Found this from a comment on Daily Kos. It's field manual from WWII about sabotage tactics that us ordinary civilians can use against the regeime. Please share widely. www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/26184

Remember her name. Minnesota needs to fight to keep the investigation within the state and not let the FBI take it over. If it becomes a federal case, Trump can pardon the murderer. We are living in dark times. 😢

To anyone who thinks that replacing the Republicans in our Congress with Democrats will fix everything, I've got some bad news for you. Our government is so messed up that we need to update it completely. We need new Amendments to the Constitution, if not a new Constitution.

This tracks with how I feel about our government. We need to update our Constitution to close the loopholes that are being exploited. There is no honor anymore, so we can't assume elected officials will put country over party. www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

Here's to ending the year with a feel-good video. Thank you WeRateDogs for the compilation. 🙂

Whatever you celebrate this season, I hope it is happy. (And yes, I know the Solstice was on the 21st.)

🏆 on so many levels

THIS! ALL OF THIS! 😆

I know Rob Reiner and his wife are taking the spotlight on "Horrible Things That Happened This Weekend," but let's also pause and remember the not-so-famous people that lost their lives. The Brown University students and the people celebrating their cultural holiday in Australia. 😢

This.

The United States of America; the so-called "land of the free" where their "amazing and the bestest freedom and democracy" can't even give working class people free healthcare, free education, free housing, free clean drinking water, free transportation, or even free care for the elderly.

Why can't these "economists" crowing about the Black Friday "gains" understand that the reason more money was spent is because EVERYTHING COSTS MORE BECAUSE OF TARIFFS AND INFLATION? 🙄

Absolute irony in the morning. 😄 San Diego has an enclave that is very high income called La Jolla. They are holding a rally called People Over Billionaires. I can't even.

Since the Crash of 2008 I've been saying that we are being run by corporations and the rich. Those were the people responsible for burning our economy, yet Wall Street was bailed out while Main Street was ignored. It's time to focus on who our real enemies are - and it's not immigrants.

I don't trust MTG. I think she saw which way the right-wing winds were blowing and is getting ahead of it. Political performance art. As Jonathan Larsen (The F*cking News) stated: "We don’t have to elevate the least worst to hero status just because they get cast out by their cult of awfulness."

Oh wow. A select group of Democratic Senators, that notably aren't up for re-election in 2026, caved to Republicans. How very not surprising. 🙄 It's a good thing these people weren't around when we were originally fighting for our freedom in the 1770s.

My counter-argument to "money wins elections" people: Jerry Brown's re-election campaign on his second run as Governor of California in 2014 spent $0 in advertising. Nada. Nothing. And yet he was re-elected. Time to get the billionaires and SuperPACs out of our elections.

No, I don't have all the answers. But this would be a good start if/when Democrats win the House.

I like snark with my news, so I subscribe to Jonathan Larson's The F*cking News. Today's post had the best line about the destruction of the White House: Once completed, the changes could help Trump flip the property. To the Democrats.

Demolishing a historical building like the White House is against the law, as I understand it. While nothing can be done to Trump, thanks to our corrupt Supreme Court, why can't the contractor be arrested and his company shut down? There is no immunity there.

Let's make this happen...

I am overwhelmed by the support from people outside the US for the No Kings rally today. Despite our borders, flags, and cultures there is only one race on this planet: the Human Race.

I took the Ancestry DNA test and found out I was 1% Native American. Not much, but I can post these memes without feeling like a poser. 🙂 Happy Indigenous Peoples Day

To the American registered voters who stayed home in 2016 and 2024. THIS IS YOUR FAULT. Not showing up has consequences as well. Republicans vote. Always. Not showing up lets them win.

America is gone. Trump is sending troops to Portland, Oregon against American citizens. Here is a song that strongly reflects my feelings on our country. From the musical 1776, song starts at 01:55. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEoQ...

Thank you Jonathan Larsen of The F*cking News for giving me a new definition for The Right: "...right-leaning (or arguably right-falling-over)" 😄

The destruction of the World Trade Center in New York was horrifying, tragic, and emotional. But on 9/11 I choose the remember the heroism of ordinary Americans who willingly sacrificed themselves to the protect the nation. Not military. Not law enforcement. Just us. www.nps.gov/flni/learn/h...

New magnet for my car.

I am overwhelmed by the strength of the Epstein Assault Survivors for coming forward today and speaking out. What happened to them was horrendous and the cover-up since the 1990s is just evil. They deserve justice.

This.

Yes it's AI generated (CALIFRIA), but you get the intent. 😆😆😆

This. All of this. The Right's capitulation to this demented old man is frightening. They don't care about their constituents, just power.

This is uncomfortably accurate.

Tax the Rich. Then we can eat them afterwards.

Received my Advanced Reader Copy of Reckoning, the 4th book from the Songs of Chaos series by Michael R. Miller. I have read fantasy since the 1970s and I was so happy to find a writer who wasn't dishing the "same old, same old" stuff. The book goes on sale Sept 15.

So much this:

I didn't really have the heart to celebrate the US 4th of July. I put out my decorations and my garden flag I created, but we've lost so much over the years thanks to our lopsided Supreme Court. My "rah-rah" is "ruh-roh".

From 2012. Still true. youtu.be/fJh9t9h6Wn0?...

You're not free when: -you can't afford housing. -the rich pay less tax than you do. -you can't receive life-saving medical care because you're pregnant. -masked people can take you off the street in broad daylight. -a gun has more rights than you. -students can't study what they want in college.

"..feedom in America has not arrived for everyone all at once." From Gov Newsom's account. Truer words were never spoken. Happy Juneteenth.

True to form, my local paper had zero articles on our No King Protest, but at least the San Diego Union Tribune had an article. Over 2,000 showed up and I'm so proud of my city right now. 🙂

Live video of the riots in Los Angeles. 🙄 Eff you right-wing liars.

This. All of this.

Was cleaning out an old jewelry box and found this little Tacosaurus. Seems appropriate to wear these days. 🙂

Where are all the 2nd Amendment people who are supposed to save us from a tyrannical government? Isn't that why they bought all those guns? /s

Stop believing the myth the Republicans are good for the economy. W Bush left the 2008 disaster for Obama to clean up after Clinton had left a budget SURPLUS for W. In the year 2000 we had a balanced budget.
