Today they have crossed a deep red line.

We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

Dear World,

Don’t visit us unless you absolutely have to.

This is a dreadful situation.

We’re all embarrassed and disgusted.

Sincerely,

Decent Americans

Pam Bondi said on Fox that the FBI’s arrest of a county judge is “sending a very strong message.” Yes, Pam, and that message is, this country is being ruled by fascist traitors.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. 

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. 

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

How much untold pain and disgrace could have been avoided had a handful of GOP Senators had the guts to convict after the second impeachment?

They utterly failed the test of history.

"They'll never cut Social Security" is the new "they'll never overturn Roe v Wade."

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.

What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

Just heard from a friend who is a true hero veteran. His company was destroyed in 30 days by the VA when they canceled 5 contracts without notice. 23 Americans mostly veterans out of work and a veteran owned small business destroyed. For nothing. They're dismantling the VA not "reforming" it.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Why does a 38-year old U.S. Attorney in SDNY, who is also a die hard conservative, have more guts and integrity than the entirety of the GOP Senate Conference combined?!

Shame on the shameless sycophants and enablers there, who can’t find the spine to stand up to common MAGA bullies.

Musk has made over $25,000,000,000 from tax breaks, subsidies and government contracts. That’s $25 Billion we as taxpayers have both given him directly and had to compensate for. You care about the deficit? Great! Give us our fucking money back.

My message to members of the sclerotic Democratic old guard is:

Follow your dreams. Write that book. Start that sheep farm. Spend more time with your great-grandkids.

There is no shame in not being adequate to this moment. Now make room for people who are.

I just saw Trump’s latest executive order targeting trans kids and shutting down their health care. I’m asking all of us to stand up with one voice for the trans community.

Ukrainian cats are also invincible and brave!

A real miracle happened in Kherson region. The owners found their cat after a year of separation. She survived the Russian occupation and the terrible events of the war.

Reminder that these executive orders are for shock and awe.

They are a distraction from bills in the House and Senate & the confirmation hearings.

Have a drink tonight.

Scream. Yell. Cry.

Whatever you need to do.

But tomorrow, we get to work.
