First they came for the immigrants, and I spoke out, because I’ve read the damn poem before and I know how it ends.

Trump’s plan to reverse Obama’s 2015 decision to name Alaska’s tallest peak Denali has drawn backlash. The name, meaning “The High One,” honors the Koyukon Athabascan people. Why undo this?

Last night, Democrats did the responsible thing and ensured that our government would remain open, our workers would receive pay during Christmas, and disaster relief aid would be funded. Virginians are better off today thanks to Democratic leadership in D.C.

They’ve earned it! And sadly, it’s going to end up hurting their voters, who don’t have a clue what they voted for.

Musk CANNOT be Speaker of the House and third in line to the presidency. He is insanely dangerous to the world and our country. Rand Paul is playing with fire even if he’s joking. I’m sure holocaust survivors would like a word. WTF

do I have this right? the GOP blew up a budget deal because President Musk demanded it, and then they clownfucked a second bill into failure, because they're incompetent imbeciles? and this is somehow the Democrats' fault? nice try, morons, but we're not idiots over here

The biggest divide in America today is not between “right” and “left,” or between Republicans and Democrats. It’s between democracy and oligarchy. The old labels — “right” and “left” — prevent most people from noticing they’re being shafted. Know the truth.

Tonight, I am seething with a heat of 500 suns at CNN for their month long DAILY coverage of Biden’s age while completely ignoring Trump is 78 years old. 1) Why the fuck is CNN on Bluesky? 2) Why do they have so many followers? Please repost and follow us so we can leave them in the dust!

Jeffries: In our nation's history, 25% of our nation's debt was accumulated during the four years of the former president, 25%. How dare you lecture America about fiscal responsibility ever.

They are going full oligarchy to the sound of silent consent. When fascism takes over, it is not with a bang but a gradual normalization of corruption, nepotism, and organized crime. They'll slow boil democracy until nothing is left. The time to act is now, the time to protest is overdue.

I don't agree on everything Sanders says, but I agree with him here Oligarchs are our common adversary "Strangely enough, the term 'oligarchy' is very rarely used to describe what's happening in the United States or in fact, what's happening around the world." www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

IT'S STARTED. ABC News announced it's not only settled a civil lawsuit with Donald Trump for $15 million - THEY'VE ISSUED A WRITTEN APOLOGY to him. In announcing the settlement to Trump, ABC has declared to us all that it is compromised. It is no longer legitimate. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

Jennings: It was out of the ordinary for the newspaper to print private correspondence between a mother and a son. It was pretty outrageous McGowan: It was pretty outrageous when they put Hunter Biden's junk on congressional billboards

I am such a believer in this. Down-ballot is the way. It’s also how we build a sustainable future of good leaders and infrastructure to elect and support them, as well as the movements they represent. We don’t just need strong candidates. We need strong organizers, managers, CoS, grassroots, etc.

Meanwhile, on Minnesota's Iron Range where Democrats rarely ever lost, Republicans now dominate. And women leaders are rare. But...this organizational meeting will be held at a bar that once launched more than a few Democrats to power, including the time one of the owners ran for U.S. Senate.

Donald Trump is selling guitars, sneakers, NFTs, hats, shirts, Christmas ornaments, blankets, flasks, pickleball paddles, beach balls, grill tools, backpacks, earbuds, and ice cube trays. In other news, the Emoluments Clause is buried on the Bedminster back nine right next to Ivana.

Trump just nominated Brendan Carr to be in charge of the FCC. Brendan Carr wrote the FCC chapter in Project 2025. Project 2025 was always Trump’s plan. We were warned.

AOC: The maps for the National Flood Insurance Program and what is considered a flood zone or not are tied to flood maps from before the government acknowledged that climate change is real. So we are allocating flood insurance from before these areas became flood zones that are now flood zones

Lots of people are about to be really mad that price of eggs goes up but they can’t get a 2nd job because they can’t afford childcare and when they do finally get the eggs they get E Coli because there’s no FDA but can’t go to the doctor because they got kicked off their health plan. #FAFO
