Literally the Russian flag in the post. Two of them

Minnesota’s flags will fly at half staff in honor and remembrance of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman. She woke up every morning determined to make Minnesota a better place, and she will be greatly missed.

The Brennan Center for Justice is horrified and saddened by today’s shootings in Minnesota. We’re thinking about the victims and their families. 1/3

So proud to be a part of this amazing morning. Location ocean beach San Francisco #nokings

Double.

May the anti-ICE movement continue to spread nationwide! This is the Los Angeles spirit your news broadcast isn’t showing…

Can't wait for Jake Tapper's book on how the corporate media conspired to cover up Trump's dictatorship by falsely hyping violence in LA and recirculating WH media talking points

Hey, ‘Merika, friendly reminder: A lot of the fruit, vegetables, nuts, dairy, and meat you consume come from CA. Spoiler alert: Without low wage immigrant workers, there is no domestic ag industry, now more than ever with US farmers faces steep reciprocal tariffs around the world.

154 million lives saved in the past 50 years and we have a head of HHS that wants to rid the world of vaccines. He just removed every single member of our top vaccine advisory committee. Making America Sicker Again!

BREAKING Truth: The situation in LA.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Deploying the National Guard—over the objections of state leaders and local law enforcement—is a dangerous escalation. This isn’t about enforcing law and order, it’s about seizing power and control. Americans won’t tolerate this slide into authoritarianism.

ATTN: If you’re a member of the National Guard or you work for ICE and you’re asked to violate the law or your oath, contact Whistleblower Aid to safely, securely, and legally blow the whistle. You can support Whistleblower Aid HERE: whistlebloweraid.org/beans

If your response to this video is, “That’s what I voted for”— Fuck you. Fuck you very much. You’re heartless.

"In our federal system, the National Gov. possesses only limited powers; the States and the people retain the remainder. The States have broad authority to enact legislation for the public good—what we have often called a 'police power.' The Fed. Gov., by contrast, has no such authority."-SCOTUS '14

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

With the $45 million being spent on the president's parade here’s what that money could do for veterans instead: House 3k veterans for an entire year in transitional housing Provide full PTSD treatment for 3.75k veterans for a year Deliver job training to 9k veterans through 12-week programs

If ignorant misogynist voters won’t vote for a woman because she’s a woman, it puts America at a disadvantage and we’re missing out on roughly half of the talent pool who could better our lives…Just infuriating

"What they want is for people to look at who's rich, who’s important & say, 'That’s just the way things are. That’s the way they're supposed to be.' They don’t want people looking back at the past & saying, “This is because of slavery or Jim Crow or because women were excluded from the workforce.'”

African developers make a game where African characters steal back actual artefacts that are actually kept in Western museums and private collections while teaching you about the artefacts. This looks awesome.

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

Christian Nationalists pretend that the United States was founded as a Christian nation, but the Constitution never mentions Jesus or Christianity. Not even once. Instead, it bans government promotion of *any* religion. Don't be fooled by their lying propaganda.

America First = America Alone Unprecedented: the U.S. is the only country out of 184 to see a drop in international tourism this year. Everyone else is rebounding. We’re projected to lose $12.5 billion in spending—jobs, small businesses, entire communities will feel this.

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

In the Gilded Age, tariffs fueled lobbying, favoritism, and graft in the federal government. Let’s not go back to that.

No matter how Republicans dress it up, they are taking away health care from MILLIONS of seniors, people with disabilities, expectant moms, and children — all to make the wealthy even wealthier.

Did Bobby Kennedy just say DJT can't be bought??? Ha!! Bet people forget that the drop in drug prices is tied to billionaire tax cuts. Also tied to the price of drugs in Europe where they are telling drug companies to raise prices. So drug companies come out ahead & we a pay more in the end.

Is DJT the fat friend??
