How about a civil war hero like Mary Elizabeth Bowser, who was a free black woman who was a spy for the union, posed as a slave and worked in Jefferson Davis’ household? She was a key figure because she shared confederate military plans/strategy with union military figures. Davis knew there was a leak/spy but never…

My vote is for “Loving Highway” after Mildred and Richard Loving of “Loving v. Virginia” fame. Also “loving highway” has a sort of poetical justice in replacing “that old asshole racist highway.”

While I generally agree with your sentiment, as someone who has to take Route 1 every day, I’d prefer to bury the name in the ash heap of history while still maintaining the road.

I contributed to the gofundme for her funeral but that seems like not nearly enough. I am so sad for her and her family and friends and I wish I knew how to make this stop.

Spencer has taken up shop in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia, where hate is not welcome. Join us on Saturday 2/26 12:30 pm to protest his presence.

I see a lot of comments dismissing this action as it likely won’t gain traction. CALL YOUR FUCKING REPRESENTATIVES AND IT WILL.

Absent their ability to actually stop Trump’s nominees, this is the best the Dems can do right now - to keep tabs on him, to call him out on stuff like this, and to keep the American public informed. This bill has absolutely no shot at becoming law, but I suspect she knows that - that’s not the point. She’s forcing it…

Bannon is the worst. Simply the worst human being on the planet. A colleague just sent me this from Breitbart. I had a rage stroke just reading the headline and cannot bring myself to click on the link. And I can’t read it with the covers pulled up over my head, which is pretty much where I want to be right now.

I think we all need to come together and viciously antagonize him about Bannon being the puppet master and brains behind the office. He will get annoyed at this narrative and it will cause a rift with Bannon and he will be pushed out. This man responds poorly to being antagonized. If we do it enough, he will retaliate…

Seriously. I’m assuming that I’ll be setting aside at least one day each weekend for protests, and considering if I want to travel down to DC from Boston for marches several weekends in a row.

I think he’s testing the waters honestly. I don’t recall a president speaking out so soon after a new administration has taken office to encourage people to continue protesting. I imagine there are some very serious, high-level conversations going on - and even the Koch brothers aren’t happy about this shit right…

What do we do though? I’ve been protesting, signing petitions, donating, calling my representatives, trying to get more involved in local politics, etc., but the frustrating thing is that it seems like no one can stop him. It also feels like we have no true leadership. Honestly I wish Obama would come back into the…

I’m sure the guy who got slaughtered by Hillary would have totally beat Trump! You know, the socialist Jew. That would have played super well.

Trump is just as bad as Hillary guys! The DNC cheated Bernie so let’s protest vote! Let’s stay home! They both suck equally!

Sarandon & Stein & Bernie Sanders need to become pariahs. They are all complicit in getting Donald Trump elected. Sanders especially since he’s still pushing the narrative he was “cheated” out of the Democrat’s nomination and could have won (which is bullshit).

She lost because people didn’t vote at all. Look at Wisconsin. Voter turn out was at a 20 year low among all races. Its not that people came out in droves to vote for Trump or switched sides for him, its that a lot of people, particularly those in liberal or urban areas, didn’t vote at all.

I truly do not understand why, in the wake of realizing that America’s white nationalism movement has grown to HUGE proportions since Obama was elected, and that it’s clearly the reason Donald Trump is now our president, we are still sitting around going “goddamn those far left hippies who voted for Jill Stein - they…

There is nothing that makes me more ragey than, “they are equally bad,” and I feel real contempt for Sarandon at this point, but yeah, she’s not going to back down because she was supporting the idea that if Trump became president it would ‘burn the whole thing down’ and lead to a rebirth.

I’ve seen some just double down. Insisting they preferred to vote with a clear conscience, that they don’t regret it, and that both choices were equally bad. Denial? Idiocy? Arrogance? Pride?
