I'm not even going to repost a screengrab of his post about Rob Reiner but man it really needs to be said every single day: Trump truly is the biggest piece of shit in the world, a man of absolutely no good qualities and seemingly limitless bad ones. Support for him is just so damning.

I know that Trump's death won't magically fix everything but I do think that the collective wave of global joy that when we all get the news will be powerful enough to at least save an endangered species of something

There are so many Diane Keaton performances to remember, but a lot of people haven't seen Reds, and A) my God, see it, it is a masterpiece and B) her performance as Louise Bryant is one of the bravest, toughest, least sympathy-courting pieces of work by an American actress in the last 50 years.

ICE now has a larger budget than Russia's entire army. Skyrocketing debt to give billionaires tax breaks. Millions losing their healthcare and food assistance programs. More concentration camps being built.

This bill is an act of war by the billionaires and their white nationalist allies against the people of the United States.
It will take health care from millions of people to fund tax cut for billionaires, secret police to arrest the President’s critics, and concentration camps.
It’s fascism.
