Dear World,

We see it and are doing our best to stop it. We need your help: don’t come here, don’t invite the President to your countries, don’t send your athletes or artists, don’t buy our stuff. And let us in if we need asylum.

A single nuclear warhead, of unknown origin, is heading toward the U.S. mainland in Kathryn Bigelow's new Netflix film. It's an unnerving scenario — but it's also thrilling to watch. n.pr/48przga

in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa

Hey Dems in DC — since Little
Mikey has extended vacation for the House & told Republicans not to hold Town Halls… GO FOR IT!

Hold Town Halls in their districts (or adjacent).
