A yes on Laken Riley @markwarner.bsky.social ? Do better. Everything is a fight now. Stop helping them until they actually start making sense ad prove they can work in good faith. This bill is a disaster

Hey @kaine.senate.gov . Noem is a yes? Really? Expected better from you.

In case Congressional Dems haven't noticed, the game has changed. Your precious norms are no longer. The back alley has come to Congress. This is Jets-Sharks. Sand in the gears. We need you to fight! Stop fucking around and fight for us. @beyer.house.gov @kaine.senate.gov @markwarner.bsky.social

Here is something related. Those of us in a religion that has been co-opted by the MAGA movement have a very serious obligation to keep being the boy from The Emperor's New Clothes and pointing out what's wrong, over and over. "You're not supposed to hurt immigrants, it's a sin."
This is a brilliant idea, and if Democrats don’t do it, journalists should. Let’s think….

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

Please share & support her

Someone asked me why and I outlined all the things I appreciate about the Assassin Trilogy as an author, editor, English PhD, MFA-holder, poet, retired prof who taught lit.... I could've just posted this excerpt:
