Purity is for drinking water, people. Pluralistic democracy, rule of law & freedom of speech - everything good flows from there. And challenge fascism at every turn.

Two babies were born in New York within a year of each other, soon after WWII.

One, Rob Reiner, lived a life of humanity and achievement. He brought us delight and joy. His memory will be a blessing.

The other, Donald Trump, will be remembered as an embarrassment to our nation.

If someone in the White House press corps doesn't ask Trump today why he's so scared of strong women, they should all go home.

Democrats would be crazy not to make this comment super-famous tomorrow when the Senate debates health care. Republicans don’t want you to be cared for as a patient when you’re sick. They think of you as a “consumer”—and tough luck if you don’t have the money for the care you need.
Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

"Sir, we're getting a lot of buzz from your comments attacking that beloved director who was slain. Whom should we go after next?"

"Maybe an astronaut?"

"Brilliant, sir. Everyone hates them."

Many things have been said about this article already.

But the most striking thing to me is that it reads like it was written by someone who has never done science, and does not understand at all what is hard about it. Or what makes for really innovative work

"No mainstream reporter has the stomach to say, 'By the way, this administration lies all the time and we should assume this is a lie too' after every unsupported statement." They should, because it's true.

GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing

BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

THOMPSON: What does that mean?

Antifa is an imaginary scam of the MAGA zealots. There is not now, nor has there ever been, any actual organization with that name. The true meaning of “Antifa” is DEMOCRACY🇺🇸. Any other definition is not based on reality🔥. It represents a “false flag” diversion

A heroic moment in this anti-semitic tragedy.

The hero here is a 43 yo Lebanese immigrant and fruit stand owner named
Ahmed Al Ahmed who was shot twice in the arm (apparently bt the other gunman) after wrestling the gun away.

He will be fine according to a relative.

When I wrote below that we, the forces of democracy and freedom, are going to win, it was based on this.

Autocrats need allies to help them consolidate power. That doesn't happen when they're weak and bleeding support. He's now losing ground w his own base. www.ifyoucankeepit.org/p/we-are-goi...

The new Kardashian but somehow even more vile & grifty.
25 posts in 3 days from CBS featuring Bari Weiss with Erika Kirk.

Or maybe Erika Kirk with Bari Weiss - it’s hard to tell who was supposed to be the one featured in all this.

Day 381 of nonstop protests in Georgia. The Russia backed Georgian Dream introduced a new law to curb unsanctioned protests.

Protestors continue to resist daily with no sign of stopping in the face of repression and tyranny. #3E

Major advertisers appeared to sit out a new CBS News town hall telecast Saturday, moderated by Bari Weiss and featuring an interview with Erika Kirk.

Lack of Madison Avenue support could challenge the viability of the format, which Weiss wants to expand

The horrific tragedy at Brown University is the 389th mass shooting this year and the 230th gun incident on school grounds so far this year.

This is not normal and we don't have to live this way.

Here’s Donald Trump one month ago, hosting President al-Sharaa of Syria in the Oval Office and praising him as a “major advocate” of peace in the Middle East

al-Sharaa claims this area was outside of his control and the attack was done by ISIS

But Trump claimed he destroyed ISIS in his first term

Today, I spoke with Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his wife, Jennifer. In April, when I met with him in El Salvador, Trump said he would never set foot in the U.S. again.

This case has never been about one man alone; if the govt can violate the constitutional rights of one, all our rights are threatened.
