🚨DJT wins at one thing: He is the most crass and embarrassing person to ever represent at least half of the country - whether they would admit it or not. Too, nobody who is innocent of having misled the country intentionally acts like this.

Embattled reproductive healthcare providers and patients in the US are already dealing with unprecedented harassment and intimidation. The resurgence of blockades as a tactic carries significant potential for radicalizing participants to violence.

Trump really wants us to be North Korea: completely brainwashed into thinking we’re the best, no protests allowed, and his giant image everywhere. Complete control.

We ain’t NK. Or Russia. But we might be Hungary, if we don’t win this thing.

We will win.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

I'm old.

If you're not, listen to this.

Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.

Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.

It's literally never been more important.

Count me in ... I'll be there for dinner ! 👍
So be unconventional… when you can take some time off, plan a Thanksgiving do-over! There’s no rule that we only get one day a year. We can make that day any day we all come together in love & laughter & make memories.

This Thanksgiving, I'm thinking of our neighbors with an empty seat at the dinner table.

Those with loved ones abducted & deported from their families.

Those we lost due to gun violence, mass incarceration, & more.

A more just America is possible, if we fight for it.

This was a sad day for America !
This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

The President of the United States of America - who is a stunning black hole of sociopathy and malignant narcissism - is emotionally incapable of wishing ALL the people of the United States a Happy Thanksgiving.

Incapable.

Oh and he threatened the lives of Dem legislators this week.

This Thanksgiving—observe the National Day of Mourning.

From 1819 to 1969, US Govt stole tens of thousands of Indigenous kids—forcing them to convert to Christianity & stripping them of their identities. Resistance was met with violence. Sexual abuse was rampant.
