Ooooh. I like this challenge.

I actually don't feel discouraged. I feel super extra pissed off. I guess I'm still feeling our power from Tuesday's wins. I hope you are too. Let's use it!

Goddammit.

This is the message of a failed, feckless, and leaderless party. We need a party with backbone, and the only path to it is through a cleansing primary season. If your Dem is up for reelection, and you aren't damn sure they're fighting the fascists with everything they've got, primary the bastard.

Mrs. Betty Bowers is very wise.

Well we are not too weak. Recent Democratic leadership is too weak and too fucking old and rich.

I was thinking along the same lines, with the next protest, I mean. We can have Cheeto's face on signs, but at this point, I think Chuck's image needs to be there too.

This times eleventy billion.

"...at least until I'm gone, and then the Nuremberg Trials 2.0 begin."

My first thought: This is payback for Tuesday's clear repudiation of the corporate/centrist Dem by the voters. Pundits have been saying as moderate as Mikie and Abby are, they DID bring up affordability. The old guard Dems, they're pissed.

FI-NAL-LY I AM FINALLY BACK IN MY ACCOUNT. Good Lord in Heaven, thank you. Soooooooo frustrating when you can never get a HUMAN BEING to help.

This times eleventy billion.

As a lifelong artist, who is at least 3rd generation of artists, who birthed a 4th generation of artists, I concur.

lol

This.

Donald & MAGA know they aren’t winning the culture war nationally. And they are not happy about it.

Reposted for 2 reasons: 1) My late husband was a Rush guy, so to honor him. 2) They picked a chick drummer, akin to my beloved Franz Ferdinand--who kicked ASS in Madison this past Saturday!!--who now have their great chick drummer.

It fills my soul with glee.

Chicago is so much of a war zone that we just won best big city for the 9th year in a row.

ABSOLUTELY THIS #MedicareForAll

It may not be false bravado, but it is bravado nevertheless. The thing about right wing extremists, they truly have no understanding of history or psychology. So they may believe, on false data also known as BELIEFS, they are invincible.

I really don't like to body shame... But shouldn't people doing this sort of task be in good shape?

Was on Zoom call w Sen Patty Murray staff. She and Dems are determined and holding the line together. So pls call your Dem senator to thank and encourage them. Call your GOP senators and tell them to get it together. They look weak.

You know it has to be really, really, really extremely bad Republican disarray if even Politico admits it

It fills my soul with glee.

Instead of Amazon, small suggestions: buy ebooks from Bookshop.org and support your local bookstore, buy audio books from Libro.fm

Pritzker is right. They want to normalize troops in cities so they can steal every election just like Putin does.

We have to keep remembering over and over, like Deep Throat said about Nixon's men--who were Mensa guys compared to Cheeto's--"These guys aren't very smart."

Definitely can't let them win.

We'll have to have investigations after. Which is horrible to think of the innocent people being harmed now, but better late than never.

This.

This. I'm with Heather Cox Richardson, he's actually really weak, this is not a time for us to blink, this is time for us to push back even harder.

As usual, Jason Kander is exactly right.

So it's not just me, it's also God.

As a Chicagoan and as a human being, I am so looking forward to Nuremberg Trials 2.0 Meanwhile, if you see something, video it with your phone!

WTF WTF WTF

This

Yes and yes.

And considering he's been credibly accused HIMSELF of sexual assault, it's extra despicable.

Well for a start...

Great question.

Is it just me, or would all normal child development experts and people who study psychology consider this...emotionally abusive?🤔

Dang, Jimmy Carter made those 1970s shorts look good. And W, I gotta admit, he looks good. NOBODY BEATS OBAMA😍 The fascist...looks like sh*t. Fascism is bad for the body.

I agreed with this myself a couple of days ago. Great minds think alike.

As a comedian and a writer myself, I'm not surprised. I think most of us are like John Oliver and his 4 words he said that are what's appropriate for dealing with bullies: FUCK YOU, MAKE ME

Total agree. And I lived through every excruciating day of the W years.
