Let me tell you what the upshot is from the now-dropped Georgia January 6 case: A rich white man can with impunity plot to overthrow our government with 18 co-defendants—in a plot with a death toll—if a Black woman involved in the investigation had inadvisable sex. *That* is how racist America is.

the biggest lesson from the emails today is that powerful people are so unafraid of consequences for crimes as bad as “raping children” that they will just talk about it openly in emails the only path to a better society is one where that is no longer true

But what alarms me in all this is how the girls who were victimized by these men are largely forgotten. I want us to find ways of centering them in the discourse.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Never forget who sold us out: Hassan King Cortez-Masto Shaheen Kaine Fetterman Durbin Rosen

Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania Sen. Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia Sen. Angus King of Maine Sen. Jacky Rosen of Nevada Sen. Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire

The centrists in the Senate Democratic caucus saw that the country was rallying to the party in the 2025 elections and resolved that they would do anything they could to kill that momentum.

It shows Schumer no longer has the caucus.

Christian nationalists fought for decades to overturn Roe… and they did it. We need to bring that kind of energy for good progressive policies. No matter what the current circumstances look like. Keep fighting.

Yes, an important test for the midterms.

This whole EBT situation just shows how inhumane some of you are. No way you find joy in folks not being able to afford food. There’s just no way…

Merkley: "What we've seen is that democracies no longer die bc men w/guns go in and take it over. Instead, it's electeds who erode the separation of power. If you have a rubber-stamp Congress & courts that deliver more power to the executive, suddenly you have an authoritarian state. It's here now."

The same people who lost their minds over renovations to Cracker Barrel are totally fine with the White House getting bulldozed

Google appears to have blocked AI search results for the query “does trump show signs of dementia” as well as other questions about his mental acuity, even though it will show AI results for similar searches about other presidents.

When I was placed on the Professor Watchlist in 2021, people sent death threats about my children. I had security officers monitor my 8yo at school. Where is all the outrage for those of us who have been targeted for years? Where is the outrage for our families? My own colleagues are silent.

You do not in fact have to praise the guy who said homeless people should be murdered with lethal injections and then apologized four days later to save his job. Let's get a grip here.

Everyday gun violence…

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

The United States is no longer a free nation.

The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.

Wake. Up.

the harsh realization that every single administration hire is one of the shittiest unqualified mediocre people in the world

You think we weren’t prepared for the last pandemic ….

We are in very dark times. It’ll take an entire political/social movement, an overwhelming rebuke at the polls, and a new vision of governance to unstick this country from whatever this collapse is.

If you aren’t uncomfortable learning our country’s history, you are learning propaganda.

Trump wants to get rid of mail-in ballots so he can intimidate voters with federal troops stationed at the polling stations. Hard to scare people who can just quietly mail in their votes. Protect mail-in voting at all cost.

MORE OF THIS FROM EVERYBODY!!!

🇫🇷🇺🇦

I need you to understand that if you heard a song you liked in the 80s, you couldn’t Shazam it. You couldn’t Google the lyrics. You had to sing it to the guy at Tower Records.

Are we all in agreement yet that it wasn't the carbon tax jacking up the cost of everything??? It's been corporate greed from the beginning folks.

Reporter: What’s going on with those posts on X that are clearly trolling the president? Newsom: I hope it’s a wake up call for the president. I’m just following his example. If you have issues with what I’m putting out, you sure as hell should have concerns with what he’s putting out

The only way to stop them is this kind of public response.

Spending weeks debating whether or not the guy for whom attempting to appoint a convicted sex trafficker as attorney general is like #34 most publicly guilty things he’s ever done is engaging in a coverup.

Target meeting with Al Sharpton, the CBC, Keith Lee, Tabitha Brown, Reesa Teesa, and checking in with J Prince but has yet to try reinstating it's DEI policies and bringing back the Black businesses they cut from their vendor lists. The very definition of playing in our faces.

Remember, if a post does not apply to you, you have to reply to let the person who posted it know.

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.

Younger people will be shocked to hear this, but way back when I grew up, anytime you saw a movie where some government official stopped someone on the street and demanded to see their identification papers, that was supposed to let you know they were the *bad* guys.
