#resist#NeverAgainIsNow#DontLookAway “Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free...” My ancestors were immigrants & refugees.
North Carolina A&T students marched an hour each way to vote on the first day of early voting after their campus polling site was removed by the Guilford County Elections Board. Proud 👏🏽
Trump: "Putin has no respect for this person."
Clinton: "That's because he'd rather have a puppet as president of the United States. You're willing to spout the Putin line, sign up for his wish list, break up NATO, do whatever he wants to do."
October 19, 2016. She was right.
Mental health care professionals warned 10 years ago that Trump, as a narcissistic psychopath, doesn’t give two shits about this country, and that he’d betray it and the Constitution.
And here we are, not even close to rock bottom because there isn't one.
Timothy Snyder: A good time to remember lesson 18 of On Tyranny: Be calm when the unthinkable arrives. Modern tyranny is terror management. When the terrorist attack comes, remember that authoritarians exploit such events in order to consolidate power. The sudden disaster that requires the end of checks and balances, the dissolution of opposition parties, the suspension of freedom of expression, the right to a fair trial, and so on, is the oldest trick in the Hitlerian book. Do not fall for it.
Shapiro: They’ve decided to livestream an execution… That’s how they do it in North Korea, not the United States. We’re better than this. We’re a kind people, not a cruel people but unfortunately, Trump takes us to the lowest common denominator every time
A weapon developed for war and designed to inflict intense pain has been approved for loan to federal law enforcement on American soil.
The Pentagon authorized the heat ray for DHS.
Could ICE get access? Could it be used against migrants or Americans exercising First Amendment rights?
Who decides?
I picked up some double shifts this quarter so I can take Nov. 3rd off. I plan on ferrying seniors in my community to and from the polling stations. I did this last election cycle and the elders were incredibly appreciative.
I’m so sad for my country.
I’m mad as hell, and I’m scared and I’m deeply fucking worried about what Trump has done and is doing to this imperfect place I love, believe in, and call home.
But more than anything else, I’m so deeply, deeply sad.
“Cruel and unusual form of punishment.” U.S. Air Force Maj. Jason Watson is headed to the most severe form of military trial -- a general court-martial -- after calling for President Trump’s impeachment while in uniform at the U.S. Capitol. His attorney reveals that Maj. Watson has been kept in solitary confinement since August and could face years behind bars.
When all this is over, @realDonaldTrump will be remembered as the greatest traitor to America in its history.
Children in school will learn of his treachery as a warning to future generations. People will spit on the ground when they hear his name. His works will be torn down, one and all.
Hello, @PeteHegseth. I’m a former Army officer in 1st Cav who was stationed at Fort Hood. Thirteen murdered Americans deserve better than having their memory used to promote state-sponsored blood sport. Livestreaming the shooter’s execution is barbaric Taliban shit.
@RepMikeRogersAL you chair the House Armed Services Committee. Find your spine.
What kind of dystopian shithole government authorizes the televised execution of a human being but blocks the broadcast of a James Talarico interview with Jimmy Kimmel?
