How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

Just imagining the meeting where they must have been like “they might cancel my flight? Time to kill the sick.”

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

Nazism has officially taken over the GOP.

Having your Alexa play ‘Hostile Government Takeover’ by A Gift From Todd and Vinny Markey on repeat will make you feel better. Promise.

Self-care like a mother.

The man who got rich off of his family money, other’s inventions and hard work, and benefits from misery of those most vulnerable (what else can a dude who sees a cybertruck and goes “that seems like a thing to own” be but a needs-to-be-sheltered individual) calls *us* parasites. Excuse me. Leech.

ELON IS ALLOWED IN THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION. NOT YOUR ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES OR STUDENTS & PARENTS. I WILL BE BACK.

It is a *wild* ride reading Keith Boykin’s ‘Why Does Everything Have to Be About Race? 25 Arguments That Won’t Go Away’ in today’s political bomb cyclone of a deadly dumpster fire, but it’s worth it.

"How privileged are you if you first require hope in order to act? What about those where hope was a luxury they couldn't afford and still they wrote books, they made music, they sang. They keep singing."
