Gaslighting is the entire GOP playbook. From ‘biggest crowd ever’ to ‘normal tourist visit,’ they’re betting you’ll ignore reality. If we allow them to keep rewriting history, they’ll keep burning the truth to the ground.

Listening to the mother of former Capitol Police Officer Michael Fanone describing on @joy.msnbc.com how she has been harassed and menaced is making my chest so tight. If your police union hasn’t condemned this conduct if, as a Member of Congress, you’ve condoned these pardons, you are a disgrace.

Arizona AG Kris Mayes who is suing over Donald Trump’s executive order to ban birthright citizenship:
"This is bizarre. This a bizarre attempt to undermine 150 years of jurisprudence and the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution."
Nailed it!

Last month, Sen. Deb Fischer's (R-NE) husband refused to shake the Vice President's hand.
Yesterday, he tried to shake Doug Emhoff's hand. The Second Gentleman replied: "Why would you try to shake my hand when you wouldn’t shake my wife’s hand?”
REPOST if you love Doug Emhoff!

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

The inverted flag isn’t disrespect — it’s a distress signal from naval traditions, used to show grave danger to life or property.
With a lawless man set to take power after attempting to overthrow the government, America is in extreme danger.
That’s why I’m posting it today.
