just watched 74 people speaking at least a dozen different languages become american citizens in a ceremony at monticello, where the speakers were themselves children of immigrants. inspiring stuff and a vivid illustration of what reactionaries want to snuff out

The thing about the march to fascism is that aside from the terror and the consequences it’s also so goddamn embarrassing

I know this is a boring point to make but it fucking kills me that one side is saying "we'll bring back 12 hour days, child labor, and Jim Crow" and the other side is saying "you can continue to grill on Sundays with your neighbors, who might look different to you" and it's a 50/50 split

entirely unclear why the founders set up a system where the congress could remove someone from the office of the presidency for conduct that was absolutely, unquestionably and at all times legal

Seems crazy! But just logical. If a President cannot commit a crime in the course of an official act, like giving an order to the military, how can you prosecute the person who follows the order? There’s a whole code of military conduct about “illegal orders.” All orders are legal now.

Keeping Trump out of the White House isn’t the only thing that needs doing and it isn’t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isn’t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I don’t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise

fuck man, I don't even know what to say anymore. One political party wants to burn everything to the ground and institute theocratic, kleptocratic autocracy. I think this is bad, just one man's opinion.

Isn't it interesting that they're trying to frame themselves as initiating *that* war instead of the Civil War? Wannabe Confederates still don't like being called what they are. Probably because it reminds them they lost the first time.

Just at the most basic level it is really unhealthy to have to thought about Donald Trump as much as everyone in America has over the last nine or so years. Spending a decade of my life thinking about a super boring, super shitty crook and all the bad stuff he's doing or might do. It's embarrassing.

I kinda feel like now that the Supreme Court has declared it legal for a president to straight-up murder people they don't like, it's probably even more important to not elect people who seem extremely inclined to murder people they don't like

Everyone is always afraid to say why people like Trump or Marie Le Pen have some level of popularity and it’s just that there’s a lot of people in the world who believe in racism. You end up with these goofy ass explanations for Trump where it’s NAFTA or shit and it’s like no you know what it is

Honestly, even if Biden came out and put Trump in a headlock & made him shit his pants, it wouldn’t mean much in June, everyone who isn’t a pollster or pathologically online will ignore this shit until September, and even then, the price of a gallon of gas will still make more of a difference

Republican Doug Ducey did it in Arizona, got reelected, and used his stacked state Supreme Court to savage effect. Democrats have to stop being so squeamish about actually using the power voters make available to them -- Republicans have already shown them how.
