That is in fact what this administration has done.

BREAKING: Dems have FLIPPED the Omaha mayoral race. John Ewing Jr has beaten the GOP incumbent!!

The NYT and SCOTUS both believe it isn’t “corruption” unless an official is caught accepting a giant bag of cash with literal dollar signs on it *and* saying in front of witnesses “in exchange for this illegal offer of money I will do ____”

The church said it's terminating a decades-long partnership with the federal government to help refugees arriving in the U.S., citing moral opposition to resettling white Afrikaners from South Africa.

This video is making the rounds again for a reason. A great example of how you make your voices heard—without saying a word. Power in numbers and it sends a clear message. This is what democracy looks like: standing up to fascism, tyranny, and racism. This is the way!

This part

First they arrested a judge. Now they’ve arrested the mayor of a major American city. This isn’t normal. This is an assault on democracy.

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America: 1. Break up corporate monopolies 2. Continue building union power 3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

I have been seeing a lot of videos with young women starting off a conversation on the first date by asking who he voted for… Yes, girls. That’s how you do it. ❤️

Rubio publicly criticizing an ally for cracking down on right-wing extremism. And Germany hitting back. We are in a new world

The speed with which Congress not having the power of the purse, law and the Constitution be damned, has been normalized by the press is the most terrifying thing to me.

yo, protect this little sister at ALL costs ✊🏽✨

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

I remain proud AF to have voted for both of these brilliant supremely qualified women, I’ll never regret it.

A US citizen with a learning disability who has just suffered a medical emergency asks a CBP officer for directions outside the emergency room. He ends up detained in an icebox for ten days and has the assistant secretary of DHS lying about him to the public at large. popular.info/p/us-citizen...

On this #420day, we celebrate the 52nd anniversary of performers “Gail & Dale” singing the hit, “One Toke Over the Line,” on Lawrence Welk. Neither had an idea the song was about pot, and Welk thought the song was a “modern spiritual.”

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Constituents to Chuck Grassley: "Are you bringing back that guy from El Salvador?" Senior Citizen: “If I get an order to pay a ticket to pay $1200 and I just say ‘no’, does that stand up? Because he just got an order from the Supreme Court and he just said ‘screw it’” “I’M PISSED!”

12 Dem Senators and 48 Dem House members voted for the Laken Riley Act—allowing US Govt to deport immigrants on the mere accusation of a crime. As you see those 60 Dems complain about Mahmoud Khalil, Rumeysa Ozturk, or Kilmar Abrego Garcia, among many more—please know they enabled this fascism.

The moment the orange convicted felon was sent back to our White House instead of to prison for his crimes is the moment democracy died in America. Both Hillary Clinton and VP Kamala Harris warned everyone that he would be a lawless tyrant and that has come true.

“Home-growns are next.” I feel sick.

Just in case those of us fighting for democracy in court didn't need another challenge, Big Law turning collaborators is here and growing. My firm and others continue to fight. We will never back down. We will never bend a knee. We will never obey.

The four law firms that it was announced are now Trump collaborators -- Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins, Simpson Thacher, and A&O Shearman Sterling -- ALSO agreed today to "Disavow DEI" as part of a settlement with EEOC. Why would any new associate join such a place? Why would any partner stay?

There are numerous calls to investigate whether Trump and his cronies engaged in insider trading, pump and dumps, etc. But it won't be DOJ. It won't be the SEC. It won't be Congress. You know who CAN investigate this? NY AG Letitia James - who has jurisdiction over Wall St.

potential message: the GOP just raised taxes by $6 trillion potential message: the GOP is kidnapping and trafficking people for things they MIGHT say dem message: the GOP might be insider trading—a thing you associate nancy pelosi with—and we're sending them a nice letter asking them for evidence

BREAKING: The country of Norway just entered a bill to give transgender Americans asylum in the country of Norway… LGBTQ+ STRONG! 🌈✨

The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens. The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago. Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.

SCOTUS regularly reminds we really are dealing with monsters who will stop at nothing to get what they want. Monsters.

Justice Ketanji Brown-Jackson just wrote a perfect Epitaph for the Roberts Court.

Yep. Along with the Cubs.

I don’t think it ever occurs to her that she’s just casually defending crimes against humanity.

Did you not think he was going to attack other countries, target his perceived enemies, abuse civil liberties & minorities, tank our economy and destroy what was left of our dignity & democracy? He’s been waiting 78 years to do this it’s gonna destroy the USA unless we stop him.

This is a great point. For example, when I look back at the epochal changes of this past January, I would personally have voted not to confirm Marco Rubio

I have no respect for ANY athlete that visits this White House. You are unAmerican if you do so, as is anyone who supports or enables this administration. Let me repeat that. You actions are in *direct* opposition to the Declaration of Independence.

My law firm is currently litigating 50 voting and election cases in 21 states. I expect new cases will be filed this week. States with the most cases: AZ, GA, NC, NV, FL, LA, PA.

When this is over, no forgiveness for those involved. There will be trials. There will be consequences. 😡😡😡

Hands off in Chicago

My favorite part of #HandsOff at the MN Capitol was this band drowning out hate preachers behind them

Beautiful massive turn out today all over the country.

We've got the numbers. #HandsOff

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

In all the outrage about what the White House is doing, please pause for a moment - and even LOWER YOUR PHONE - to pray for the souls of these four brave patriots. Sons of Illinois, California, Guam, and Michigan. They died for their country.
