I stand with Buona Forchetta and all of the employees.

I don’t know how many times we have to say this, but the U.S. government is not a business and shouldn’t be run like one. It’s a service—for the people.

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...

As I've said before, what we're dealing with fundamentally here, and have been dealing with for some time, is evil. Our political norms and political media prohibit talking about a mainstream political faction this way. But it is the truth. It needs to be known and it needs to be said.

Something spicy & delicious as a taco has gotten under Trumplestiltkin's thin tangerine skin. Seems the master of mean, juvenile nicknames can dish them out but when directed towards him, he can't take it, angrily calling it "nasty."🤣 Good to know. (you know what to do!) 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.

Thou shalt not call yourself “the law and order party” when your leader is a convicted felon who constantly pardons criminals in exchange for millions of dollars in bribes.

Guys, it's the oligarchs. If you want to blame someone for 2024, blame the oligarchs. Anyone telling you to blame someone else is part of the oligarchy. Dark money has been to blame since citizens united.

Brazen, open corruption. Presidency for sale. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...

PLEASE, PLEASE no. This cannot happen.

Reagan started the shift of money upwards. R's play this game well and have kept Dems from being able to reverse the shift.

One of the reasons t. and the R's are so successful is b/c the words they use and the phrasing they use is simple. Sixth grade reading level or less. Progressives need to get off the intellectual high-horse...consult a thesaurus: say the same thing with the simpler, easier to understand word.

They pretend that the USA was founded as a Christian nation. Then they pretend and insist they’re Christians. Then they govern like the motherfucking antichrist.

He is such a loser.

He got into Wharton as a transfer student, but—according to his sister!—only after paying someone to take the SAT for him. wapo.st/3F9jVKH

This is it. Dems need to defer to national Black leadership. They need to start conferring and developing the plan for 2026 immediately.

JUST-RELEASED GEORGIA TEEN Ximena Arias-Cristobal: “Even having the right paperwork doesn’t mean anything anymore with the presidency we have now… just being Hispanic you’re a target.” More: www.timesfreepress.com/news/2025/ma...

#ProudBlue This was a beautiful moment. Now the evil GOP wants to take healthcare away from millions. The two parties are NOT the same.

Boom. Love this for them.

Courts cannot use the word facilitate. They have to say, "bring him back" and give a definite deadline, "bring O.C.G. physically back into the contiguous United States on or before June 1, 2025". Add even more detail...the more the better. This won't stop until contempt of court is on order.

Yes. I will support Harris no matter what she decides to do.

Let's hope this is just the start.

Are we great yet?

Good for them! I'm not surprised. I guess we will start to hear more about this kind of thing happening.

As Budget Chair I got constant Republican lectures to ignore looming climate disaster because of the debt. “The debt, the debt, the DEBT!!” Now they’re in charge and they’re hiking debt limit $4 trillion for tax breaks, mostly to the richest. What a sham.

Elon and his goons are still stealing your data. They're still assaulting the Constitution. They're still terrorizing federal workers. Don't buy his bullshit. "Stepping back" just means "please stop protesting my business." You know what to do. #teslatakedown

Here, here! It is time for the teeth! This is a completely new landscape and the old, "give them weeks to produce docs/evidence, etc." over and over and over is DONE. Time for criminal and/or civil contempt. NOW.

Right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to push through a bill that would put millions of Americans at risk of losing their health care. They want to cut federal funding for Medicaid, take away tax credits that help more people afford coverage, and raise costs for working class families.

Posted this afternoon. Masked ICE agents arresting immigrants at their court hearings in Dallas.

Trump cut nearly $3 billion in the first 100 days. Cancer is the #2 killer of people. Anyway, MAGA. www.axios.com/2025/05/19/n...

Please. Finally, a judge willing to do what needs to be done.

Boyle: "Out from CBO, just tonight, are the distributional effects of this bill. And what does it show? The bottom 10 percent of Americans will actually be poorer as a result of this bill with the biggest benefit going to the top 1 percent."

This is the best option I've read so far.
