Proud husband & father. I love my country but am saddened by what has transpired. I am easily distracted by animals and funny videos, the 49ers, Giants, Warriors, and sports in general. No love for MAGA.

A totalitarian movement must never achieve its goals, as that would eliminate the need for the movement itself. Even in victory, new enemies must be created in order to justify further cruelty and domination.
A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

It’s not the first time Jim Jordan has covered for sexual abusers.
The Republican Party is no longer functioning as a political party. It’s a child sex trafficking and sexual abuse ring.
Reprehensible.

DiSabato: Jim Jordan knew that Dr. Strauss was performing unnecessary genital exams. And he absolutely knew that Dr. Strauss was taking showers with us on a daily basis..
He knows that because he was there with us. Jim took showers with us.

Deranged Fat Ass is firing the imminently competent and non-political head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics because he can’t admit what a monumental incompetent and deranged scumbag failure he really is. Piece of shit.

Can you hit repost? Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want you to know the name of her opponent but will try every desperate attempt to save her seat.
My name is Shawn Harris. I am a Democrat, husband, father, Retired Brigadier General, farmer, and I'm running against MTG. Can you share and follow me?

You're seeing America kamikaze itself into a brick wall.
It didn't have to be this way.
But greed and racism, our two sins, will be our downfall.
Too many people still with their hands in the sand.

Please repeat over and over:

If we were conquered and under hostile occupation, what would the government do differently? Would an occupation government that wanted to crush the United States as a vibrant, prosperous country with influence around the world do anything differently?

the weird thing about the descent into fascism is how normal everything else seems.
kids have birthday parties. folks go on vacation. neighbors say good morning. people walk their dogs. joggers wind their way through their early-morning exercise.
yet the power grab slowly grows.

You do not have to consume every single tiny piece of bad news in order to be a good person. It’s ok to miss things. Traumatizing yourself isn’t the same as activism. Bearing witness to the point that you’re paralyzed with fear and horror and fury isn’t going to help us get through this.
Remember their goal is to terrorize us. And social media is a fantastic way to spread terror. We don’t have to help them.
Based on the vibes of my timeline today I’m feeling like the next two weeks are probably gonna be a really good time to reduce social media use as much as possible. Because YIKES.

I don't know if the LA fire department is properly funded or not but the claim that the city cut its budget last year — which is circulating widely on the right — is false.
As Politico notes, the budget actually INCREASED by $50 million. A portion of the funding was approved in a separate bill.
