We are witnessing what happens when both Republican and Democratic senators are pretty much bankrolled and controlled by the same corporate entities....

I'm calling my Senator this morning and requesting that Senate Democrats removed Schumer from leadership.

A friend of mine and her partner were forced to adopt their 10 year old daughter to make sure this Christofascist regime couldn’t take her away from them. This is so fucked

Canceled my TYT account today. I’ve been a listener for 15+ years, YouTube member for 11 years and paid sub for 8 years. I don’t think they’re making a right shift and I don’t care if they have sponsorships. Their opinions haven’t really changed like many say but they’re reporting lately is far

Before yesterday's crash, President Trump:
- Fired the heads of the TSA and the Coast Guard
- Pushed out the head of the FAA — leaving no one in charge
- Gutted a key aviation safety group
- Pushed air traffic controllers to quit as he purges the government
He's putting Americans in danger.

It’s far too soon to ascribe responsibility for the horrific DC plane collision, but it’s not too soon to say that dismantling the safeguards afforded by a functioning federal government put us at significant risk. And it’s irrefutable that, since January 20th, we are all less safe.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

My FB and Twitter feeds have been inundated with right wing propaganda pages since the election, Twitter started before the election. I deleted Twitter because it became so bad. I block numerous right wing propaganda pages every day in FB. I’m a “radical leftist”. Why am I not being shown what I

They are unreachable because they are owned by the same people who own the Republicans. The sooner you pedantic liberal shitheads understand that the sooner we can make actual progress, but instead you insist on believing half the ruling class wants to save us from the other half.

It's always "you withheld your vote to make a statement" and never "you refused to vote for someone supporting genocide" because you know it's easier to denounce the former than the latter. Democrats love painting the left as petulant children rather than, idk, people with moral principals

Really is infuriating how we kept being told by Dems that there was nothing Biden could do about abortion or trans folks for years and now Trump is basically making himself king of the US via executive fiat.

I think I’m going to listen to music today. Some 90’s grunge, 70’s Rock and Roll, rap and hip hop, and some Grateful Dead while I install drywall inside the playhouse I’m building for my daughter. I need a break from politics. Just for today though.

Good for them. We should have paid family leave for all new mothers and fathers
Low-income single mothers appear to be using welfare as a form of paid family leave following childbirth, according to Oregon State University research that looked at birth data in Oregon.

As we inch toward clean energy, Big Oil is tripling down on plastics. At the UN Plastics talks, over 200 petrochemical lobbyists blocked production cuts efforts. Big Oil profits while environmental and human health suffers. We must secure a strong Global Plastics Treaty.

I love this idea that Biden pardoning Hunter will somehow ‘justify’ or ‘excuse’ Trump pardoning the Jan 6th prisoners, ignoring the fact that:
1. Trump had promised to pardon them long before Biden did this.
2. There is nothing comparable between Hunter’s crimes & their crimes.

I don’t care that Biden pardoned his son for “trumoed” up charges they would never have been brought. He isn’t a criminal, he is a drug addict. Trump pardoned ghouls like Eddie Gallagher who liked to murder civilians while they slept in Iraq.
