The only person to have universal rights in this country is a straight, white, able-bodied, Christian man.

If Christian Nationalist parents are allowed to have their kids opt-out of any books that dare mention anyone gay, then all the other parents should be allowed to let their kids opt-out from the Ten Commandments.

This video is of Zohran Mamdani confronting Tom Homan. This is a why he won. He fights backs. Democrats take note.

MUST WATCH: Oceanside CA: Militarized DHS (HSI) smashed windows, assault rifles drawn, tossed flashbangs and sent drones into the apartment which had 2 kids inside. They then told neighbors they were going to use tear gas, and they’d probably be exposed. Please share widely. WTF

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

The left better start figuring out how to weaponize today's decision rather than just (rightfully) criticizing it. - Go back into Judge Kaczmaryk's court to dissolve all of his nationwide orders. - Pass gun bans and insist any order applies only to plaintiffs.

I'm embarrassed to say I did not know this.

Muslim guy: what if a poor person could buy vegetables Reasonable New Yorker: I am moving to a Whites Only compound 1,140 miles away from here as soon as possible. Please invite me onto the television to say this again.

Brilliant. 10/10. No notes.

Amid allegations of inhumane and unsanitary conditions in ICE facilities, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is taking further steps to continue skirting congressional oversight. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

OMG! 👑🔥👑🔥👑🔥 I've never been prouder of my Dutch ancestry than I am today. Netherlands Queen Máxima is the wife of King Willem-Alexander. She became queen consort upon his accession to the throne in 2013. Real Queens know when they are standing next to a fake, tacky, wannabe king. 👑 #Respect 🇳🇱

Mitch McConnell and those of his ilk want you to get over your loved ones dying without medical care because they want their tax cuts. But one day, we will get over your existence and you will only be remembered for your legacy of evil and cowardice towards Americans. #MedicaidSavesOurLives

Yep :)

😳

Murphy: "The president seems to be deliberately misleading the public when in fact Iran still has the potential to rush to a bomb in a matter of months."

kind of funny that americans think that once you become mayor, you can just enact sharia law. like zero understanding of the legislative process. just raise your hand and say "ok it's sharia time now"

Birthright Citizenship/Nationwide Injunctions. Louisiana Redistricting.

PSA - very well put

Crockett: The First Lady, a model— when I say model I’m not talking about Tyra Banks, Cindy Crawford, or Naomi Campbell level— applied for an Einstein visa. You’re supposed to have some sort of significant achievement… She had none of those. It doesn’t take an Einstein to see the math ain’t mathin

the history of the US desperately trying to discredit socialists and communists is deep.

I came to the US for a year as a teen, had this on tape and a Walkman. Must have listened to it a million times, and kept listening to it as I got older. One of my all time favorite albums ❤️

Something the Mamdani win demonstrates is the extent to which the reigning cadre of ancient, establishment, centrist Dems think it’s more important to be on good terms with their GOP colleagues than it is to represent their own voters, and how thoroughly sick of this literally everyone is.

Clinton, Clyburn, Summers, Palantir, Bloomberg, NYT, Wall St, AIPAC...all tried their best. The entire establishment went full racist and Islamophobic in the end. Still Mamdani won. Biggest F U to the Democratic Establishment and 1% since AOC win. Wow.

Whenever I see Dems claim they are out of power, there’s nothing they can do, I think of Brad Lander and how he escorted people to court while being comptroller and running for mayor. Do something or get the f out of the way so there can be more Brad Landers.

Lardass can play general to his shrunken little heart explodes, but: 1) His Big Beautiful Bill Sucks, and; 2) He is Still in the EPSTEIN FILES in a starring role. Period.

Hope and solidarity won tonight, and will win again in November. Congratulations, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

Brad Lander shouting “Good fucking riddance” to Andrew Cuomo is the energy I want from every Democrat in 2026 and 2028.

Well said. If that doesn't sum it up, I'm not sure what does.

Three years ago, a corrupt Supreme Court seized our rights and overturned Roe v. Wade. The resulted is just what we predicted. Women dying because they can't get basic healthcare. Doctors afraid to treat patients. We will not stop fighting until abortion rights are restored.

A win! Thank you to everyone who spoke out! After facing bipartisan resistance, the Senate Parliamentarian, ruled that Sen. Mike Lee’s proposal to sell off millions of acres of federal land cannot be included under reconciliation rules.

Everything is under comptrol.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

🤬🤬🤬 Keep those phones charged and your doors locked.

Ceasefire? Now where were we?

This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.

I do, I want her as the top Dem on Oversight!

The fact that our military was perfectly happy to use weapons abroad in violation of the War Powers Act doesn't bode well for us when they are asked to use weapons at home in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act.

Remember when we had that other building in DC along with the White House? It was full of politicians? Con-something? Anyway.

World War 3 kinda sucks, but you know, it was either this or pronouns
