instead of doing critical coverage, Hegseth urges reporters to "Wave an American flag. Be proud of what we accomplished."

10 years ago today SCOTUS gave same sex couples the legal right to marry & the country did not collapse. 😜 70% of Americans now support same-sex marriage. However 32 states still have dormant bans that could be reactivated if Obergefell is overturned. The fight continues. #HappyPride 🏳️‍🌈

NIGHTS OF BLUE SKIES (sound up) DAY 24 JUNE 2025 THESE TUMULTUOUS TIMES Trump made the biggest ASS out of himself Save this clip DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT Donnie, you're the f*cking idiot and the whole world is laughing Trump arrives in the Netherlands to streets full of people booing

“Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president.” — Theodore Roosevelt

They are treating people worse than mere numbers, not even bothering to track them once they’re in the system. Unacceptable.

Donald Trump does NOT want you to share this footage of his pathetically tiny birthday parade crowd.

We the people have spoken. Congress must do their job and represent the will of the nation. Say NO to “King” Donakd!

Why didn't he just say Don't Blame Me When I'm the one who destabilized the middle east and caused the closure of the Strait of Hormuz

I hate when I go to bed early on a Saturday night and wake up Sunday morning only to discover we’ve gone to war in the Middle East without the consent of Congress. 😡

To friends with loved ones in the Armed Forces, to our brave servicemen and servicewomen, and to our veterans who are feeling the weight of this moment—I see you. Holding you in my heart, praying for your safety, and sending every bit of strength, protection, and courage your way 🙏🏼💙

Not anyone in the majority

The best view of anything is from the seat of a bicycle

It’s always 2 weeks away

OK i’ve seen almost no media outlet pick up on the fact the Supreme Court ruling endorsed conversion therapy and opens a portal to the normalization of conversion therapy nationally so here’s a thread explaining how they did so, and why you should care (1/x)

What's in the Trump/GOP big, beautiful bill? -Tax cuts skewed to the rich -Medicaid & SNAP cuts -Ends IRS Direct File -New powers for Trump over the courts -Blocks state/local regulation against AI, including rent-gouging software like RealPage It's a big, ugly nightmare.

The guy who golfs more than once every 5 days on his private golf course, costing taxpayers millions, wants you to have fewer days off.

You lazy fucks aren’t working enough.

Ask your doctor what treatment the supreme court decided is right for you.

KAINE: When you called the Gregg family to tell them that their dad's name was no longer gonna be on the base, what was their reaction? HEGSETH: The Army notified them K: You didn't call any of the families. I've spoken with them. They were called by the press. That's how they learned about this

I could support them

Today is a real bad day for trans folks. Lots of us are already struggling under the constant mental and emotional strain of being the target of international hate campaigns for years now, and it ain't getting easier Support us, now more than ever. Emotionally, financially, politically. We need it

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

Stand up and speak up. Stand with us and keep on fighting. Thank Join us! Follow all and repost

Husky fans, there’s no point in arguing to include games that were played before you were born. 😂

Political violence must always be condemned.

#ResistanceEarth #BlueEarth It's sometimes difficult to comprehend the extent of Trump's assault on science in general and climate change mitigation in particular. This article sums up the key points, and how it's isolating the U.S. and putting us at extreme risk. www.eenews.net/articles/how...

"If you’re among the vast sea of Americans who remain enthusiastically grateful for vaccines, the time for pushing back against Kennedy isn’t later, when he’ll likely be ratcheting up his program to 'reevaluate' longstanding pediatric vaccines."

Great #NoKings protest in Sandy, OR. Double the turnout of the last one. Also met this cool dog!

This is not good.... www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Let’s be clear: These agitators aren’t misguided allies. They’re not here for immigrants, they’re not here for justice. They’re here to sow chaos. Every brick they throw, every fire they set, hands trump & his followers more fuel. They’re intentional, coordinated & calculated. #Peace

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) wants to make "The One Big Beautiful Bill Act" (OBBBA) about law & order vs rioters He's admitting the escalation & military in LA is about distraction Please - keep calling & emailing your Senators every single day! www.alternet.org/gop-senator-...

Truth-tellers, not rioters. Protect these two men at all costs. “You feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history.” “John Lewis said make good trouble… that means make trouble on behalf of democracy.”

Scott Detrow? Weigh in ?

Bully backs down after called on being a bully.

MSNBC: Does everyone who has been arrested by ICE agents have a criminal record? TOM HOMAN: Absolutely not.

True story bro.
