That's fabulous! The Brooklyn Library has a program called "Books Unbanned". They will give an e-library card to any student in the U.S. who is living under a book ban and they can check out e-books from there. #FreedomToRead

It’s time for the media to reassess their coverage of the Biden administration. Historic, bipartisan legislation has been passed, US leadership is restored on the world stage, & unemployment is the lowest it’s been in half a century. The White House deserves more credit for that.

'[Elizabeth Peratrovich] crossed the chamber to stand by the Senate president. “I would not have expected,” she said, “that I, who am barely out of savagery, would have to remind gentlemen with five thousand years of recorded civilization behind them of our Bill of Rights.”'

I'm upset that the GOP is trying to blame all the misleading Covid instructions on Fauci. There's no reason to go after Fauci for the mistakes tfg made. Why is it so hard for Republicans to take responsibility for the things they do wrong? Why are they incapable of being decent about anything?

Why are we paying these Republicans in congress if they're going to hold up any legislation, confirmations , or just doing their jobs. They ran off to New York for the trial. Can't they get rid of them or impeach them.? Are they not aiding and a betting a insurrectionist.

The "Party of Law and Order" demands they be treated differently. They should get a pass on crime like their orange god has done all of his life.

Mass shooters who *directly* referenced “The Great Replacement Theory:”
New Zealand shooter; killed 51.
El Paso; killed 23.
Tree of Life; killed 11.
Buffalo; killed 10.
Fox et al: “Obviously, video games caused this.”
The knot you have to twist into to believe that, must be painful. #ItsTheGuns

Wow. I won’t say anything beyond that because it’s absolutely true. Though I don’t count on Fauxgressives having any self-reflection moments.
Professor Kyle @blackcatproseDon't know who's the tail & who's the dog – MAGA or the far left – but at TFG rallies they're now chanting "Genocide Joe." Whoever started it, the liberal side needs to cut that shit out. Biden's NOT the bad guy & we need to stick together against anti-democracy bigots who hate both Jews & Muslims.09:09 PM - Apr 13, 2024

DBA @dobetteralwaysAs Frost said, nothing #Gold can stay. The way the setting sun hit this field of grass created a very pretty golden hue across the rippling stalks. It only lasted a short while, but was beautiful to see in person.10:36 AM - Apr 03, 2024

Getting really annoyed with having to hear people in my life complain about inflation, & blaming current government for it, as if the issue hasn't been a constant part of life in a capitalist run society that ignores science (climate change driven inflation, pandemic induced inflation,etc),

Just getting sick of all the talk of delaying all these trials. Normal middle class or lower.. it doesn't take a year to go to trial. I had a friend who was involved in a shooting and the trial was 2 months later. Especially now if he were to get in office and make it go away. It must be nice to go

Biden-Harris HQ:
Leader Jeffries: That was an embarrassment from Republicans last night. Marjorie Taylor Greene shows up in campaign paraphernalia. And then these people want to lecture Joe Biden because he delivered a strong and forceful speech? MAGA wants to lecture us on decorum? Get lost

Good analysis from Aaron Blake, normally an annoying both-sideser. Biden has backed Republicans into a corner where they're turning down things they want to please their vile overlord. Gifted article.

Republicans demanded a bill on the border.
Democrats agreed to the bill.
Republicans then did a 180 and killed their own border bill — because Donald Trump wanted to deny Joe Biden a win.
Those are the FACTS — and EVERY news story on the border must include them. #SOTU

The craziest thing about all of this craziness is.....
We're just sitting back watching. That's exactly what Germany did.
We see it.
We talk about it.
And we do nothing.
I really do believe sometimes 🇺🇸 don't fully grasp what's happening. Like it can't happen.

Pity the nation whose leaders are liars, whose sages are silenced,
and whose bigots haunt the airwaves.

Also sick of tax$ going to fund house reps who can't be bothered to do their job. There was no valid reason for speaker Johnson to put the House in recess right now. He just wants to avoid being outmanuvered by Dems to put the aid bill up for a vote. We need to vote out all the bad actors.
