Really wish people could just get therapy and discuss and overcome their childhood trauma versus predating on children and others to fill the emptiness within them.

The centrists in the Senate Democratic caucus saw that the country was rallying to the party in the 2025 elections and resolved that they would do anything they could to kill that momentum.

I think it’s true we are all in crisis but in different ways and some is gender driven. I also believe we feel the climate crisis in every cell of our body and that is creating a crisis for us all at some level.

This is great. Now we just need a hundred other Dem politicians to speak this bluntly.

There is an argument that once certain dominoes have fallen it is correct for a person to abandon their country of origin to join the team to beat their fascist homeland as Einstein and others did. That time is distinctly not now. Now is the time to fight and #resist
I have said privately that while I don’t necessarily begrudge anybody who chooses to leave the US, but A. That is tremendously privileged and b. I do think we have to be very skeptical about giving them roles in the country once we defeat fascism simply because they didnt stand and fight
Sick story dude. I mean a Muslim democratic socialist just became mayor of NYC but I'm sure they were totally gonna make second rate Yale philosophy professors the number one target. Truly the most persecuted amongst us.

Every election is a swing from one side to the next in the voters desperation to find a party or a person who’s against corruption and will root it out.
basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Respectfully, leaders are able to lead without their subjects being afraid of death or worse unless they agree with Dear Leader.
Trump on Xi and Putin: "They're both very strong leaders. These are people not to be toyed with. These are people you have to take very serious. They're not walking in saying, 'Oh, isn't it a beautiful day?' These are serious people. These are people that are tough, smart, leaders."

All of this is true enough as far as it goes. But even more problematic is the fact that when the U.S. Coast Guard interdicts suspect vessels, boarding and searching for drugs, a quarter of the time they find no contraband.

We're not just murdering drug smugglers.
We are murdering innocent people.
Rep. Adam Smith: "This country has not agreed to have the death penalty for drug smuggling. If we want to have that policy conversation, we can have that policy conversation, but the president has unilaterally decided that lethal force is going to be applied. It's an enormous expansion of power."

I will question the #espn announcer. If there’s a lane violation by other team on first free throw then plan to give the other team the ball is unfair. If however the plan is to allow both free throws then possession it can make sense. #nba #loveit

How have the Dems nor even #nokings not seized their momentum and said: we are against corruption in all its forms. Let’s fix it.

No Kings #nokings should now make demands clear with all who showed up and the 1000s who honked along with us. Respectfully, it is easy:

1. Against all corruption
2. Revoke citizens united decision
3. We will vote for only those who accept transparent and non corrupt donations

He is using the system against itself and wish more journalists would report on the facts of what is occurring
I think at this point it’s fair to say that we’re no longer under the rule of law.

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that.

No phones, no staff, nothing.

I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!
Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)
