Right now, in every city, there is someone trying to make sure the homeless have blankets, warm clothing, food and shelter. When MAGA gets you down on humanity think of those good people instead. There are people among us worth your admiration.

Even Mr. Fantastic would think that's a bit of a stretch....
Can't believe Elon Musk allows Alex Jones, the person who insisted that the Sandy Hook Massacre was a hoax, to still spread toxic hatred and lies.

NEW: Trump’s approval among Catholics falls to a historic low.
A rising movement of Catholics, emboldened by Pope Leo, is turning against MAGA.

Under Pope Leo XIV, American Catholics Are Uniting to Defeat MAGA Authoritarianism
Trump’s support among U.S. Catholics has plummeted to an all-time low of 39%, a stark decline over the year. This is no accident. Under Leo XIV, we're working to defeat Trump-Vance authoritarianism.

Why the F*** are they pulling out their weapons? Was she armed? Had she assaulted them in any way? That police chief should have arrested all of them as terrorists.
This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

Suggest you might want to read this one twice. Makes an elegant point about the depravity of Trump...when you look at what Obama did without breaking laws & without behaving like a shit. Trump is a hateful and vengeful child in the White House.

I think a good strategy for your non-leftist social media presence (ie everywhere but here) is to give this photo - the remains of Danish soldiers returning in coffins after being killed in America's war in Afghanistan - as wide an audience as possible. Remind people who we're betraying
