My friend’s father won’t be watching Fox anymore now that Tucker is gone. It’s amazing how empty Republicans feel when they don’t have someone feeding them propaganda every night.

ironically enough, an oppo file on Tucker Carlson is the only real investigative journalism Fox News has ever done.

Ted Cruz laid out a sinister scheme in the lead-up to Jan. 6 to overturn a 224-year tradition of transferring power from one president to the next.
Ted Cruz is unworthy of the United States Senate.

It’s hard for Democrats to keep up with the Republicans who’ve turned into a party all about retribution, violence and opposing justice. I think it’s still hard for Democrats to fully accept they’ve abandoned all democratic values and the pretense of making life better.

It may have cost them $787.5 million, but Fox won and—if not required to publicly acknowledge their lies—democracy/America lost.

This question from last month still stands: “How many billions in compensatory and punitive damages will it take before Rupert Murdoch decides to stop his propagandists from spreading lies about election fraud and further poisoning American democracy?”

In a sane world, the GOP would be developing winning policies that appeal to voters, not pushing nasty tactics to block voters from participating in elections.

Still not a word from John Roberts about Clarence Thomas—Roberts the Chief Justice who has previously proclaimed he cares about the Supreme Court’s reputation.

On the same day Joe Biden announces he’s running for a second term, reiterating his commitment to “the soul of the nation” and personal freedom, Donald Trump faces the first day of a civil trial for alleged rape.

– Nixon's gop wasn't willing to stand up for him or be part of/go down for his illegal f'kry
– We had a functioning msm at the time that actually helped bring Nixon down, instead of ignoring his f'kry and helping him. He also didn't have his own propaganda network.
Take 1,000 seats, Brendan. 2/2

My Hot Take: The fact that Black folks have to do this every day. Have to seek out validation every day, is traumatic. Yet the mere fact of seeking it out and wanting to amplify it, is seen as triggering for some. And the story of America.

Since 2016, there have been over 5,700 missing & murdered Indigenous women & girls in the U.S....and counting. Much like Black women and children & other women & children of color their stories are barely touched by mainstream media. No. More. Stolen. Sisters.❤🖐🏾🔥

I just had my 15th anniversary on Twitter! It's the longest relationship in my life. Fortunately, I've met someone new, and it's time to get divorced and start dating Spoutable! Thanks, @cbouzy , for freeing me from that dysfunction!

In response to Pierson Tyler-Leonard.
2/2 for City Council while in the very same courtroom as Hawkins was being falsely accused of murder by Trump & others was this week the same courtroom where Trump, himself, was arraigned on 34 felony counts.. It seems clear that MLK's words are forever prescient & his truth still lives on today..
08:44 PM - Apr 09, 2023
When MLK said “the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.” he could never have imagined how profoundly these words would be in this moment when Yusef Hawkins, on of the Central Park 5, whom Trump ran ads in the Times calling for the death penalty is now running 1/2

Funny how right after Trump got arrested:
— GOP leaders expelled the Tennessee legislators
— DeSantis arrested protestors in Florida
— And now there have been major leaks of US classified documents
Coincidence? Or retaliation from the right?

It costs you nothing to share this.
For every $1 you donate to your local food pantry you'll be providing 12 pounds of food — the equivalent of 10 meals — to families in need.
