Text: Hey conservatives, are you proud of your support for Charlie Kirk? If so, be sure to tell YOUR employer how much you admire the man who said "we made a huge mistake when we passed the Civil Rights Act". And then quote him verbatim on other issues of race, gender, and politics. Let us all know how that conversation goes.

Text: Call me crazy but I don't think we should spend 92 MILLION DOLLARS on a military parade honoring a draft dodger while a single veteran needs healthcare, food, or housing that they can't afford.

A cartoon. A small caricature of Trump is unrolling a Nazi flag over the U.S. flag, with the words "Project 2025" visible on the part that has not yet been unrolled. Above this is a sign that reads, "You were warned".

Image of a Twitter message from Betty Bowers. The text reads: I learned this week that you can put our troops' lives in danger, compromise our national security, and violate the Espionage Act. And the government will do nothing. But if you write an editorial for your school newspaper that Trump doesn't like, you will be abducted on the street and disappeared.

An image spoofing the meme-image of Jesus comforting Donald Trump. In this version, he is being comforted by the ghost of Adolf Hitler, who is saying “Stay strong. They hated me too.”

It's not disloyal to say that our Democratic party needs new leadership. It's loyalty to this country and to the promise of a better tomorrow. Democrats are standing with Chuck Schumer the way the stood with Merrick Garland and the result will be the same. We must change course.

Picture of a crowd pushing down a domino labeled “Tesla”, in turn pushing down dominos labeled “Elon”, “Trump”, “Republicans”, and “Russians”.

The Yosemite National Park's annual budget is about $30 million dollars. Trump spent $30 million dollars in the last month just visiting the Super Bowl and Daytona 500. I'd say leave the parks open and have him turn on the TV. But what do I know about government efficiency?

Ian Fleming’s original James Bond novels haven’t aged well. For example, Moonraker — published almost exactly 70 years ago in April 1955 — features a villain who’s a super-rich industrialist and rocket-maker seeking to cause chaos because he’s a secret Nazi. Such a silly idea!

This picture from an FBI office sums it up pretty well:
Picture of a person using gray paint and a paint roller to cover words like “fairness,” “integrity,” “leadership,” and “compassion” at an FBI building.

Next time a Republican tells you that "Social Security is broke," remind them that pres. Bush "borrowed" $1.37 TRILLION of Social Security surplus revenue to pay for his tax cuts for the rich and his war in Iraq... and never paid it back.

Image reads: "Pro tip: If you said NOTHING when Donald Trump pardoned donors, cronies, extended family members, and war criminals, then sit down and shut up about Joe Biden pardoning his own son. JUST SHUT UP!"

Screen-shot of a Twitter message: "Elon Musk spent $200 million to elect Donald Trump. His net worth has jumped $70 billion since Election Day. That's a 34,900% ROI. Your reminder that billionaires buy elections to make money, not because they care about politics or the working class."

Image is of George Takei commenting on a screen-shot from Twitter. The copied tweet reads: "If you're wondering why Prime Minister Justin Trudeau flew to Florida to meet with Donald Trump, it's because Canada doesn't allow convicted felons into the country."

Hey friends. It's important that you understand this. If someone says something bigoted around you; it is a social test. They are seeing how much resistance they will get (especially from those they consider a peer) for their viewpoint. They are also feeling out whether you are one of their in-group. Discomfort is not condemnation. Silence is not condemnation. Walking away is not a condemnation. It is complicity. And it teaches bigots that there won't be consequences for their bigotry.

Image is of a Time Magazine cover. The cover shows the U.S. Whitehouse being slowly morphed into red, with the decorations of the Russian Kremlin in place of the dome. A comment on the image reads, "Spot on."

A political cartoon, featuring a caricature of Elon Musk in a swimming pool shaped like the X/Twitter bird icon. There is yellow surrounding Musk, implying that he has urinated in the pool. People around the a running away in horror.

If every time I condemn patriarchy, nationalism, white supremacy, and homophobia you assume I'm condemning Christians, that tells me all I need to know about your version of "Christianity."

I'm sick of watching the Democrats bring a rule book to a street fight.
