FACTS from Tim Walz: "Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill” is nothing more than a big, beautiful pile of bullshit." #TrumpsBillWillKill

Oralè Resisters Happy Pride: I cried the whole time Dykes on Bikes led our Pride Parade Sunday, in high school I was saved by a black lesbian, Rene, I got punched called FAG every day, until I met her. She dare them to hit me! Thank you Rene. Now I’m crying again. She Se Puede

Oralè Resisters Are you sitting down? Can you believe being kidnapped twice in a child’s lifetime? Dyland was kidnapped by Venezuelan Cartels And was granted asylum! ICE kidnapped him today! #NoDyland4ICE #USDemocracy #NoKids4ICE

The CBO just confirmed it: the GOP’s “tax bill” will trigger automatic cuts — $500B from Medicare, $800B from Medicaid, $279B from SNAP — all because of PAYGO. These aren’t optional. They’re mandatory. Call Congress and spread the word. #ProtectMedicare #ProtectSNAP #GOPDeathBill #StopTheCuts

Oralè Resisters NYC Student Dyland Cartel Kidnapped Asylum student Dyland: body snatched by ICE! #SaveDyland #NoKids4ICE #USDemocracy

The Portland, Maine June 14 no Kings Day action is a critical event. Senator Collins is 1 of 3 top targets on the budget vote. Instead of organizing people are worrying about fundraising. Can you help out @indivisiblepwm.bsky.social & pitch in a few bucks? secure.actblue.com/donate/indiv...

There's nothing holy about writing discrimination into the law.

Lately I've seen many references to the 3.5% rule. A few years ago I pulled together this Q&A on potential uses and misuses of this statistic. www.hks.harvard.edu/sites/defaul...

A rogue president with a loyal DOJ isn’t unstoppable, unless we act like peasants. Courts can stop him. States can sue him. Whistleblowers can expose him. But it takes all of us, loud, sharp, fed up. Power bends to pressure. So push. Hard. Clean House with your votes, or get steamrolled. Our call.

Republicans are trying to rush passage of the biggest tax breaks to billionaires in US history - They’re working in the middle of the night to try to dodge media coverage - but we’re here to make sure they don’t get away with it.

Not on our watch! We’re at the U.S Capitol at 1:42am because Republicans called a vote to cut Medicaid in order to give big tax breaks to billionaires in the middle of the night, thinking we won’t notice. Well, we notice & and we will not give up! Americans Need Medicaid #AmericansNeedMedicaid

For all you saying, the Dems aren’t doing the work, you realize the only reason we even know about their being a markup right now in the rules committee is because the Dems did the work. The only reason there are influencers at the capital right now is because the Dems did the work. 1/2

Oralè Resisters That’s a 68

We'll survive - IF We the People DO THE WORK. #50501

Really smart, Elon - call it Model Why...

Remember how much people flooded representatives phone lines before the CR? That’s what needs to be happening right now your stories about Medicaid about SNAP about Planned Parenthood about pretty much anything, but I don’t hear anyone except me calling for that and that’s why it is possible. 1/2

With the rest of them. In CECOT #ImpeachRemoveConvictSentence

What's up indeed:

Oralè Resisters You know the assignment! Resist all lies! #Resist #USDemocracy
