It’s the same old same old. Republicans do a tantrum and break the dishes. The Democrats clean it up. It’s an abusive relationship.

Momentum builds for new leadership!
Now is the time to fight, not surrender. 🗣️
Schumer must step down from his post as minority leader and allow for new leadership to emerge—someone who is willing to consistently fight for the American people.

the one part of this awful video I found inspiring is the moment when the cam pans back and you see an array of upstanding Americans with their smartphones out filming these gutter thugs. that's really the symbol of the opposition. the smartphone and its embedded video cam.
Here’s a disturbing video from Evanston of a federal agent hitting a man on the ground as people yell that he can’t breathe.

In America, speaking freely is a bedrock right that matters deeply to us all. When pundits & politicians vilify people who stand up for their beliefs, I ask "Why?" Is this about safety...or control? It’s not about patriotism. You don’t defend democracy by silencing it. Speak up! #TruthBrigade

The timing of a justice’s retirement from the Supreme Court can affect the law for decades. That’s why it shouldn’t be up to them. bit.ly/3HUt0YN
Strategic Retirements Hurt the Supreme Court. Term Limits Would End Them.
Justices timing their exits to happen under a particular president undermines trust in judicial impartiality.
