Imagine thinking “Don’t vote for a corrupt, serial sexual predator that killed seniors and took money to cover it up, for Mayor,” is some radical or inconvenient take within the Democratic Party. Ignore the lobbyists and billionaires. Don’t. Rank. Andrew Cuomo.

If you’re a NYC voter, here’s the reality: Andrew Cuomo resigned for serial sexual harassment. Vote however you want. But don’t pretend voting for him isn’t a choice — and a bad one that represents what’s broken with American politics.

💯tired of it as well ! He tells us stuff like we don’t already know. Schumer needs to step up or step aside. We need fighters in our party, not someone telling us how bad it is.

I've been saying for months that this is the darkest timeline. I had a friend die over the weekend and now this. Why...is this world such a sad, heartbreaking mess?

This is unfathomably shameful. How do we even have to debate this? Why would anyone ever again be so foolish as to trust or help the United States if this is how we treat people who risk their lives on our behalf?

WTF?

Please spread in light of the continued MAGA disinformation efforts regarding this right-wing, Trump-supporting assassin.

Holy sh*t! Protesters are lined up for a mile in the small town of Geneva, Illinois for the No Kings rally!

Horrible. Now imagine someone impersonating ICE wearing a mask kidnapping people.

If you’re undocumented, don’t march tomorrow. Stay home. Let the rest of us get this one. Solidarity ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼

ICE racially profiles Native Americans, the People of the First Nation, the real citizens of America! They look as if they regret pulling these wonderful ladies over. They get an earful.

Pritzker's willingness to speak over these fascist pigs is honestly a great endorsement of his suitability to lead in this moment

I can see how Hitler happened. The last decade or so in the U.S. makes it easy to imagine. Not just Hitler; the Tulsa race massacre, Rosewood, lynching, slavery, the Rwanda & Rohingya genocides & more. There is a wolf pack evil that lurks in the human heart and it’s easily activated by a demagogue.

What an overwhelmingly bad and dangerous moment we are all living in.

Let’s be honest, when it comes to human beings entering this country, Republicans, Evangelicals, and MAGAs don’t give a damn about documentation. It’s all about pigmentation. The "right way" is the white way... johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/the-right-...

Everyone saw Grand Park's hot pink benches being stacked into a barricade on Sunday. What an exceptional statement from RIOS, the benches' designers instagram.com/rios.imagines "These pieces were designed to move, adapt, welcome, connect — and now protect"

It seems hard to overstate how dangerous and retrograde it is that the president and other public figures on the right are openly relitigating the legacy of **Robert E. Lee**

At some point we're going to have to stop asking "when is (insert name) going to step up and say he's gone to far" and realize that maybe they are ok with the president's actions. We must realize that no one is going to swoop in and "save" us, it has to be us... we the people. Good morning

This is why people hate cops.

This is a map of Los Angeles. The arrow points to a red dot. That red dot (roughly) represents the protest area seen on TV. To me, the gross mischaracterization of what’s happening in Los Angeles looks like an excuse to deploy the military—to protect government assets like ICE.

Worried about those government contracts, are you? We regret everything you've done to destroy our Country You have the opportunity to be a great philanthropist but you choose evil and cruelty You're sick You're an addict 3AM posting this. You high, bro?

Hey corporate media, do your damn jobs. ~ Everyone

ICE was "responding" to the chaos ICE itself created. It was not responding to the way LA is without intentional provocation from ICE. And now the National Guard is "responding" to the chaos ICE created. It is not responding to the way LA is without intentional provocation from ICE.

liberals are stuck on this dumb as shit idea that everything we do must be focused on deprogramming racist grandpa i dont give a fuck about racist grandma. i want the people who dont get a boner about racism but are still justifiably cynical about politics actually doing something good for a change

“You’re on the wrong side of history. You should be standing here with us… you took an oath to the constitution, not the fascists in the White House— he’s laughing at you… You’re tough behind your masks & fatigues, but how do you feel on the inside?”

The whole thing started when ICE agents jumped out of vans at a Home Depot in tactical gear and charged at a group of day laborers.

Dems tend to lose a lot because we never hold the line on anything and are constantly stuck with the worst of both worlds. If you embrace social justice but then turn away from it the moment it's hard, you a) piss off the right and b) piss off your base to c) please Matt Yglesias, who has one vote.

Imagine putting on all this tactical gear and latching onto a military assault vehicle so you can storm a minimall on Sepulveda and apprehend a line cook at family restaurant.

Note: this is a blanket declaration with no specific mention of Los Angeles. It simply states the National Guard are now assisting and protecting ICE anywhere at the President discretion for 60 Days. That’s a militarized state, my friends.

Just to recap, Trump has taken the extraordinary step of federalizing 2000 member of the California National Guard — over the objections of the state’s governor — in response to a protest that currently involves A FEW DOZEN PEOPLE AT A HOME DEPOT

Critically important point from Juliette. The only real justification for federalizing the nat guard over a governors objection is when the civil authorities are defying the law. This is attack on the sovereign right of the people of California to self government.

pro tip: if you high-fived as cops were being bludgeoned with fire extinguishers on Jan 6, you don't get to say one fucking word about legitimate protests against ICE thugs and goons. just stick a fucking sock in it

So, to be clear, Musk has now admitted he funded a man he believes to be a pedophile to be president. And Trump has now admitted that he gave access to high level government secrets to a man he believes to be a big time drug addict. This should be *the* story on the Sunday shows tomorrow.

No @RoKhanna.bsky.social. Hell no. @elonmusk used his platform to spread lies & elect Trump, he then spent 4 months destroying lives & starving children to death. And now bcuz he turned on Trump, you wanna suck up to him? Fuck no. Come on my fellow Dems, be better than this. This is wrong.👇

Excellent question.

Perfectly put.👇

when people argue that democrats shouldnt stand up for transgender people, i want you to substitute "transgender" in your head with "black" "latino" "asian" or "women" and understand why its a non-starter. either we all have equal rights or none of us does. this is simple.

Happy little Yellow Warbler living his best life! 🪶 #birds #photography #birdphotography #wildlifephotography #nature #wisconsin #birding #birdsofbluesky

lots of cool #birds along the South Platte River in #WateronCanyon but no Bighorn Sheep that it is famous for. #colorado #cedarwawing #yellowwarbler #hummingbird #whitepelicans

It was never about deporting violent criminals. If that were true, where are the examples? Trump would be shouting the victims’ names from the rooftops. What we’re actually seeing are heartbreaking videos of families torn apart by masked men who look more like white supremacists than ICE agents.

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.
