shutdown.

History's wheel seems to turn and repeat itself.

Red scare - reporting suspected commies to the gov

Lavender scare - reporting suspected gay persons to the gov

NOW - reporting those who speak "wrongly" of kirk

Each one a form of quashing the opposition/"other"

A simple, solemn graphic: black sans-serif text on an off-white background. The message honors the 290,000 federal workers who lost their careers in 2025, ending with a note of solidarity on Labor Day. The minimalist design underscores dignity, loss, and collective remembrance.

I mean, we’d pay for it! Please?

This is what American leadership looks like. We need more people like this running for Congress.

Tweet Gav Newsom and Nome.

Their plan is to rehabilitate and then pardon an adjudicated habitual sex assaulter and human trafficker as a character witness for a different habitual sex assaulted who methodically defames his victims. No judge or jury would find either of them credible, and neither should anyone else.

I remember when this happened.

Robert Reich, the former labor secretary and retired professor, has warned about rising inequality in America for decades. Now, he’s become a star online with an audience of millions, and he feels his message is more urgent than ever. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/26/m...

Think of it this way: he’s soliciting false and/or misleading testimony from a convicted child sex trafficker and rapist to vouch for him so that he doesn’t have to show you the actual evidence that points toward his involvement and guilt, in exchange for clemency from life in prison.

A must watch!

We cannot overstate the cruelty of this horrifying EO.

When will our “leaders” take meaningful action? It is obvious they have learned NOTHING from history. It is no longer party politics flitting about. This is humanity and morality, and we are failing.

Cat account with 1 million followers to protest JD Vance's Nantucket fundraiser Local activist groups will hold the “Meowtucket” rally to protest JD Vance's fundraiser visit to the island. Here's what to know.

What grotesque theater—$250K to dine with a man who sells despair as virtue. But on this island of moneyed silence, a cat-led chorus roars back. Meowtucket ain’t cute. It’s resistance. The children of democracy claw when cornered. And baby, the claws are out.
