The Air Force is firing transgender service members 18 months before the finish line, wiping out the pensions & healthcare they earned through honorable service. It’s discriminatory, reckless, legally frail, & sends a message to every troop that promises mean nothing.

I really like Bernie Sanders’ elder statesman era.

Unlike too many older politicians who cling to power and perpetuate an outdated political culture, Bernie is actively mentoring the next generation of progressive leaders before he retires.

It’s how it should be.
And it’s working.

As Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi knew her shit, didn't take any shit, and had her shit together.

Mike Johnson, on the other hand, is full of shit, doesn't do shit, and is scared shitless of Trump.

Can the term ‘liberal’ be re-purposed to mean someone who admires human achievements?

Usha, girl...

1) You're smart.
2) You're cute.
3) You have 2 children who will inevitably suffer if your husband keeps doing... whatever this is.

Come to the blue side. We have all the brains, all the culture, ALL the empathy, & we just want your kids to have equal access to all the good stuff. 💙

Independents blame Trump and the GOP for the shutdown by a 2:1 margin.

Trump’s approval with people under 30 has completely cratered.

63% of Americans disapprove of Trump’s management of the federal government.

Kristi Noem is telling bald-faced lies about ICE arrests.

More than 70% of those detained have no criminal convictions.

170+ of those arrested or detained have been American citizens.

So liberal arts just show what humans have accomplished? To promote pride in being a human.
Does that mean MAGA, who don’t like liberals, don’t really like people?

Mike Johnson, Britt today on talk shows.
Each spoke so fast it reminded me of used car salesmen.
Do they do that to prevent the other person from speaking?

Happy World Bread Day! One of my favourite etymologies is that the words "Lady" and "Lord" come from Old English "hlafdige" and "hlafweard," essentially meaning "one who makes the bread" and "one who guards the bread"

An English lesson for the American swing voter:

Tenses:

- He lied
- He is lying
- He will lie
- He lies
- He has lied
- He was lying
- He had lied
- He will have lied

Next, we will learn the meaning of the words:

- democracy
- freedom
- eggs
