Instead of going to Starbucks this morning I brewed my own coffee, shouted someone else’s name, and set a $5 bill on fire.

This was such a fun afternoon!
Batgirl & her colleague Kaitlyn, from the RED Bookshelf, joined YRI’s Philanthropy Committee for an afternoon of book cleaning & mending. The books are placed in free red bookshelves all across the Capital Region, encouraging literacy and a love of reading.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.

11,000 people showed up.

Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

Good morning and Happy Monday to everyone who agrees that ANYONE who can't easily admit that Russia invaded Ukraine is a Putin bootlicker, a Russian stooge, and a moronic fucking asshole.

Russia invaded Ukraine, folks. PERIOD.

Darren Beattie, Trump’s new acting Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs, once posted, “Competent white men must be in charge if you want things to work.” Beattie also posted I need to “learn” my “place” and “take a knee to MAGA.” 1/2
