Now that professional sporting events on the White House lawn are acceptable, what should the next Democratic president do? First NFL game? Professional Cornhole?

To the Republicans complaining about Virginia here is the fix: A Constitutional Amendment that: 1. requiring non-partisan commissions to draw all Congressional Districts 2. Increase the number of seats in Congress so that no one represents more than 200k people. 3. Abolishes the Electoral College.

I am a teacher and the clearest sign that we as a country do not value education is that I started in 2006 making $35k. A teacher starting today at that same school makes $42k. Adjusted for inflation that's $15k less than what I made.

The issue is Trump is very much the pedophile who cried wolf. His unhinged "Truth" is a threat of undeniable proportions. But he's also more full of shit than anyone on Earth. The problem is the people who believe him are for it and most of the rest of us know he's a liar so don't believe him.
A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!

I've seen a lot of conservatives run face first into the point and still miss it. But this...this might be the hardest I've ever seen it happen.
Tweet from absolute dipshit Laura Loomer:

It's kind of ironic how Bad Bunny was dancing on an electrical post at the Super Bowl halftime show.

Puerto Rico isn't exactly known for having reliable electricity.

He could have highlighted the electrical grid crisis in PR and done some good with his platform, but he chose degeneracy!

The irony is if this was done fairly it would even better for Democrats moving forward so that Red states couldn't fuck with things.

This. The fact that they let Schumer continue to be minority leader shows how complicit the rest of them are too.

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics

ICE must be abolished. It has become a lawless, rogue agency. Federal law enforcement agencies must follow the law, if they're going to have any credibility enforcing it. We are demanding justice for Renee Good and the prosecution of ICE agent Jonathan Ross for her murder.

This is Minneapolis: Walk into my neighborhood ACE last night & see the signage on their door notifying fed agents that it’s private property and cannot be used for immigration enforcement. These signs are all over the city. Walk in & the nearest shelf has goggles & whistles.

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.

I mean this isn't surprising to us who have been paying attention but it's still good to remember they are full of shit.
We've spent the past 70 years being told by right-wing dipshits the purpose of the second Amendment was so free. Citizens could protect themselves against incredible government. 

And now we have masked federal agents m murdering citizens in the street and you know who supports it the most? 

Those same right-wing dipshits.

Nothing is beyond Trump. And that's really what makes this all so scary.
For anyone questioning the legality of attacking Venezuela and abducting their leader: 

Remember, we're talking about a highly corrupt leader, a known criminal who used his high office to make billions for himself, and has manipulated elections to stay in power, has used his military against his own citizens, has protected his corrupt friends and punished his political enemies. 

And the president of Venezuela did some bad things too.

If a monkey hoarded more bananas than it could ever eat, while most of the other monkeys starved, scientists would study that monkey to figure out what the heck was wrong with it. When humans do it, we put them on the cover of Forbes.

Like there are plenty of jobs where the pressure is real and a part of it. Most though the pressure is because people in charge kinda suck.

This is the kind of lie that can't possibly be an accident. O'Reilly and most right-wing mouthpieces are so used to just spouting anything they want without push back that objective facts can't actually penetrate his bullshit even when it's right in front of his stupid sexual assaulter face.

I've been struggling recently with feeling like I'm not doing enough to help fight the evil I see in the world. This helps.
Today my anthrop professor said something kind of really beautiful: " you all have a little bit of I want to save the world in you, that's why you're here in college. I want you to know that it's okay if you only save one person and it's okay if that person is you"
I feel like a few people I know could stand to read this
