Here from the other place. I will never stop fighting the scourge of the orange conman and his band of oligarchs. Looking for other resistors. Married mom of 2. Northern Ca. native, Gen X, and life long leftie. I believe in democracy, and want to keep it.

The people sitting around this table should be so ashamed of themselves. It's comforting to know history will not be kind to them, and they will be looked at with disdain when we look back on these terrible times. These are not serious people who deserve every criticism that comes their way.
It's mind boggling his lawlessness has ben normalized. I can't believe ANYONE, even MAGA, wants a dictator running our country!! I really wish the people who support him would realize how he is manipulating them for his own gain. He doesn't even try and hide it anymore. It's truly frightening.
I can’t wait for the Big Beautiful Obituary

It's real. He did this in his first term too. They all went around the table to praise him in a cabinet meeting. It's gotten much worse and more pathetic. The part about the Noble Peace Prize was especially ridiculous.
WTF did I just watch? I sat with my mouth open in disbelief watching them go around the table to pay "tribute" while proving the people who run our country are crazy, sycophantic weirdos. His obvious and pitiful need to be praised is cringe inducing. History will NOT be kind to this administration.
I'll never believe he won all seven swing states. Ever.
Holy shit. This legit gave me chills. Texas State Rep. Ann Johnson clapped back at GOP members amid Wednesday's redistricting vote. WHITE WOMEN, this is the model. We have more power than others. We are the last to be silenced. We have a responsibility to SPEAK so others are HEARD.
This response is epic!
He is seriously embarrassing.
🚨 BREAKING: Republicans are lashing out at the creators of this new ad. They're TERRIFIED. It must have struck a nerve. Maybe they don't like being outed as pedophile-protectors. You know what to do: SPREAD THIS EVERYWHERE! #ReleaseAllTheEpsteinFiles
It's crazy how on the nose you were. Like all these exact things are occurring. Of course it was not hard to imagine. Everything that's happening we told you mofos he was going to do it!!
Oh I caught the sarcasm and agree. It was a great point.
RIGHT??!!!! The fact that the mainstream media never covers any of the outrageous things he says in a straight forward way. They normalize him, and it's infuriating.
I so get this. It's like you can't believe he could ever be worse, but then he tops himself...daily. The sheer volume of his misdeeds, mistakes, confusion and trickery he pulls is mind numbing. This too shall pass. God...I hope we can correct some of the atrocities he's committing.
That's what he's hoping for. We can't let that happen!
Our "special needs" president. My gawd...he is seriously embarrassing. He thinks Zelensky wants to see his f'ing hats.
This is a seriously embarrassing picture. I've been using that word a lot lately.
Same. It's embarrassing to be an American right now. We look so lame for electing this treasonous buffoon. I wish more Americans would loudly protest the damage he's doing.
When Fox News is saying tRump looks weak you know it didn't go well. Not that I expected it to. F'ing pathetic president we have.
I agree with all this!! He makes me cringe every time I listen to him. I can't understand why his supporters are not embarrassed to admit they like him. I would be mortified if I voted for such an insecure, petty, little-handed, moron.
Right?! Just once I'd like to see the press take a lie tRump has said and confront him with the proof right to his face on camera. Make him answer for his provable lie. They never do that and there are literally tens of thousands of examples they could use. The double standard they allow is crazy.
This is a perfect example of where I'm at these days.
The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?
What a grotesque and gruesome thing the United States has turned into!
Yep...I don't recognize my country anymore, and I really hate what we are allowing to happen.
I absolutely loved this song as a kid after hearing it on the radio.

Hi Monica!! Thank you for always working so hard to connect resistors. I'd appreciate a boost! We're all in this fight for democracy together!!!
Me too!!
We need a Democratic leader who is not afraid to fight dirty with tRump and say the quiet part out loud just like he does. It evens out the playing field, and I think Governor Newsom is the man to do it. I hate we have to go to tRump's level, but going "high" didn't cut it at all.
Humans aren't illegal. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk. #ImmigrantsMakeAmericaGreat
"Get it all on record now. Get the films. Get the witnesses. Because somewhere down the track of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened." – Dwight D. Eisenhower, Germany, 1945
This could be the official GOP campaign poster at this point. They know he lies. He knows they know. And they still clap for the lies like it’s the gospel truth.
Andry Hernandez Romero is a special human being. I thought about him a lot when he was being held at CECOT the El Salvadorian torture prison. I actually thought about all of them. I am so glad they were let go. This is a powerful interview.
Yes!! Predator is a much more accurate description.
I'm with Beto!!
This exactly!!! We all know what kind of man tRump is and have seen for decades he's a womanizer. He freely admits it in interviews. Yet they act like it's impossible he could have ever been guilty of any of the accusations of the 26+ women. Like it's so hard to believe he could do that! Ridiculous.
Proud to share a birthday with this beautiful man!!
excuse the typo... :p
Dem areas work hard to get out the vote like Canada does. California mails ballots to every Californian, but red states like Texas and Georgia work to make it as hard as possible to vote. Georgia's leans purple so those poor folks in Atlanta wait hours in line. It's disgusting what the GOP does.
I want justice for Virginia!!!
I know what you mean. I got KFC for my husband today and a 5 chicken strip meal was over $18!! For 1 fast food entree and drink!! It's crazy!
Can you imagine?? We could have had a beautiful, classy and super intelligent president, but instead we got an orange stained, idiot conman lying treason weasel.
Let's make this happen!!!!!
Motherfucking wind farms…
I agree. I'm still shocked people actually voted for him. ANY of the times, but most especially 2024. He's so embarrassing!! An utter fool who makes me cringe, and I'll NEVER understand his supporters. Their support defies logic.
I want justice for Virginia! I want justice for all of the victims!
A Democrat will definitely undo as much of his damage as they can, but God knows where we'll be by the end of this nightmare. I will never understand how he got back in. How could anyone vote for him? He's so embarrassing.
Ignoring the victims while considering a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell is revictimization. The cover-up continues.
We as Americans cannot allow Newsmax and other right wing outlets to spout this ridiculous propaganda. It's an obvious scheme and they are committing fraud against the American people right out in the open to help tRump. DO NOT BELIEVE THE OUTRIGHT LIES!!!
Just saw this! Maybe we should retweet and start a thing?
You can help us fund nominees in the reddest and toughest districts in Missouri. This is how we claw our way back to democracy in a ruby red state. Contest every seat.
He did not get the credit he deserved.
Me too!! I think he was the kindest president we ever had. He does truly care about all of us compared to the treason weasel we have now who only cares about himself.
This is a woman speaking before the DISD (Dallas, TX). She is asking the school board to prohibit ICE from going on to school campuses. THIS is a perfect example of how we can be fighting back against this hate filled regime. Our neighbors are NOT our enemies.
Can you imagine MAGA's utter freakout if Hunter Biden posted something like this? The tRumps are all vile, disgusting human beings.
Exactly! Now is not the time to worry about making Dems perfect. We are in a war against straight evil, and need to band together to fight it. If we're ever back in control then we will worry about more detailed issues. Right now keeping democracy alive against fascism is THE only issue. Never GOP!
That Dr. tricked people into thinking they actually had the vaccine. How is that giving someone a choice?
He's saying Liberals created the Epstein files so when they do come out and he's all over it he's is going to blame Democrats and say its fake. That anyone would believe him is unbelievable to me.
Bingo!!
How does she have the nerve to say that with a straight face? It's such a ridiculous statement for her to make. What the hell does she think co-equal branches of government mean? They're shameless and we need to constantly call them out. Why the media won't do it is beyond me. It's frustrating.
The media and members of Congress could stop him immediately if they ALL banded together and stood up to him. Ask the hard questions, and force accountability. Tell him NO! Why are they so afraid of him? Some are evil like him and want the things he's doing, or they're weak and won't stop him.
I believe you. He is sadistic and awful. There are not enough adjectives to describe how I loathe him. I didn't even know I was capable of hating someone so much. I still can't believe people voted for him.
They should respond with "You're a fake president."
It's crazy! It's because tRump has no shame. He'll continue to lie even when the truth is right there. The media never confronts him, and that's why he's successful. They should all band together and pummel him with direct questions every single time there is a mic in his face. They won't.
I agree he's evil. I believe he has the luck of the devil, but he's too stupid to be the anti-christ. He's definitely a "tool" that serves the devil's purpose.
tRump and the Texas governor are the evil ones!
A Nobel Peace Price for the most evil, most destructive, and most selfishly cruel conman we've ever had as a leader. It's utterly ridiculous to nominate him considering how much pain and suffering he has caused. The Nobel committee is going to laugh their asses off at this one. tRump is pathetic.
Couldn't happen to a better person. I'm going to really enjoy her comeuppance.
What, exactly, are we celebrating tomorrow? Our cutting off healthcare to the needy to enrich the greedy? Our new concentration camps? Our dying economy? Our ditching due process? Our corruption? Our broken legislature? Our corrupt SCOTUS? Our ridiculous buffoon president? #FourthOfJuly
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I feel exactly the same.
I know right? There are so many people that I never realized how awful they are. I'm deeply ashamed of these brainwashed so called Americans that support that treason weasel.
Joe was right about everything.
They don't even try to hide it anymore. The Supreme Court is openly corrupt too. I want to see these people punished so badly.
I hold you responsible: for every disgusting thing he says, every way he perverts our systems, every reprehensible decision he makes, every human being whose life he makes a living hell, every immigrant he rounds up in hospital beds and churches... johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-the-peo...
We now have a concentration camp in Florida. Stop pretending any of this is normal. If you claim to be a good person and you're not outwardly opposing this regime, you're not a good person. Be human.
From the ages of 16 to about 25 Planned Parenthood was my sole health care provider and I thankfully never needed an abortion. My point is they don't only do abortions.
I love Calicos. They're special.
A photo for the ages. Every living Democratic president and vice president standing together, hand over heart.
Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride. However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Say it with me. RFK Jr. is killing children.
Me too.
Thanks for helping me see it. I wasn't sure what is going on at first.
It's Peter Straub. Just found my book. Maybe I'll read it again.
I read The Stand twice...both versions, and watched both series. I really enjoyed the mini series from the 80/90's. It was really well done and matched the book perfectly. Has anyone read The Talisman? King co-wrote with Straub or Koontz (can't remember which one it was) Also a favorite book!
Yes, I agree — it would be terrible. Please do NOT share this information!!!
My favorite book of all time is The Stand. I love all his books!
Amityville was the first real book I ever read. I was probably 10 or 11. I remember being scared in my bed too!
Thank you, Glenn. We are all well aware. 🤣😂
There are no words. This is just one of thousands of atrocities. How can Americans let this happen? It's shameful.
