Interesting, if difficult, question (how many artists of ANY description have even a single "perfect" album?) but some of the responses to this one made me go

Indivisible, 50501, and everyone involved in these big protests are doing phenomenal work. There is literally nothing to lose by continuing to push high turnout, nonviolent, orderly, protests with the simple message that dictatorships are bad and unAmerican, and Trump is trying to be a dictator.

“Trump is trying to destroy the rule of law, trying to destroy our democracy, trying to stop you from being able to speak freely. But he can’t win if we mobilize.”

#CollectiveCourage: “It’s also important to note Disney’s final assessment: Protesters were more powerful than Trump.

That should give hope. Because when millions act quickly, strategically, and together, even authoritarian overreach can be stopped cold.”

No Gym, we will never forget your complicity in the sexual abuse of boys. Even after you leave public life. Even after you die. We will not forget. Not ever.

Ken Paxton and John Cornyn claim to stand for freedom, family, and faith. 

But you can't stand for freedom and control women's bodies.

You can't stand for family and vote against paid family leave.

You can't stand for faith and sell out the poor to give tax cuts to the rich.

“The only government service we will provide is a Secret Police.”
Internal DHS memo shows Trump plans to keep paying ICE agents and Border Patrol officers throughout the shutdown, while other feds go without pay.

Every time Trump escalates his attacks on our communities, the #NoKings movement grows even stronger.

We—the millions of Americans who make up this peaceful movement—are coming together on Oct. 18th to say: NO KINGS!

💥 We are the power—let’s do this!

Dr. Durrani reminds us: ER doctors are proud to care for anyone, anywhere, 24/7, 365. They swore an oath to heal, not to play politics. Trump’s cruel cuts betray that oath and put lives at risk. #TrumpShutdownBadForUS

The fact that Republican “fiscal conservatives” in Congress aren’t saying a word about Trump’s $40 billion bailout of Argentina (“America first!!!”) just shows that they’re complete hypocrites.
