Fairly liberal, nearly middle age, and currently living in arguably the worst state. I'm sure that I will make astute observations in this app that shock and awe.

The Iranian regime is a fascist nightmare. But let’s be clear what’s happening: War w/o Congress approval State of war leading to further domestic repression — including domestic military — & expanded police state This war isn’t about making Americans safer. It’s about expanding Trump’s control.

Did you know that Congress approved the 19th amendment on this day in 1919? Even though it wasn’t officially adopted until 1920, it gave the citizens the right to vote regardless of sex. You know, just in case this admin tries to disappear this one, we’ve got you covered. 🙌

Cutting Pell Grants would put college, community college, and technical schools out of reach for the people who need these opportunities most. We need to expand access to education, not make it harder to gain the skills needed for good jobs.

Hegseth deployed troops to Southern California without funding for food, water, fuel, or equipment. Marines are trained for military combat – not law enforcement. Trump must rescind his orders, Hegseth must resign, & law enforcement should be handled by state/local authorities.

Abducting mothers from our community outside of the court room as they desperately work to secure a legal pathway to residency doesn’t keep us safe. These abductions are sowing fear, robbing babies of their loving parents, and putting all of us at risk. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/06/09/m...

So interesting that @theguardian.com covers these stories but US news media takes a pass? Like US readers wouldn't want to know the new Gestapo was organizing and training in their communities, supported by the Kremlin no less? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Republicans just started markup on their Screw America plan—in the dead of night. No cameras. No accountability. Just cruelty. They’re hiding. I’m not. I’ll be here every hour fighting back. Trump, Elon, and the GOP won’t get away with screwing over the American people.

Terrible things are happening outside. At any time of night and day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart; men, women and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared. - Anne Frank

Mayor Baraka was ARRESTED for doing what Republicans claim to care about: OVERSIGHT. Like the true leaders they are, Rep. Coleman, @replamonica.bsky.social, & @menendez.house.gov were right there with him. The Trump admin keeps weaponizing power against anyone who dares hold them accountable.

Sarah Fuckabee Sanders is still begging her fuhrer to send federal aid to Arkansas after recent tornados. When a favored child (who has never had an ill public word for her leader) can't get the support her constituents need, that doesn't bode well for the rest of America.

Trump’s organization is out here selling Trump 2028 hats like the Constitution is just a suggestion. Reminder: The 22nd Amendment exists. You can’t run for a third term.
