All the traits that you have been taught to value and look for in special individuals - courage, intelligence, strength - are actually collective traits. There is no genius or hero coming to save us from our problems. We solve them together or not at all. Socialism or barbarism.
I have never witnessed such a spiderweb of collective action, just average everyday people showing up. Not the heroism we’ve been sold by the movies but collective heroism, a fabric of care and resistance to fascism.

One of the core purposes of right-wing media is to rewrite your memory and reprogram your moral response to an event you saw with your own eyes. George Floyd died of a heart attack. Jan 6 was a peaceful picnic. This process has already begun
THERE IS VIDEO

I really do not want to recommend to everyone a video of a person being shot but there is video from multiple angles

why not cut the crap and just publish "this paper supports random state murder, it makes us feel good, kill kill kill"? same exact meaning, less embarrassing

My 4-year-old overheard me telling my sibling, “America’s in big trouble.” Later he said, “America needs to not break stuff and use its inside voice.” Chaos solved with preschool logic. Proud Dad here.

Today marks two months since the Senate unanimously passed my bill with Senator Collins to fix the D.C. budget time bomb set off by House Republicans.

If they don't pass this bill, D.C. won't be able to use its OWN money to fund its OWN schools, public safety and more. They must act.

It’s officially been two months since the Senate passed a simple fix to let DC access its own tax dollars.

Instead of passing this completely free fix, House Republicans are sitting on their asses and prolonging pain for hundreds of thousands of DC residents.
