My country has become a disgrace.
My President is a fascist dictator.
Trumpers voted for this insanity.
My people have lost their minds.
This isn’t America, it’s Trump’s fiefdom.
My heart is broken.
I am ashamed.

Burn CBS to the ground, Stephen. Anybody that coddles up to the biggest piece of shit in American history deserves to be roasted over the coals.
I hope Stephen continues to give 110% no fucks for the rest of his run. Fuck Trump, fuck ICE and fuck CBS.

Can we all just finally agree that whenever public officials suck up to rich people that nothing good ever comes out of it?
I’m so sick and tired of the delusional belief that rich people can do no wrong and government can do no right.
Only people that don’t know any rich people believe that.

I’m convinced that most Americans still have no clue how fundamentally broken and difficult our country’s future is going to be in the 21st century.
We’re still living with the collective belief that a new President will make everything better, but it won’t.
Republicans ruined our future.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

It should be painfully clear by now that “Republicans” don’t give a flying fuck about democracy in America. They’re so filled with hate and vitriol from decades of toxic bullshit from Fox News and other wackjob media outlets that they truly see other Americans as an enemy.
They ALL have to go.

Homeland Security shutdown grows more likely as Republicans rebuff Democrats' ICE demands

Yes they should.
Folks, don’t believe the horseshit indicating that Republicans are “scared”, or nervous, or anything of that ilk. We’ve all heard that before and every time it turned out to be wrong.
Fascism mustn’t just be defeated, it has to be destroyed. They won’t stop. Ever.
Neither should you.

They’re called “deplorables”.
And another thing. It is REALLY tedious to open a news page every day and see photograph after photograph of the same worst possible humans gurning back at me. It's like a wanker's yearbook.

Never thought I’d say this, but that guy in #Fallout that’s pretending to be a Knight in the Brotherhood of Steel is doing more fighting to make a better future for #America than Congressional #Democrats are right now.
And he’s in a fucking TV show. It’s all just so pathetic. 🤦

Here’s Donald Trump’s choice to replace Jerome Powell as Fed Chair.
He gave Trump the idea to buy Greenland and has known him since college.
These fucking incestuous Wall Street bozos. Sigh.

Does anyone else think that #NoKings marches should be happening every single weekend in every city, and every single day outside of the White House?
The fact they’re waiting until late March to have another one is ridiculous.
People are pissed TODAY. Harness that outrage and put it on display.
