And I bet he was freaking out recently and someone calmed him down by telling him, “you’re the one sitting in the Oval Office.”

Isabel Wilkerson’s _Caste_ would say they ARE voting in their own interests: their overriding interest is white supremacy, whether they are conscious of that or not. They are voting with the candidates and party they see upholding that ideology.

Best 3 minutes you will spend on the internet today.

Recall when we had a president who was a decent human being? Seems so remote and novel now.

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

Very sorry. Lost my dad this way - 3 months.

What did people do before SNAP?”

They died.

Healthcare, vaccines, disability support, education & food assistance are vital to our survival.

They’re why the average lifespan isn’t 35 anymore

The mark of a good & decent society is whether it sees the value in helping others.

Our new health insurance premium feels more like a shakedown‼️

Thank you, @politicsgirl.bsky.social , for sharing your story. You’re right—there are millions like you.

Our new premium is over $3K/month for a family of three. Could we scrape it together? Maybe. Should we have to? No.

I’ve been wondering what Merrick Garland is thinking about these days.

What is keeping him from destroying the entire country?

Trump admin did what Bin Laden couldn’t.

I’ve been thinking about the Flight 93 passengers this week, who went down preventing the White House from destruction.

christ almighty what is this guy doing

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

Would love to see polling on this. This must be an action that everyone but the hardest MAGA rump deplores?

How has no one leaked the files yet?

How has no one leaked the files yet?

future grandchild: like shit, from an ass?

me in 30 years: Swear to God. Then he demolished the White House

This is America

If we don’t count COVID cases…

Do you mean when they let climate change rage?

Or when they let gun violence rage?

Or when they let COVID rage?

Or when they let fascism rage?

Silver lining: some of those things are not set to wipe out *billions*, exactly.

I hope there are still people around to ask and answer the questions.

Where does it end?

Life is short and the hour of our death is a mystery, so no, I will not rate my transaction

California Nurses Association has done studies on state funded universal healthcare. We should seriously consider it now.

True, and so actually in that sense it goes back further than 1776, to 1607 or whenever they landed at Jamestown.

I meant in my lifetime, 2000 was the turning point.

He should have been president. Everything goes back to the 2000 election.

"If you don't stand up and fight now, if you don't take a position now, it's going to be too late," Eric Holder tells Rachel Maddow. "The time is now to stand up and do all that we can to fight this administration."

Am I right, then, that this law disadvantages the women who took their husband’s name, but will not affect women who chose not to marry or married but kept their names (perhaps out of a feminist impulse) ?

I would have thought the feminist women would have been the first targets.
