Proud defender of those who are marginalized in our society. Believe that immigrants add immense cultural value to our country and are integral to our economy and believe that we must protect the environment and be good stewards of the land we inhabit.

Literally no one is complaining about the prayers.
It's the fact that you and your fellow Republicans actually DO substitute prayers for action, and we're mad as hell about it!
If you weren't substituting prayers for action, how do you explain NO ACTION?!

All MAGA hat, no cattle cuz government is hard — but they damaged the regulators who scrutinized them and it’s not clear how they plundered our data systems. At some point, there should be a massive investigation into what these fly by nights did.

Narcissists want people to be at their level. They use cruelty on others hoping that their enemies will give in to their own dark impulses.
They want permission structures & justifications for their cruelty.
Musk called his critics evil.
Booker showed that this is 0% true.

At a moment when Republicans are leaning in to their worst impulses and their deepest cruelty, I think Booker brought the perfect amount of sensitivity and genuineness required.
I'm sure, furthermore, that it infuriated the Republicans like no other.

Booker: Strom Thurmond’s record always kind of just really irked me. That the longest speech on our great Senate floor was from someone who was trying to stop people like me from being in the Senate. So to surpass that became more important to me.

Firing civil servant employees without due process, disbanding agencies created by statute, etc. Trump is violating laws.
The real question is what can be done about it.
Judges need to quickly rule on cases that come before them. When Trump ignores their orders, contempt imprisonment must follow.

Anybody who experienced Twitter before it became X could see the platform transform in 2024.

All humans want to control themselves. Strong people control themselves via self-mastery.
Weak people don't have self-mastery, so they attempt to control themselves by controlling others.
Autocrats aren't strong; they're dependent & weak. They need to subvert others' freedom to feel self-control.

Crockett: I am tired of the white tears. When you compare me to Marjorie Taylor Greene or me to Lauren Boebert, there is no comparison. So the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so, so much harder

I don’t think there are a lot of Americans who wake up in the morning saying, "Oh, damn Canada. Oh, we should really go after Canada."

The latest travesty of the King: Trump purges the FBI. Besides being illegal, this reeks of corruption. Now, the best and brightest are going to be replaced by his cronies who are inexperienced but will lick his boots and kiss his ring. Our country’s safety is at risk and terrorists know it!

The propaganda at his presser regarding the tragic plane crash last night was staggering and I think all can agree, it fell short of reality. Including this photo from the PC…wondering if my tv color needs adjusted or has finally Trump perfected the ooompa-loompa look?

To all federal workers who received the offer of a buyout today, stay the course. Do not accept the offer if you can! I know you’re afraid, but you are the only hedge left between our democratic republic and an authoritarian regime with the unhinged, dangerous fascist Trump at the helm. Resist!
