Working hard to save us. Working to solve climate change and our democracy. First major party transgender gubernatorial candidate. DEI is still good. I cry over injustice. Don't think for a second that makes me weak!

Isn't it interesting? The Republicans want to call a 14 y.o. an adult in the courts, meanwhile when one of their 30+ y.o. colleagues spews racist hate speech they say " it's just a bunch of kids in a group chat."

I posted the truth. The courts intervened.We must post the truth over and over to overcome MAGA lies. I suggest you read Maria Ressa's book, " How to Stand Up to a Dictator."

Thank God we still have the courts. It is clear what the motivation of the Trump administration is. Join your local resistance movement.

Political parties are not going to solve our problem. We need to take it to the streets, gold national strikes, and shut it down. We are living in an authoritarian dictatorship.

Politico caught view of a U.S. flag twisted into a swastika shape pinned to a cubicle wall in Ohio GOP Rep Dave Taylor’s office. But it's just Republicans "kids" who love Nazis, right JD Vance?

Vermont GOP leaders continue to distance themselves from first-year state senator as he issues apology over leaked group chatΒ  - VTDigger Sen. Sam Douglass has not resigned, but in a press release late Wednesday afternoon he said the comments attributed to him did not β€œrepresent my views or character."

VTDigger gives Sam Douglass credit for an apology. He did NOT apologize, at all. The only thing he "apologized" for was "that our county and state have been dragged into this." Not a word about his own conduct or his role in dragging our state into this.

I suggest you read Maria Ressa's book, How to Stand up to a Dictator. Ignoring it is the worst thing we can do.

The Pentagon will revoke the press passes of virtually every single major news outlet because they refused to sign a pledge that violates the freedom of press. Dictatorships know how important it is to control the press.

We needs the guys in white coats. Trump needs to be put in a safe place where he can be cared for. I would say a place where he can be visited by his loved ones, however I suspect there aren't any.

"The administration did not like that CDC data did not support their narrative, so they got rid of them. They didn’t like that CDC policy groups would not rubber stamp their unscientific ideas, so they got rid of them,”

I think our Governor should run for President. We need to pull the country back together again.

Poor Donnie. He wanted the peace price so much. I expect he will start a war with this assault on his vanity. Maria Machado from Venezuela is the winner.

The Nobel Peace Prize is intended for people who want peace more than they want prizes.
