Confused. Are drugs bad?

The horrific shooting of National Guard members is not an excuse to increase their presence against local rule, community sentiment & a pending court order. Public safety results from data driven policies-not a reactionary show of force from the executive.

On the eve of the vote to release the Epstein files and (hopefully) end the silence, a lot of reporters stayed silent when one of their female peers was called Piggy by the president.
We can’t end violence against women unless a whole lot more people are willing to speak up when they see it.

Occurs to me that whether you think Marjorie Taylor Greene should be welcomed into The Tent or not depends on whether you think the fight is against a fascist movement or against one particular very bad man.

Democratic organizers did our fucking part. We gave Democrats a clean sweep on Tuesday so Chuck Schumer have leverage to negotiate.
Instead, either because of malice or sheer fucking incompetence, he is letting his caucus fold like fucking cowards.

I've been boycotting Spotify since last January, when they changed their payment structure to be worse for artists. I love to see this!
Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going!
Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists.
We made it easy at boycottspotify.com.
