@steter He may have donated $50 million to her (I guess he did?) but overall his attitude and that of many other billionaires is pretty weak sauce, even if they didn't outright support Trump.
Meanwhile some of the cops are treating us like we're all going to start throwing Molotov cocktails. Yeah, a bunch of veterans and women in cheeky resistance shirts, and senior citizens, some in wheelchairs, are going to start torching things. 🤦🏼♀️
FFS, a lot of those cops are veterans and we're trying to save the VA.
Here Rev. Benjamin Cremer describes the arrest of the heroic Rev. William J Barber, who was exercising his right to pray for God's justice in the Rotunda.
Regardless of religious/atheist views, the courage and passion of Reverend Barber are what the American people hope for in our leaders.
The regime pardoned the people who defecated and broke windows and assaulted cops in the Capitol. But they arrest a priest who is praying for the people's welfare.
It should not take a sit in to get the media to cover two members of Congress discussing urgent matters of healthcare, but since it does, God bless these guys.
REAL ID workshop going on tomorrow evening in Salt Lake City #Utah to thwart the SAVE Act (or, as Eric Swalwell calls it, the "Save Republicans' Asses Act.") There will be FREE passport photos taken, as well as coaching on getting identity documents.
Reupping this to remind us all that these are scared, pathetic men.
Yes, it is frightening to see a judge arrested, to see people sent to some gulag, to see our right to vote threatened, all this stuff. But don't ever forget how fucking terrified these people are over absolutely everything, even the most trivial matters. They are all terrified of us, far more so than we are of them.
@ATLeagle 🤣 Once in residency, I was so exhausted I shut the cats out of the bedroom so I could sleep. I forgot they had no litter box. God bless them, they knocked papers off my desk and used them as litter. When I woke up and saw that, I Iavished affection and treats on them. What good cats! And it was my fault they had to do that.
I unintentionally taught them that peeing in the litter box is good, but peeing on papers is GREAT! Then I had to be very careful not to leave papers lying out.
@inthehands Yes, on https://www.fiftyfifty.one, anybody can start an event! There are small groups protesting regularly even in deep red counties. Those people are damn heroes.
@FlashMobOfOne Some have been in the game from the beginning (though too few!) and some are getting in the game more now that we are leading. Some are still pretty useless. I trust this will get sorted out in primaries if and when we demand our democracy back.
If we get the right to vote, and we have elections, and there are still parties, I will still vote blue no matter who, believe me. But yeah, we have to get to that point, and to get to that point we need fighters, not collaborators.
@FlashMobOfOne Towards that end I will celebrate any Dem who starts to show they have skin in the game. Actually, with Van Hollen specifically, I hear from people in Maryland that he's always been pretty awesome.
The Last Rose of Summer is a true story about corruption in #cancer research. I discovered a cheap, plant-derived drug that could replace some much more toxic (but more lucrative) therapies. #BigPharma got involved and suppressed the research. Eventually I had to publish the story in thinly veiled fiction and survive a bunch of murder attempts."Mary Austin" is a pseudonym, as my publisher forced me to use one. So... hi, I'm "Mary." 🤷♀️
