Sports fan. Gamer. He/him. Voter ID is a poll tax (time is still a cost). Always an attempted ally.

I know exactly one of those people from when I lived there (many) years ago.

Gee, if only the House, as part of the legislative branch enumerated in Article I of the Constitution, had some method of exercising oversight on the executive branch enumerated in Article II.

Hmm. If only.

Best of luck, man. I hope things will be in an upturn for you very soon.

Peace.

I am not going to repost the vile and racist image that Trump posted last night of President & First Lady Obama because it is beyond disgusting. Trump is a vile racist as is every Republican that continues to support him. I don’t want to hear mumbling from Mike Johnson or stoic silence from Thune.

Late, NYT. Certainly tantamount to shutting the barn door after the farm animals have already gotten free.

Late. But perhaps still better late than never (looking at YOU, WaPo).

please share if you can; I think it's important to try to get her ideas out there!

Classic, probably Cabaret.

More recently, certainly RENT.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

I will vote for the ham sandwich that runs on Abolish ICE.

It's not even a matter of moderation, liberalism, or whatnot here in 2026. It's a simple matter of perceptional acuity, even if this test is one many Dem pols seem to fail:

*Do you know what time it is?*

Spanberger appears to know what time it is, and appears to govern her choices accordingly.

ICE isn’t making rare mistakes. This is the point.

When an agency can grab people first and sort out rights later, if they bother at all, everyone is at risk. Citizen or not.

(Would appreciate RTs on this - going to Maine to report on the ground would be a significant undertaking, one I should start planning for now if I'm going to see it through.)

I sort of wished everyone had freaked out about this President when he sent mobile death squads into our cities but destroying the economy also seems to be getting some attention

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

Who among us hasn't stumped scalding mashed potatoes on our spouse's head?

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality.

I don't know how to yell any louder.
