“Be as courageous as you can…if none of us is prepared to die for freedom, then all of us will die under tyranny.” Lesson 20

If you haven’t read the book, On Tyranny by Timothy Snyder, I highly recommend it. It’s a very quick read with great info.

When Massachusetts passed a "millionaires tax" in 2023, conservatives claimed the rich would flee.

But two years later, they haven't — and MA has collected $5.7B for infrastructure and public education.

A reminder that positive change can still happen at the state level.

I truly hope that this means people actually care about women and not that they are just pawns in “getting Trump”.

We survivors get caught in the loop of waiting for that disappointment because it happens time and again. Praying that this time is different and they get justice

Because he’s so narcissistic, he can’t see that we don’t care if there are Dems involved. Anyone who took part in this deserves what they get
The incoherent ranting and raging of a scared little man who knows that his life as a sexual predator of underaged girls is on the brink of being uncovered for the world to see, and there's absolutely nothing he can do about it.

Still thinking about this story. Imagine how cooked your brain has to be on Fox News -- how terrified you have to be, every day in your isolated suburban castle -- to start *shooting* when you see brown people at your door, before the door is even open. We're such a nation of terrified cowards.

The shooting victim died from a gunshot wound to the head, the coroner's office said.

Never before in living memory has it been as urgent for America to have a strong opposition party. Which is why it’s so important for Democrats to take the steps I lay out in this video.

And if there are Democrats who won’t — we need to replace them with those who will.

The Cincinnati Children's hospital Pastor speaks after being detained for 73 days by ICE and he is a legal U.S citizen & they knew it when they took him & they've known it for all 73 days!

Do Senate Democrats really believe that Americans will hurt any less when the government is reopened and Trump and his sycophants can hack away at whatever programs they dislike?

I’m sick and tired of privileged whites posting their frustrations about things. Most don’t truly understand the struggle because they haven’t had to deal with discrimination and racism POC have had to face their entire lives

What did these 8 traitors get for caving? They are so weak. But I’m sure that they got something out of this for betraying us!

The following senators vote yes…Shaheen, King, Hassan, Durbin, Kaine, Cortez-Masto, Rosen, Fetterman

These traitors have betrayed us. This is absolutely unforgivable

Any dem who votes to end the shutdown is an embarrassment. For them to cave and betray the working class is unforgivable. When we need them the most, they have abandoned us and are bending the knee.

Fuck them all!!!

If Schumer was an effective leader, he would be able to keep dem senators together. The fact that there are some who are breaking with the group to vote to end shutdown is a failure of leadership. And those who vote with the GOP are spineless
