We elected you to Congress to be a check on executive power, not a spectator.
You swore an oath to defend the Constitution, not to protect a man who threatens democracy, threatens war, and threatens the future.
Stop hiding behind voters.
Stop punting responsibility.
DO YOUR JOBS.👇
Science is good. We should fund it.
A photo of a sign next to a pond and wildflowers, with trees in the background, saying: Developers see 'unused land'. Wildlife sees the last place to stay alive.
Yes, human use is not the only use - and all uses are interdependent.
I hate war. I hate murder. I hate when my government murders other people in my name. I hate when my government prepares to round up young men in my country to go murder people in another country. Again, it’s wrong. It’s immoral. It shouldn’t be happening. No excuses.
When you drop a bomb on civilians, I think that’s murder. I don’t really care for any justifications. They’re people. The enormity of the loss is devastating and it’s easier for some people to look away. But for other people, that’s their family. Their children. It’s just sickening and so wrong.
If we bought a few less bombs, we could probably afford nice things.
One thing I'd like to see from the next presidency would be to appoint a special commission to prepare a report on the actual cost to defend the United States from attack.
Not foreign wars.
Just the cost to defend this country.
It’s that time of year again where I wish someone in charge of flipping the system to AC was aware of climate change.
The question that broke America fundamentally was ‘do all people deserve basic rights?’
This question was too hard for us. Too hard for our leadership. It still is.
So now all of our rights are in jeopardy.
If you have ICE PreCheck they come to your home to beat you up before you’ve left for the airport.
I get yelled at for saying this but for many hundreds of years people went to university not to get diplomas or be employable but because immersion in the humanities was considered foundational to a good life, and school must return to its original purpose: the joy of learning.
Difficult to emphasize just how much a generation of kids has been taught that being dishonest, superficial, and narcissistic is the pathway to attention and therefore success
oh good i was worried it was white supremacy and capitalism
Trump’s war will easily cost more than it would have cost to extend the ACA tax credits.
Republicans are telling the American people—there is always money for war, always money for billionaire tax breaks.
Just never any money for health care or families here at home.
I'm begging my fellow politicians, Illinoisans, and Americans to realize that right now, we aren't fighting over policy or political party.
We're fighting over whether we're going to be a country rooted in empathy and kindness — or one rooted in cruelty and rage.
Once again the dividing lines turn out to be “has principles” vs. “no principles“
What's funny is I low key think she was holding out for a chance with Rob. Kind of. And he's like ahh no I'm taken now
Wanted them to win so bad!! And they got it right!
The winner(s) deserved it though (don't want to include too many spoilers). They played such a great game
Feels like one of the biggest problem of our time is that we’re so well connected digitally, but feel more disconnected than ever, and we have access to more and more information but are less and less well informed.
Exactly! We have the resources to feed people, to ensure they are healthy. Why can't we use the capital and resources to help rather than destroy!?
As a country and as a world, we produce far more than we need.
It's the mark of a righteous man that, when given more than he needs, he builds a longer table, not a higher fence.
Like I can’t get around how the basic psychological basis of ALL IS this
Is that
Some people believe the goal of life is to find out who they can exploit and abuse .
And people want us to argue about it rather than to push them back into the ocean
A photo of an ice cream machine with a sign reading, "Anything is possible with ice cream." Beneath that is a hand lettered sign reading, "No ice cream".
2026 basically
A tweet from iky_fwjett that reads "hard to find the balance between educating yourself on current events and not making yourself so indescribably sad that you can't properly function"
Sometimes all you have to hold on to is that you're not the only one feeling this way.
doubles luge. one guy lays on his back on the luge sled and the second guy lays on his back on top of the first guy
been watching the olympics and i think i found a solution to the male loneliness crisis
Sorry to be Radical Left but I don't think we should put people who haven't committed a crime, and aren't even accused of committing a crime, into any sort of "Detention"
Always a great sign for how things are going in your country when 21-year-olds are like “hey, I innovated a system to play bagpipes in tear gas”
Tackling not 1 but 2 players!
