Everything happening in the U.S. now is easier to understand when you stop thinking a political party took power and realize instead that an organized crime ring did.

Hahaha so true‼️🤣🤗🫠🤦🏻‍♀️🤪

I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.

losing ranchers as a republican is fucking WILD

My feelings, exactly.

Yes indeed!

My husband’s ballot came in the mail. Mine did not. I looked into why and… I was purged from the voting roll. PLEASE CONFIRM YOUR VOTER REGISTRATION.

Important: Sen Chris Murphy just sent pointed questions to Kristi Noem about DHS's account of shooting of US citizen by Trump's paramilitary forces in Chicago. The official line is imploding. Murphy wants Noem to explain why DHS misled. More like this, Ds. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/2019...

We’re just days away from #NoKings Day and the world is about to roar. Over 2,500 protests in all 50 states. One message: we will not kneel to wannabe kings. October 18 will be the largest day of peaceful defiance in American history, because when tyranny rises, courage catches fire.

This is brilliant!

after millions of views and shares of my Portland Frog art. (thank you all🙏🏾) I got requests to highlight priests, and chickens, and Chicagoans, and T-Rexes, and more… all of us who refuse to bend the knee. so this is for US. 𝚂𝚝𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚃𝚊𝚕𝚕. 𝚆𝚎 𝚆𝚒𝚕𝚕 𝚆𝚒𝚗.

A great read!

BREAKING In a new video, Dolly Parton, the Queen of America, says she’s going to be ok.

The picture of the First Presbyterian Church of Chicago pastor being pepper sprayed by a masked ICE agent reminded me of civil rights protestors in Birmingham being sprayed with high-pressure water hoses in the 60s. It was wrong then, it's wrong now. How are we letting this happen?

Your Prime Day reminder that Amazon... -Provides cloud services that help fuel ICE's deportation machine -Donated $1 million to Trump's inauguration fund -Scrapped plans to display tariff costs after pressure from Trump -Shelled out $40M for a documentary about Melania Trump

@lastweektonight.com FYI - Ronald Reagan was not the originator of the quote about “the inside of a man.” It is attributed to Winston Churchill.

Keep taking videos of what ICE is doing. @govpritzker.illinois.gov is right, document what’s happening. This is why they hate journalists so much.

Somewhere in America, a young Hispanic girl is hiding in an attic writing a diary.

New in PN: Lessons from a Red Scare "As Emma Goldman hoped, and Louis Post later demonstrated, the American people are capable of turning the tide against repression — even if that effort feels hopeless in the moment."

I am back to rooting for the comet.

People who have seats right behind the plate and never look up from their phone should be dragged out of the ballpark and banned for life.

I think it's a good idea to put all the people who could organize and pull off a coup in the same room and call them pussies and tell them to murder US citizens.

Mass shootings aren’t random tragedies anymore, they’re policy choices.

In a world without Republicans, healthcare is free, Wi-Fi is faster than light, and brunch never ends.

When you give yourself a Department of War, soon enough you are going to find a war to fight.

What a weird-ass Rapture. Only the Constitution disappeared.

I literally spent 10 min translating Lula’s speech about Palestine to English. I just need every single one of my gringo friends to listen to this man in order to maybe restore their faith in politics. This right here is a politician. This is why we voted for him. And personally, I’ll do it again.

Tried to get my real ID. I had my license, my SS card and my birth certificate. I was not allowed to get my real ID because my birth name is different than my married name. Now I have to go dig up a marriage certificate. You know who wouldn’t have to do this? A man. Never change your last name.

If you’re wondering why the oligarchs propping up a regime would put so much effort into dividing citizens into a zero-sum set of factions, their freedom to engage in rank corruption and profiteering just might have something to do with it. newrepublic.com/article/2005...

Today in Gloucester, MA. Waiting for Rep.Moulton to speak.

Oh my god lol This Dutch late night host absolutely eviscerates Trump and Disney- you gotta watch how

Exactly this

WGA Statement on ABC’s Decision to Pull Jimmy Kimmel Live!

Hate speech is now just speech that Trump hates.

If you ask me, they can no longer call themselves the American Broadcasting Company.

You should not be in politics or elected office if your fear of losing office for doing the right thing overshadows doing the right thing. It's that simple.

Someone told me they don’t bother masking their child at the grocery store because "they don’t wear one in school anyway" Schools are incinerators that fuel infections out into the community. The elderly, the high-risk, they shop too. Masking in public spaces helps break that chain ⛓️‍💥

How it feels every damn day in this rapidly decaying husk of a country

If this became a weekly series, it would run longer than The Simpsons.
