Oh hell no we are NOT going to rewrite history this way. Not Deep State not coup not framed. Tricky Dick did it all by himself and he deserved way more than he got.

My take from the Smith hearings: To be a GOP senator today, you have to be a lying piece-of-shit, who puts loyalty to party & our lying piece-of-shit president, above their oaths to the Constitution & their obligations to tell the truth & do what rights to the American people! Repost if U agree

So let’s all eat less beef which is what needs to happen anyway, and enjoy MAGA Texan farmers in their FO/leopard eats their face phase. May they have the day they voted for!

They’re not HIDING anything they’re demanding the LAWS AGAINST INTIMIDATION be followed. How fucking DARE THEY start framing this as “if it’s above board you shouldn’t care if we send armed troops to watch you vote”?!?!?!

Good morning. Just a friendly reminder that Ghislaine Maxwell is currently protected, enjoying pampering and puppy time while America's service members are forced to drink diseased water, eat rotten meat, and huff air infested by mold. She does yoga while they choose drowning.

Unpopular opinion, medieval and early Renaissance paintings are more interesting and often more visually pleasing than high renaissance.

I’ve always suspected we trustingly send away all our plastics and that most of it ends up in regular trash…guess I’m basically correct. I hate it here.

I guess I can feel bad for Graham family mourning him but y’know what? Either they agree he was a POS and aren’t mourning, or they think he was a fine human being in which case, fuck them too.

Here is Graham gloating about "killing all the right people." Just in case you see anyone try to do the whole "we should have decency for the dead" nonsense.

Norway beat Israel 5-0 in the World Cup qualifiers and then donated the prize money they won to Gaza and that’s why everyone should be rooting for them.

I wish just one NATO leader (or all of them) would say, "This is unacceptable. The US president has lost his mind. America come get your boy. He's broken and needs to be under a doctor's care back home." I wish someone would tell the damn truth about what's happening.

Look I loathe Melania but I’m gonna give her a pass as an exploited vulnerable immigrant teen in a*sex tr*fficking ring. So: not calling her a whore. Once she’s an adult/married to that r+pist and going along/benefiting? She’s a c-word.

Remember, during today's literal cage match on the White House grounds: No matter what, it's not his house. It's our house. Get a hat, coaster, or sticker to support groups and candidates who will respect the form AND the function of the people's house. shop.onwardtogether.org/collections/...

It's America's 250th birthday—so we made a list of 250 books on why that's nothing to celebrate. bookshop.org/lists/250-bo...
Covers of dozens of books exploring America's long legacy of racism, genocide, imperialism, and dispossession.

An I alone in thinking it’s just immoral for things like this to be for sale to obsessive private collectors when it belongs to us all culturally? Yes I know this has widespread implications. This could be in a public collection, not hoarded like treasure. “Never been studied” 🤬😤
