The legislation the House and Senate Republicans just voted on will have your tax dollars go to corrupt politicians conspiring to overturn an election. The corruption is staggering. Your healthcare costs, household expenses, & ability to make ends meet go up while Republicans enrich themselves.

Can we just skip the next few years too and celebrate Christmas 2028?
I used to be a holiday purist and wouldn’t do Christmas stuff until after thanksgiving, but 2025 has been so freaking tough, that I am starting the joy early. Plus Medium Man still wanting to cuddle with mommy will make me do pretty much anything lol

Americans are enraged, and they want fighters: an opposition party that communicates that they share and understand that rage. The Senate Democrats showed Sunday that they still don’t get that, and it’s not clear that some of them ever will. trib.al/mZfi6Qw

What a beautiful funeral oration for the Democratic Party
The water filled my lungs, I screamed so loud
But no one heard a thing
Rain came pouring down
When I was drowning, that's when I could finally breathe
And by morning
Gone was any trace of you, I think I am finally clean

I’ve come to believe that we need to gather considerable forces and a campaign to demand the removal of face masks by ICE, Border Patrol, FBI and police.

Video on social media shows an immigration agent pulling a gun in Little Village and holding it to the side — which is not an appropriate or safe way to hold a gun. (Among other issues.)

Oh yes because John Roberts (wrongly decided) immunity decision of 2024 is the modern day Enabling Act of 1933!!

It took #Shitler only marginally longer to sideline congress! The #speaker has abdicated congress, even refusing to swear in a newly elected democrat!
Hitler was appointed - not elected - Chancellor in January 1933. The Enabling Act, allowing laws to be put in place without the legislature, was pushed through in March.

So, yeah, pretty much overnight.

After watching #Nuremberg I have concluded that history doesn’t repeat so much as it echoes! Then it was the race laws that excluded German Jews, today it’s the denial of birthright citizenship to exclude children of immigrants! Then it was the camps, today it’s the camps! I weep for us all!
