OMG this is amazing - this Dr. is running to unseat Lindsey Graham and her campaign ad is great! 🔥 youtu.be/J8wMNLaSNW4?...

"Why attack universities? Why attack journalism? Because ignorance works for power ... With that done, power can rewrite history with grotesque, false narratives. They can make criminals heroes and heroes criminals." trib.al/oyBvPkF

The Tate brothers have been charged with over 20 offenses in the UK. Andrew and Tristan Tate are facing rape, controlling prostitution for gain, actual body harm, and other charges. Lock them up! 🍿

THANK YOU!!!

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.

In his confirmation hearing, the Social Security head said he’d keep enough staff to ensure Americans would get their Social Security checks and get them on time. Just weeks into the job, he’s reportedly broken that promise. I said I’d hold him to it, and that’s what I’m doing.

Sen. Booker introduces bill to transfer Marshals Service That is good bill to pass, Senator Booker. The Marshall Service should have been under the court all along. It did not matter before when we have presidents who obeys the US Constitution and laws

Abortion bans are a violation of the separation of church and state. So are book bans. So are anti-LGBT laws. So are school vouchers. Notice a pattern?

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear: The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here. Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead. This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

U.S. intel agencies are building a centralized portal to buy Americans’ personal data—no warrant needed. Location, browsing, even politics. Congress failed to stop it. Privacy is being sold off in bulk, and civil liberties are on the line. #PrivacyRights theintercept.com/2025/05/22/i...

Writing a post on how silly the reporting on Trump's attack on Harvard is. But now can't stop thinking of two things. 1) WHAT IF Trump really did give $3B to trade schools? What are trade schools if you've gutted the technology that drives the value of that added education?

“The government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion.” — Treaty of Tripoli, signed by the United States in 1797.

What did the House GOP do for the American people this week? They proudly passed a bill to kick millions off their health care, slash the household income of people working paycheck to paycheck, and put school meals at risk for millions of kids. But billionaires? They’re getting more tax cuts.

MUST WATCH: They didn’t just burn Tulsa — they burned proof. Black wealth. Black futures. Gone. And now they’re banning books so you never learn it happened. 📚 ERASED tells the truth they’re scared of. Read it before they erase that too: stan.store/gxldsociety/...

The fight for democracy is the fight of our generation. It may not be the battle we wanted, but it is the one we face. The state of our democracy and the future of our country depends on our willingness to take risks, ignore the naysayers, weather setbacks and fight fiercely for democracy.

Fernández: He refused to read the bill he wrote. They are so ashamed of it, they couldn’t even read it aloud—because they know it’s shameful to give tax breaks to tanning beds and take away hospital beds. Who likes tanning beds? There’s a certain personality who has a very orange hue about him.

LISTEN as GOP Sen. Johnson admits the GOP tax scam will increase the deficit by $4 trillion with the Big Beautiful Bill, and that Medicaid will be cut: "Now what are you going to cut? Medicaid, absolutely" #StopTheBillionaireBailout

A Federal judge has ordered the return of an airplane carrying deported migrants to South Sudan. The Judge says if they fail to comply, he will jail all officials and the pilot, for Contempt of Court. 👍 As for officials, pilots, and flight crew, we're past the point of "I'm just doing my job."
