If you were alive in the 1980s, this is among the most wonderful & truly incredible things you have ever witnessed in your lifetime.

This works flawlessly as a silent film
I still think this is a strong contender for the funniest video ever uploaded. Absolutely unbeatable comedic rhythm

I think we’ve gotten to the point where the endless footage of fascists attacking people and invading their homes has started to become normalized and holy hell stuff like this is so far beyond okay or tolerable.

These people need to go to jail. Abolish, yes, but call for them to be put away.
Damn‼️ Federal agents blew a door off for this?

Federal agents blasted their way into an LA home where Jenny Ramirez lives with her boyfriend and two kids.

She heard the blast while checking on her 6-year-old, with her 1-year-old in her arms.

Ramirez says everyone in the home is a U.S. citizen.

We feed you.
They hunt us.

This statement from Jonathan Joss's husband is heart breaking.

No, headline writers, he wasn't "killed in an argument with a neighbor." He was *deliberately murdered* for being gay right after his dog was decapitated.

Bet the murderer calls himself a "Christian."

THIS is why Pride is important.

I want every gay person that doesn't realize that transgender rights and gay rights are interconnected to read this story.

A far-right judge just erased your rights against harassment in the workplace along with ours.

We are in this together and there's only one way out.
1. Far right federal judge Matthew Kacsmaryk has just vacated all EEOC protections for gay and trans people in the work place.

He says protections from "being fired" do not mean they are protected from harassment by Title VII.

I cover this insane ruling here.

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents.

What the fuck are we doing here?

ICE agents *know* what they are doing is probably illegal, which is why they try to conceal their identities with scarves and sunglasses. #AmericanGestapo

ICE isn't "deporting" immigrants, it is kidnapping them.

DOGE isn't "fixing" the government, it is dismantling it.

Trump isn't "helping" Americans, he is retaliating against them.

Pam Bondi isn't "upholding" the Constitution, she is ignoring it.

I love paying TurboTax a few hundred bucks every year to figure out how much money I owe the government, which the government already knows, but won't tell me because TurboTax pays legislators to keep the government from telling me. 😻

The inability of the national media to understand this basic point ABOUT AMERICAN CIVICS is simply wild
THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION IS A DEPARTMENT CREATED BY STATUTE; IT CANNOT BE ELIMINATED BY EXECUTIVE ORDER! EXECUTIVE ORDERS CANNOT REPEAL STATUTES! JUST LIKE DEPARTMENTS CANNOT BE CREATED BY EXECUTIVE ORDER!

she shouts into the void
BREAKING: The White House is preparing an executive order to eliminate the Department of Education, two sources familiar with the plans tell NBC News.

This should be 25th amendment level conduct. The president ordered water to be released from a random dam in California nowhere near the wildfires and then claimed it would help. That’s literally Mad King behavior.

As I struggle to deal with what my country has shown itself to be, l learn my little lines and do my little shows. If you're in the greater Palm Springs area this December come see me as Harry in COMPANY @revolutionstagecompany. Then, in March, you can see me as Michael/Dorothy in TOOTSIE @dtwipac
