Hey Mike Johnson, do we even have a House of Representatives any more? Reconvene. Swear in Adelita Grijalva. Now.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power. Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless. Remember this.

If your president has to be forced to take care of his people through court orders, he is not a president he is a tyrant.

Please join me in sending one message to the Dems: DO. NOOTTTTTTT. FUCKING. CAVE!!!! Don’t you fucking do it!! If they want government open, THEY have to bend and come to us, and not with some bullshit deal that lasts just until they get reelected. We have already suffered. DO NOT make it

The thing about Johnson not swearing in Grijalva is that’s it a test for 2026. If you think they will accept an outcome they don’t like, they will just Grijalva it. So what’s the plan when the GOP says “we ain’t leaving, fuck you, make us.” Because that IS what they are going to say.

The older I get, the more I see myself as a Humanist above all else. One lifetime. One shared, enclosed biosphere to protect and nurture for our progeny. Greed is the problem.

Republicans control: - The House - The Senate - The White House - The Supreme Court - Corporate Media and big tech social media platforms like TikTok and Twitter Why can't they open the government and help Americans? I thought they had the mandate, right?

Ahem

Every country has a powerful right wing that argue “if you tax the wealthy, they’ll leave” We need to start calling their bluff. We need to make it so the ultra wealthy either contribute enough to be a positive part of society, or be globally shunned and unable to extract further funds from us.

Watch this. Learn something. Stop letting history repeat and speak up for others before it is too late. #Resist #ProudBlue #Pinks

Friday’s giggle……

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

The same people who obsessed over a tan suit, a private email server, a boisterous laugh, and an autopen are strangely indifferent to the likelihood that their president raped children.

I think the destruction of the White House East Wing resonates because it is so viscerally permanent. But the ongoing destruction of Constitutional order and international law is no less permanent. There is no repair. We must build anew.

Health insurance costs jumped for workers & employers in 2025. This will get worse if the GOP refuses to extend ACA subsidies. Meanwhile, the seven largest health insurance companies made a combined $71B in profits in 2024. Still not sure we need Medicare for All?

Never mind every other single abominable or corrupt thing to this miserable moment, the extrajudicial and unevidenced execution of 34 human beings by the U.S. Navy on the orders of a U.S. President acting in peacetime is sufficient for his impeachment and conviction. If we were a republic, I mean.

This is very good

FYI :“Destruction of federal property is a federal crime. 18 U.S. Code § 1361 defines the crime as willfully injuring or committing any depredation against U.S. government property. If the damage exceeds $1k it is a felony with a fine, up to ten years in prison or both.” Awaiting law enforcement.

NEW: AZ AG Kris Mayes and Adelita Grijalva have filed suit asking the court to declare Grijalva a member of the House once she's sworn in, and if Johnson won't do it, to allow someone else to. www.abc15.com/news/state/a...

The tyrant tears the People's house down to raise a hall of mirrors. This is not a remodel, it’s an assault. The unmasking of a king. Our country is asleep while the echo of a republic bleeds out beneath the ballroom floor. These images should enrage every patriotic American.

IDK about you, but I'm pretty sure a US President who shares a video of himself as a KING literally shitting on his own citizens isn't fit for office.😢💩💩💩👑

I prefer political leaders who don’t shit on the American people.

No image has ever spoken so succinctly about the current situation in the US.

💙💛

That AI video of the president dumping manure on protesters broke something in me. These are citizens, not enemies. Mocking your own people for demanding better isn’t leadership — it’s cruelty. We don’t need kings. We need decency again.

This only keeps working for them if we only react and engage on their talking points. Democrats showing success create their own.

Swear Adelita Grijalva IN NOW! This is not OK! Take a listen! 👇🏼 #swearherin #pinks

Friends, I leave you with a bedtime story tonight. Technically it could probably be classified as a musical, too. Super catchy tune! Either way, enjoy! Have a good night y'all💜 #SheShed

No Kings Rally Trump Inauguration

Trump is not funny. He is not playing. He's not presidential. He's running from justice. Impeach him now.
