We can’t relax, we must resist. We can’t be placid, we must be powerful. We can’t back down, we must battle against their plans.
We can’t be fearful, we must be forceful - in huge numbers and without violence.

Recently took a peek at Twitter and the disinformation is getting substantially more dangerous. Someone could get killed.
The tactics of constantly repeating outright lies, targeting specific people, repurposing years-old footage and presenting them as new is getting to another level. It’s scary.

Many voted for Trump because they think women are chattel.👇
“For one Cabinet nominee to be accused of sexual impropriety may be regarded as misfortune. For two Cabinet nominees to be thus accused looks like carelessness,” Quinta Jurecic writes. “For four—well, that moves beyond carelessness into outright malice”:

Only an extremely unethical person steals classified & top secret documents… LOCK HIM UP!
The same Republicans who have made an absolute spectacle over which bathroom a transgender Congresswoman could use, completely ignored how the traitorous ex-president used one of his.

Ok, smart blue friends… Clue me in on what this image means. What does the number signify in the “R + ____ % ??
In these elections the Rs voted x % more than Dems? Or what?
Image might’ve been originally posted by Josh Levin , not positive. What is the source to verify these numbers?
