On a national level, it's like we're living with our abusive spouse & can't escape. Their family is enabling them & blaming us for the abuse. They're destroying our home & finances.

This feels like a literal visual representation of what's happening to our government & country. Trump has moved in & has no intention of leaving. The Republicans let him do what he wants & the Democrats are powerless to stop him.

Indie director Barbara Marques has been kidnapped by ICE. She is legally married to a U.S. citizen & was at a green card mtg when she was abducted and prevented from seeing her lawyer. Her husband Tucker May does not know where she is. Please spread the word so he can find her /1

It shook me that white man at Fox News was allowed to say all homeless people should be killed. On live TV. I WAS homeless a decade ago. The isolation you experience after being cast off by people is why I refuse to speak to anyone who knew me back then. It’s unforgivable what the homeless endure

Just so I'm clear:

TV host says we should kill every homeless person? No big deal

TV host says the right must "go to war" with the left? Pfft.

TV host says the government is cracking down on critics? Well, the government cracks down on him for the criticism.

Free speech, everyone.

I just think if your definition of civility is about the volume and tone of speech and ignores the content of the speech you probably need to start over

People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who don’t toe a party line on what is “allowed” to be expressed. And employers are going along. It’s the new secret police

Duckworth: "Let's make it clear -- the President of the United States essentially just declared war on a major city in his own nation. This is not normal. This is not acceptable behavior."

Massie: I'm calling on my colleagues: be one of the next two who sponsors this discharge petition. I think it's shameful that this has been called a hoax. Hopefully today we can clear that up. This is not a hoax. This is real. There are real survivors.

Sing it.

Introduce some gun laws? Surely there would be nothing stopping that?

The redacted Epstein files is just a blank page titled: “Trust Us, Everyone You Suspect Is In Here.”

Every single museum in America needs to print out "Actually, slavery WAS that bad" and post it on their front door today.

Thou shalt not complain that Gavin Newsom’s imitation posts are “childish” when you’ve never had any criticism for Donald’s actual insane posts.

"You pee like a girl!" is such an uninspired kindergarten playground insult.

Kids today are learning that the fastest and easiest way to make money—the key value that has been modeled to them in America society—is to scam others, cheat your way through, and attract negative attention online that can be monetized. My endless sympathy to parents

If you’re wondering how ICE recruitment and training is going under Kristi Noem—South Park already nailed it.

We impeached a president for having consensual sex with a woman

But won’t impeach the president for having non-consensual sex with children

Multiple children

WTF is wrong with this country?

Opinion | They Saw Their Neighbors Taken Away by ICE. Then They Made a Plan.

"The way we view it is that you stop fascism, you stop authoritarianism by protecting those that are at the end of the whip,” he said. “If you want to protect democracy, you protect the most vulnerable. That’s what we want people from all walks of life to understand."

Let them eat cake.

I remember when this happened.

The entitled dude says, "Women don't want to talk about being sexually assaulted!"
Women say "Yah we do. We want justice."

It's not political to think people shouldn't be starved to death.

I initially thought this was a cleverly designed snarky pro-Mamdani ad. Affordable health care, homes for everyone, & funding for community programs over punitive policing? Sign me up!

Friends, Mamdani wants everyone to have a roof over their heads, civil/human rights for LGBTQIA people, & accessible health care that doesn’t bankrupt you. I know he's only available in NY right now, but can we get as president in 2028? Better yet, let's toss the current one & elect Mamdani now.
