De Niro: I hate to say it, but loving our country is starting to sound like an abused spouse saying they love their abuser.
I can’t love a country that starts stupid and inhumane wars, killing thousands of innocents and indirectly causing the deaths and suffering of millions more.
I can’t love a country that takes healthcare away from millions of people and uses that money to enrich their pals in the Trump-Epstein class.
I can’t love a country that sends out masked militias to shoot citizens in the streets, torture our neighbors, and separate families.
I can’t love a country that’s led by a racist, misogynist, xenophobic tyrant.
And let me just say it: I can’t love a country that’s led by Donald Trump and his sycophant Congress.
I am calling for the arrest and prosecution of the ICE agent that shot and killed Renee Good.
I am also calling on Congress to support my bill with @JasmineForUS to force ICE agents to wear body cameras, not wear masks, have visible identification, and ensure ICE has independent oversight.
This is absolutely disgusting. Listen to this Minneapolis pastor talk about how he was assaulted by ICE!
“An ICE agent literally came over to me and said, ‘what did you say?’ I said ‘I am not afraid,’ and they pointed a gun in my face. ICE put handcuffs on my hands and put me in a black SUV and then a few moments later they came back and they said, ‘are you afraid yet,’ and I said, ‘no,’ and then they said it: ‘Well you're white. You wouldn't be fun anyway.’ It was then that I knew that the staging that these ICE raids are really about fear and intimidation.”
On Christmas Day, the Trump regime informed Americans, via a DHS tweet, that one only deserves the title of citizen of this nation—the designation "American"—if you accept Jesus of Nazareth as your Lord and Savior, i.e. are Christian.
We Jews have heard this canary sing before.
Hudson Williams is right!!
“I would pitch Connor as just a beautiful, sensitive little, radical, artist boy who is to be treated with the utmost care and only hugs and friendliness because he can’t handle anything else and that is perfect. And that is how everyone should treat him. And if they don't treat him that way, they should die.”
Everyone should read this week’s WSJ story on Trump selling pardons. It’s some of the most corrupt shit I’ve ever seen—you can literally corner him at one of his lame parties and walk away with a pardon. How is this not the biggest story in the country?
#HeatedRivalry creator Jacob Tierney on why women love the show:
"Women love these books. These are books written by a woman. These are books largely consumed by women. So I wouldn’t want to speak on behalf of a female audience, but I think that what women are presented in romance is not always something that interests them in that way. I think that women are also, in real life and in culture, endlessly exposed to sexual violence. Seeing things like this, that are depictions ultimately of male vulnerability, can be very refreshing. From what I’ve heard, from the women who have written to me and Rachel and the boys, there’s a safety in seeing a woman being removed from the conversation. So you’re watching something happen between two men, and there is no fear of violence. There is no fear of things turning into stuff that women have to deal with too much in real life, and don’t want to deal with in their fantasies, and ultimately, this is a romantic fantasy. I think it’s also that maybe romance — which is a genre that women love and write and read and are the primary consumers of — just doesn’t get treated with a lot of respect. Nor do the people that make it, or those that adapt it either. So I think that they are responding to, at least I hope, the fact that we came to it pretty fullhearted, and as fans and as people who want to honor this material and want to honor the genre and make it as romantic as we can. That’s certainly what I wanted to do."

The WH has now taken over the social media account of the DOJ to protect him.
Asking MAGA and Republicans when is it enough?
Why are you silent?
They’ve deported a US citizen.
She’s not just detained, she was deported in spite of a court order stating she wasn’t to be removed.
The family of Dulce Diaz Morales are stating they can’t locate her.
This is terrifying.
They were never going to stop with immigrants.
🚨BREAKING: 23 people have died in ICE custody.
Chaofeng Ge, a Chinese immigrant, was found “hanged” with his arms and legs tied behind his back and ICE tried to call it suicide.
Randall Esquivel was deported in a vegetative state and died soon after.
This isn’t detention. It’s torture, neglect, and state-sanctioned abandonment and it’s happening on American soil.

@mostlymaudlin This is such a weird thing for her to lie about. The book has lines lifted from the CATFA movie! And in the author's note to the fanfic itself, she says she only has the first 19,000 words written!
You wrote gay fanfiction, girl. So did Richard Siken. It's okay.
