“There’s no such thing as global warming. Chinese con. It’s a bigly lie. Let me tell ya, I know. They tried to run something similar on me, but you know what happened? I didn’t let them. Because that’s how a real businessman deals with these things. Doesn’t even matter how I ... What? Really? Proof? *Guffaw* Right…

Pick 3 to start and try them? Can always change things later.

Yes totally overwhelming. picking a top three is a great idea. But then I think of five more things and am overwhelmed again. And I know this is what they. Want. To Paralyze us

Call your congressmen. Call them frequently. PUT THEM UNDER PRESSURE. Make them understand you are not happy.

So, yesterday I was thinking what would be my top three things to fight in the Trump administration. I was getting overwhelmed with it all. There’s so much to fight against, to donate to, to volunteer for, etc. So, mine are the environment, woman’s rights, and the DREAMers. (These may change during the next 4 years,…

I have literally decided Trump is a greater threat to America than Osama bin Laden ever was.

Anyone who says this isn’t straight up fascism, is a straight up fascist themselves. Our right to peacefully assemble, which means anything short of actually smashing shit up, is guaranteed by our 1st amendment constitutional rights. Don’t think for a second that this law will not be used by a federal agency at some…

I’m going to guess that this is the reason—DeVos, Puzder, Sessions are worth devoting lots of energy/time.

It’s called picking your battles.

I can only assume (hope?) they are backing him because they have bigger fish to fry in terms of the cabinet nominees (like they’ve made a deal that they’ll back him if so-and-so doesn’t back someone else?). This still feels like a betrayal, but there are worse cabinet picks, imo.

Polastry! Polastry S.! I know you can touch your toes. Give it a bit of effort.

The entire Washington Post newsroom saw it happen because it was right outside the window. The police kept denying it even as reporters were like, “Uhhhh we have footage/bleeding ears.”

Another day in Kim Jong Orange’s Murica.

Can confirm the indiscriminate use of flashbangs; I was about 100 feet away from them* when they were going off and those things are fucking loud. The police would throw them down and then rush forward at the same time, grabbing anyone who was too stunned to back away.

Hijacking by Black Bloc anarchists is how legitimate protest gets subverted. Divisive disruption by agent provocateurs and stigmatization of peaceful protesters by associating them with violent anarchists are well-known tactics to subvert nonviolent social movements. This isn’t really something I feel like snickering…

The irony of an RT guy getting swept up in this is too rich. What’ll be telling is if he gets off and the Vocativ guy doesn’t.

Any bets on how fast Trump pardons the RT America reporter? I mean, Russia Today, it’s not like there’s any reason he would stand by his man...

Thank you for this. A woman isn’t lacking in agency just because she’s making decisions you don’t agree with. I might concede that she’s in over her head, but to cast her as someone so blank that she can’t muster up the power to make her own decisions is a disservice to both her, and other women like her. Just because…
