Never in my life will in comprehend why the Access Hollywood tape wasn’t the end for him. Almost 10 years of being deeply embarrassed for this country every day.

26!

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

“I Watched It Happen in Hungary. Now It’s Happening Here. After years watching Hungary suffocate under the weight of its democratic collapse…the real danger of a strongman isn’t his tactics; it’s how others, especially those with power, justify their acquiescence.” www.nytimes.com/2025/07/23/o...

The thing about the Epstein disgustingness that strikes me hardest is that hundreds of rich old men raped underage girls and the only person currently in jail for that vile behavior is a woman.

To our friends & allies across the globe who today stood in solidarity with those of us in the US who are angry, scared, & mortified: thank you for your grace, your light, & your empathy. Thank you for your support of those of us who aren't in the cult. We see you & are grateful.

Nice to see a glimmer of courage

In just two months, DOGE has —lost— the government an estimated half a trillion dollars. I propose that Musk pay it back personally.

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

Horrific.

Free speech!

A *ruckus*? What's next, revoking a student's visa for causing a brouhaha? a hullabaloo? an unauthorized hubbub?

Please don’t share this picture. Apparently the president hates it.

New Ad: The markets are as unstable as Trump is.

Yes. People who don’t want to do anything, constantly critiquing the actions of folks who are doing something. Sit in silence, then. Stop annoying us. We’re busy.

His brain is SO broken

If the legitimate press just permanently stopped attending these events and were replaced by propaganda outlets, that would be both optically clarifying and improve actual journalism.

Max Fisher: "Wielding the power of the state to intimidate news agencies against reporting on the government's illegal abuses of power is literal authoritarianism. I'm not speaking figuratively, I'm not calling it a warning sign. It's authoritarianism. It's here."

🚨 BREAKING: Illinois Governor JB Pritzker says he’s going to rename Lake Michigan to “Lake Illinois.” EPIC TRUMP TROLL!!! 🤣

hey quick question does Goliath win in that story

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired ➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen ➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded ➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees ➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years Making America Great Again!

HOW is this possible?

This is 🔥🔥🔥

This is fine. Everything’s fine.

So far it doesn’t appear the Trump admin is deporting any more people than Biden. They’re just meaner about it cuz of course

This is incredible and helpful and stunningly brave and you should read it

plutocracy - rule by the wealthy kleptocracy - rule by corrupt thieves kakistocracy - rule by the worst, least qualified But what if it's all 3 -- what's the word for that?

A poem for reflection, 01/20/24: "Let America Be America Again" by Langston Hughes. poets.org/poem/let-ame...

Can’t handle a swear word from a Democrat, but he’s fine with a Republican threatening to jail him? Tell me more about masculine energy?

My ignominious Senator 😡

Thanks a lot NYT 😡. Great timing

My message to Zuck

Donations to Biden's inaugural fund in 2021: Meta = $0 Tim Cook = $0 Sam Altman = $0 Google = $200,000 Amazon = $200,000 Donations to Trump's inaugural fund in 2025: Meta = $1,000,000 Tim Cook = $1,000,000 Sam Altman = $1,000,000 Google = $1,000,000 Amazon = $1,000,000 The oligarchy is here.

Maya Angelou, you see this everywhere

The combined net worth of America's twelve wealthiest people passed $2 trillion last year. 12 people. $2 trillion. Meanwhile, U.S. homelessness increased 18% in 2024. Our problem isn’t an issue of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding wealth inequality.

Hope begins in the dark, the stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. You wait and watch and work: you don’t give up.

Incredibly alarming

Yes, the cashier at Target should be able to afford rent, groceries, and bills with their paycheck alone. That’s what jobs are for.

I predict they’ll find a way to blame Democrats

"Repeat after me: there was no 'landslide'. There was no 'blowout'. There was no 'sweeping' mandate given to Trump by the electorate. The numbers don’t lie." My new Guardian op-ed on the new GOP election lie - and why it's important to rebut it! I brought (lots of) receipts:
