my crazy take is that you can't really understand american gender roles unless you understand that they're basically a reactionary backlash / trauma response to the events of world war 2

미국 장관들의 이번 방한은 낡은 군사동맹 질서를 강화하고 군사적 대결을 부추기는 것이 아니라, 한반도와 동아시아에 평화와 협력을 촉진하는 여정이 되어야 합니다 @SecBlinken @SecDef 한반도 종전 평화 캠페인 성명 보기 👉 endthekoreanwar.net/posts/55 #EndtheKoreanWar #휴전에서평화로
Anti-Asian racism isn’t un-American—it’s quintessentially American. You can’t kill millions of Asians across the Pacific for a whole ass century in the name of America and then out of nowhere say that anti-Asian racism is un-American. That’s just lying.

“It’s gonna be costly to you.” I’ve charged extortion in mob cases with similar language.
Wow. WaPo just released a recording showing President Trump attempting to blackmail Georgia's Secretary of State to overturn the election. Listen:

What happens next matters. In the past, efforts to build "unity" and "consensus" in Washington have too often meant turning over the keys to giant corporations and their lobbyists. We can't let that happen again.

While I may be the first woman in this office, I will not be the last—because every little girl watching tonight sees that this is a country of possibilities.

I don't know, but it sure seems to me like not calling the race when the outcome is obvious in states like PA and NV gives the president more time to spout misinformation.

For those dreading, or hoping, that a conservative 6-3 Supreme Court with three appointees of Donald Trump will overturn the results of the election and deem him to be re-elected: there is absolutely no chance of that happening, whatsoever. None.

They gutted the Voting Rights Act, slowed the mail, intimidated voters, invested billions in disinformation, closed countless polling stations in Dem precincts and everyone is running around saying, "How did Republicans get so many votes?!"

50 members of Congress on the record in support of a peace agreement in Korea--all possible due to the many many Korean Americans and peace activists who collected signatures, organized house meetings, called and met with their representatives and shared their stories!
BIG NEWS: @RepKatiePorter just announced her co-sponsorship of H.Res. 152, which calls for an end to the Korean War and a peace agreement. Thank you for being a #KoreaPeaceChampion and recognizing that peace is the best way to solve the nuclear crisis on the Korean Peninsula.

"They left me a mess." "North Korea is a problem." "We’re gonna make sure we can control them." Actually, the US and North Korea have been locked in a state of war for 70 years. Maybe it’s time for a new approach? #EndtheKoreanWar #PresidentialDebate2020

The climate crisis is an existential threat—and we’re running out of time to act. Our planet, our communities, and our economy can’t survive four more years of Donald Trump. We need to build a clean energy future—and @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris have the plan to get it done.

Yo, @JoeBiden, calling KJU a thug won’t get us closer to ending the 70 year old war or peace to the Korean Peninsula. #Debates2020
