Always Blue. Read banned books. "These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the Sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it NOW, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman."

Throwback to 11/21/2019, one of the biggest thrills of my life.

I had a QT of this video pinned on Twitter for the past 5 years. I'm glad I'm able to bring it with me over here.

Donald Trump is weaponizing the DOJ against his political opponents.

Meanwhile, he's gutting the Justice Department’s Public Integrity Section which assists U.S. attorneys’ offices around the country with investigating crooked government officials.

"Drain the swamp."

🚨 Retired Major Richard Ojeda explains the danger of “floating the use of the 82nd Airborne Division on American soil.” His message needs to be heard. Veterans, retired and active, are aware of the Posse Comitatus Act. The U.S. military is not to attack our own citizens. 1/2

Republicans are scared AF about #NoKings Day -- calling it a "Hate America Rally" a bunch of "radical left terrorists" lol

So, let's be sure we show the communities we gather in that WE LOVE AMERICA and that's why we are taking it to the streets

This is not a border crossing.
There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior.

This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

Louisiana deserves better representation than this.

This guy would have called a dancing pelican peacefully protesting the BP oil spill an anarchist.

Consider the source. This is so absurd and ridiculous.

China just reminded us: power isn’t about missiles, it’s about minerals. The U.S. built its strength on global supply chains. Now that dependence is leverage.
