📣 My hot take on Matt Gaetz filing a motion to vacate the Speaker of the House is that everyone reading this should chip in a few bucks to ensure Hakeem Jeffries becomes Speaker of the House.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg broke barriers her entire life. She was a fierce legal mind and a relentless advocate for justice, progress, and equality.
This Forever Stamp is a beautiful tribute to her life and legacy.

Of course you realize that if Ginni Thomas is fair game, so is Jane Roberts

BREAKING NEWS!
Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz filed a resolution late Monday to oust Kevin McCarthy as speaker, setting up a likely showdown vote in the House in the days ahead.
The far-right Republican from Florida has for months threatened to use a procedural tool — called a motion to vacate — to try to strip McCarthy of his office.

Starting soon, I think I’m going to be sharing a lot of this guy with you. I’ll be picking him up within the next few weeks, but I love him already. Isn’t he the cutest?!

I’m really ok with billionaires, the few I know are all socially responsible and worked hard but of course had luck as well. Won’t debate that part. I will say if there *is* an argument against a billionaire class it’s Musk. The absurd amount of power he controls just through Starlink makes me very nervous. My fears are far more centered around humans like Musk and his ilk as opposed to AI.

It does not matter if parents consent to a child’s “sexual identity”. Queer and trans kids will be queer and trans. It is not a choice.
What Trudeau and others like him want is for those gay and trans kids to be safe. What Poilievre and these other assholes want is for those kids to be in the closet or dead. #CdnPoli #TransRightsAreHumanRights

I am reminded it is Banned Books Week.
Here's the truth: Someone in your neighborhood is trying to ban books, especially books with queer characters and non-white characters. The books they're trying to ban are primarily written for teen audience, or are written for adult audiences and have teen appeal. They want the books banned because you can intimidate a teenager or a young adult into not being their full selves. Books, by virtue of being inanimate, cannot be bullied into hiding.

@Ulrich_the_Elder Even when he's gone, Trumpism/fascism is here to stay now.
That's the horrifying part.

General John Kelly,
Now that you have FINALLY confirmed the “suckers and losers” and other derogatory comments Trump made about wounded soldiers and vets, I implore you to say it on camera.
It’s a plea being made by vets on behalf of vets.
Go on camera for us.
