Any sane person is missing Joe right now and wishing Kamala was our president.

If you’re in Philly, I highly recommend this amazing place!
During Ramadan, the only sounds at Manakeesh Cafe Bakery & Grill in West Philly are echoes from the kitchen, where pastry chef Rabab Mohamed begins her day making qatayif for the Muslims who arrive after the sun sets, when the daily fast ends. (1/3)

Hillary Clinton told you the truth about Trump and Putin. You didn't vote for her and she was right about everything.

Kamala Harris told you the truth about Trump and Putin. You didn't vote for her and she was right about everything.

I hope your misogyny was worth losing your democracy.

Accepting Executive Orders at face value is a form of compliance in advance. Those EOs are as real as meme coins. Nothing changes until it changes. Make them fight for every EO in court— flood the zone right back with long court battles. Don't hand them an easy win— don't comply in advance.

President-elect Donald Trump has promised mass deportations.

An immediate local target would be the 47,000 undocumented people in Philadelphia, part of 153,000 statewide.

I am grateful for 4 years of sanity; sensible, successful, and thoughtful policies; grown ups and professional appointees; and two caring, compassionate, and seasoned leaders at the helm. Thank you President Biden and Vice President Harris. We are better off because of you.

Republicans politicizing the LA wildfires is so incredibly disgusting and morally bankrupt. Magats, who dominate that party, are nothing but ignorance and hate. I can only hope one day we force them back under their rocks and leave this pathetic chapter in this nation’s history behind us.

The fact that Trump and his MAGA minions are spreading incredibly dangerous disinformation about the emergency response to the catastrophic fires in California is fucking criminal.

It’s not even remotely surprising, but it is nonetheless fucking reprehensible.

The California fires and impacts are heartbreaking I hope all are safe. Losing possessions is awful but nothing compared to loss of life, including animals.

Why does it feel like it’s all going to 💩? From the proposed changes to the law and programs, to quality of nominees, to the complicity of the media, and even acceptance by Dem officials, it’s all so incredibly awful.

JFC. What does this dimwit think Senators do?
