Is everyone ready to stop relying on the gov't to fix the U.S. financial situation yet?

Where are my anti-capitalism boycotts at? No Kings is great and all, but the people need to hit the corporations that are residing in politician's pockets. HARD.

Tis the season 😉 Let's make it one to remember.

I see a lot of people say that the government shouldn't get a paycheck while it's shut down.

I think it'd be more effective if every single American got a return on their taxes/didn't pay taxes for every day it's shut down.

Or, ya know, both. We could do both.

The more conversations I have with people about politics, the more I realize I don't really relate to either liberals or conservatives. Conversations with both leave me exhausted and frustrated.

People without loyalty to either/any party though? I can hang with those people.

The hardest part of living in the U.S. right now is repressing the constant, frenzied urge to REACT.

Is there even a way to diffuse this many escalations piled up on one another? The U.S. is a literal mass of feral anger to the point that I find myself disgusted by both Liberal and Conservative.

Evers is retiring and I need to know who is going to run for governor like....yesterday. 👀

Any other Americans feel like they're in a toxic relationship with the other half of the country and sick of being gaslit and just wanna finalize that divorce already?

Important PSA: America isn't defined by the president or a political party. It's defined by the people.

Someone I know just had a neighbor get his anti-Trump sidewalk chalk photographed and sent to the FBI by the local police.

Wtf.

Are there ANY Republican women in politics that aren't the absolute worst representation of women in politics?

I hate to use the term "pick-me girl" but some of them are like Republican pick-me girls and it's honestly embarrassing.

BREAKING: The Wisconsin Supreme Court struck down the state's abortion ban from 1849.

This is a win for abortion rights.

I have no objections to YA!

I'm (not surprisingly) in a mood for books where the people rise up against their oppressors...

Where my bookish recs at? 👀

Throw me in a high stress work environment with an outrageously unmeetable deadline: BET

Throw life tragedy after life tragedy at me: I WILL SURVIVE.

Republicans turn fake threats into real stories they motivate their base with and use to justify policy.

This is a real threat and Democrats need to do as much if not more to stop it.

The fact that so many rural Americans don't realize how they are the ones that will suffer the most from almost every single decision this regime makes continues to completely baffle me.

Medicaid cutbacks will affect unpaid family caregivers, experts warn • Wisconsin Examiner Proposed Medicaid cuts will affect family members and others who provide unpaid care for people who are elderly, ill or have disabilities.

Medicaid cutbacks will affect unpaid family caregivers, experts warn. @erikgunn.bsky.social reports from a presentation to social workers from advocates for people w/ #DevelopmentalDisabilities and for the elderly.

Have we ever had a president take the "running on a campaign of lies" saying THIS literally?

The way they BOTH gave you a face when you said "let's think about it" 😂

On Trump, police violence, and why 16th century French philosopher Etienne de la Boetie would have told you to STAND UP rather than avoid conflict with a bad leader:

Ffs 🤦🏼‍♀️ Your book is freaking precious. Those people are absolute idiots.

I know it's easy and satisfying to just read the article title/description and react, but I do think this was an interaction actually worth reading through.

WATCH: “Here’s the big scary LA protest — look: you don’t see the cops or the National guard here… are there any fires or chemical smoke? Wonder why that is.”

The people are peaceful. Law enforcement is doing the escalating. Intentionally. This has always been Trump’s plan.

Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio tried to give a press conference to announce his lawsuit against DOJ. Much to my surprise it turned out to be the greatest press conference of all-time.

A teacher breaks down after ICE causes multiple schools to lockdown during graduation ceremonies and parents to flee for their lives.

Only the soulless aren’t hurting from what is happening in our country. This is affecting all of us.

Has this been entertaining?

Yes.

But has it been mortifying and embarrassing?

Also yes.

But being mortified and embarrassed is the new norm for most Americans these days, so...
