Retired crayon muncher and just like that, Bob’s your uncle. I don’t always whoop, but when I do, there it is.

FIVE YEARS & he has not been held accountable for one of the most disgraceful events in this nation's history.
Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

Adamantly against our military reducing the pension of any soldier without the process afforded citizens. Targeting individual citizens long after they’ve served is wrong and anti-democratic. Obviously. I don’t know why this needs to be said.

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.

Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.

Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.

It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

That’s right, Congress. Keep letting him do anything he wants, unchecked. Keep showing the country (and the world) what total feckless pussies you are. Well done.

Exactly this, in addition to their corporate corrupt oligarchs who are manipulating news because they are more concerned about making a buck than living up to the constitutional protections we gave them to report the truth.
So many in media are ill-equipped to interview officials about what’s happening because they begin with the presumption of legitimacy and don’t know enough about history or U.S. foreign policy to foment intelligent pushback and hold officials accountable.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.

The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

It hurts me, deep down in the depths of my soul to know this is absolutely true
"Effective secretaries empower senior military leaders to provide candid advice. They expect disagreement. They understand that professional tension is not insubordination." Sure would be nice to have one right now.
It Was a Bad Year for the American Military
No one should be surprised.

Start talking to the teens in your life that will be 18 by midterms & get them registered early! Help a friend, family member, or co-worker to get registered. Offer rides to people who want to vote in person. We all need to work together so we can regain control of the house & senate

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.
The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.
