You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million.

That is a lie.

The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

Another masterful water drop from Canadian aerial firefighters in California.

Thank you, Canada!

If a church doesn’t have a food pantry or a soup kitchen or a closet full of clothes and blankets open to the public or isn’t showing up at natural disasters to help, why does that church have a tax-exempt status?

It’s been 4,383 days since Sandy Hook. Is it time to talk about guns yet?

There’s a lesson there.

I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it a thousand times more: We are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian. — Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.

Republicans are finding out in real time how bad Donald Trump is for even their businesses.

I have truly no empathy for them.

The same people who cry about the economy are all too happy to buy Melania Trump's $90 tacky Christmas ornaments.

It's an endless grift they lap up.

Nancy Mace is a hateful bigot who calls herself a Christian.

Vile woman.

There is no common ground with Republicans.

Their president-elect is a convicted felon & rapist who openly seeks revenge, gathers like-minded people around him, and wants to stay in power forever.

We don’t need quiet politeness. We need angry, loud, and visible Democrats.

Every. Damn. Day.

There’s no such thing as working productively with MAGA nihilists like Elon, Vivek and RFK, Jr. They want to bring down our Republic. Don’t normalize them by pointing out a few of their good ideas.

You can’t play nice with the leopards. Let them into your house and they will eat your face.

Kavanaugh should never have been confirmed either.

If you’re afraid that books might change someone’s thinking, you’re not afraid of books, you’re afraid of thinking.

There is an increasing number of MAGA accounts on this app.

Two thoughts.

First, it is clear that Bluesky is the future.

Second, let's band together and keep this positive energy going, no matter who joins.

BREAKING: The Biden-Harris Administration has announced a new rule that would require Medicare and Medicaid to cover weight loss drugs like Ozempic to treat obesity.

This is HUGE news.

Slow. Clap.

This needs to be said, loud, and often.
