Glitter bombing the Gestapo.

Perfection.

Like when we hippies put daisies into the National Guards’ guns.

There’s no explanation for Senate races going to Democrats in six swing states—but the Presidential race going to Trump. There just isn’t.

I stand with Jimmy Kimmel.

And Steven Colbert.

And Katie Phang.

And WaPo columnist Karen Attiah.

And Matthew Dowd.

And the many university professors being fired for daring to speak of hate-monger Charlie Kirk. Or idiot
potus Donald Trump.

I know this sounds crazy, but bear with me.

The New York Times has gotten hold of the Gaetz trafficking and child rape report,

But only showed us one measly redacted page.

🤔 Someone at the New York Times needs to leak that report to the media. 😹

I’m with the Gov.

Could CNN play boot-licker to Trump any more than this?

Oliver Willis @owillis.bsky.social

Ah here comes @cnn.com with the bullshit straight out of 2003

This plan is CLEVER! Keep reading:

@demgovs.org Could we NOT treat Mr. Kirk as some sort of fallen hero? He was a hate-monger who grew rich off attacking liberals, women, and minorities and shilling for Trump.

Flags at half mast for him is an insult to all of us.

Who else is STAYING HOME from the chain stores today?

Arrested at the Senate building today, disabled activist Carol Olinger needs insulin and dialysis NOW!

Circulate and make some noise.

Thank you!

Got another text trying to get money to “impeach Trump.”

My answer:

You goofs! We don't have the votes in either house to convict. Let's hold our fire until YOU help us win back the House AND the Senate, and THEN we'll take him down.

Let’s start with Congress.

I’m sick of seeing empty seats when Congress is “in session”.

Attend or don’t get paid.

And two weeks vacation a year, like the rest of us.

Get back to work, you scoundrels!

Apparently Kansas Republicans are all pedophiles.

Looks like the GOP’s supermajority in Iowa is broken tonight, as Democrat Catelin Drey beats MAGA Chris Prosch by more than 10 points . Previously, a Republican won this seat by ten points.

Look out, MAGA! Nobody likes your terrible “governance”!

Now, get these bastards to comply.

Because this could be wonderful news.

Rental car advice for all: Before allowing the Google Map app in your rental car to seduce you with the promise of cutting half an hour off your four & a half hour drive,

Be sure the previous renter did not set the choices to

AVOID HIGHWAYS.

Hellacious drive in heavy fog on Iowa’s farm roads!

Turns out it really IS a problem to put a drunk in charge of our Defense Department.

Sleepy or contemplating mischief? #FinnAgain

Beware, Republicans.

Trump had only one week in office, doing horrible things, before a

DEMOCRAT FLIPPED AN IOWA SEAT in a 21+ Trump district.

Iowa!

Trump is destroying you. And we are coming for your seats.

Signed, a grinning Democrat

25th Amendment NOW!

@schumer.senate.gov , please immediately seat all of President Biden’s judicial nominees.

RT to your Dem Senators, thank you. 💙

We said “no kings” and we meant it.

In many states, Tuesday’s elections are your way to say it again!

Elect Democrats!

PA: KEEP your 3 great justices.

MAINE: No on 1 —don’t let them take away mail in voting!

CA: Yes on 50. Balance the Texas steal!

MIKIE-yes.

ABBY-yes.

Newsom: I cannot wait for all the punditry. Historic victories all across the United States of America. Proposition 50 winning by double digits. A new governor of New Jersey, a new governor in Virginia. I’ll end as I began: thank you for giving a damn.
