Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice

Please listen to every Californian telling you Gavin Newsom is a terrible choice and you should not anoint him the Democratic nominee for 2028.
The only thing Gavin Newsom actually cares about is Gavin Newsom. He will sacrifice anyone and anything you care about for his political ambitions.

They had one actually decent policy change that would be largely symbolic because no one would enforce it and they let it slide anyway.

I take consolation in this severe humiliation of Mike Johnson. Lmao
Trump: "Mike Johnson is a very religious person. He does not hide it. He'll say to me sometimes at lunch, 'Sir, may we pray.' I'll say, 'Excuse me? We're having lunch.'"

Nobody talks about this: babies are genderless. Nothing has taught me more about gender being a social construct than having a baby. Gender is absolutely meaningless in the context of a baby.
Babies are an empty bucket, you have to do the work of pouring gender into it.

In 2017 I wrote a series of lectures around a curated series of films for a local museum that was about the way toxic masculinity is the primary driver of fascism and especially contemporary American fascism. It's more true than ever, looking at the current political landscape.

Again, not once has the media asked “Can we afford ICE?” the way they obsessed about affordability with Biden’s student loan debt relief or Obama’s health care plan. And the media surely isn’t going to ask “Can we afford this?” about this crazy military spending increase 🤔🤷♂️

Explaining to future generations that one thing that collapsed the economy were the credible institutions heavily invested in a commodity that had zero value whatsoever because everyone with real wealth was too old to understand tech and just assumed that any new tech thing was a good investment.

This woman has shown more courage than the nominal leaders of the Democratic Party.
Martinez: "[I] sat in federal court and watched from 20 feet away as the border patrol agent who attempted to kill me testified at a hearing. Agent Charles Exum—Charles Exum, my attempted executioner was Charles Exum—I hope the government does not consider my use of his name here to be...doxxing."

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:
End the roving patrols and racial profiling.
Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.
Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.
