Honestly though, I can't imagine Dolly wanting everyone being sad. If you can go read to a kiddo, donate some books, and remember to always be your true authentic self. Maybe just do it a little louder today, stand a little straighter. I feel like thats the best way to honor such an amazing human.

Voting for Trump in 2016 was ignorant. Voting for Trump in 2020 was malicious. Voting for Trump in 2024 was evil. Still supporting Trump in 2026 is irredeemable.

It remains baffling to me that we have a clear constitutional requirement that the president can't enrich himself on the job, something we had no problem enforcing strictly for hundreds of years, and then this sweaty conman came by and the nation just sorta shrugged it off.

I'm not seeing much difference here, right down to the glower. I mean, FFS, they even put the flags in the same place under the portraits. So, can we PLEASE stop with the "Yes, but is it fascism yet?" stuff. Yes. Yes it is.

/6 Watch, as this unfolds, two key things: (1) how blatantly the Gestapo will lie, and demand that you ignore what you can see plainly, and (2) how uselessly, how pathetically, how impotently the media will treat those lies and dither at this murder, craven publicists to evil.

/5 This will not be the last death. The people of MN are unbowed, and that will further enrage the Gestapo. The administration will escalate. They want violence. They WANT to murder people who disagree with them. They are empty without it.

/4 Usually they are standing up for people who don’t even know - but people who are their neighbors, as defined by the Jesus whose words the cruel Trump supporters cynically profane. They are Americans. If they don’t give up, how can we? Be more like them.

/3 In this moment of horror, look at the people of MN. They’re not an army. Few are trained for urban combat, through there are many veterans. They are young and old and rich and poor. They are standing up at great personal danger, defying a despicable Gestapo government and its vile apologists.

Common Sense, published 250 years ago today.

Men who look upon themselves born to reign, and others to obey, soon grow insolent; selected from the rest of mankind their minds are early poisoned by importance; and the world they act in differs so materially from the world at large, that they have but little opportunity of knowing its true interests, and when they succeed to the government are frequently the most ignorant and unfit of any throughout the dominions.
