"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

Three people protesting outside the Portland, OR ICE facility, dressed in inflatable frog costumes, holding a small sign that says “Portland Frog Brigade”.

Over top of the photo is white text reading: “Exodus 8:2-6 "But if you refuse to let them go, I will plague your whole country with frogs... The frogs shall come up on you and on your people and on all your officials."”

As the son of an Episcopal priest, I can confirm that Episcopalian #resist moms have been memeing for quite some time

This is a generational race.

It’s about old ideas vs new ideas. About whether Democrats win by fighting for serious structural change — or lose to Susan Collins yet again by doing more of the same.

They should not have used that picture….. now that they have this result is to be expected….. the president does not want this to become a trend.
