I’m a high school Math teacher who loves her job. I am a semiprofessional costumer and entertainer at renfaires and comiccons and reenactments. I hate Trump. I’m terrified of what is happening to America and will be fighting for democracy till I die.

@booker.senate.gov: "For a guy who spends the weekend on his golf course and brags to the media about him winning a tournament while the struggling-- this is the kind of gross arrogance of a Marie Antoinette saying, "let them eat cake" ... Screw him for telling people to accept pain."

Elonia is not doing this out of his billionaire heart of gold……. He’s fleecing the US tax payer for all we’re worth while destroying all the important services we rely on! If that’s not the definition of evil, I don’t know what is!!! When empathy is a bad word, this is what happens.

The House just passed its budget resolution, so reconciliation is now officially underway. This is their bill to destroy Medicaid and SNAP while cutting taxes disproportionately for the rich.
THIS IS VERY REAL and can be enacted even if all Ds vote no.

Bernie and AOC are killing it on this oligarch tour!!!
I got asked "Who do you actually support as someone from UK who doesn't know about US politics?". Let me tell you now - Bernie Sanders and A.O.C. Know how hard it is for US politicians to become popular across the pond? It's next to impossible. Bernie and A.O.C have that respect.

Trying to target a handful of trans people by disenfranchising millions of married seems a bit crazy….. but perhaps I have that all backwards? Hmm
Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name.
It is blatantly unconstitutional.

They fired Navy Vice Admiral Shoshana Chatfield—not because she couldn’t do the job, but because she wouldn’t hang up pictures of Trump and Hegseth. This ain’t about merit—it’s about ego.

Why does California have to share a nation with Alabama?
We need to end the farce that the states are united. The only thing we share with Alabama is the poor fortune to be stuck with it in a dying empire.
Let’s end this farce.
