I don’t want to abolish police, but I NEED police accountability and I need police to actually be dedicated to solving real crimes and putting away real criminals, not just to harass protesters, journalists and immigrants.

I want a police force that works and is accountable to the people.
Police have access to massive surveillance networks that track the public whether they are suspects or not. That means probably for every 1 officer caught using the system to harass or spy on people they have feuds with, ex's, activists, journalists, there are probably 100 more we don't know about.

If it saves lives, Republicans oppose it.

I won’t get over it but jailing the people who did this to our country will go a long way to finding some peace.
No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

To anyone who thinks it’s an “exaggeration” that the rule of law is in danger…

U.S. Senator Mark Kelly is being investigated for the “crime” of telling people not to commit crimes.

We’ve fallen far.

It’s so beautifully heartening to read the words of someone who cares about words and meaning and the world.

This is what “saying it like it is” really means.

I encourage all to read the whole thing

Impeach, convict, remove.

And if our current leaders won’t do it, they need to step aside for people who will.

reminder that Trump is actually just kinda an idiot
Desperate Donny posting this West Point plaque that completely undermines his own attacks on Dem leaders raises serious questions about whether Trump is aware of his surroundings and his own actions, has dementia, or is in any way fit to remain in office.

Hopeful we can do Trump next.
Brazil’s Supreme Court ordered Jair Bolsonaro, former president, to begin serving his 27 year sentence at the Federal Police headquarters—

I find myself simultaneously envious & hopeful the #Trump regime will find a similar moment of accountability

Here is my peace plan for Ukraine/Russia.

1. Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine.

2. Putin goes on trial in the Hague.

3. Russia pays everyone for everything.

4. Trump gets impeached, convicted, and sent to jail.

Thanks for your attention to this matter.

Are we now in a pattern where Democrats start winning after Republicans pay a political price for some policy and then reverse to appease the masses?

For so long we’ve been in a pattern of Dems passing good policy and R’s reaping the political rewards.

A Democratic Party that worked would be contacting every single one of these employees to help them and rally them to a cause, any cause.
Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.

The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.

It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.

Textbook corporate greed.

You have to invent in your mind so many lies for all this to make sense. It’s wild, and kinda sad for the believers.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

More of this. Call out these spineless bastards for exactly what they are: cowards.
Gallego to Hegseth: "You will never ever be half the man that Sen. Kelly is. You, sir, are a coward. And the fact that you are following this order from the president shows how big of a coward you are. I can't wait until you are no longer the secretary of defense."

Keep in mind that this serial liar also promised a hundred times during the campaign that he would be able to end the war “in 24 hours” with “one phone call” to Putin because he has “a great relationship” with him, “knows just what to say to him,” & “it won’t even be that hard.”
