Donald Trump has done a lot of terrible things to this country over the last decade. But here’s what I think is most insidious of all:
Trump has taught Americans that cruelty is strength, that resentment is identity, and that hating other people somehow makes you superior.
He has created a permission structure for people to be their worst selves.
Now, more than ever, we NEED elected officials in Congress who still believe that civility is important, the Constitution matters, and treating each other with dignity and respect is the cornerstone of our society. If you’re with me, chip in $10 to help me STOP Donald Trump!

Are you actually seeing this post?
Ever since Donald threw his latest unhinged temper tantrum about me (again), folks have been telling me I've mysteriously vanished from their feeds. It appears the deeply unwell narcissist is so terrified of dealing with me in Congress that he’s begged @elonmusk to throttle my account.
This kind of pathetic desperation is nothing new. But I need YOU to help me beat Donald and Elon at their own game. Don't let a malignant sociopath and his billionaire enabler silence us.

Those who pray are aware of their own limitations; they do not kill or threaten with death. Instead, death enslaves those who have turned their backs on the living God, turning themselves and their own power into a mute, blind and deaf idol (Ps 115:4–8), to which they sacrifice every value, demanding that the whole world bend its knee. Enough of the idolatry of self and money! Enough of the display of power! Enough of war! True strength is shown in serving life. #Peace
@AriFleischer Obama literally saved the world from an economic collapse caused by the second worst Presidential administration in history that you helped lead.
Somebody should invent a microblogging platform that makes it quick and easy to find the best on-the-ground reporting and relevant expertise, while weeding out misinformation, propaganda, blather, and outright crazy people.
America is watching today, so every reporter covering tonight's State of Delusion should be questioning why 50+ pages related to a woman accusing Trump of sexual assault when she was a child are missing from the released files.
The more @realDonaldTrump brags about a reality that exists only in his own broken mind the more he seals the midterm fate of the @GOP. Political masochism in action.
Former Ohio Republican Governor and presidential candidate John Kasich:
“What’s happening in Minnesota is waking up the whole country. It’s bothering us because we don’t see justice and fairness… It’s tearing the country apart but it’s also raising the consciousness of Americans who are saying enough is enough… Republicans may pay a HUGE price for this.”
Trump 2.0 is identical to 1.0
Useless. Pointless. Nothing getting done.
Constant unnecessary drama.
Zero results.
Country getting torn apart.
1 guy getting personally rich off of it.
The deadly shooting in Minneapolis today was a straight-up execution of a protester by Trump's federal brownshirts.
The thugs wrestled him to the ground. They pistol-whipped him, then shot him multiple times. They murdered him.
The videos don't lie. A man is dead, killed in cold blood. There is no conceivable justification for this intentional homicide. And make no mistake, that intentional, unjustified homicide was committed on behalf of Donald J. Trump.
Trump's militarization of Minneapolis and other parts of our nation isn't about illegal immigration. It's not about enhancing public safety. It's about destroying any sense of that safety—to intimidate political opponents, and to punish dissent. It's about a corrupt, out-of-control regime's effort to provoke citizens in order to justify the violence it desires to commit against them so that it can expand and retain its power.
That is fascism. It is tyranny. It is governmental criminality.
And the ultimate legal check the Framers of our Constitution provided to stop this kind of tyranny and criminality in the executive branch is impeachment and removal of the executive.
Congress needs to do its job.
Now.
Before it's too late.
