History won’t praise Democrats for playing by the rules if it’s the reason we lose our country.

Black Americans will be alright. We always will be, they’ve been trying us for 400+ years… and they still lose 🀣

Should’ve listened to the only people who knows how this shit works and what to do but NOOOOOOOOOO.

Good faith is why we have a fascist dictatorship currently.

They wanna play fair while the other side is actively cheating.

I guess being seen as decent is more important than being correct

Texas Democratic legislator to stay in state capitol after refusing law enforcement escort to leave State Rep. Nicole Collier of Fort Worth on Monday said she will remain locked in the Austin statehouse chamber until the House reconvenes on Wednesday morning.

β€œβ€˜I refuse to sign away my dignity as a duly elected representative just so Republicans can control my movements and monitor me with police escorts,’ Collier said in a statement that called her a β€˜political prisoner’ for refusing Republican β€˜surveillance protocol.’” www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Public media has been defunded. Your support keeps journalists on the ground, lifts unheard voices, and connects communities.

Help us plan for what’s next. Make a monthly gift today. Stand with public media: n.pr/458sOhq

"If you hate America so much why don't you leave?"

- Because you shouldn't have brought me here in the first place, hoe. But since you did, I will continue to be the consequences of your actions.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

People living under fascism didn’t survive by giving up joyβ€”they protected it.

They held onto the things fascism tried to erase: art, friendship, jokes, rituals, language, memory.

Not as escapism but as resistance. As proof they were still human.

Joy isn’t frivolous under fascism. It’s strategic.

The selection of an American pope at a time like this is no coincidence esp when many US presidents look to them for spiritual guidance

I was an 80s kid.

My mom worked, there were Black kids in my class, and I remember being super shocked when I found out the civil rights movement was only 20 years prior.

That revelation is the original source for my interest in politics.

Trump's Impoundment Power Grab Explained

Trump's spending freeze isn't just about defunding programs he doesn't like.

It's a deliberate play to overturn 50 years of precedent and give himself even more power.

Photo of Serena Williams at Superbowl with inset of sports commentator, Stephen A. Smith, who has never been married, saying Serena's husband should divorce her for dancing to track dissing her ex, Drake, in Kendrick Lamar's halftime show ... with a quote Tweet above the photo from Meech pointing out how ridiculous Stephen A. Smith is (and how large his forehead is).
