The algae in the reflecting pool is now taller than the Empire State Building.

Aged like milk.

Everything Trump touches turns to shit: Because conman Trump awarded a $14.2 million taxpayer-funded no bid contract to an incompetent friend to makeover the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, the water is now a putrid smelly swamp of stinking algae.

The Republican Party quietly deleted their own ad attacking Ken Paxton's record on crime... because Paxton is now the Republican Party's nominee to represent Texas in the U.S. Senate.

Figured if the ad is important enough to delete, it's important enough to see...

It’s wild how Texas Republicans think maybe being vegan is worse than being a child rapist.

The events of the White House Correspondents Dinner have been made out to be many things. But one is certain—it was unsurprising.

It's not surprising that in a country facing both a gun violence crisis and a rise in political violence, Americans are once again forced to hide—under tables, under desks—just to survive.

It's also unsurprising that my Republican colleagues have responded by offering a ballroom. If a ballroom is your solution to gun violence, then every student in America deserves one.

My party is Dem women, whether they’re leftists or liberal progressives. Give me Lauren Underwood, AOC, Abigail Spanberger, Michelle Wu, Mikie Sherrill, Gretchen Whitmer, Katie Hobbs, Letitia James, and on and on…

All joyful warriors getting shit done.

I can hear my neighbour crying “I Can’t Breathe”
Now I’m in the struggle
I can’t leave
Calling out the violence of the racist Police
We ain’t gonna stop … til people are free
We ain’t gonna stop … til people are free

He literally swapped his phone to non dominant hand to grab his weapon‼️ That’s PREMEDITATION‼️
She wasn’t the first ICE death / murder
Masked, inadequately trained thugs terrorizing , breaking windows, kicking in doors, ripping people from vehicles,attacking & murdering people‼️

We are heartened to see that for the first time in 12 years, the U.S bishops issued a joint statement addressing the current situation impacting immigrants in our nation.

We thank @Pontifex for leading the way as the voice of the voiceless and for standing up for human dignity.

"Battle Hymn of the Republic" is not a song to be taken on lightly ... but in light of this week's New Year Trumpian news onslaught, we're sharing this adaptation, called "Battle Hymn of the Empire" - as Trump goes marching on, and dragging us all back to the nineteenth century.

Jennings: So you're saying a Democrat would put Obama's name on a statue that isn't of him? That would make him look like the stupidest person that ever lived.

Phillip: I'm glad you said that because The Kennedy Center is literally a congressionally named memorial.

I'm currently reading a comparison of health systems globally. There are about 4 sentences that really sum it up.

1/4: “The United States is the only developed country that lets insurance companies profit from basic health coverage”

On Air Force One, President Trump was asked whether he plans to call Gov. Tim Walz: “I’m not calling him. Why would I call him? I could call and say, ‘Hi, how you doing?’ The guy doesn’t have a clue. He’s a mess. I could be nice and call, but why waste time?”
