I hope the majority realizes you can't win over the right wing with civility or the old ways. Doesn't work. Its a dangerous, violent, hypocritical cult without shame. They want power by any illegal means necessary. Choose your fighters accordingly. The current Dem leadership ain't it.
Are they even playing chess?
If you are one of the almost 100 Dems who voted to honor the guy who said the Civil Rights Act was a huge mistake, don’t bother asking Black people to vote for you, donate to you or canvass for you next year. Don’t bother. Please. And don’t be shocked if you get a primary opponent.
Where the separate divisions of ANTIFA landed on the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944:
Happy to have helped!
The reason why health insurance plans are doing this is because they know how effective vaccines are in preventing illness which *lowers there costs*. They’ve done the math.
I'm really concerned that white people are just not up to the task. A lot of y'all are well meaning but you're just not up to the task because you've never been systematically oppressed and you refuse to listen to people who have been
And on public transportation! Never without my N95 when I travel.
Same. Got mine last week before I came to Mexico for vacation.
For the record. My posts were not even about Kirk directly, but about America's apathy towards political violence, and the coddling of white male shooters and hate peddlers. I was fired because I mentioned race: white men and violence-- that was my "gross misconduct."
We're witnessing the most aggressive, fanatical crackdown on free speech in my lifetime. The speed and breadth of government censorship and private sector and nonprofit capitulation has been astonishing. As has the lack of urgency/silence from people who've long claimed to care about this stuff.
The purge continues.
Better late than never!
Martin Luther King Jr. was so sick of white moderates that he went to the Caribbean, rented a house, and locked himself inside for a YEAR to write about how civility and quiet are the tools of the oppressor
Quite a journey from "love it or leave it" ➡️ "love it or we're going to trap you here until you manage to convince us that you love it"
Thank you for using your platform to keep this issue in front of people.
Jarlic FTW.
We’ve been living through 72 nonstop hours of this exact tweet
It’s almost like there’s a pattern we should watch for more carefully.
Ew.
Jfc.
Update: Civil War cancelled due to shooter being demographically uncooperative
It's not just that I find Democrats prostrating themselves to be gross. It makes them unsafe. Why should I, a Black queer woman, maintain any faith that these jamokes give a single shit about my material circumstances as they eulogize this horrible man. It sucks.
Top tier movie reference.
You dishonor Charlie Cook’s life and legacy by expressing empathy for him and his family. He did not believe in empathy and he thought that gun deaths were acceptable. He would not want your empathy and he died by the principles he lived by. Honor him by minding your business.
That both of Turning Point USA’s founders are dead from public health crises their organization worked hard to enable is a parable for our time.
I’m not sure Charlie Kirk wants us to be upset on his behalf. He has openly said that gun deaths are an acceptable price to pay for our 2nd amendment rights.
This.
Exactly.
“I think it’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational” -Charlie Kirk, 2023
Charlie Kirk thinks gun violence and gun deaths are an acceptable price to pay so that we have the 2nd amendment. Maybe you should talk to him about political violence.
Ugh no. He was one of the first to give the GOP their quorum back the last time the Dems left the state fighting against redistricting. Folded early. He also moved to a safe district rather than defend his seat, sidelining Dems who already lived in the new district and were ready to run.
I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do. Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.
I hope one thing leftists all take away from Mamdani’s campaign though is that it doesn’t matter how chill and wholesome you are, the dinguses are going to smear and trash you in increasingly unhinged ways anyway, so you might as well shoot for the moon and campaign on what makes your heart sing
"Twenty-three Democratic attorneys general now gather on near-daily Zoom calls at 8 AM Pacific, which means the East Coast officials are already on their third coffee. They divide responsibilities and share templates for lawsuits they’ve been drafting since last spring."
Have any prominent elected Dems committed to dismantling ICE if/when they reclaim power? Because that frankly seems like an absolute bare minimum at this point. You can't just have a massively funded armed gang of hard-right stormtroopers embedded across the country & return to normal.
Oh yea, no, we get it. He’s a SHITTY human who does not deserve higher office. AND, I applaud his trolling game.
The next Democratic President needs to burn ICE to the ground and re-imagine immigration enforcement to be humane and apolitical. ICE has repeatedly shown that it seems itself as a vehicle for MAGA’s policies, they need to be abolished. Saying this shouldn’t be controversial after all this.
Timeline cleanser: cuteness overload!
If you're watching Trump's press conference, a good way to make sure you fully comprehend his message is whenever he says "homeless," "criminals," "scum," "filth," "savagery," "gang," and/or "illegal," substitute in the word "black."
That’s the thing, it’s all ENRAGING. Not mildly irritating, kinda stupid, or sorta disappointing. It’s ENRAGING!
Same experience. Why???
FYI he is one of three Dems who came back from the quorum break last time they did this. He did not stand with the Dems last time.
More of this, please.
I’m with Charlotte.
The Americans.
When I suggested Democrats hold daily press conferences to share stories of Republican pedophiles, I meant they could bring up all the old stories. I didn’t think that we’d get new stories about a GOP pedophile every day, but whatever works I guess
There’s renewable energy ads and there’s mother**cking wind farm ads. This, blissfully, is the latter.
I’m watching this lying in my bed wearing one of my many Kamala Harris shirts. I will 💯 support her if she runs. I just don’t want to see her hurt. That’s what I’m most afraid of. HER getting hurt.
I think your piece is thoughtfully written. I’m impressed by your willingness to print to detailed responses you did. It takes growth and maturity to present those points of view in opposition to your own. Kudos.
Dems confused about why they're polling lower than GOPs? Think of it this way: one side is vile, rabid vermin - the other side let them in the house, feeds them, doesn't discipline them, dotes on them, responds to their needs, often takes their side in territorial disputes, asks you for $5.00 often.
💯 accurate.
Who tf does something like this to puppies???

I would pay $5 a year even though I watch nothing on PBS just to keep it going.
Nailed it.
Trump & GOP Will Finally Bring Healthcare to its Knees open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...
Chia seeds are fiber rich food.
Cool
So beautiful!
This.
Enough with the idea that we should reconcile with our Trump supporting relatives because “family comes first”. THEY were the ones who didn’t put family first when the voted for the dude taking away my healthcare protections. THEY did that. THEY broke the covenant, not me.
Happy #Caturday everyone!
When Republicans get power they do whatever they want. They dont care about polls or the courts or the rule of law. When Democrats get power they worry about pissing off Republicans who will never vote for them.

Congrats to Stephen Colbert for never bending the knee.
I console myself by hoping that he’s crossing every T and dotting every I so that there are no loopholes for the DOJ to squirm through.
It’s called hyper-normalization. It’s a dissociative reaction meant to shield you as a safety mechanism, but ultimately helps whatever is attacking you. Think closing your eyes as a train comes rather than jumping out of the way. Fascism will succeed if we continue to hyper normalize its presence.
My god.

The thing is is that the longer this goes on and my right wing family says nothing, the more I’m convinced that they support it so there’s NO WAY I can quit snubbing them because GROSS!
"Democrats don't want the Epstein files released because it would compromise Bill Clinton." Yeah, no, I don't care who's in the files. If Bill Clinton is implicated, I want him held accountable. I'm not part of a cult. I don't give a shit if they're a Democrat.
Incredible stories of individual valor in Texas. But it sadly reminds of one of my Army commanders' cautions: when personal valor is called for to save the day, we as leaders and planners have failed.
Yes, I’ve heard that too.
I looked into doing this a few years ago. It’s not as straightforward as it might seem. You have to hold “services” and have documents stating your beliefs. The IRS will scrutinize to see if you meet their threshold for tax exempt status.
So is this guy just stuck in a foreign gulag ... forever? www.cnn.com/2025/05/28/a...
Thank you!
The Democratic Party should be talking about how the next president will impound every dollar of DHS funding in the Big Bill to create the most expansive climate crisis response program in history.
Everybody be quiet and let Elon spend billions becoming the Republican version of Jill Stein.
We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.
100% correct, entirely predictable and criminally negligent.
PSA: It is ok — and necessary — to grieve right now
100% facts. The wait time talking point is just a talking point.
Make no mistake: Alligator Alcatraz IS a concentration camp, and they absolutely ARE planning genocide and ‘ethnic cleansing.’ As a white person, i don’t know what I can do to help, but if all I have is my voice, I will make sure it’s heard.
When Democrats are back in power, they’re gonna match this energy, right? Right?
If you’re in Texas, I urge you to support Clayton Tucker for Ag Commissioner with a monetary donation. I met Clayton several years ago when I ran for Congress. He’s a great guy with rural Texas roots. www.claytontuckertx.com
This reminds me of what people say after a mass shooting. “It’s not the right time” to do anything. Problem is, we are *always* entering an election cycle. So when, exactly, is the right time. Before you accuse me of being a bro, I loathe Bernie. I’ve been a Democratic activist for 2 decades.
Hell yes. This is what we mean when we say do SOMETHING!
Generational change is coming: Since Zohran Mamdani won on Tuesday night, more than 1100 young people have reached out to @runforsomething.net to explore a run for local office -- one of our biggest spikes of the year yet.
Cuteness overload for your timeline cleanse.
“For one of us to make it, 100 of us have to try” - AOC That’s the lesson of the NYC Democratic Mayoral Primary. Zohran Mamdami is the latest to break through the grip that the gerentocracy has on the Democratic Party. It can be done, but many many more of us have to try.
Wake up Democratic Party old guard establishment. This isn’t about New York City. This is the way the wind is blowing. Step aside for young people who this country will need over the next several decades long after you are gone. Enough with your egos and the big money interests.
