I’ve had this argument so many times with GenZ. Sometimes informed, mostly sheltered and always expecting govt to work for them so what’s the point? How about we think about POC who are marginalized, discriminated and worse and stop the literal bleeding by doing our civic duty?
but what's the point of voting democrats if they're not going to do something about it?
Leftists aren't criticising the Democrats because they're just as bad as Conservatives, Conservatives are worse, but I already won't vote Conservative. Democrats ask leftists votes, but then don't fix problems

Trump wrongly indicted me. I’ll rightly impeach him.
Impeachment isn’t just an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent — but is it working?

You have to go through Congress for anything resembling this type of war. Round up Massie and Paul types and have him removed. The people in this administration are on actual drugs and have insatiable bloodlust and bespoke mental illnesses. He has to go, and everybody with him.

$5000 a Month in Premiums.
So $60,000 a year in PREMIUMS.
Then add a $10,000 deductible.
And another 20% of the bill, ‘cause, you know, the insurance doesn’t pay it all.

Frank Zappa passed away 32 years ago today, & whether the culture realizes it, his music resonates even now. He certainly had an impact on me, & so I did my best to capture why Frank’s voice still matters with my book that is the first to explore the legacy of his political messaging. RIP Maestro.

Fun fact: The US pays Olympic Swimmers an annual stipend of $40k and an additional $37.5k per gold medal earned at the Olympics. Last year this fifth-place collegiate swimmer made more than Michael Phelps did at the height of his career before his endorsements, all for the low price of spewing hate.
NEW: Riley Gaines, the former collegiate swimmer turned right-wing media figure, made $474,313 last year from the conservative nonprofit org, the Leadership Institute. More striking than her total comp was the way it was structured.

ME (thinking): How could an adjudicated rapist, accused of sexual assault by dozens of women, who paid hush money to a porn star, who cheated on all his wives, and comes up 100s of times in The Epstein Files, possibly be a sexual predator?
