Everything we are seeing right now happened in the early 1800s. And these choices were fueled by white supremacy, misogyny, and xenophobia. Life only got better for those who actively oppressed others.

Abolitionists, womens rights organizers, workers rights unions, disability rights orgs, and pro-immigration orgs did the work under far worse circumstances with very little global solidarity. We have better tools, connections, and resources.

The United States is a nation of con artists, suspicious to the point of paranoia of sincerity, and yet deeply gullible of the most transparent frauds. What passes for "religion" in the U.S. is, more often than not, nothing other than a long-standing grift, so deeply embedded in national consciousness that most people are unable to see it as the long con it is.

They call it "heritage."

As usual, President Biden quietly attended Mass in Delaware this evening, keeping up his record as the most consistently church-going president in modern history.

Faith isn’t a prop for him—it’s personal, something he genuinely lives by. Meanwhile, Christian conservatives just helped elect someone who would probably need a GPS to find a church.

I'll never understand it.

When will Democrats realize that it took 6 months just to form the J-6 committee and 9 months from J-6 before a single subpoena went out. It was a full year, per Wash Post, that Garland+Justice Dept delayed even the start of prosecuting Trump. Unforgivable dereliction of duty.

I just saw somebody say “your body, my choice”

And the woman responded, “your body, my freezer”

Everyday, Russia commits war crimes, like here, shooting a POW in the head.
Russia is now our close ally, MAGA.
