The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

This Trump/Mamdani fancy-fest has thrown me for a loop. I really wasn’t expecting that and I’m usually pretty good at expecting things.

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.

This isn’t controversial.

A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

Another day, another rash of blathering about how the Orange Menace is cooked because of Epstein. Sigh.
He. Is. Going. To. Get. Away. With. Everything.

If you think the current dust-up about the Epstein files is going to result in ANY action against Trump I got a bridge to sell you. I have zero confidence in the intelligence of America at large, or the “courage” of congressional Democrats.

If you think the swearing in of Grijalva is going to get the Epstein files released, well, I’ve got bad news for you.

I’ve just deleted my ActBlue account. I will not be donating until Schumer and his band of toadies are no longer in leadership. After decades of this crap, I just can’t do it anymore.

The reason people think the Democratic Party doesn't actually stand for anything is because it doesn't.

The next big March should be aimed at Dem leaders not the regime. We should let them know, loudly and in large numbers, that caving to the ghouls will result in swift primaries, and GOTV efforts to bounce whoever does. And Schumer needs to one and for all fuuuuuuuck off!

We’d better get the Epstein files after this.
November 10, 2025 at 4:58 PM
Why did I fucking know that Dems would cave? This is why people stop voting.

Ties are dumb. They’re constructive and serve no purpose. Why the fuck do people continue to wear them?

Today I’m feeling incredibly sad for the USA.

My rep. This is a red flag for me. We need to be fighting fire with fire. This is a dumb waste of time and resources and makes me wonder if this guy is really up to the task of doing whatever is necessary to save our democracy. Keep an eye on Jimmy, he might not be the fighter we need.
The Administration is pushing state legislatures to gerrymander their congressional districts. That is why I’m fighting for the Redistricting Reform Act to end partisan gerrymandering.

Actor Mandy Patinkin’s plea for Jews to consider how what Netanyahu’s Israeli government is doing to Gaza is not just harming Palestinians and killing kids — but also endangering Jews across the globe.

Some of my fellow Jews think a college kid wearing a kaffiyeh is a greater threat to their personal safety than an authoritarian government rounding up people to send to torture camps and the world's richest man who made a Nazi AI, and I'm really not sure what to say to them anymore.

The President—who uses antisemitic slurs—is building concentration camps and an enormous secret police force.

Ya know, maybe this is just because I’m Jewish, but I wish the political opposition and the media made a bigger deal about it!

I’m at the point where I believe most Americans are so stupid they don’t deserve to be saved from the country’s collapse. I hope it hurts.
