This is very moving. Messages to a Pennsylvania congresswoman and former Air Force officer who is among the six Democrats being attacked by Trump and his henchmen for telling troops they should not obey illegal orders.
Fear is contagious, but so is courage. I remain steadfast in my oath to the Constitution and am grateful to those across the nation who stand with us. Don't give up the ship.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.
Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel
Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

in light of the kimmel news, just a reminder that a few days ago a prominent fox news host literally called for killing homeless people. right afterward, someone shot up a couple homeless encampments.

that fox news host still has his job.
Brian Kilmeade endorses euthanizing homeless people: "Involuntary lethal injection, or something. Just kill them."

‘Terms like “woke,” “critical race theory,” or “diversity, equity, and inclusion” didn’t come out of Congress, they migrated from leftist activist or academic spaces… repeated endlessly by Republicans more-so than Democrats, but in a way to complain that Democrats had been using them too much.’

The rich are partying on yachts and building bunkers while the poor are drowning in floods, fleeing bombs, working three jobs to survive. they flaunt their wealth like it’s harmless. but in a world on fire, luxury is violence. no one should live like a god while others can’t drink clean

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles.

Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

The Democrat running against Donald Trump’s ball washer Lindsey Graham is @leejohnsonforsc.com. Throw him a follow.
Lindsey Graham has played golf with Donald Trump more times than he’s held town halls in South Carolina. If only his constituents got as much attention as Trump’s tee time…and whatever they do on the back 9 together.

people keep calling RFK Jr. and anti-vaxers "eugenicists" and, while I have a very low opinion of the genocidal pseudoscience of eugenics, I have to object and say that what they believe is actually far stupider?
RFK Jr talking about the need for doctors to know how to treat measles for those who are unvaccinated.

“Only very sick kids should die from measles.”

No. They shouldn’t. That was the point of the vaccine. We eradicated the virus so children didn’t die.

Sick & disabled kids are not expendable!
