Zelensky's statement that the world must cease all business with Russia and remove themselves from a Russian market that "is flooded in [Ukrainian] blood" is very powerful and social media is pushing the dial on getting companies to do the right thing. SO KEEP THE PRESSURE UP.

Republicans promised to overturn Roe v Wade, and they have.
Democrats can either abolish the filibuster and expand the court, or do nothing as millions of peoples’ bodies, rights, and lives are sacrificed for far-right minority rule.
This shouldn’t be a difficult decision.

I keep wondering what the world might look like if 537 votes in Florida during the 2000 election went the other way.

McConnell’s game plan:
1) Call for bipartisanship.
2) Dangle vague compromise.
3) Back out last-minute.
4) Go on Fox News.
5) Bash Biden and Dems.
6) Repeat.
The goal is to run out the clock.

Anne Frank would have turned 92 today. If the United States had approved her father's visa application, she could be an old lady in Brooklyn, celebrating with her family and showing her great-grandkids the diary that told the story of how she got here.

Actually she’s a domestic terrorist who ran a bar. Cnn winning the normalizing olympics today. If you’re looking for some good examples of how the media continues to fail us.
In her Ohio hometown, Jessica Watkins is known as a veteran who runs a bar. To the FBI, she's a militant leader who stormed the US Capitol. cnn.it/2Y7rsAf

I cannot get over how, in 2021, police departments—which we pay for—still put out posts like this, where the actions of non-officers are active voice and the actions of officers—generally shooting at people—are not only passive but obscured to the point of non-recognition.

Any time Mitch McConnell—no longer Senate majority leader—asserts how the Democrats should follow the rules and do what’s right, Democrats should visualize his refusal to hold hearings for Merrick Garland and his ramrodding through Amy Coney Barrett in 8 days.

Just to reset, the President of the United States sicced his supporters on Congress and his own Vice President, leading to a violent coup attempt that disrupted the peaceful transition of power.
He should be removed and arrested alongside the terrorists who carried out his will.
