We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope." "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."
JUST IN: Over 25 million Americans under 35 now live with their parents. An all-time high. And the percentage of Americans ages 25 to 34 living with their parents is also at a record high. Y’all aren’t ready for what comes next.
Who the fuck comes up with a phrase like “feminist social engineering “ besides some misogynist ass hole?
Don't "need" sports, they say? Who "needs" sports, exactly? What benefits do they provide to men that they don't to women? I'm so confused by this line of thinking
Former challenger Mallory McMorrow: “Congratulations to Abdul El-Sayed for winning the Democratic primary to become our nominee to be Michigan’s next US Senator. I’m proud to give Abdul my full endorsement and support as we head to November together as a unified party”
The people are stronger than any currency. That's a fact. Especially when the people understand they are stronger together than any weapon.
Big money spent $70 million to try and defeat Abdul El-Sayed and it didn't work! POWER TO THE PEOPLE!
📌Susan Collins is voting "no" on the repulsive Blanche because she has been given political cover by Thune. Her vote doesn't matter. This isn't a heroic decision, it is pure politics, and whether anybody wants to admit it or not it's how she has survived like a parasite in that chamber for 30 years.
If you thought John Mitchell or Bill Barr were bad… just you wait.
Brown University has a widget that tracks the cost of the Iran war to American consumers (as contrasted to whatever the Pentagon is spending). Per-household cost now exceeds $600. iranwarcost.watson.brown.edu
Why do we bother obeying the law and paying our taxes when the President does neither? He is playing us all for fools!
Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.
They need to hammer down relentlessly on this. They can't become overconfident, like they did with Hillary in 2016.
A vote to confirm Todd Blanche is a vote against justice for Epstein survivors.
Whitehouse on Blanche and Ghislaine Maxwell: "It was to get exculpatory information about Donald Trump and then reward her ... How often does a prisoner allegedly facing threats or danger get moved to a less secure facility? Think about it. It doesn't pass the test of common sense."
Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media
🎂Celebrating Barack Obama: A President Who Made History On his birthday, Americans reflect on the legacy of the nation’s 44th president and the milestones that continue to shape U.S. history. #TheCityBrief
James Talarico: Since taking office, Ken Paxton has become a multi-millionaire — all while most Texans’ pay has remained stagnant for decades. He now owns 15 homes, while most Texans can't afford one. We can't afford Ken Paxton's corruption.
Mitch McConnell’s communications director’s silence and smirk speak volumes. If he were fine, or even improving, she’d just say so. There’s no way this man is coming back.
So his communications director, etc are still drawing salaries bc McConnell's accomplices won't be honest.😡 They should have to repay every dime they're received since his death.
You can’t expect anyone with any character to work for someone who has none.
Todd Blanche's last-minute promise won over Senators Cornyn & Tillis, but shouldn't have. The "deal" leaves Trump's tax immunity intact. It confirms what the Senators should have already known about Blanche's lack of fitness to be AG. My analysis: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
The $1.776b Slush Fund Isn't As Dead As Senators Cornyn And Tillis Seem To Be Willing To Believe
MS NOW’s Mychael Schnell reported Monday morning that “Overnight: A spokesperson for Sen.

I think I have more Capital One accounts in good standing than the Trump Organization. I definitely pay more in taxes. Do I get audit immunity or nah?
Cornyn lost his primary. Tillis is walking. Neither has a donor, a term, or a future to protect. Both caved before lunch Monday. www.JackHopkinsNow.com
