“The 2020 election was stolen.”
“January 6th was Nancy Pelosi’s fault.”
“She’s a domestic terrorist.”
“I’ll lower grocery prices on day one.”
“No new foreign entanglements.”
Lies. All lies.

If you were a halfway decent human being and you knew an innocent man was rotting in foreign prison—likely suffering nightmarish conditions—because your administration screwed up and send him there, you’d do something about it immediately instead of shitposting lies all day.

Sanders: I'm not a mathematician but I do know that 99% is a hell of a lot bigger number than 1%. I do know that if we stand together, we are the vast majority of people. We can defeat trumpism

AOC, @aoc.bsky.social, making the case for free speech alongside universal healthcare is so KEY for the left, because it's time progressives reclaimed the mantle of fighting for free speech from the faux free speech warriors of the right.
AOC: I want to live in an America that guarantees healthcare to every person.
I want to live in an America that has a living wage for every person
I want to live in an America where you have free speech to express yourself and not be afraid of being put on a list or deported.

They should still release it.
BREAKING NEWS:
Matt Gaetz resigned from Congress today, two days before the House Ethics Committee was set to vote on releasing a “highly damaging” report about sexual misconduct, illicit drug use, and improper gifts.
The Ethics Committee loses jurisdiction over Gaetz once he leaves Congress.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.
We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Welcome new followers 👋🏽 I post a lot about immigration because I come from an immigrant family and don’t believe in slamming shut the door behind me but also because immigration is good for the nation. I also post about cats, which I believe are also good for the nation. Meet my cat Juan Gabriel 🐾

Gonna be a lot of tension in the White House between people who think 15m deportations is just a thing to tell the rubes—like building a wall that Mexico was going to pay for—and between the guys who view getting rid of the brown people as a holy crusade.
