It's going to be so funny when the "Hate America" rally, as described by the GOP, is attended by historic crowds of normies

trump said today that 'very few' people were going to participate in the No Kings protests.

We need to prove him wrong. In astonishing numbers, we need to prove him wrong.

Thank you for your attention to this matter💙✌🏻💙

I believe the south side Chicago building was “full of Tren de Aragua gang members” about as much as I believe the Venezuelan boats are filled with “narcoterrotists”.

The regime will say anything to justify unreasonable, and even lethal, force.

Zohran Mamdani uses his appearance on Fox News to "speak directly to the president," since "he might be watching right now."

Mamdani looks straight into the Fox camera as he says this >>>

If you’ve recently awoken from a coma, the Speaker of the House is stalling the swearing in of a newly elected member from Arizona because she would be the deciding vote in the discharge petition to release the Epstein files, which would be trouble for his boss.

You’re caught up.

Ps: Welcome back.

Neurologically speaking, there's no such thing as 'useless' subjects or 'rip-off' degrees

Insisting we should only teach useful subjects is like saying science should only do research that gives positive results

If you honestly believe that's how anything works, *your* education was the wasted one

“Not going to be great” is quite the understatement by Fox here.

Tweet by FactPost (@factpostnews) reading: “Fox: The tariffs, 10% for lumber, 25% for cabinets, vanities, upholstered furniture. On January 1st, the tariff for cabinets and vanities increase to 50%, all the rest of the furniture to 30%. The cost of building materials has increased 34%. There is a concern that this is not going to be great for the home buying industry.” Below is a Fox Business screenshot showing a reporter in a lumber workshop with the headline “New tariffs on furniture & lumber take effect.”

I've had this up since January and read it occasionally since then.

Today @deviantollam.bsky.social asked me what it said and I read it to him —choking up at the end.

Hold hope, my dear loves. In the end, we will prevail. #lovewins #freedomovertyranny

When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall.

I was talking to my therapist about how much I hate that my mental health is hinged upon the stability of my finances, and when I said that out loud I realized that was asinine.

We're talking about livelihood and quality of life. Of course, that being unstable would cause depression and anxiety

The GOP that gave us the Jan 6 terrorist attack and then pardoned the terrorists is calling the No Kings rally a pro-terrorist rally. These are despicable people.

Hey Mike Johnson – the more you facilitate a cover-up and do everything in your power to prevent the release of the Epstein files – the more your constituents, the American public, and the whole world are going to believe you are guilty of the exact same types of crimes as Jeffrey Epstein.

Immigration is not the reason for the issues in this country, wealth hoarders are, and if you're still blaming the former then I have a Fair Isle patterned paint to sell you.

I also support a wealth tax and I'm open to the idea of a universal basic income as well. Just so we're clear.

Just a daily reminder that the Dept. of Education was created bc states refused to fund poor schools, protect kids with disabilities, or follow civil rights law - especially in the South.
