I hate ethno-nationalism.

My family can trace their roots back to the 4th C AD Eoghanacht Loch Lein. They trace to Aengus, a Tuatha Dé Dannan god, who arrived with the Gaelic Celts 2,500y ago. I also have English, French, Italian & Viking roots. None of us is ethnically pure. It’s a nonsense.

Today they have crossed a deep red line.

We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Make today
Tiny Generosity Day.
Let someone in your lane.
Do the dishes when it’s not your turn.
Don’t talk during someone’s favorite show.
Find someone new online
and say something kind about their post.
Give a child some attention.
Give a dog a cookie.
(that last one)

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

Disappointed to see a CT representative not standing with his party. Dems need a unified front.

Incomprehensible how a 50 year celebration of a LIBRARY of all things gets fouled with MAGA bullshit.

European friends: Do not accept lectures on democracy & freedom of speech from an Administration that denies the 2020 election results and is now suing & intimidating news outlets whose reporting they don’t like.

Stand tall against right-wing extremism.

Democrats may shut down the government to keep Trump from gutting it. Republicans need Democratic votes to keep the government open past March 14. They could use this leverage to rein in Trump and Elon Musk’s power grab.
