A senator celebrating the murder of political opponents should be expelled. Not debated. Not excused. Expelled.

If Noem doesn’t know who the California senator is, what else doesn’t she know?
Padilla on Noem: "How does the cabinet secretary not know the senator from California when she steps foot into Los Angeles? She came through the Senate for confirmation."

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee:
“Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

Hey Bluesky family! I live in a Senior Assisted Living facility. Many residents do not have visitors. Please, if you have time, volunteer a few hours a week just to come hang out, and visit with people. It’s good for them, and it’ll be great for your spirit. Kindness costs nothing. Please repost.

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points.
And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.
