Sharon Wylie angry and sad

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

We have apparently entered the "papers, please" stage of Trump's takeover of D.C. law enforcement.

WWJD — who would Jesus deport

It’ll be hard in the future to convince people who are looking back on this awful period that the perpetrators didn’t pull off some dastardly scheme, they were open about it in advance, and chosen by people who
-liked it
-assumed it wouldn’t happen but liked that it bothered others
-were kinda bored

I'm already seeing centrists and leftists sniping at each other but the blame for this is 100% on the Republicans. This is what they do with power and it is imperative that we work together to keep them as far from it as possible, forever.

Look what I found when I searched "ICE uniform" in Google Shopping.

None of us have any way of knowing if the "ICE agent" pushing you into a car, isn't just some unbalanced vigilante into cosplay. These are very dangerous times.

Padres fans, take gentle care of yourselves. That was rough.

I need everyone on Normal People internet to know that American Girl Doll Instagram is doing doll protests today. There are tiny t-shirts and signs. AND THEN I realized it's a joint protest with the Barbie ppl, where there are EVEN TINIER SIGNS.

assassinations, handcuffing a senator at press conference, marines detaining a civilian, and a military parade for the president’s birthday. rough week for democracy.

Didn’t Trump refuse to attend the dignified transfer of four Army soldiers who died during a military training mission—just to attend a Saudi-backed golf dinner with his billionaire Saudi donor buddies?

This parade isn’t about honoring the Army’s anniversary. It’s 100% about boosting Trump’s ego.

Trump’s Ego Parade: $45 Million
National Guard/Marines: $134 Million

Republicans pretending they care about waste spending and fiscal responsibility: Priceless

Scoop: Rocket launchers, missiles to be featured in Trump's Army parade President Trump has envisioned the June 14 parade — which is scheduled on his 79th birthday — as a show of U.S. military might.

The money being spent on Trump’s ego parade could feed every single homeless veteran in America for more than four months.

Donald Trump handing “get-out-of-jail-free” cards to the January 6th mob while deploying Marines to LA and threatening anyone who protests his ego parade isn’t law and order or leadership - it’s authoritarianism. Call it what it is.

This was a great game for our pitcher, definitely!

The Padres shut out the Rockies and beat them by three touchdowns 😳

That earthquake was long enough that I started to not like it.

Your post says Prime instead of Pride, and for one horrible moment, I thought this was somehow sponsored by Amazon. But Pride Promenade sounds awesome!!

My first and definitely last time working with the Los Angeles Times. Editing out the most urgent point of an OpEd in the minutes before sending to press while then also assigning a title and image that suggest an argument entirely opposite to the author’s clear intent is pretty shitty.

Are you in or near a recently burned area?

With rain in the forecast, it’s important to stay alert to the increased risk of debris flows in areas recently impacted by #wildfires in Los Angeles.

It actually is very important that you do things that you take pleasure in, regularly. That is part of how you survive the things that feel like they are going to destroy you.

Bishop Urges Trump To 'Have Mercy' In Powerful Plea During Inauguration Prayer Service Love this ❤️ And his reaction!

Ah, got it, thanks!

Sorry, what’s IC?

as you seethe with anger over the absolute callousness of this remark, remember that this country has always practiced child-taking to punish marginalized people—except that the phrases “child welfare” and “child protective services” help to obscure the connection. 🥚

It's also been my experience that the people most likely to be performing the "woe is us! democracy is dead and gone! we have no hope any more and there's no point even trying!" are very often the people who are least at risk.

The people who are most at risk are gearing up for a fight.
