Meiselas: This guy's a con artist. He's a fraud. He's quite literally a criminal. A felon. He lies. He destroys people's lives. He's a rug puller. 'Look, $23 trillion! Dividend checks are right around the corner! I'm gonna make you so rich!'

It is demented and it is manipulative and it is abusive.

It's a good thing President Obama killed Osama Bin Laden because otherwise Trump would be inviting him to the White House for some goddamn hors d'oeuvres

There is a murderer and a rapists in the White House.

Black-and-white portrait of Wilma Mankiller. She sits outdoors on a rough wooden bench against a weathered adobe wall, hands calmly clasped in her lap, gazing directly at the camera with a steady, resolute expression. Her dark hair is shoulder-length and slightly wavy; she wears a tailored blazer over a blouse, a long pleated skirt, and simple earrings. Scattered leaves on the ground. The image radiates quiet strength, deep connection to land and heritage, and the dignity of a trailblazing Native American woman leader.

Wilma Mankiller, the first woman elected to serve as Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation, was born #OTD in 1945.

Wasn’t it hilarious when Trump criticized the Saudi Prince for not wearing a suit…. Oh that was Zelensky, my bad.

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

Monday Night Football - The War and the Treaty’s performance of the national anthem tonight ranks high on my list of all time favorites

I love “Early Morning Rain”. A new interpretation by Joe Ely was just released, and it captures the beauty of that song so well

The world has lost a great storyteller

Try not to smile 😀

The Epstein coverup will go down as one of the greatest scandals and miscarriages of justice in U.S. history.

Everyone involved with Epstein’s victims or with the coverup needs to be prosecuted and go down in shame.

It does not matter if they are GOP or Dems!

Repost if you agree.

America's most notorious child rapist, Jeffrey Epstein, said this man was the worst person he'd ever met. Let that sink in.

This song stopped me in my tracks when I first heard it 30 years ago!

It still does

If that isn’t cool enough, here’s a video of Young walking through the park one day.

When he’s stopped by a fan and asked how to play “Cinnamon Girl”, he sits down, shows him the tuning, shares a laugh and continues on. 💕

townes van zandt’s If I Needed You…i can’t even think of a funny post to make about it i just need to flag for you all that that song is simply the most staggeringly gorgeous little thing

They are actively trying to murder us.
In some cases they've succeeded...

@kackbro.bsky.social This has to be shared!

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
