When you say the quiet part out loud >>>>

Trump told West Point cadets at their graduation that he wouldn't be able to shake their hands, a tradition among US presidents, because he had urgent matters to deal with on China and Russia. This was him "dealing" with China and Russia moments later. He went golfing.

‘They say, We leave you our deaths. Give them their meaning.’ —Archibald MacLeish Remembering the fallen this Memorial Day, we can consider our own duty to strive so that our lives and our country are worthy of the price they paid.

This Memorial Day, we honor those who gave everything in service to this country. As we pause to reflect, let’s remember: the best way to honor the fallen is to stand up for the living—by ensuring our veterans & their families get the care, respect, & resources they need to thrive.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

Broligarchs got Trillion dollar tax cuts, babies get starved and old folks lose their health insurance because of this tax bill. Trump MAGA Republicans fought for it. Democrats fought against it to the end. The fight now moves to the Senate.

It's awesome... Thank you...

Billionaire tax cuts are a policy choice. Cutting healthcare for millions is a policy choice. Cutting food assistance for children is a policy choice. Taking from the poor and giving to the rich is a policy choice. Make no mistake: Trump and the GOP are choosing to do this.

In our entire history only one President got our credit downgraded in both his terms AND got us added to the Human Rights Watch List.

On #ArmedForcesDay, I recognize the strength, sacrifice, and service of the brave men and women in uniform. Y’all don’t just serve—you lead, protect, and persevere. Your sacrifice doesn’t go unnoticed.

When will voters ever learn that the GOP is not the fiscally responsible party?

BREAKING: Moody’s has DOWNGRADED the United States’ credit rating from Aaa to Aa1 — the first-ever U.S. credit downgrade in the agency’s history. “We do not believe that material multi-year reductions in mandatory spending and deficits will result from current fiscal proposals under consideration.”

SPRINGSTEEN, on tour in the UK: “.. "In my home, the America I love, the America I’ve written about, that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous administration." @variety.com variety.com/2025/music/n...

Let’s clear something up: SNAP stands for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program — the LARGEST federal program to fight hunger in the country! It blows my mind that the party that touts its “Christian values” is the same party that is SET on taking food from the hungry.

Powerful.

Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution? How fast would the articles of impeachment be drawn ? 20 minutes at the most

Spoke with a small business owner yesterday who told me all his suppliers are raising prices out of fear and/or greed even if they aren’t directly paying tariffs. He called it “scareflation”

Sounds like a good kid, someone get them a Sex Pistols album

Having now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.

Zero! 😳

The Trump administration is rushing to bring the first group of white South Africans classified as refugees to the U.S. early next week. Meanwhile, they’re trying to deport other refugees already here. Make it make sense. Oh wait, Elon’s homeland. Got it.

Sick of corporate media downplaying the chaos, acting like any of this is normal? Listen to the MeidasTouch Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or anywhere else you get podcasts.

DOGE was never about "efficiency."

In Worcester, Massachusetts, the Trump regime's ICE troops violently attacked a mother and her two children – including a newborn baby. Brave neighbours attempted to intervene to protect the family from being kidnapped by the regime troops and collaborator police forces. #3E #endimpunity

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America: 1. Break up corporate monopolies 2. Continue building union power 3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

A 98 year old World War 2 veteran, returned to his tank to destroy one last Nazi car. He has a message for Elon Musk, Tesla, Putin, Trump and the international regressive movement. We crushed fascism before, and we'll crush it again, so let's go shall we? #3E #teslatakedown

A reminder: Both sheriffs and local police have the right to refuse ICE detainers. These requests are voluntary and not legally enforceable under federal law. Across the country, many sheriffs and police departments choose not to cooperate and that choice is fully within their legal rights.

Ninety-one. Sixty-eight. Fifty.

You are running out of time.

Leaving this here without comment

It’s nuts to feel that buying and reading and talking about books is an act of resistance, but here we are [again]. 📚

I love you my Canadian brothers and sisters. Thank you for showing up. You give us decent Americans hope.

Breaking my rule of not posting cat videos

The Justice Department quietly invoked the Alien Enemies Act last month, granting Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents the power to conduct warrantless searches of people’s homes based solely on suspicion that they are “alien enemies.”

We have now arrived at the "arresting judges" level of fascism.

Our health care system is broken. We need to end the disgrace of being the only major country not to guarantee health care for all as a human right. We must pass Medicare for All — legislation that I will be introducing next week.

This is absolutely brutal

They make it sound like there are millions of dead people getting Social Security checks. But it's just not true.

I want politics to be about a better everyday life. Here's what that can look like:

If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.

I'm no good with patterns. Can someone help me out here?

The Meidas Mighty showed up today 👏

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.

The turnout in small towns across the country has been incredible drawing crowds of thousands. We’re already seeing over one million in attendance nationwide, and events are still underway. Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio all had especially surprising showings.

Senator Van Hollen is a hero.
