If you set fire to your house, it's not the fault of the previous owner.

SOTU seats are not assigned. There are general seating areas for each body (House, Senate, SCOTUS,etc) but there are honored seats for each party’s leadership and they’re even trying to squat those.

If it doesn’t sort out, be aware you may see applause on both sides of the aisle but they may be GOP

Angie Stone and Josh Groban singing “The Prayer” was not on my bingo card but my god just listen to their voices blend. 🥺

Can you all PLEASE stop posting on what Kanye West does?

Especially not to share his website and imagery.

Why do we need to know?
He's not worth our attention.

Before folks start comparing this to European autocracies, pause and ask why so many folks - Black and white - didn’t know about the Tulsa Race Massacre. Or the Wilmington Coup. Or the Colfax Massacre. Or the Elaine, Arkansas massacre.

Erasure has been a key tactic of white supremacy. Right here.
NEW: The removal of the DOJ’s Jan. 6 database signals the Trump administration’s intention to not only spare his supporters any further consequences for their role in the riot, but to erase the event from the record.

Memory-Holing Jan. 6: What Happens When You Try to Make History Vanish?

In the Wilmington Coup the white mob STARTED WITH THE THRIVING BLACK NEWSPAPER OFFICES. They killed the journalists & burned that building FIRST.

No they don’t. Canada and Mexico want none of this. They want the president of the United States to respect and abide by the trade treaty he negotiated with them - and not make up bogus pretexts for plunging us all into a gratuitous no win economic debacle.

Happy Black History Month New Year! As a 2x retiree. I don't miss the phony celebrations. They only wanted our food (via potlucks) anyway. I've been celebrating since it was Black History Week.

If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.

“It’s a marathon, not a sprint” is one of those cliches that is based in truth. Rest. Play. Create. Take care of yourselves and your communities. Seek joy in the madness.

We need to dream about different - and sustainable - ways of resisting. And that requires rest.

Make your local communities better in the next four years. Work on what you can control. Support local government campaigns. Stay up on local issues. Read books. Support your public library. Plant native plants. Turn your yard into a forest. Love often and a lot. Build community.

And finally - as the new administration takes office, online spaces will become less & less safe for different kinds of organizing & we ALL need to be talking face to face with each other about the real & present danger ahead.

Everything we post is evidence of something. Remember that.
