Life is Soup, Sharron brought a Fork

Shout out to the top 5 kings in the world, Martin Luther, Larry, Don, Stephen and Americans don't have a motherfuckin'.

I have never been paid to protest.

I don’t need to be paid, I see it as my duty as an American citizen.

#Resist
#NoKings

Be there if you can.

*Note: we all fulfill our duty differently. Protesting is one of my ways.

Make it make sense. [Cartoon by Adam Zyglis]

But I was told trump was going to make things cheaper

Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

There’s a common feeling across the U.S. right now, a sense of helplessness. Many people want to do more but feel like they can’t. Remember: every action you take pushes the resistance forward.

Thune: "If I were a woman I'd be talking to my doctor and not taking advice from RFK"

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

Major news outlets are standing together and refusing to sign. ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC News have all rejected a new Pentagon policy that would impose unprecedented restrictions on news gathering.

It's day 13 of the shutdown. What's Trump doing?
 
Negotiating a budget deal? No.
 
Preventing premiums from doubling? No.
 
Stopping 15 million Americans from losing health care? No.
 
He's meeting the Pres. of Argentina to reward him with a $20 billion bailout.
 
America first?

Imagine if a woman president went off about every picture of herself she didn’t like. “Hysterical.” “Emotional.” “PMSing.” “Petty bitch.”

It’s amazing how all the reporting is just memory-holing this part

Solidarity is the only way

Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."

Remember what John Lewis told us, "Speak up, speak out, get in the way. Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and help redeem the soul of America."

Speaker Johnson couldn’t convince all the members of his own Republican caucus to cite for their own Republican budget so he’s out here pretending that Democrats should have done that work for Republicans, that *they* are to blame for *his* incompetence.

Yeah, good luck with that.

Being homophobic in 2025… to me that’s a clear indicator of mental illness

“We can give $20 billion to Argentina but we can’t afford the CDC’s measles experts” is a hell of an argument

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.
