Rep. Jimmy Gomez just responded on Instagram Live—and he isn’t staying silent about Sen Alex Padilla being forcibly removed

When senators are treated like threats, it’s fascism.

Going forward, we must choose our battles wisely as MSM is not on our side. Don’t poke the bear.

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

Have a tissue handy.

@harvard.edu honoring Latin EGOT, Rita Moreno by having 2 international student artists performing for her is a beam of hope that somewhere, there’s still A PLACE FOR US.

What we’re watching this week is the President of the United States using his public office to personally enrich himself. He’s using the office we put him in to take bribes from foreign governments.

It’s everything our Founders feared. And we’re letting it all happen right before our eyes.

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents.

What the fuck are we doing here?

Fearless badass Congresswomen like Jasmine Crockett and AOC are the type of leaders the United States so desperately needs.

It's always wrong to vandalize personal property and that certainly includes Teslas, and also: your government is actively disappearing innocent people without due process, so, you know, that second one is taking up my empathetic bandwidth at the moment.

Have enjoyed Joy Reid's commentary over the years. Sad to see her termination. As for the felon, seems to have a problem with educated and articulate black professionals.

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

The increasing need for comfort food By Jamie Schler

My first piece for @contrariannews.org !

Self-care and time out is so important, but aren’t we all heading to the kitchen for soup and cake?

There’s a reason it’s called “comfort food”.

It’s pretty insane that a private citizen can come in, hijack federal government servers, fire people, and steal their PII.
