Government provides far more fundamental, essential services than people realize. Services that go overlook and forgotten about -- until they are no longer there. Remember, we work together for the collective good. Straight talk by @ average__american #Cyclospora #CDC

What we wouldn't give for one more term of a fantastic president! President Obama was one of the best! 😍 Happy #BarackObamaAppreciationDay!

Actions speak louder than words. And the actions we have witnessed over two terms of this president are cold and callous indeed. #RespectTheUniform

SB244 proves the Kansas GOP supermajority is clueless. They codified vigilantalism with a financial bounty -- all fueled by hate for trans people. When the courts overturn SB244, the 118 who passed it should personally foot the bill for the damage they've caused and havoc they wreaked.

Perhaps we should be talking about rampant corruption that has embroiled Republicans at all levels but in particular, under the Trump administration. Is this what the taxpayers actually think should be done with their tax dollars? #PayToPlay #CorruptionIsTheirPurpose #UnfitToLead

Presidents' Day is postponed until we are presented with an actual president. Trump fails the dignity test, the decorum test, and the IQ test. Do not pass Go; do not collect $200. Next, please. #PresidentsDay #HardPass #IncontinenceIsTrumpsVice 💩

The US is descending into a cesspool of fascism. Some would argue we're already there. EU member countries are openly calling for the dissolution of treaties and the invoking of clauses to penalize bad behavior. Friends are honest with each other. We need to be honest with ourselves. #ImpeachTrump

This Martin Luther King Day feels different than those that have come before. Today, our country is at war with itself. Perhaps a long hard look at MLK is worthwhile. Justice movements are never quiet and are highly disruptive. Their leaders are vilified at the time and idolized later. ✊ #MLKDay

US imperialism exposes American hypocrisy in 1898 and 2026. In both the Philippines and Venezuela the US touted its promotion of liberty and human rights all the while violating both on the homefront. It's impossible to ignore the parallels. #USHistory #Venezuela #ReneeHood Creator @ inthepastlane

Thanksgiving didn't begin as a festive holiday with feasting. It began as a solemn day of fasting, changing over time into the holiday we have today. Our many successes in our local races this year warrants a break from politics and a day of rest. #Thanksgiving Narration @ historywithpapag

"Don't tell me what your value. Show me your budget, and I'll tell you what you value." -- President Joe Biden Notice how nobody in the Trump regime ever asks, “But how will we pay for it?” when it comes to priorities that benefit them? #MoneyForMeButNotForThee #Priorities Credit @ Robert Reich

KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true? HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart-- KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.

This morning, President Obama welcomed an Honor Flight of veterans and their families to the Capitol. Words alone cannot adequately express our gratitude for their service, but appreciative words and a handshake from a President is a start. 🇺🇲 #VeteransDay

In case you find yourself in a debate over what the big bad S word means with someone who clearly doesn't understand what Democratic Socialism actually is, here are some facts to share. Socialism... spooky. 👻 Yeah, Halloween was last week. #SocialismIsntWhatYouThinkItIs OG ➡️ @ jayneconverse3

"No More King" was the first episode of Season 3 of Schoolhouse Rock! That season, which coincided with the American Bicentennial, ran from 1975 until 1976 on ABC and was actually named America Rock. America will not bow now nor ever to a king. #AmericaHasNoKing #NoKings

We at the LEO are as unsurprised as Governor Hochul at yesterday's release of hateful messages. In this age of hyperpartisan tribalism fueled by dehumanizing speech, the cost of doing one's elected job is to receive death threats on a regular basis. 1/6

Understanding basic debate and public messaging strategies such as the "dead cat" strategy is essential in this day and age of misinformation and disinformation. Whether it's a local candidate that hides past support for others, or a President that wants to hide damaging files. #DontGetDistracted

Talk about an unconscionable Freudian slip. 😳😳😳 All electeds cross this nation take an oath to uphold their state Constitution as well as the US Constitution. That is not an oath to a king or even to an office. Even suggesting unlimited power should be in impeachable offense. #TrumpIsUnfitToLead

If a Republican tries to tell you that it take 60 votes to pass a CR in the Senate, they are either dreadfully misinformed, or they are lying to you. Just two weeks ago, Senate Republicans changed the rules to force through 48 nominations at once. Technical details matters. Credit: @tonycali2026

Silencing opposing viewpoints and stifling dissent is an age-old tactic of authoritarianism. Are you sure that you are on the right side of history? Self-reflection is warranted, before it's too late.

There is a reason why no level of government entrusts supreme, unchecked, unilateral control over government functions to one person. Government works best when all branches work together to serve their constituents, and hold equal branches of government accountable. #NoKings

Real heroes don't do it for fame or recognition. They don't need to be seen doing good work or to take constant selfies for self-promotion on social media. They do it because there's someone in need and they have the ability to help. That's how friends, neighbors, and real heroes act.
