I wish that more organizations would embed alt-text in their infographics. I try hard to add image descriptions when posting calls-to-action with graphics, but often run out of space. Plus, it is more typing for my arthritic, polio-damaged fingers. My polio was wild caught in 1954, btw

Trying to decide which of my No Blood For Oil signs to bring out. The one from Bush 41? Bush 43? The other one from Bush 43?

These chucklefucks are all the same: they can't govern, and when the stupid people who voted for them start to notice their failure, here comes the lawless invasion.

You’re asking why I, as a nurse, am not treating my patients according to how they voted? The day I do that is the day I need to leave healthcare.

If Trump's lackeys in Congress won't hold him accountable, then it will be up to the voters. The Working Families Party is committed to recruiting and running candidates who will put working people first, not billionaires or big oil. workingfamilies.org/2026/01/work...

Donald Trump's illegal attack on Venezuela isn't about drug trafficking. It's a stunt to distract from his failures and enrich his friends and backers in big oil.

Incidentally, as far as messaging and strategy, pretty much anytime we test a process argument (i.e. they didn't follow the rules) it is less convincing & far less galvanizing than outcome argument (i.e. it's going to result in this fucked up evil) with voters. Yes, swing voters too.

I am a leftist and I refuse to accept the politics of cruelty employed by the right. If there is no material difference between us and them, then we cannot claim to be better than them, because we won’t be. People’s lives matter, period.

Yeah this is exactly how I feel
Remember how appalled we all were in 2022 when Russia completely unprovoked attacked Ukraine? That is what we’re doing tonight with Venezuela. We are the bad guys here. Everyone who supports this is supporting unprovoked murder. Fuck every last one of them

Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.

Can't help but feel like this is one of the reasons why the Constitution says If a dude in office does an insurrection, don't let that motherfucker hold office again

Bc clearly they cannot be trusted with power & control over the levers of government, & they do not care about democratic constraints

I am so glad I have @PBS Passport because watching Texas Parks & Wildlife episodes & Rodgers & Hammerstein 80th celebration is calming my hypertension. Otherwise, I might stroke out.

The appropriate Democratic response is that the president is out of control.

You don’t need to repeat his Maduro talking points. Stop being pussies.
