Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics"

The old rulebook is gone. It's not coming back and we all need to accept that. The DOJ is weaponized. the GOP is rigging elections. Trump is literally bulldozing the White House.

Democrats need to operate under this new reality, fight hard, and play by the same rules.

As an American with teens,living under whatever kind of government we have now, it is extremely disconcerting to hear them talk like this. Gtf away from my kids, creeper.
RFK Jr: "Today the average teenager in this country has 50% of the sperm count, 50% of the testosterone of a 65 year old man. Our girls are hitting puberty 6 years early ... our parents aren't having children."

When discussing how to handle the unhoused and mentally ill populations, Brian Kilmeade of Fox & Friends recommended to “just kill them” using “involuntary lethal injection.”

This is how the Trump regime and its propagandists can normalize and bring about the mass murder of vulnerable populations.

The Israeli uprooted 10,000 olive trees in al-Mughayyir during a three-day siege of the Palestinian village. The Israeli army said uprooting the trees was meant to "deter" village residents and make them "pay a heavy price."
