Don’t let the bastards grind you down.

Speak up, speak out, and push back.

Gotta say it's mindblowing to me that the Brown shooter is still at large and they don't even seem to have identified who they're looking for.

Ok people. I'm going to reiterate what I have said before: be safe out there. If something feels off, leave right then. Don't try to rationalize, just go.

I'm talking about the recent violence, but also about illegal ICE activities.

Please, please, be safe out there

A million Muslims live in New York City. We belong here, as does every other New Yorker.

This is vile Islamophobia from the Councilwoman and it has no place in our city.

Embarrassing and shameful response from an American President. This is sick stuff.

Speaker Johnson, will you condemn these comments or just say you have not seen or heard them?

Last week Donald Trump was polling at 31%. Mocking Rob Reiner’s passing is going to send him into the 20’s, and his grip on power will be broken. All of a sudden everyone will admit they’ve always hated him.

Governor J.B. Pritzker:

“We’re a nation mostly of immigrants — that is who we are fundamentally at our core. We ought to always be that, it’s what’s made our country great — Immigrants are the most entrepreneurial. Immigrants are the most grateful & patriotic”

Although Trump’s abhorrent political beliefs are ultimately more damaging to the nation, his reprehensible personality is more shocking to me on a personal level.

I can’t fathom how anyone can support someone who is so obviously a terrible human being.

Even half of this post would have caused an incredible outcry in the U.S. not long ago. People would have questioned Trump's sanity... what a sick man 🤮

I dunno, I’m thinking the bigger issue is not having an insane sick fuck POTUS with insane sick fuck thoughts.

Not that the insane sick fuck POTUS needs to kept his insane sick fuck-ness to himself.

I’ve been guilty of this too, but when I read people say, even though they’re trying to be nice, like “I disagree with Rob Reiner politically, but I am sad by his loss.”

Why do we always feel the need to talk about whether we agreed with somebody politically or not?
