So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference not enough people pointing out
I would submit that a gerrymander by politicians saying fuck the voters and one by voters saying fuck the politicians are two wholly different animals
Agree. There are millions of people of faith who are not MAGA.
Stand against genocide of any people, of any culture or religion, anywhere. There are no excuses. There can be no place for eliminationist rhetoric by any one. Human rights are for all people, everywhere, all the time, with no exceptions.
The congressional switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. Put it in your cell phone. Use it. If you're not calling at least once a week, you're not doing your part
Barbra. ❤️
I love Misty Copeland. Her performance at the end of the song from Sinners just brought down the house. Timothy who???
Our GG-Ma’s fought for our right to vote. And to wear pants. Get a drivers license. An education. A divorce. A job, car, sign a lease. We will always have to fight. This is our moment in history.
Concentration camp, man.
It’s a concentration camp.
Especially now… and in concentration camps the majority die from disease.
This is a critical humanitarian crisis.
Every camp must be shut down and every person cared for.
Now.
Democrats don’t have to agree on everything. We just have to agree on one thing:
It’s time to win the general.
James Talarico tonight:
"It doesn't matter what happens in this Republican runoff. We already know who we're running against: The billionaire mega-donors and their corrupt political system. Not any one politician ... We are running against the broken system and the powerful people who broke it."
Following the lies and hatred targeting trans folks during the State of the Union Address, numerous republican House representatives introduced a bill that would create A NATIONWIDE BOOK BAN.
Here's what it is and what to do: bookriot.com/hr7661-book-...
Thank you, U2, for refusing to look away & carving Renee Good’s name into the loudspeaker of the world when the regime would rather bury her twice. “American Obituary” is a siren: a Minneapolis mom, shot in the head by ICE, smeared as a domestic terrorist while the state calls the bullet law & order
For the 2026 primary elections, NPR has collected deadlines and information on how to register to vote — online, in person or by mail — in every U.S. state and territory. n.pr/4ayRPUJ
The largest GOP county in the US, Tarrant Co, TX, suddenly turns blue. And it isn't even close.
The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.
Please take a moment to contact your U.S. Senators and urge them to oppose H.J. Res. 140. A short call, email, or message saying you care about clean water, wilderness, and public lands really does matter. If people stay quiet, this will pass quietly. If enough of us speak up, it doesn’t have to.
Reprehensible
I know she’s polarizing, but she’s passionate. I love her.
I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally
The moment we stop asking for things because we don't yet have the votes is the moment we stop moving forward.
We didn't have the votes when we first asked for marriage equality. Or the Civil Rights Act. Should we stop pushing for Medicare for All because we don't yet have the votes?
With ICE fascists escalating violence in Minnesota, again, see my article on 13 ways to protect yourself when protesting.
Easy but important action items. Be sure you and everyone you know who is protesting is following these rules: www.qasimrashid.com/p/13-rules-t...
No paywall. Share widely.
A friend of mine who is a U.S. Citizen who lives in Poland said he keeps being asked by co-workers, "Have the American people felt enough pain yet, or have they decided they need to feel a whole lot more...before they fucking do something?"
I love Dave
Renee Good should still be here.
She was a beloved child of God, with inherent value and infinite worth.
She was murdered by her own government in broad daylight in what is supposed to be the greatest democracy on the planet.
When you succumb to the cynicism, you are helping Trump. He wants you to think that all is lost, that he is all powerful, and that there is nothing we can do.
The fight for democracy is hard, but it is worth having. We have shown we can stand tall. We have shown we can win.
David Letterman unleashed a blistering critique of CBS News on Friday, accusing the network where he spent more than two decades on the air of abandoning its integrity and handing control to what he described as "idiots.
There’s a special kind of grief many of us are feeling tonight. Because it didn’t have to be like this.
AOC has the unnerving habit of saying exactly what happened.
