higgledy-piggledy
bones in a pile
which were beloved
which were reviled
sort them and stack them
like nobody cares
craft chandeliers
for the supplicant's stares

If they truly believed their policies were popular, they wouldn’t try so hard to win by gerrymandering the maps everywhere.

A tweet from Wiley Nickel reads: “North Carolina Republicans are saying the quiet part out loud. Openly admitting to drawing a congressional map for Donald Trump. It’s not just politics — it’s corruption. North Carolinians deserve free and fair elections, not gerrymandered districts.” Below, a video still shows a man speaking at a podium with yellow caption text reading: “Republicans hold a razor thin margin in the United States.”

Yesterday, Stephen Miller questioned details re 170+ Americans detained by immigration agents.

“Abject lies,” he wrote.

Here’s the thing: We tracked, catalogued, and compiled every one of those 170+ cases.

Because...we do our homework.

Trump has launched seven deadly strikes in the Caribbean Sea.

Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.

He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.

A tweet from Lu for Alaska reads: “NW Alaska evacuating in case you watch mainstream news and don’t know what’s happening up here.” The attached image shows the inside of a large military cargo plane packed with people sitting on the floor, many wearing coats and holding children, as they appear to be in the process of evacuation.

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that.

No phones, no staff, nothing.

I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!

Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)
