The Mountaintop We lift every voice and sing — The name of a Black Woman who stood at the mountaintop. With audacity that reflected off the glass ceilings that shattered when you spoke her name. Kamala Devi Harris. You stood. Standing in the spirit of Shirley Chisolm, Unbought, Unbossed and Undenying. You dreamed. The girl who would not be deferred and went on to write a letter to the world with a signature that now reads — It’s Possible. It’s Possible for a Black girl from Oakland, California, to see the mountaintop. And when she gets there to take the world off her shoulders and sit. Sitting in the resilience of Fannie Lou Hammer, you took the world by Storm. Never going Rouge and letting anyone take you out of character. You laughed. You filled rooms with hope and integrity and lit paths with perseverance. You opened. Doors that had been closed. You stepped — Over walls that had been built. You climbed. The Mount Everest of expectations with a smile that sat at the intersection of joy and justice. Because a country built in spite of you, you stood in spite of. You are the embodiment of what can be, unburdened by what has been. Rest in the knowing that you are ours. We thank you for the view from your moutaintop.

If you are stress-shopping today do not do it on amazon.

Hey, credulous media, I hope this clears things up for you:

“ When a Clown moves into the Palace, he doesn’t become a King, The Palace becomes a Circus” is a Turkish proverb which is worth heeding in the coming days.

This is not Kamala’s fault btw. She worked her ass off to a beautiful campaign with the ~100 days she had. She’s arguably the most qualified US presidential candidate ever, with prior experience in all 3 branches of government. Americans simply voted against their best interest.

people who say "well trump was president in 2016 you'll live 🤓" do not realize tens of thousands of people died because he downplayed a pandemic and women today are dying because of the 3 supreme court justices he appointed

The people of #IL17 have spoken—and they’re sending their neighbor back to Congress! Thank you, Central and Northwestern Illinois, for your trust and support. The forecast is for bright days ahead! 🇺🇸

Two of the most qualified women in the country ran for president against an unqualified, racist game show host who had a history of committing fraud and sexual abuse. And the country was basically split 50-50. That should tell us some things.

god it must feel so good not to give a shit about other people — to be liberated from the burden of defending even your own self-interest.

My fellow white women once again trading the rights and lives of others in exchange for a few crumbs and some tax cuts. Try as you might, the men in your lives aren’t saving you a seat at the table. Your weakness doesn’t make you one of them, it makes you convenient. Pathetic.

BREAKING: Mainstream media sat on explosive tapes for weeks, burying the story until it finally saw the light of day at 11 PM on October 31. I was one of the first to break the news, and within 24 hours, The Guardian picked it up. Now, Jimmy Kimmel is out here questioning the media's deafening silence. These tapes capture Epstein discussing his "friendship" with Trump for 100 hours—yep, 100 hours of damning revelations about a man Epstein called morally bankrupt. Kimmel’s shock is justified; the American media went all in on manufactured scandals for years but went quiet on this. When it’s Trump, suddenly legacy outlets have “standards,” like the truth here isn’t essential. Kimmel’s point isn’t just another late-night punchline; it’s an indictment of a media complex that selectively buries real stories and expects us to forget them. And his message is clear: this silence isn’t just oversight—it’s complicity. It’s up to the public to remember and act, to push back on the media's selective memory, and to keep these revelations alive. If they won’t bring accountability, we sure as hell will.

Didn’t articulate one single coherent policy. Just jokes and hate. Performing better than the last election. This country is sick.

Its getting increasingly more likely that a rapist will be the 47th President of the United States of America.

He was the worst President in history. And when he got voted out, he tried to stage a coup. Then he stole national secrets and sold the ones he didn't store in the bathroom. He was convicted of fraud, found liable of sexual assault and convicted of 34 felonies. He is half a billion dollars in debt, owned by God only knows who, and the biggest national security risk the nation has ever had. But at least he's not a Black woman.

The flip side is that Trump ran an awful campaign. He gave a terrible RNC speech, his VP was deeply unpopular, he lost the debate, he had no ground game to speak of, he offended key demographic groups ... and none of it mattered.

Alright well….Ima keep runnin my mouth til they throw me in the gulag that’s all I know.

@feelsdesperate @Timodc You're an embarrassment.

@Timodc You’re a complete embarrassment and should take just a few minutes to be ashamed of yourself.

My main thought: We're probably going back, but we can't go anywhere. Our era will be about protecting their attempts to dismantle the progress that was made in the last century or so. It's a more sober mission than pushing for progress but it is an important one. ☮️

I will never forgive @jack.
