My mom has been protesting for decades (and my dad fit the same mold). I guess I get it from somewhere. It was great to hang out in West Jordan this morning!

They’re counting on exhaustion to win.
We’re betting on discipline. #Holdfast

The coup doesn’t need victory. It just needs us to quit.
We don’t. #Holdfast

America doesn’t fall because villains rise.
It falls when defenders stop holding the line. #Holdfast👇👇👇

A real President ……….

Sixty-two years ago today, November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. He was shot while riding in an open-top car and died later at Parkland Hospital. The event, which occurred at 12:30 p.m. CST, was a moment of national tragedy.

Sex trafficking on Meta platforms was both difficult to report and widely tolerated. Instagram’s former head of safety testified that when she joined Meta in 2020 she was shocked to learn the company had a “17x” strike policy for accounts that engaged in the “trafficking of humans for sex.”
7 Allegations Against Meta in Newly Unsealed Filings

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

So let’s do it again. This time to restore the ACA credits he stole from us:

To the men and women who wear the uniform...my brothers and sisters in arms...I know the message from those six Democratic lawmakers wasn’t just heard...it resonated. The nation will look to you to act with honor. I have full confidence you’ll rise to the moment.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

It has been so since Trump 1.0, & they got even dumber and created Trump 2.0 and the MAGA mess of today.

We need to start a special fund to help educate MAGA folks. We will, of course, need to spend a few days explaining to them why they can't go to Trump University.

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running.

This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.
Our Economy Is in Danger. Here’s Why

Behind this important reversal is a member of the Coast Guard who saw what was happening and had the courage to leak it to the press. That person deserves serious praise.

They are literally firing all the judges they think might grant relief. They just fired a friend of mine a couple hours ago. They have no shame. The bastards want an assembly line for deportations and nothing more; rubber-stamping bootlickers who’ll yes’sir at every new diktat to deny.
Instead of hiring more immigration judges, the Department of Justice just posted an ad for "deportation judges." join.justice.gov

The Nuremberg trials established:
1 Obeying orders does not absolve individuals of their responsibility for war crimes
2 Moral agency doesn’t disappear under a military hierarchy
3 Coercion must be extreme to excuse actions

An illegal order is no order

Obedience is not an excuse for atrocity
