I actually watch an episode of The West Wing every night to have a sense of intelligence & decency from leaders. ๐บ๐ธ They weren't perfect but they always tried to do the right thing and had our best interests at heart. โจBartlet2020โจ
BULL!!! He was trying to help a woman up off the ground who had been violently shoved to the ground more than once. They were both sprayed in the face more than once. How could he have brandished a firearm when he couldn't even see?? He was no threat to half a dozen agents!! ๐ ๐ฟ
Florida's Surgeon general is a physician who deserves to lose his license. Pulling mandatory vaccines for children and allowing parents of children sick with Measles to decide whether they should go to school is medical malpractice and a dereliction of his oath. He is insane.
I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.
Whatโs most clear to me tonight is that this is just the beginning, that Americans across this country, no matter their title or party, are ready to be heard.
I believe that history will show we rose to meet this moment.
It will show we did not let the chaos and division go unanswered.
It will show that when our president chose to spread lies and sow fear, we chose to come together, to work together, and to rise together.
โOverheard at a grocery store by someone waiting in line behind a woman speaking on her cellphone in another language. Ahead of her was a white man.
Man: โYou're in America now. You need to speak English.โ
Woman: "Excuse me?"
Man: *very slow* โIf you want to speak Mexican, go back to Mexico.
In America, we speak English.โ
Woman: โSir, I was speaking Navajo. If you want to speak English, go back to England.โโ
@Acyn It doesn't surprise me one bit that someone like Brian Glenn is dating Marjorie Taylor-Greene. They deserve each other... but the world could do without them entirely. This is, BY FAR, one of the rudest things I've ever heard.
@RpsAgainstTrump I would love to see what trump would say after the US had been leveled by his neighbor for 3 YEARS. He wouldn't be nearly as diplomatic & composed as Pres Zelenskyy. There was only 1 leader in the Oval Office yesterday and it wasn't from the US. Our "leaders" are Putin's puppets.
@EdKrassen I thank my lucky stars the Europeans didn't hesitate to stand up immediately with President Zelenskyy! What has happened to the US politicians who are willing to completely bow down to trump? If they weren't willing to stand up to power, they shouldn't have run for public office.
