No MAGA!!! I try not to doomscroll and rage share; I fail most days. Progressive. Global human rights is not a pipedream. I love the Hawkeyes, Bills, and Cubs. I dig Bob's Burgers, horror, Star Wars, and true crime shows. I am a bibliophile!!!

Not even Donald Trump has been a greater traitor to this country. That distinction belongs to John Roberts.

I hope this signals an actual change but until then, an enemy of my enemy is still my enemy. She needs to completely denounce Trump and the MAGA movement.

It's not a call to violence to say put the damn cameras down and help out someone being kidnapped.

We're just going to keep recording people thrown to the ground, get bound, and carried away? Those damn signs next Saturday better be extra damn spicy.

These *men* showed up at this market and grabbed the owner for no reason dressed in plain clothes with no identification.

They threw him to the ground as a Combat Vet shopping there calls the police on them! There was no warrant and he was a citizen.

Why Republicans’ attempts to kill Obamacare keep backfiring

The White House and some Republicans are growing nervous that Democrats’ demand to boost Obamacare as part of a government funding bill has salience with voters.

At this point I think it's safe to assume that Bill Belichick is the biggest fraud in coaching history. When he's the "guy" it's a losing record. Bill Parcells and Tom Brady are the only reason this guy is who he is.

The College GameDay cast bent over backwards to defend Bill Belichick after his disastrous start at UNC.

'College GameDay' crew does everything possible to defend Bill Belichick

The College GameDay crew was somehow full of optimism for Bill Belichick and North Carolina after his disastrous start.

The hostage release is a reminder of how bad the Dems are at politics. Not only did Biden refuse to force this deal on Netanyahu & thereby help Harris win, but most people aren’t even aware that Biden got way more Israeli hostages (over 100) released with his 2023 ceasefire than Trump did with his.

It is amazing that the hostages are finally being released. As long as Netanyahu remains in power, there will be no peace. He is the agitator. He is a war criminal. This is nothing but lipstick on a pig.

Governor JB Pritzker @govpritzker.illinois.gov · 4h

After two long years being held captive by Hamas, the 20 living Israeli hostages were released and are finally home.

There’s still much work that remains to ensure lasting peace but the hostage release and ceasefire serve as critical steps toward closure and hope for the future.

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

I don't know, fuck stick. Maybe stop everything you're doing. Reverse everything that you've done. Resign, and take accountability. However, since there is no afterlife you would simply cease to exist. Forgotten in a 100 years. That honestly can't happen soon enough.

Trump: "I don't think there's anything that's gonna get me in heaven. I think I'm not maybe heaven bound. I may be in heaven right now as we fly on Air Force One. I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to make heaven."

"Men are victims too.”

When have you ever advocated for men except for when women are sharing their own experiences?

Our troops are being used against American citizens right now. I don't give a flying fuck if they're being paid.

Rep. Ted Lieu @reptedlieu.bsky.social · 4d

Some of our troops are in high-risk missions. Do you want them thinking about whether they’re going to get paid and can take care of their family?

You don’t want them focused on that. That’s going to hurt our national security.

Stop the Republican shutdown. Pay our troops.
