This is one of those times when social media is important. I don't trust most major news organizations to do much with this photo, even though it speaks volumes about this moment in our nation's history. But the image going viral will get it seen, and might push news orgs to use and discuss it.

Disabled people are not “less than” We aren’t on a 24/7 vacation or “lucky” if we don’t have to work We didn’t choose to be sick It’s a punishing existence spent fighting to be treated like a person Fighting for healthcare, fighting for social supports, fighting for survival

These people were paid by Fox News to lie to their viewers convincingly. Now they are paid with OUR tax dollars to lie to us convincingly.

Have a Good Night Y'all. 😜

He is the saddest excuse for a human being on the planet.

They want us to forget January 6 & Epstein & now the Election

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @mluckovichajc)

Texas… it’s not just Grijalva…. #TrumpEpsteinFilesCoverUp

Trump is fighting as hard as he can to starve kids for negotiating leverage.

The SNAP contingency fund holds around $6 billion. Trump refuses to spend it on the American people. The same guy who just fast-tracked $40 billion to Argentina. Trump thinks Argentina deserves our money while he lets Americans starve.

Transgender people are < 1% of every population. It’s a classic fascist targeting of the MOST low-hanging fruit…folks the fewest “mainstream” people know personally - & made possible ONLY by algorithmic shenanigans by the far right.

WIN: An Arizona appeals court tossed a GOP-backed lawsuit pushing for full hand counts of ballots. The ruling reaffirms that Arizona’s elections will continue to rely on trusted and certified voting machines — not election denial conspiracies.

Has there ever been a weaker Speaker of the House than Mike Johnson, who just picks up the phone each day, says ‘yes sir’ a bunch of times, then hangs up and does what he’s told? Which is do nothing and lie constantly.

Clean sweep last night!… 🌊🌊🌊 Now, let’s finish this… swear her in! 👇👇

For almost four decades, Nancy Pelosi has served the American people and worked to make our country better. No one was more skilled at bringing people together and getting legislation passed – and I will always be grateful for her support of the Affordable Care Act.

“I think we should repeal the 19th Amendment because I love America and American women and want to protect our nation from their suicidal empathy,”—Arizona Pastor Dale Partridge. ‘Fuck Dale Partridge’—American Women. #Pinks #ProudBlue #StrongerTogether churchleaders.com/news/2208242...

After the Supreme Court overturned Roe, telehealth requests for medication abortion skyrocketed. For people in rural areas, telehealth is a lifeline that is safe, private, and effective. Thanks to Dem leadership and UW researchers, WA remains a place where your rights and your health come first.

Meghan Kelly.. I know, I can't stand her either. She said, "The candidates didn't have daddy there to get them over the finish line." All Maga think we are so stupid. Oh, Meghan, Daddy IS the reason the candidates tanked so disastrously. America knows he's destroying this Country. Numbers don't lie.

Eventually, ICE will come for me and you. 1/2

Its bad.... newrepublic.com/post/202813/...

Sandwich guy innocent.

When you desperately want to starve Americans:

The utter stupidity of pursuing a criminal trial against someone for throwing a sandwich that bounced off a bullet proof vest pissing away hundreds of thousands of dollars for this joke is the perfect encapsulation of this Administration.

Layoffs rise to recession-like levels in October. Best economy in the world. All he had to do was not fuck it up, and he fucked it up. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Thinking this level of inequality is unsustainable isn’t radical, thinking it isn’t is

How did we get to a point where I agree with Thomas Massie? Explain it to me like I'm 5.

Judge Orders USDA to Make Full SNAP Payments, Calls Trump’s Post Admission of ‘Intent to Defy’ Court Order

Trump to the Novo Nordisk CEO: “Maybe you should give us a piece of the company like I’ve been asking.” Now folks, this is what real commie shit looks like.

🚨Day 37 – Reckless Republican Shutdown🚨 The longest government shutdown in U.S. history is brought to you by Trump and his cowardly enablers in Congress. Federal workers are unpaid. Families are hurting. Benefits have been cut. This is not leadership. This is not humanity. #StayWoke #Pinks 🌸

Grassroots movements didn’t just inspire Nancy Pelosi—they fueled her. She never forgot that change starts in neighborhoods, not Capitol Hill. Her power came from listening to people, amplifying their stories, and turning their demands into law. #ThankYouNancy

“This is how you’re allowing them to treat the people taking care of our babies” We have heard privately from Republicans who are horrified by this one. She has papers. They went room to room in a daycare. This is both racial profiling, and terrorism.

So the Epstein vote isn't the only reason Mike Johnson should fear Rep. Yassamin Ansari. More of this, please.

When you're a sociopath and get angry that someone else's medical emergency, just four feet away, drew focus from your gloating and you forget which lie you were on.

MFer *is* the list at this point. Mar-A-Lago was a recruiting pool for Epstein's pedo ring. Why else was Trump so angry Jeffrey "stole" one of his underage workers? Johnson may be huffing the royal diaper right now but if 2025 went bad for the GOP, imagine 2026 after 12 more months of this.
