Women deserve to be safe in parks and schools and gyms and nightclubs, and definitely in their homes and their beds. That day may eventually come, though sadly, it will not be soon.

You’ve let this nation’s children down by thrusting them into an America that is far less secure, less compassionate, less decent, more fractured, and more violent than it was when he arrived.

I hope whatever you got for your soul was worth it to you. It sure as hell isn’t for the rest of us.

We know it isn’t merely a political party that you’re threatened by, trying to silence, consumed with hatred for, and seeking to eradicate—it’s the American people.

The human and civil rights of our people, the future of our children, the integrity of our nation, our standing in the world, and the defense of our Constitution are all far too important to squander as a middle finger to people we want to piss off.

Our Democracy is in peril, but our most treasured relationships with people are in tatters, too. We are trying to salvage both, and it’s exhausting.

MAGA Christians' gaze is so laser-focused on the afterlife that this life is almost irrelevant, as is the suffering of people in the here and now.

The daily, incendiary filth Trump manufactures is recorded, and it testifies loudly to his hatred for a large portion of this nation. As long as you support it, you’re declaring what you value or complicit in something you object to.

Being young men, there’s a good chance you may not have any clue about the terrible optics of you all yukin’ it up with an Olympic-level predator like Donald Trump.

These Olympic athletes remind us who we are as a nation: diverse, resilient, fearless, imperfect, and defiantly joyful in the face of our demons and detractors.

It will not be the politicians or the priests that save us, it will be the poets, and the painters, and the six-string prophets armed with three chords and the truth.

Vance may be able to B.S. his boss’s sycophantic disciples with this fraudulent, heretical, Jesus-less parade of hypocrisy, but the rest of the world (Christians and non-Christians alike) knows they’re full of it.

Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Halftime show was a bold and glorious microcosm of the America that we are becoming, whether MAGAs like it or not.

History will declare them shameful mothers, betrayers of victims of violence, and disgraces to our nation. They broke through the glass ceiling and are wounding other women with the jagged shards.
