Stop Trump’s D.C. Takeover Trump sent the National Guard into Washington, D.C. to intimidate his opponents and distract from his failed agenda. Email Congress now and demand they end his takeover of our nation’s capital.

Trump declared a fake emergency in D.C. and sent in the military. Congress can end this abuse of power—join @standupamerica.com & demand action now: act.standupamerica.com/letters/cte-...

War hero schools a chickenhawk.

Fear has a way of being contagious.

But courage is also contagious.

Just got to the Mall and saw this sign, which no one is going to top.

The next Canadian Prime Minister should appoint Trudeau as Ambassador to the United States.

This....

TEXT: My oath is to the Constitution of our state and of our country. We don’t have kings in America – and I don’t intend to bend the knee to one. I am not speaking up in service to my ambitions — but in deference to my obligations.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

If this isn't obvious to you, then you're either hopelessly brainwashed or not paying attention.

Normalize pronouncing DOGE as DOUCHE.

So Trump wants to take over the Panama Canal, Greenland, annex Canada, and now take control of the Gaza Strip? Are we entering a new age of imperialism? Last I checked, that never ends well.

I was really hoping we'd have a woman as president before we had one from South Africa, but here we are.

I hadn’t gotten around to renewing my Time subscription. Now I never will. Another MSM sell-out.

Billionaires have more money than they could ever need but never enough to fill the holes in their souls. They would send every last one of you into an early grave if it meant paying one cent less in taxes.

Land doesn’t vote. Stop pretending it does.

Every time I read the local news and see a teacher who was awarded a $250 grant for her classroom, I understand that she spent hours of her own time applying for it. Writing it. Going through a submission process.

For $250. For her classroom…

I don’t take credit for this meme, but I do co-sign.

Sage words 👏👏👏

Who just caught Jake Tapper’s interview of Rick Scott about Hegseth’s nomination? Sure sounded like the dude was on a serious buzz, and his defense of Hegseth was pathetic. Nutshell: Wear the uniform, serve in combat, and Sec of Defense is an automatic yes.

Why read books? Because reading opens minds & hearts. It helps us imagine different lives and different worlds; it can help us build a better world. So please keep reading books with kids, and encouraging them to read. There is nothing more important. #literacy #books #reading

Each time our nation has advanced closer to the more inclusive, pluralist, multi-racial democracy to which we’ve aspired at our best, that advance was preceded by a period of crisis and conflict.

This time is no different. A better democracy is on the other side of this crisis.

Eyes on the prize

Every single school should have a library & a librarian, to help every single child find the books that will make them readers, and give them all the lifelong benefits of literacy. Libraries & librarians change children's lives FOREVER!

Word of the day is ‘librocubicularist’: one who loves nothing better than reading in bed.

(Not easy to say, but I’m glad to know it exists).
