I like writing, whiskey, politics, and sports. I deplore the American fascist government. Oh, and I'm the world's worst Buddhist.

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."
Narrator: Nothing happened.
No kings. No fucking kings.

Raise cost for healthcare by thousands of dollars, then send them $100 checks with a Trump signature. Have you even said thank you yet?

Trump says if he invokes the Insurrection Act, ”there is no more court cases, there is no more anything.”
By “no more anything” he means no more democracy.
Trump: "I'm allowed as you know as president, like 50% of the presidents have used the Insurrection Act. Everybody agrees you're allowed to use that and there is no more court cases, there is no more anything. We're trying to do it in a nicer manner, but we can always use the Insurrection Act."

Excellent No Kings turnout in Tampa and it was totally peaceful. I also felt like we learned something from Portland.

It's official. Nearly 7 million people. Today is the single largest day of protest in American history. Americans from all corners of the country are standing up and saying #NoKings. This is what peaceful, patriotic protest looks like.
What a delusional, dishonest, dictator.

Authoritarianism is a cancer. And it's growing, metastasizing. In America. Now.

YOU are the cure. Do your part and join us on Saturday.

Do it for your country. For the Constitution. For your freedoms.

While you still can.

Tampa — with thousands of my friends!
Where will you be marching, protesting and speaking out on Saturday?

Lots of Republicans quietly agree that something needs to be done about the Trump-led healthcare cost crisis. We must get the GOP on the record to pressure leadership into negotiating an end to the Trump Shutdown: indivisible.org/campaign/sto...

The destruction of objective truth and the devaluation of basic facts have proven to be Trump’s greatest weapons (and his most damaging impacts).

13 October 1942 | A French Jewish boy, Jean Stolowicz, was born in Paris.

He arrived at #Auschwitz on 10 October 1943 in a transport of 1,000 Jews deported from #Drancy. He was among 491 of them murdered in a gas chamber after the selection.

Reverend David Black, the senior pastor at First Presbyterian Church of Chicago, was praying at the armed agents above him before being shot in the head with a pepper ball at least twice and falling to his knees.

Black said he could hear ICE laughing. trib.al/9Nstfnp

At what point will our media ask about Trump’s obvious mental decline? He’s so far gone that he does not remember he was president in January 6, 2021
