I cannot emphasize enough that this administration shouldn’t get 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘷𝘰𝘵𝘦 from the Dems until they start obeying the law. Not. One. Optics matter: if you want people to turn out next election despite troops in the streets, then show them it matters. Do your goddamn jobs and hold the line.

Speaking of voices under attack…can we be just as loud about Black journalists and comedians who are silenced, even by our so-called liberal outlets. • Joy Reid • Don Lemon • Melissa Harris-Perry • Tiffany Cross • Jemele Hill • Marc Lamont Hill • Karen Attiah • Amber Ruffin

There's a reason they seem to be mostly targeting women to beat up, and we all know what it is.

Yep. This 👇

Is fatigue fatigue a thing?

Damn straight, Skippy.

This is Hollywood's McCarthy Moment. This is the litmus test. Learn from history. Who will step up and fight? Who will bend the knee and be complicit? History will remember.

Exactly this

I am having a hard time reconciling "Charlie Kirk was a fierce advocate of open dialogue and free expression" with "we must identify and persecute everyone who is insufficiently mournful"

Wow. This is so true 👇

Thank you to the originator of this idea👇 it's a great plan Please repost freely

Even with tariffs, I’d gladly import that Supreme Court from Brazil

You’re not obligated to manufacture compassion for someone who showed none in his lifetime. It’s not celebrating, it’s refusing to whitewash a legacy of division & cruelty. You don’t have to mourn an architect of violence. We can grieve the world he helped create without grieving him.

This is a Melissa Hortman appreciation account for the next 24 hours.

The problem with allowing guns everywhere is that no one is safe anywhere.

For everyone saying political violence has no place in this country… Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year. And America shrugged and moved on.

Oh my God. This, in your name, with your tax dollars

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.

Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:

This. So much f*ing this

So many adults have to fail a child before he ends up 10 years old telling CNN about the mass shooting he lived through this morning

Tell CBS what you think! www.cbs.com/showfeedback/

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

We don't pretend to be women. We just stop pretending to be men.

Boy, if only someone would have told Epstein everything was fake and a creation of Obama and the CIA and deep state, he wouldn’t have had to take his own life or have it taken by imaginary people

It's always this stupid. Always.

If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

I think that the outcome in the NY Mayoral race and the Wisconsin Supreme Court race both show that people power CAN beat the political money machine. That should give us all hope, and the motivation to work for the government we want.

A decade later I still don't understand how the response to stuff like this isn't "What the hell is wrong with you?"

Just so we're all clear: It's not a coincidence that the first senator they've used physical force against is Sen. Alex Padilla, a Latino man representing California.

I'm on my way to the Senate floor to talk about the assault on my colleague, Senator Alex Padilla. This is a horrifying moment in our nation’s history.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

Double.

We're walking right into it. No one appears to have any idea how to stop it. We know where it's headed. Martial law. The end of democracy. No more elections. A waking nightmare. I promise to amplify anyone offering legal, workable solutions. I haven't found any yet. And the left is leaderless.

sending love and solidarity to all comrades in Los Angeles standing up for themselves and their neighbors right now

the fact that people were told “today you are going to an elementary school to lie to teachers and kidnap kids” and didn’t immediately tell their bosses to go fuck themselves is all you need to know about why ICE should be dismantled

Would probably be a good idea if California @agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov did a quick video statement describing the legality/illegality of what is happening and the legal basis for the position the Gov. intends to take. Better than letting confusion build and folks hashing it out on social media.

They’re even turning the sandwiches GAY

This all started because people took it upon themselves to protect the powerless from the violence of illegitimate power. That's something, that matters, and it's the kind of selfless human virtue that will see us through.
