My mother's Christian Nationalist church just built another giant building during a food crisis in a county with an over 34% poverty rate. Tax these damn churches already.

I'm afraid we're gonna need to see Rep. Clay Higgins search history

I feel like George Takei doesn't catch enough shit for being one of the early contributors to for profit, social media brainrot posting. His Facebook page is criminal.

How can folks with any amount of intellect or empathy not detest these horror show Dems?
Raskin: We are a big tent. We must be a huge, vast tent. I say this is a party that’s got room for Marjorie Taylor Greene if she wants to come over.

It's been great seeing all the explicit misogyny and homophobia of the Clinton years come back full force over the last 24 hours

I know folks are all excited about Trump sucking dick but I'm giddy that that monster Bill Clinton might finally get his dues.

The ACA is actually garbage and does need to go away but it needs to be replaced by full universal healthcare and the eradication of health insurance companies not whatever death spiral is actually happening.

I keep saying MAGA and Christian Nationalists do not care if their leaders are pedophiles and abusers. They will excuse it and justify it to preserve their power. It's not about hypocrisy, it's about control.
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

I have spent a significant amount of time in heavy international tourist locations over the last couple of months and any European that tells someone from the US we're bad tourists should be punched directly in the mouth.

There is no reforming the Democratic Party. We must do better. People's lives literally depend on it. Abandon the Dems like they've abandoned the people.
Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

Getting rid of Chuck Schumer won't make the Dems better. Schumer reflects the primary value of the DNC, capital. So even if he's gone the party will continue to be corporate and self interest driven.

What is happening in the Senate tonight is a travesty and betrayal for every person who depends on ACA subsidies.

The problem with the Democrats isn't about a handful of bad apples. It's about a corrupt, corporate party. They are rotten to the core. Remove one and another one will pop back into line to take their conservative place. Throw the baby out with the bathwater.

I'm at a theme park in Florida and when I asked about accessibility accommodations the guest services people were so incredibly shitty. People have invisible (although you can see mine if you know what to look for) disabilities you shithead.

That video of the man having a seizure while holding a baby and being assaulted by a federal ghoul has absolutely wrecked me. It's horrifying and vile what is happening and makes me think about how debilitating and deadly this regime is for disabled people especially disabled immigrants.

I think they'll use Erika Kirk to make JD Vance more likeable and as a tool to convince us he's fully heterosexual so the MAGA base won't immediately turn on him when takes the presidency. Except Peter Thiel, people really hate that guy.

Do we think Trump moved all the emergency SNAP money to his bank account when no one was looking?
I’ve never seen an American elected official fight so hard to starve people.

The reason why Mamdani rallied so many people, especially young people and Leftists, is because of his policies. That's it. Yes he is charming. Yes he has great PR. Yes he's a dude. But folks want leftist policies and your garbage Dems don't have them. It's quite simple.
