Audre Lorde, in a 1989 commencement address, said, "Remember this, despair is a tool of your enemies. That rumor, 'You can’t fight City Hall,' is circulated by City Hall. Facing the realities of our lives gives us the motivation for action, it gives us the power to change. You are not powerless."

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

A good way to honor January 6th is just to reshare a bunch of the video from it so you can experience again the immediate visceral reaction to an attack on America.

Five years ago today, Donald Trump urged his supporters to attack Congress and the Capitol over a proven lie. More than 140 police officers were injured. Trump then pardoned the attackers. He betrayed his oath and his country, and we won't ever forget it.

The fact that we colloquially refer to the ongoing illegal gutting of the federal civil service as "firings" and "reductions in force" is an example of successful propaganda

Rep. Ted Lieu @reptedlieu.bsky.social · 01/04/2025
The Trump Administration wants to sweep this under the rug. We’re not going to let them.
Congressman Ted Lieu speaking at a podium with an article headline by Barry Levitt from 3/30/25 overlayed him that reads: “Congressman Makes Fiery Call for Pete Hegseth to Resign Over Signalgate.” Smaller text reads “Ted Lieu didn’t hold back his opinions when discussing Pete Hegseth’s “Signalgate.””

The immediate removal of USAID funds and programs is not like a tech company firing their QA team. It’s like someone told you they would feed you next week and instead of canceling with notice so you can go to the shop, they take all the food you have in the house and burn down your kitchen.

Why It’s Important to Talk about Race with Children
Children start learning about race and racism as early as preschool. Talking about race early, however difficult, will help them become more antiracist

I am so sick of this shit. It’s a Sieg Heil. It’s a Nazi salute. Anyone who sees it knows. It’s ridiculous that legal departments presumably won’t let media call it what it is. Bannon made “a provocative gesture that resembled the salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally”? Fuck off.
The Daily Beast tweet:
“Steve Bannon whipped up the CPAC crowd by talking about the possibility of Trump staying in office for a third term - and concluded his speech by giving a provocative gesture that resembled the salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally last month.”

I feel so sick. Enough with the lies, enough with the games. They know exactly what they're doing. This is a neo-Nazi movement. Proudly so. The only reason they've kept it coded up until now was to take advantage of those who didn't want to believe it. No more looking away. Face up to what it is.

This was just 233 days ago:
Sotomayor’s dissent in Trump v. United States: “Let the President violate the law, let him exploit the trappings of his office for personal gain, let him use his official power for evil ends. Because if he knew that he may one day face liability for breaking the law, he might not be as bold and fearless as we would like him to be. That is the majority’s message today.

Even if these nightmare scenarios never play out, and I pray they never do, the damage has been done. The relationship between the President and the people he serves has shifted irrevocably. In every use of official power, the President is now a king above the law.”

Going to reiterate that everyone on this website should run for something. Tree warden, Senator, horse catcher, whatever. The Democratic Party is currently screaming at each other about precisely how much more racist and transphobic they should get. Sneak past them, primary an old guy, take control.
