I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

The flew the entire military leadership in so they could see for themselves that the Secretary of Defense is a mouthbreathing dipshit and the Commander in Chief is a senile, weak old man who might keel over at any moment.

ICE held a 5-year-old girl, with autism, hostage yesterday in Leominster, MA. Used her as leverage to try and get her dad to give himself up.

ICE said that's not what they did. There's a video.

A sampling of texts from my overseas friends during Trump’s UN speech.

“OMG”

“Do you guys not hear the words coming out of his mouth? How can anyone not know he is deeply unwell?”

“LOL. What a sad mess”

“A proper nutter”

“I’m embarrassed for you. Hang in there”

Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell could not have sold children for sex without rich perverts buying children for sex. I feel like more people should mention that.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis

Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.

We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

I have written and deleted a lot of posts but I keep thinking about how the brutal assassination of Minnesota State senator Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their beloved dog Gilbert in June did not prompt this same level of calls for empathy, sympathy, and flags at half-mast.

People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who don’t toe a party line on what is “allowed” to be expressed. And employers are going along. It’s the new secret police

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

You know you’ve lost when you pretend to negotiate a ceasefire for a war that you instigated and wanted and then pretend to be angry that no one agrees to your fake ceasefire.

"Don't worry, the US President can't unilaterally declare war, he has to get approval from congress."

The USA hasn't formally declared war since 1941 and you're either naïve or stupid if you think the USA hasn't been at war at any time in the last 80 years...
