I know too many people without a conscience. It’s draining.

I am currently reading a book about the Battle of Blair Mountain, and the similarities to what is happening in our country currently is astounding.

When AOC and Adam Kinzinger are both furious at Chuck Schumer, for the exact same reason, maybe you need to give up the idea this is just a backlash coming from far left activists.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

CNN Anchor Wrecks Trump Defender in Brutal On-Air Shaming Over Jan. 6 As CNN’s Jim Acosta crucifies a MAGA lawmaker over Trump’s Jan. 6 pardons, a press critic reflects on why we don’t see more of thisβ€”and how this failing has enabled pro-Trump propaganda to succeed.

Smart take on my interview with Burchett on Jan. 6. We can’t let the truth about that day be destroyed. newrepublic.com/article/1905...

Shove the Presidency Down Trump’s Throat Liberals spent the president-elect’s first term trying and failing to kick him out of office. This time out, they need to turn the White House into a prison.

Trump thrives on drama, as does his cult.
This is a great article on what we need to focus on instead of engaging with the crazy.

This is the cowardice of The New York Times. Legacy media is failing.

Now Is the Time for Courage From Marc | I started Democracy Docket to be fearlessly independent and unapologetically pro-democracy.

Martin Luther King Jr. said that β€œthe ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge.” We are in a time of challenge.

The question for every leader, every citizen is where do you stand?

Because I’m always trying to find a positive in every situation-
One thing I can say that I thought was wonderful about the threat of the TikTok ban: I saw so much unity and support across the entire spectrum of peoples on the app. Hope is not dead.

I was fairly late to the TikTok game. I’ve only spent about 2 years on there. But in that time I found a community of some of the most awesome humans, people I never would have β€˜met’ otherwise. I’ve also learned so many interesting new things. I’m still holding out hope it will stay.

An adjudicated rapist and a convicted felon will be sworn in as president in 10 days. I’m embarrassed to live here.

He’s guilty of 34 counts of business fraud

He stole classified documents and led a conspiracy to obstruct the retrieval of them

He pressured elections officials in Georgia to overturn their election results

He tried to overthrow an American election

And he won't face consequences for ANY of that

General Electric made $7 Billion in profit in
2023.

Guess how much in federal taxes they paid?

In fact, they got a REFUND of $420 Million.

Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who finds it disgraceful that nobody voted for the foreign born billionaire asshole, but he has thoroughly snatched the presidency from weak ass, feeble-minded puppet trump.

He's a PINO: President in Name Only.
