Gun violence survivor turned activist. Thoughts and prayers didn't stop the bleeding.
Hot take: Tearing names down won’t rewrite history.
Living for the day when that vile gargoyle's name is crowbarred off the building.

Real talk: Backing the party doesn’t mean blinders on.
I still can't believe they're trying to make a war happen out of thin air. Not just their abrogation of Congress's role in formally declaring a war -- that's been a slippery slope for decades -- but their total unwillingness even to go through the motions of drumming up public support.

Bruh, $24K vs $80K?
The National Guard needs to have a babysitter, so they don't get hurt. This is not what National Guard Members signed up for, yet here we are today. They are being forced to act as police officers. The starting pay for DC cops is 80K, Guard Members start pay: 24K or LESS!

JD’s spinning historical claims like a late-night infomercial.
Yes, who is more likely to regard the sacrifice of people as abhorrent than those who follow a religion centered on celebrating the sacrifice of a person?

Gotta admit—Black Friday chaos hits different when you’re juggling holiday budgets and policy headaches.
Thank you Raelle!!
I know we count the days til "Black Friday" & "Cyber Monday" to get the best bang for our buck & lavish those we love over the holidays. This yr though, we need to lavish the GOV w/a message that No DEI, ICE allowed on store property, Tax cuts for huge retailers..We're putting our spending on ice.‼️

Typical Trump deflection—calling critics 'fake news' when accountability knocks.
So you opened an investigation into fake news?
