He’s building himself a “Garden of Heroes” with our money. Of course, King Trump will have “heroic” portrayals of himself scattered amongst those of Arnold Palmer, Wm. McKinley and OJ Simpson (probably). But who else?

Big ups to all Schumer’s constituents who made calls and demonstrated today demanding this.

A government ban on Hungary’s Pride parade backfired Saturday as over 100,000 people marched through Budapest, far more than usual PM Viktor Orban warned people to stay away, threatening “clear legal consequences.” But the warnings only turned a modest event into a mass rally against his government

If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029: - $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion - $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million - $8 billion for hiring/retention - Billions more.

BREAKING: 1 in 4 nursing homes say they will be forced to close if Republicans pass Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill. No grandma should be kicked out of her nursing home so that Mark Zuckerberg can buy another Hawaiian island.

On a bright day in June. #Avelo is going to know that we are still here to protest their deportations using our damn tax payer dollars. #ImmigrantsAreWelcome @indivisiblealbany.org @troyindivisible.bsky.social @stopavelo.bsky.social @jmlicht1348.bsky.social @mattbrockbank.bsky.social

Every major health system in Louisiana is warning Speaker Mike Johnson and the rest of the state’s congressional delegation that the Senate GOP’s planned Medicaid cuts “would be historic in their devastation.”

See you soon!

Shabbat Shalom to everyone who recognizes that the safety, freedom & thriving of Jews and Muslims are bound up together — in Israel & Palestine, across the five boroughs, and in many other beloved places.

We were just suspended without warning from threads and Instagram. We have no idea why. If any of y’all are on those apps and want to let them know to fix that we would be appreciative.

Stripping birthright citizenship from people born in this country goes against rights guaranteed in the Constitution. We must stand against unconstitutional actions and stand up for the fundamental rights granted to people in the United States of America.

The Supreme Court just severely limited the federal courts’ ability to fight the Trump regime, taking away their authority to issue universal injunctions that block illegal policies nationwide. This is an assault on the rule of law and proof all three branches of government are part of this regime.

Under this morning’s SCOTUS decision, “babies born on the same day could be citizens in one state, but stateless in the other. That would destabilize families, overwhelm local governments, and invite a flood of costly legal battles.”

🚨Saturday June 28🚨 Join us outside Albany Int’l Airport to keep the pressure on Avelo Airlines, the notorious ICE collaborator who puts profits over humanity

This is remarkable. New Quinnipiac poll finds support for path to legalization for most undocumented immigrants has risen to 64%. Only 31% want most of them deported. That's a 14 point net swing for legalization since Trump took office. On immigration generally, he's at 41-57!

An Albany-based New York appeals court today disbarred attorney Kenneth Chesebro for his role in efforts to overturn the 2020 Presidential election

To mark the 3-year anniversary of the Dobbs decision, I published a guide on all the ways doctors, nonprofits, pilots, and ordinary people are helping people from banned states access reproductive healthcare. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

A thrilling night for Queens and for NYC. We not only sent Cuomo back to the suburbs, we elected one of our own: a progressive, a Queens rep, and someone who actually lives in and loves this city.

Unofficial results in Albany County, all precincts reporting:

If you're a member of the Democratic gerontocracy, the chances of you catching a primary challenger just went up 1000%.

Screw Avelo airlines, #albany let's go protest them and spread awareness on why this airline is a sin against humanity itself www.mobilize.us/mobilize/eve... #boycottavelo @indivisiblealbany.org

Polls have closed in the opening act of defining the future of the Democratic Party

This man has been nominated by Trump to serve as a federal appeals court judge.

Just one thing Mr. President: was that not apparent to you three days ago when you decided to embroil our country in their dispute?

what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily — and deliberately — all over Los Angeles for 18 days.

Join us on Saturday, June 28 at 11:30 am for the next installment of our campaign against Avelo Airlines and its corporate complicity with cruel deportation agenda of Stephen Miller and ICE

I'm attending Upper Hudson Planned Parenthood (UHPP)'s event, “Overturn of Roe: 3 Years Later” Stand up for women's right, my body my damn choice www.mobilize.us/upperhudsonp... @ppactes.bsky.social @indivisiblealbany.org @troyindivisible.bsky.social

This is good news, but the MAGA Murder Budget remains an abomination.

ICYMI: Republicans are trying to pass a bill to kick 16 million Americans off their health care and cut food assistance by $300 billion, while adding trillions to the deficit. Why? All to give a massive tax break to the wealthiest billionaires and corporations.

“We are accustomed to Trump flouting and subverting the law, but perhaps less observed are the ways in which his administration seems determined to shut down local sovereignty,” @jesspish.bsky.social writes. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” could close your local hospital. Spread the word. Call your senator.

We can hardly believe that it’s been three years since Roe v Wade was overturned, stripping women of their fundamental bodily autonomy. Join our friends at Upper Hudson Planned Parenthood at a rally outside their Central Avenue offices on Wednesday, June 25 at 5:00 to commemorate the occasion.

“They’re not going to call the police to defend them, they’re going to call us.” The incredible story of community members organizing effectively against ICE. lataco.com/union-del-ba... By @theglutster.bsky.social cc: @uniondelbarrio.bsky.social

When Trump says he wants to Make America Great Again, this is what he has in mind.

This really isn’t a hard message. Obama neutralized the Iran nuclear program through the hard work of diplomacy, but Trump tore up the deal in his first term out of spite and chose war instead.

Trump’s unlawful and unjustified actions against Iran are just the latest manifestation of his tyranny. American troops overseas are now more vulnerable, and the homeland is less safe because of his authoritarian strongman tactics.
