I’ll never ever believe that Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris lost their elections and Jack Smith’s damning testimony only helps to cement that for me.

Black women are the backbone of our communities & the soul of our history. This powerful installation at the Obama Presidential Center will honor Black women as the queens they are, celebrating their beauty, strength, and lasting impact on our nation. Their stories deserve to be seen and revered.

A Charlie K statue on a college campus….the dude who famously dropped out of college and went to colleges to tell kids it was a waste of time… makes total sense
The utter perversion of the #BrokenTimes' both-sidesing compulsion: Here it equates the right-wing ruin of New College with (checks notes) liberal (in any sense of the word) education, which it dismisses as just another "ideological bubble." Just fuck off.

God damn you, America. God damn you for not coming out enough to make her the president.

This is what presidential looks/sounds like, and it matters how one responds to these things, sets the course of behavior from the rest of the country.

Sigh. Why do I fucking bother.

James Talarico: Trump is gerrymandering Texas because his policies are unpopular. They’re kicking millions off their health care to fund tax breaks for billionaires. So they're trying to rig the results of the next election. We cannot allow this to become normal

Elon Musk is about to become the first trillionaire.

The reason poverty exists in the wealthiest country on earth isn't because we can't feed the poor — it's because we can't satisfy the rich.

We should tax trillionaires out of existence.

Costco isn’t altruistic, it’s strategic.

Their wages, benefits, and retention beat other big box stores because the membership model doesn’t rely on squeezing workers or suppliers.

Costco proves capitalism is less predatory but just like our four year elections, it all depends on who’s in charge.👇
