What I have to say will probably cause many people here to stop listening as soon as I say it, but let me say it, and then explain my reasons.
Must read.
From Liz Cheney:
Dear Democratic Party,
I need more from you.
You keep sending emails begging for $15, while we’re watching fascism consolidate power in real time.

Since Trump fired most of the National Park Service, the bears have to pick up the slack.

This man was courageous enough to stand up to Trump and Vance.

So it's important to post this message and photo to 27 million people.

Don't just "like" it -- that only means that YOU'VE seen it.

Postb it, blow it up and get it out there!

I’m the dairy farmer running in the special election to replace Elise Stefanik in New York’s 21st Congressional District.

Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help spread the word?

INSANE. These men, who refused to identify themselves, forcibly removed this citizen from her seat at a town meeting, placed her face down in the aisle and appeared to zip tie her hands, all while some man on the stage droned on as though nothing was happening...and some attendees cheered. 🤯
There's going to be news about a woman illegally detained and being forcely removed from a Coeur d'Alene Idaho Town Hall meeting taking place at the high school by men that would not identify themselves wearing plain clothes because she opposed the republican viewpoints.

This comment, seemingly reductive and glib, has teeth. Let's dare to take it to heart, Democrats.

Unreal. The US government is dumping Asian and African families and children in random countries that they have no connection to. Dumping, not "deporting." Deportation implies the return of a person to their home country. This is treating people like toxic waste.

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

I wish people would stop saying Hegseth said women in the military are less competent. What he said was they are a "distraction". Think about that.

A really interesting thread following a German newspaper's content at the beginning of 1933. I'm following him...I want to see how simple it was for Hitler to come to power.
Let’s talk a bit about what you, an average German newspaper reader in 1933, would have learned about Hitler’s rise to power. Let’s assume you read the “Vossische Zeitung”, a comparatively liberal middle-class newspaper. In modern times, the Berlin State Library library let’s you read it online: 1/
