Blue dot. Cats and chickens are my homies, allergic to both. Always making something with wool fabric and yarn. We fought off Fascism once, we can do it again.

In 2015 it was "lock her up." In 2016 it was "2nd amendment solutions." In 2017 it was telling cops "please don't be too nice." In 2018 "when the looting starts, the shooting starts." In 2019 it was "can't you just shoot them in the legs or something?" In 2020 it was "stand back and stand by."

A corrupt system is when you need 60 Senate votes to protect voting rights, universal healthcare, reproductive rights, climate justice, lgbtq rights, immigration justice, and a living wage—but only 51 votes to strip them all away. #BigScamBill

The left better start figuring out how to weaponize today's decision rather than just (rightfully) criticizing it.

- Go back into Judge Kaczmaryk's court to dissolve all of his nationwide orders.

- Pass gun bans and insist any order applies only to plaintiffs.

Netanyahu is using him.
Putin is using him.
The Heritage Foundation is using him.

He is the perfect tool for manipulating any world-wide evil result you may wish.

What better way to observe the end of slavery than a rich old white man yelling to work harder.

Prices are a bit high, so, you know, the antichrist seems like the best option to fix it.

We are angry, they are hateful. We are not the same.

We want to preserve and protect democracy, they want to destroy it and head into fascism, we are not the same.

The party of conservation no longer wants to conserve but destroy, we are not the same.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.

There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.

They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

Pretty incredible how the press amplified the “OMG EGGS ARE SO EXPENSIVE” narrative only to abandon it cold turkey post election.

This is how they’ve failed us—simply repeating the Right’s narratives without ever questioning the facts or motives.

Blocking Nazis, trolls, and fascists doesn’t make it an “echo chamber.” People need to stop gaslighting us into thinking we have to listen to Nazis and debate trolls in order to be informed.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Can't help but feel we're living through an increasingly existential war between spectacle and substance with spectacle winning battle after battle after battle.

All because ~250,000 more people in 3 states weren’t wiling to fill in a little oval on a piece of paper next to the smart black lady’s name.

We actually, then, frame issues that actually receive broad bipartisan support or opposition as merely about whether your side won or lost rather than informing on whether the impacts are things most Americans want or should be subjected to or voted for. The times are too serious for this failing.

We contribute to the polarization we cover because instead of using every moment of news to inform people of the nonpartisan impact of policies — millions will be thrown off health coverage for instance — we give people mere satisfaction or angst that their party won or lost the vote.

Last night's town hall with @votevets.org reminded me why conversations like this matter - and why a better future is still possible, but it's up to each of us to make it a reality.
