Congratulations. My ancestors began arriving in 1850, but most came in the late 1880s. We still benefitted from white privilege and gained generational wealth because of our race.

Irony alert: when you win the mayor's race, Ackman will probably get that $1 million back if he just invests in the stronger, more dynamic economy that common-sense progressive policies create.

Men can't even be forced to donate a pint of blood to save another person's life, but MAGA expects women to put every organ system at risk, for months, to create a new human, even when she didn't consent in the first place. Then they yell from the rooftops that they're "Christians." SMH

BREAKING: We just secured a big win with our co-counsel on behalf of civil servants.

This court order proves what we've long known — President Trump and Russ Vought attempting to fire federal workers during the shutdown is illegal.

How many anti-Trump relatives and acquaintances does Davis have who are appalled by this kind of crap, but won't say a damn word to him, because they want to "keep the peace"? That's the second biggest problem with white America, right after the actual fascists themselves.

We had a stable government, full of insanely competent people, with smart fiscal policies, combined with an independent Fed. Nothing like now.

MAGA really is the movement for mediocre white men who cannot accept that they're simply not good enough.

Demanding sympathy after decades of spreading conspiracy theories and lies ("they're eating the cats & dogs" "abortion after birth") to defame, demean and dehumanize anyone not white, straight & "Christian," is the height of privilege. You voted for the "F*** Your Feelings" Era? Happy to oblige.

Those are the exact "Christian" values to which JD (whatever his last name is this week) aspires. It's the modern perversion of the the very concepts of Christianity that transforms the Golden Rule into "I can treat you like crap, because I'm a white dude, and you still have to respect me."

I was a kid and it was so exciting! I didn't learn about the threats until he actually broke the record and those two teenagers jumped onto the field to celebrate with him. My parents had to explain why that wasn't a good thing.
