Um, what vetting? It’s as if no one believes in it anymore.

This, unfortunately, is not understood by most people fighting fascism. It was super important not to let them get ahold of the federal administration, because it’s close to game over. I’m dismayed at all the β€œbut Gaza” voting that happened in the last election.

Thinking about lying Climate denial taught our leaders shamelessness

The GOP learned to lie--shamelessly and obviously--from three decades of climate denial.

I liked it. It’s how I think.

That’s how I’ve described you for years… one of the few voices who consistently makes sense to me

At least for the presidency, it’s not about what you identify as, it’s about choosing between two viable organizations. Until 3rd parties take a hold in congress voting for them for the presidency is not only only a spoiler, it’s also a setup for a failed administration.

I always vote, even if I don’t like any of the candidates. Because one of them is always worse.

Remember we would always see the β€œPatriot Front” jumping out of Uhauls, marching through towns? That stopped when ICE got started, I just can’t figure that out

THOUSANDS of men and women have died for this country because they were told they were DEFENDING DEMOCRACY.

The GOP members of congress will not even risk their jobs to save our country. Think about that. They risk nothing more than have to find another job after the next election.

Seems to me that ICE agents threading arrest to people following and watching them is a false equivalence when what those people are witnessing is those agents breaking windows and dragging people out of cars

"I'm not mad at you" as your last words on earth are really not all that far from "forgive them father for they know not what they do."

A lot of people avoid politics because it’s overwhelming and they don’t want to be hopelessly depressed. So they check out and then check back in when it’s time for a presidential election. This is how we got to where we are now. We won’t get out of it until this changes.

This fundamentally changes the purpose of a postmark. F’ed up. You used to be able to go to the post office and have a teller stamp your envelope to confirm the postmark date

What researchers have discovered about maternal, infant health under Texas' abortion laws In the more than four years since the state of Texas significantly restricted access to abortion, medical researchers have been studying the health effects of that policy change.

A growing body of research indicates that Texas's restrictive abortion bans have negatively impacted the health and lives of Texas women and babies in multiple ways. Across the board, pregnancy outcomes and complications have worsened.

How The White House and DOJ are responding to the Epstein Files released IS evidence of Trump's guilt.

As someone aptly pointed-out on another platform: the Epstein files aren't filled with trans people. They're filled with wealthy, straight, white, cisgender men.

Have no idea if this is true or not. But if so, not a surprise, but the delusion is supremely dangerous

I'm old enough to remember when Republicans said they HAD to impeach President Clinton, because he set the example for the rest of the country.
Yeah, now about Trump...
