It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

Where Is the Line?

On Ezra Klein, Ta-Nehisi Coates, and the struggle to define the boundaries of what is acceptable in America. If we can’t even agree to hold the line against Trumpism, democracy must perish.

“F—k them kids!” That’s what federal agents said about the half-naked children zip-tied together & dragged into the streets of Chicago in the dead of night Tuesday morning during one of Convicted Felon Trump’s raids.

Americans MUST speak up now to save this country.

Fuck those farmers. They voted for this. Why the fuck should we keep bailing them out? Forty years of Farm Aid & they still voting for these mother fuckers? Why? They’d rather suffer under a white man than share with a black one.
Neil Young brought it at Farm Aid. One of the greatest rock n rollers of all time.

Don't feel like doing a repost that puts the murder video on the timeline yet again but do feel like repeating the point that the president just straight-up assassinated 11 people for supposedly doing something that wouldn't be a death-penalty crime if they were caught and convicted

Despite his threats, Governor Abbott can’t remove lawmakers from office for protecting the right to vote.

I sent him a letter to remind him of what all Texans know: the Governor is not a king.

Trump and Vance demanding Republicans to vote down a bill banning stock trading is the perfect opportunity for Democrats to re-seize the issue.

Congressional stock trading is pure corruption—we should be the party that bans it once and for all.
