Stay united.

Doing what you can - doing anything - is better than arguing over what’s the “right” thing to do.

Focus on the shared enemy.

Any man over 21 is not a boy. A 30 year old is not a boy. A 40 year old is not a boy. They may act like immature assholes, but they are not boys. These are men. Deplorable, insecure, and apparently all fat men.

Here’s the thing. We still have the power (probably) to say that this image must not be what America is. We still have the power to say “fuck no, we refuse to allow this to be what the streets of America look like.” Attend a “No Kings” rally this Saturday. And then vote in 2026.

🔥 ZOHRAN ON FOX: "I want to speak directly to the president. I will not be a mayor like Adams who will call you to stay out of jail… a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election… I’ll be a mayor ready to speak at any time to lower the cost of living.“

Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

The Founders counted on Congress being interested in protecting its own powers vis a vis the executive. They certainly didn't foresee a speaker like Mike Johnson. www.thebulwark.com/p/speaker-mi...

Every Trump needs his Johnson: a flunky who will rationalize his crimes.

I listened. Not a lawyer, but it seemed pretty circular to get where the conservative justices already knew they wanted to go.

(AP) — Dozens of reporters turned in access badges and exited the Pentagon on Wednesday rather than agree to government-imposed restrictions on their work, pushing journalists who cover the American military further from the seat of its power.

"It is ridiculous that antifa has become this boogeyman. If they're going to tell us they are going to find the founder of Antifa, isn't the founder of Antifa...Winston Churchill? FDR? Didn't they lead a war against fascism? Wasn't that anti-fascism?" - me
