Good news—got my braces taken off today, after 1,356 days. Almost the same amount of time as an undergraduate degree, averaging 1,460 days.

Only insane people believe that threatening to take a friendly neighbor’s home and resources will be good for the relationship.
I almost think Canada should call his bluff. Because it seems to me, the "Fifty First State" will be the one to lead the revolution against him.
‘O Canada’: Trump Declares It Only ‘Makes Sense’ for U.S. to Absorb Neighbor as ‘Fifty First State’ After Announcing Steep New Tariffs
President Donald Trump ramped up his trade war with Canada Tuesday morning, arguing that it only "makes sense" for the U.S. to absorb its northern neighbor.

We who care about that our tax $$ are distributed fairly to promote the health, education and welfare of the American people are at the beginning of our battle with a presidency and a movement that would deny Americans of our funding priorities. Every town meeting, phone call, letter gets us closer

Now is a good time to replace democratic leadership. This is weak and pathetic.

Fuck this fascist Musk. And mock him relentlessly. Who the hell does he think he is? And why is Vice President Trump letting him do this?

Five things I did last week.
1. Took too much ketamine
2. Danced onstage with a chainsaw
3. Ignored my new baby momma
4. Laughed at my own jokes.
5. Neglected all of my children except for the one I use as a human shield.

Perfect response to someone in high office who nonetheless feels the world owes him fealty and bullies accordingly. What a sad,strange little man.
Mr Garcia, I have drafted an appropriate response for you. You're welcome.

Everyone has been traumatized. Everyone deserves compassion and opportunities to heal—even bullies like Musk and Trump. By choosing to demean the traumatized, they are denying and delaying their own need for self-improvement that all the money and power in the world cannot buy.
“I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath.
“I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.”
“I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.”
Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

While Musk plays pirate, there are consequences for actual human beings. My son was set to begin work for a youth job corps that specializes in teaching 18-24 year olds from diverse backgrounds to do conservation projects. He lost this opportunity, and the org is downsizing. #ShareYourStories

The takeover of the US by the worst people reminds me of middle school popularity contests. Hegseth’s the jock, Bondi the cheerleader, R.F.K. Jr. the sociopathic animal killer, Gabbard the sockhop queen runner up, Patel the creepy little toady.

Rep. Garcia is done with gentility in a decidedly non-genteel political arena. Democrats need to give as good as they get.
The best messaging is to state what everyone knows to be the truth in the simplest and clearest way possible.
So it’s hard to imagine more effective messaging than this.

When will people ever learn that you can’t make the truth go away?
Despite the Trump administration’s efforts, much of the deleted DOJ database can be found on the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine. And thousands of videos from the Jan. 6 riot live on ProPublica’s website and other places. 👇

Can anyone explain why this illegitimate, illegal action by Bessent, Musk and his droogs, the equivalent of letting the powerful grab us by the p*ssy, is not being vigorously countered?

Oregon Senator Ron Wyden is one of only a few electeds speaking up about the outrageous looting of the US Treasury, by unelected Elon Musk an his droogs, aided and abetted by the Teasury Sec., Scott Bessent. They need to be stopped.
Follow Senator Ron Wyden.
NEW: Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it.

The 75 million Americans who voted for Harris/Walz know right from wrong. Let’s lead with the truth to counter lies about who we are, where we’ve been and where we’re going.
There’s been a kind of…fashion of late to view anti-Trump libs as lame and cringe and just annoying, aesthetically. I remember this exact same aesthetic judgment in the run-up to the Iraq war. The earnest libs were right then and they’re right now.
