Tonight, Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band opened their Land of Hope & Dreams Tour. Bruce launched this run of shows with three statements about the situation in the United States, with comments preceding his songs Land of Hope and Dreams, House of a Thousand Guitars and My City of Ruins.

🍃💨 It's time for Congress to puff, puff, pass legislation to end the criminalization of cannabis and close the book on the failed War on Drugs once and for all.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

If it can happen to Rümeysa Öztürk, it can happen to anyone. Rümeysa must be released now.

What RFK Jr. said was reprehensible. He should be ashamed of himself and step down.

well i am sure this administration will take strong action to make sure food safety is a top priority going forwa… hold on i am getting an update

The US should not be hosting the Olympics.

one senator insisted on seeing his constituent one that’s all it took to apply pressure what the ever living fuck are the rest of y’all doing???

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

The 1721 "An Universal Etymological English Dictionary" defined ‘butter’ as “a Food well known.” To be fair, they weren’t wrong.

Thank you, Sen. Van Hollen, for standing up not just for Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his family but for every American who believes in due process. We can't stop speaking out until he is home and this administration is forced to stop its horrific practice of kidnapping people without charge or trial.

Here is where MAGA has gotten us to.

If you paid $1 In federal income taxes, you paid more than: Tesla in 2024 & 2022 AT&T in 2021 Nike in 2020 FedEx in 2020 Dish Network in 2020 Amazon in 2017-2018 Elon Musk in 2018 Jeff Bezos in 2007 & 2011 Carl Icahn in 2016-2017 Yes. It’s time to tax the rich.

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

Exactly how it's done.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Bring back Kilmar Abrego García... NOW. 🧵(1 of 6)

Hi 👋

Just wanted to send a quick thank-you for standing with us yesterday. Everything went smoothly, and our coalition members are safe. A little good trouble goes a long way.

Disappearing people without any due process is fascism — full stop. I’m sick to my stomach and we all should be.

No exemptions though for the things poor people buy: inexpensive shoes, clothes, bedding, tableware.

😂😂👍

Seven years today since we first introduced you to this absolute unit.

In more uplifting news, 1,000 people protested ICE’s abduction of a mother and children at the home of the agency’s acting head Tom Homan. Notably, the entire population of the town is just 1,450. www.syracuse.com/state/2025/0...

Hi. Books are incredibly important. Please let them be.

TRUMP. IS. INSANE.

"Is this what 2008 felt like?" No. 2008 was a crescendo of years of sub-prime mortgages laundered through faked bond ratings and derivatives trading by an army of savy, greedy people hiding what they'd done. This is one rapist felon who's killing the world in full view of everyone for fun.

Happy International Asexuality Day!!!🖤🩶🤍💜

60 Minutes found no criminal record for 75% of the Venezuelan migrants the U.S. sent to a mega-prison in El Salvador. https://cbsn.ws/4lC4Vp5

Where is our humanity?

New York Fucking City. A full mile of people filled to the brim. Fascism is going to lose.

Dog shows his friend how to get pass the fallen tree.. 😊

TRUMP DOES NOT GIVE A FLYING FUCK ABOUT EVERYDAY AMERICANS.

They are not pro-life. Stop using that phrase to describe them. They kill. Trump administration eviscerates maternal and child health programs www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

Donald Trump skipped the dignified transfer of four of our soldiers because he had to go golfing with the Saudis in the midst of a catastrophic stock market collapse he intentionally caused and you Yankee Doodle dipshits still think he gives a single flying fuck about this country?

Now we need a discharge petition in the House to get around Mike Johnson.

Yes, yes this is in fact what they did.

Absolutely disgusting.

Oh man, somebody get him out of there. He’s crazy.

The ocean is both scary and beautiful
