Since the president has signed an EO making English the official language of the United States, here is the first non-English copy of the Declaration of Independence, printed in German just days after July 4, 1776. We have always been multilingual.

It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation.
I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!

I’m tired of waking up every day more humiliated than the last.
I have never been more ashamed of my country.
If you are from elsewhere and are looking in on America right now, please know that most of us are fully opposed to this administration.
Every day it gets worse.

“The Democrats didn’t do enough on Gaza, so I withheld my vote to make a statement.”
“Well, Trump won and now he’s gonna destroy Gaza.”
“Yep. We’re paying the price for the Democrats’ incompetence.”
“‘We?’ The Gazans are paying the price, not us”

Caitlyn Jenner is not "fair game." You don't get to deadname here and then turn around and pretend you're doing it in support of me.
If you have any impulse to do that, I'll say what David Lynch said: fix your hearts or die.

First day in office and Trump rolls back affordable drug prices.
The only people who will benefit in Trump’s America are the parasitic class—the billionaire oligarchs.
Ordinary people will suffer and lose *even more money* to satiate the greed of the wealthy & powerful.
Welcome to the 4th Reich.

No guys, go ahead! You should all start doing the “Roman salute” out in public.
Go ahead and do it.
Do it at your job.
Do it in bars & clubs.
Do it everywhere.
You definitely won’t earn yourself a curb kiss in the process.
I’m begging y’all…

No. An executive order cannot simply overturn a Supreme Court ruling. They know that. That’s not the goal. They want three things: (1) to force the current Court to reinterpret the 14th amendment; (2) to test the limits of the executive-judiciary construct; and (3) to humiliate Kamala and her legacy

Please do not be so shortsighted in what you think is a gotcha moment that you end up adding to the harm.

While mainstream media is trying to suppress that salute and MAGA is lying about it, we all should post it over and over again. Truth and information are crucial

Guys. We know they’re Nazis. We know what the nazi salute looks like. It doesn’t need to be shared anymore.
And if you need to show it to prove it’s a nazi salute, it might be a good idea to examine who you’re around that would need said proof.

I dedicated years of my life to reporting on January 6 and exposing what happened. I was there that day, co-wrote a book, and published a series of major stories on my own, for Rolling Stone, and for TPM.
I hope it mattered. I hope history will remember and understand what happened.
