Don't celebrate Rush Limbaugh's death. Mourn his life

Friendly reminder AGAIN: The vaccines were not meant to make you bulletproof and immune to Covid but to make it far milder if you do get it, same as a flu shot. That a major news network is spinning it like this is how we get misinformation and fearmongering.

Happy Valentine’s Day, y’all.

@scare_oline One day people will wake up and realize that they made a movie where dudes hold bows and arrows like machine guns. And on that day the world will be a better place

BREAKING: The labor board has denied Amazon's request to stop the union election from going forward at its Alabama warehouse. Ballots are scheduled to go out in the mail Monday morning. This thing is on.

I am going to keep stressing that the “we must keep the supermajority requirement for ordinary legislation” is a radical change to the Senate as an institution and, for those who care, completely contradictory to the intent of the Framers.

[Henry Winkler @hwinkler4real]

Why do Democrats always take the high road right OFF the cliff ???

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Oh look, another billionaire is mad that he might have to pay more taxes while children in America go hungry and veterans sleep on the street. Cry me a river. Yes. We will make Wall Street billionaires pay their fair share of taxes and create an economy that works for all of us.

@scare_oline Where’s the sudden, hedge fund destroying stock increase for EB games huh??

[b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie]

McConnell retconning American history to argue that the Senate has always operated on a supermajority requirement.

@scare_oline Draw a lil cartoon of Robert Downey Jr wavin his hands around, they’ll get it

Good afternoon.

Dr. King was an anti-war, anti-capitalist justice seeker who rejected poverty, racism, militarism and the death penalty.

You just love to see it

"The resolution is adopted."

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announces H.R. 24 passes with a 232-197 vote to impeach Pres. Trump for a historic second time. https://t.co/5UfGkpkWIJ

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

All these GOP “pro-police” slogans were never actually abt safety.

It was always abt upholding a system of state violence that targets Black ppl & ppl of color.

You can tell by how regularly GOP members defend crimes, reject accountability, & push officers when *they* want to.

@patrickhwillems I feel like the real answer to this is that a lot of people are doing several other things while watching a movie at home most of the time and subtitles make it a bit easier to catch up on expository info, but I just watched Tenet so I’m gonna blame Nolan’s sound mixing.

What wake-up call do folks need? Are we going to argue that our institutions are resilient until they do succeed in throwing out elections? They walked into a building riddled with bullet holes where people had died trying to storm it and voted to overthrow the election anyway.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

Articles of Impeachment for introduction, so proud of everyone co-leading this effort with us.

We need to move quickly to remove this President from office.
