I have to give it to @benshapiro and @ezraklein for succinctly explaining the change in the character of the GOP over the past 10-15 years. It is honest, self-reflective, and articulate. It shows how crucial spaces like this are; we need to talk to each other, even more now.


At least these incompetent fuckers are consistent… People always ask why I didn't become a Dem after I left the GOP… *this* is why. Their unique ability to throw away all political momentum & screw their constituents is breathtaking. #shutdown #TrumpsHealthCareShutdown

The number of Americans with one million dollars for retirement is less than 2½%, according to the Federal Reserve’s 2022 Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF). So, for the vast majority of Americans, the answer on when to retire is simple: Never. 😮‍💨 That is a depressing statistic.

I hope everyone is planning to attend the nearest #NoKings rally tomorrow! I will be in downtown #Charlotte, passing out information cards on dealing with law enforcement, from nokings.org. Please keep it peaceful, but ensure the message is heard! #NoKingsDayOct18th

We live in the worst possible timeline.

The worst thing—amongst a sea of awful things—is that these ICE agents aren't even being paid! The person running this account ⬆️ isn't being paid! What is this for you people? A power trip? A hobby? A fetish? All of the above? Yeah, it's got to be all of the above. 😮‍💨😡

This is becoming a trope. Lately, it goes: 1. I see a post with some legal details that are either incomplete, misleading, or outright wrong. 2. I post a neutral, non-partisan reply clarifying it. 3. I get called a liberal for posting facts that contradict the dear leader.

Nice to see liberals being the victim again.🙄🙄🙄🙄



I try so hard to have a sense of humor—on social media and IRL. These hostile idiots in government are successfully smothering it out of me, slowly, a little each day. Free speech is under attack. Competent civil servants are under attack. Peaceful citizens are under attack. 😮‍💨


Our free speech President has issued an order banning flag burning. Executive Orders are not laws; they cannot overturn laws; they cannot supersede Court rulings. Texas v. Johnson (1989) & US v. Eichman (1990) protect flag burning as speech. whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/20…

Duh. The outrage that’s about to grip the right’s media ecosystem about this “liberal activist judge, giving noncitizens constitutional rights” baffles my mind. Are they so ignorant about our Constitution? No where does it say rights & protections only protects citizens.

Wait, we have what now? Is he talking about repealing the 13th Amendment? #trumpspeech #TrumpShutdown #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice


Food for thought.

So, the House Oversight Committee just released two unredacted segments from the #Epstein logs. I assume that @BillGates, @ElonMusk, @Bannons_WarRoom, and @ReidWeingartner would have no issues with testifying under oath to the Congressional committee, right? #EpsteinFiles
