Cake has been amazing on social media. Not only posting news and anti-Trump memes, but always, ALWAYS including a call to action and including the switchboard phone number. For Americans wringing their hands and asking what to do, this is a simple and easy first step.
The congressional switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. Put it in your cell phone. Use it. If you're not calling at least once a week, you're not doing your part.
It would be so cool if the United States Congress still existed.

Stop saying that all Schumer and Jeffries ever do is write strongly worded letters. Bullshit. They're not strongly worded at all.

Way too many Americans on the /r/political threads today whose frustration about the Venezuela situation boils down to, "Damnit, now there's going to be ANOTHER flood of illegal immigrants into the US!"

If you don't think the capture of Nicolas Maduro has made the world safer, just remember how the death of Saddam Hussein brought stability to the region and a lasting peace to the world.

I promised myself I'd start posting more art this year - the incredible work of others found online, and also some of my own, (more prosaic) stuff. Here's one that is decidedly not mine: I have neither the talent nor the willpower to resist eating my finished canvas. www.facebook.com/reel/8258272...

starting in six weeks or so, you will hear right wing and centrist commentators on cable news, podcasts etc start to refer to Mamdani as if it's obvious that he's failed, extremely unpopular etc. its very important in order for their plot to succeed that any left wing pol be discredited

Drove home along ice-rink roads and noticed all the pedestrians in this stance (but definitely not running!) Be safe out there, Toronto!

they will yell at those who correctly point out that her views are abhorrent by screaming "UNITED FRONT" and "YOU NEED A BIG TENT TO FIGHT FASCISM." Comrades, these people are not fighting anything especially fascism.

Mira promising more blessings for voting made me cackle. Somewhere in Staten Island a Republican is nailing 95 candidate fliers to a door.

In less than a week, I will be sworn in as the next mayor of New York City. It was only possible because of the more than 100,000 people who volunteered on our campaign. Here’s a story about one of them, my mother.

They're all starting to dress like him. As if they couldn't get any creepier.
GOP operatives Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman, convicted election fraudsters, were paid $960,000 in the second quarter to secure a pardon for a former nursing-home operator who defrauded the government of $38 million. Trump pardoned the man, Joseph Schwartz, last month.
