I mean for sure it could be a tool of maleness too, but I am also thinking historically about narratives of colonization where people of color have been subjugated into thinking that the manners and modes of behavior derived from their own cultures are inappropriate and not proper enough and have been forced into…

Go to the next nearest Indivisible meeting. We are keeping our plans off social media, but if you want to participate, now is not too soon to look up your nearest chapter.

Wait. Peeling an avocado? What?

It is also worth noting that Lavrov is named in the Russian dossier the FBI is (was?) investigating, as someone who was actively involved :) Page 28.

There’s one scheduled for June 3rd. https://www.crowdpac.com/campaigns/225084/march-for-truth-june-3rd-2017-d-c-la-nyc

Trump campaigned on Comey’s decisions in both July and October. He told the world that Comey was a brave man and did the right thing on both occasions. So no, nothing has substantively changed since then to require an immediate firing... except the part whereby the FBI is obviously breathing down Trump’s neck about…

Trump wrote “While I greatly appreciate you informing me, on three separate occasions, that I am not under investigation, I nevertheless concur with the judgment of the Department of Justice that you are not able to effectively lead the Bureau,” which seems like a surprisingly candid hint into why he was really fired.

I’d suggest those a bit younger should look up the Saturday Night Massacre to see why olds are kind of stunned at this point.

We need a special prosecutor, like yesterday. No way the guy who is going to replace Comey will be independent in the Russia investigation.

She kicked Cruz’s ass when he tried to do the classic Republican deflect onto “But Hillary’s emails!” and schooled him on the Constitution. Then he slunk away in shame.

It’s a Gadsden Flag, used (I’m not googling this and could be spelling it wrong and all) by one of the colonies during the revolution.

I’m an ABC (American-born Chinese) and I’m probably going to getting a passport card some time in the next 6 months in addition to my existing passport. That way, if I happen to be in a state where they check my immigration status upon being pulled over, I can prove citizenship.

Vive le France! We drove the Nazis out 72 years ago. No way in hell are they coming back.

I used to work there, and furthermore bills generally don’t mean much by themselves. They tend to say things like “in subsection 4(A), change effective January 1, 2020 to effective January 1, 2020 subject to approval by the Board as established in subsection 19(C).”

Not only don’t they macroeconomics, they don’t history either.

Republicans are terrified of the public learning the full consequences of their plan to push Americans with pre-existing conditions into the cold.

It takes a real feat of cold, tangled logical acrobatics to conclude that, in the event of a fascist candidate, people who don’t want a fascist president should not gather around the banner of the candidate who is not a fascist.
