I can’t even find words for all this. Our “president” posts a cartoon of him dropping shit — literally, shit— on all of us. 7 million people turn out to protest the uncontrollable toddler in the White House and our so- called leaders collectively shrug and say, “Meh.”

“… appeared to be …” ??? C’mon, WaPo. It was 7 million strong!
So weird what happens when we show up for democracy en masses.

The average net worth of a health insurance CEO is $156 million. NO ONE should be getting that rich because we need to see a doctor.

Probably the same point as the did something about Mitch McConnell refusing to hold confirmation hearings on Obama’s Supreme Court pick for a year. No one has done a damn thing about any of this fascist coup.
It's been 22 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress.
Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in. At what point will political reporters start calling this a constitutional crisis?

20 years ago my younger son was diagnosed with colon cancer. He had no real access to health care and he died in 2008. Today my only surviving son was diagnosed with advanced colon cancer. Fuck.
