A little explainer/context for those who claim against evidence that Ukraine is Zionist or some other such silliness based on nothing more than Zelensky is Jewish. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
I know that in the Bible, religious people ended up abandoning God and mindlessly worshiping a golden calf, so it shouldn’t be surprising that so many today are now bowing down to this orange jack*ss.
It’s just more terrifying seeing it this close...

🚨BREAKING: Virginia court REJECTS Republican lawsuit in challenging the legislature’s authority to alter the 2021 congressional map. A HUGE victory for our client the DCCC and the voters of Virginia. Another defeat for the GOP. www.democracydocket.com/cases/virgin...
Those of us in the pro-democracy movement can and should hold both of these positions.
1. We unequivocally reject violence.
2. We will unequivocally oppose efforts by this administration to use last night as an excuse to try to suppress criticism and criminalize dissent.
The winning metaphor is that the White House Correspondents Association hired a magician instead of a comedian. Sleight of hand over speaking truth to power.
I’m listening to seasoned reporters talk about how frightened they were during the shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner last night and imagining how much worse it is for America’s children. If there’s ever been a time to pass sensible gun control laws, it’s now.
I’m at an NBA playoff game tonight and will not be covering Trump’s post-gunman press conference, which I’m sure will be deeply unsettling and weird. Congrats, America.
Trump will attend after 10+ years of labeling the press "the enemy of the people" All while threatening reporters, news agencies, night show hosts and celebrating disinformation.....🤔
Criminals doing criminal things, and not even being subtle about their criminal behavior. In a functioning government, not run by criminals, there would be an investigation and efforts to stop these open collusion.
A butterfly vigil was held today, the one year anniversary of Virginia's suicide.
She was a warrior for the Epstein survivors sisters & so many victims around our nation who did not receive justice.
Thank you Virginia & I hope you are at peace. 🦋

The USA has foolishly elected a dangerous, duplicitous conman as President. It will require a concerted, thoughtful effort by all good Americans to undo this malevolence and the time to begin this work is now. Failure is not an option.
NBC News just said 30% of our country is in extreme drought conditions, which are fueling wildfires. IMHO, data centers should be BANNED in all of these regions, as they use 1 to 5 million gallons of water per day, equivalent to a town of 10,000 to 50,000 people!!!
The richest man owns X.
The second and fourth richest men control Google.
The third richest man owns The Washington Post.
The fifth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.
See the problem here?
“Are you concerned about insider trading on these prediction markets re: the war?”
TRUMP: “The world is a casino. It is what it is.” 🤷🏼
And there you have it, folks!
Everywhere you look, Trump, his family members, his donors, his political supporters & his cronies are looting the US treasury, getting paid by foreign entities for policy favors, & getting no bid contracts. Criminal cases are dropped and convictions pardoned. The US govt is an ongoing crime scene.
If not for Trump, what's the emoluments clause for? What's impeachment for? What's the 25th Amendment for? What's section 3 of the 14th Amendment for? What are checks and balances for?
The baddies are cherrypicking the Constitution the same way they do the bible: for their own benefit.
For too long, bureaucracy kept 7 child care centers across our city empty — spaces that should have been alive with laughter instead collected dust.
We've run through that red tape. This fall, all 7 will open their doors, bringing an additional 240 free 3-K seats & real relief to working families.
I’ll never get over the fact that US Health is being run by a deranged asshole drug addict who has admitted to snorting cocaine off of a toilet seat and who has a disgusting fascination with cutting off penises from dead animals.
Pennsylvania's appellate court confirmed that access to abortion is a fundamental right under the Pennsylvania Constitution.
This decision is a win for all Pennsylvanians.
The government shouldn't be making your healthcare decisions - you should.

In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces.
249 years later, we have this idiot.
Rep. Analilia Mejia didn’t come to play.
She went back to the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871.
Then brought it straight to now.
“Stand up, defend, restore not only our democracy but also a just economy that actually works for working people.”

Dozens of American veterans and military family members were detained after they started protesting the Iran war inside a congressional office building in Washington D.C.
Everything the Ellison family could own if Paramount buys Warner Bros:

Showtime
HBO
Warner Bros
TNT
TBS
MTV

This is a rotten deal that the Trump regime has rubber stamped.
State AGs must step in and block it.
Nevada's largest utility says it will need three times the electricity required to power Las Vegas just to handle proposed data centers — and it probably can't do that without fossil fuels.

Gonna spend the next two years spamming every elected Dem about the concept of "damnatio memoriae." Chisel his name off every inscription. Build over the various Trump Towers like they're Nero's Golden House. Remove him from physical memory, not to forget but as a sign of disrespect to the man.
The seven-member body, whose ranks are composed of Trump appointees, was expected to approve the arch. The proposed monument strongly resembles Paris' Arc de Triomphe, but almost 100 feet taller. n.pr/3O5czfK
Whistleblower Josef Palermo, 1st ever Kennedy Center visual arts curator, revealed that Felon47 ravaged the Center’s economic base — as a result, it may go bankrupt.
When Josef was laid off, he refused to sign an NDA, so he gets neither severance nor healthcare.
Who among us would be so brave?
