Things like this keep happening.

Well, well, well...

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 80th day out of the last 92. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Love this meme. So appropriate for this moment

A middle finger to erasure. More of this, please. Now do Black Lives Matter!

President Trump owns the shutdown. Let‘s make that clear. We can‘t talk about that enough.

In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government. She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her. So I confronted him.

They hate being ridiculed⤵️

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

Just another rare moment of me agreeing again with POTUS

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

Many of us were notified that we lost SNAP benefits today. It may be temporary. For me, SNAP gave me some freedom to eat. As someone who is poor with a long history of eating disorders and economic insecurity it is slowly hitting. I’ve had SNAP for less than 6 months. It made my life a lot better.

It’s far from the most important thing, morally right now, or in terms of the human stakes, but the ballroom thing is really breaking my brain.

This is the clearest way to explain it.

Trump wants us, the taxpayers, to fork over a quarter of a billion dollars to soothe his fragile ego. Fuck him. And refund the federal tax money I’ve paid. No taxation without representation.

If North Carolina enacts this new map, it will be sued. I don't bluff and I usually win.

Both the U.S. marshal and the immigrant were shot by federal officers. You’d never know that from this headline.

Additionally…

“Frighteningly easy to sell new wars”

If you are in a constant state of worry like me about the future of our country, learn up on the election this year. Go vote in it. Feel good that you at least tried to do your part to make things better. There is an election every year!

Let’s flip some board seats this year. Please let there be enough for once.

Frogs in slowly heating water is a popular allegory for being unaware that you are being destroyed in an incrementally worsening situation. But I'm drawing hope from the past week that we frogs may be a bit more aware of our situation than those allegorical frogs. #Hop

I'm only an amateur political analyst but surely they're not just noticing this now? 🤔

It’s long past time for Speaker Johnson to do his job and swear in Arizona Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva. She won on September 23rd that’s 26 days ago.

Reckless.

Wow, all those protestors and no server problems on Grindr? And yet a Kirk memorial elicits all the closeted Republican Grindr community. No wonder: The LBGTQ+ community was free to be part of our protests. Maybe the closeted Republicans are hateful because they are closeted.

Consuming more information about the election in Texas. I hope you all are finding your peace. For some reason, watching this schoolboard candidate forum brings me peace. I am more than ready to vote. Hoping to hand these GOP school boarders an L. Fuck fascists. Maybe I can sleep now.

Ugly, dishonest, dangerous, divisive, and completely un-American. But a reminder that Christian Nationalism is a very real and growing threat to our nation.👇

This is insane. If Obama did this the GOP would impeach

Shubh Deepavali! Wishing everyone a very happy Diwali. Across our city, families are lighting diyas and celebrating the triumph of light over darkness and hope over despair. New York shines brighter tonight because of the people who bring their light and traditions home.

Real talk…

The destruction of the East Wing really bums me out in a way that I wasn't expecting. I guess some of it is about the destruction of history. But I think it's mostly about the feeling of helplessness. There's nothing we can do to stop him. Nobody is coming to save us. And it's going to get worse.
