Went to see Phantom of the Opera tonight in Detroit after talking it up to my husband for years now. Had to drag him to see this great fantastic performance… and our $250 seats were in an audio dead zone. It was like watching a talkie with a loud orchestra. 😭

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

The president tweets about an observer being a gunman for having a gun holstered as he held his phone to record ICE.
Would he say the same about the 2A obsessed militia members that open carrying AR-15s in Walmarts across America as we grocery shop with our kids?

The Republican position now appears to be that you have a constitutional right to openly carry a gun in public, unless you do so while expressing a view that the government dislikes, in which case the secret police can shoot you to death on the spot.
Minneapolis police chief Brian O'Hara says that the victim was a 37-year-old white man and US citizen with no criminal record and that he was a legally permitted gun owner.

Ignore the evidence of your eyes and ears, says the leader of The Party. Let me TELL you what to believe happened.
Mike Johnson: "Because we know that support for American families doesn't end at birth, our policies reflect this. With the Working Families Tax Cut we passed the most pro-life and pro-family legislation that has been signed into law in decades."

"We had run almost 1,000 simulations, and between $3 and $4 is a fair number if you can have access to that food. I just saw new numbers that were run: a full day, meaning 3 full square meals and a snack, is about $15.64."
