Army vet and national park service mechanic James Jones is speaking up about actions this administration has been taking that will harm veterans and all of us. He's also on Instagram. I'll post that link in the comments below. Please like,follow,and repost. www.tiktok.com/@jajones4058...

A former Army special forces member and his wife, a former US Airforce captain, are expressing their concerns about what’s going on in this country right now. They don’t mince words. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjqJaXt8/

Exactly. Or maybe just reducing the absurd giveaways to them?

Absolutely no.

This. Clear from the beginning to anyone paying attention.

Democratic candidate Keishan Scott has won the special election for South Carolina's 50th State House District, defeating MAGA lunatic William Oden by over 41 points in the same district that VP Kamala Harris won by only 5 points. More of this please. 💙👏

There is more than sufficient evidence to open a federal hate crime case under 18 USC 249. This is precisely the type of crime the Shepard-Byrne ACT was passed to permit the feds to prosecute. Important to watch what DOJ does here. www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...

Since the 1940s, the engine driving U.S. economic and military competitiveness has been federal support of research universities. Now Trump is sabotaging a research and development pipeline that is the envy of the world. wapo.st/3FDsQEg

With this awful terror attack in Colorado, Congress needs to ask how many federal resources have been pulled from counterterrorism to deport Hispanics?

Where are local police. Can’t drive on public streets without license plates. They should be stopped and cited at least for that. Can’t take people into custody without warrants. They’re kidnapping people. Where are local DAs? Where is the CA AG? @agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov ?

ICE officials in Tucson allegedly posed as utility workers to try to make an arrest. Critical reporting from @emilybregel.bsky.social

Flood the line.

my takeaway from this feature is that in a functioning political system there would be televised congressional hearings over the fact that one of the most influential people in the white house is a total maniac www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

Why aren’t Dems on everything talking about the Joni Ernst “you can die” bill?

Telling working people who are fighting to save health care and food assistance for MILLIONS that everyone is going to die anyway is mind boggling. Congress should be working to expand essential services like Medicaid and SNAP, not gut them like the House’s budget would do.

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

Jacaranda season.

Cowardice has its price.

It’s striking how often hate toward Jewish Americans is met with silence. In a country that prides itself on justice and free speech, too many look away. Standing up against antisemitism shouldn’t be political—it should be moral. Indifference only fuels it.

Maybe Tapper can get on it and write a book to come out in 2030.

In 2021 and 2022, Trump loyalists Ken Cuccinelli and Russell Vought privately urged Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to proclaim their states were being invaded. Ducey never acted on the invasion theory. Abbott was more receptive. By @mtredden.bsky.social‬

I haven't seen any other members of Congress taking about ICE (and whoever else is helping ICE) wearing masks and removing badges to hide their identity. Call your Rep &. Senators! Ask them to talk about why ICE / DHS are hiding their identities! 🚨(202) 224-3121

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

www.npr.org/2025/05/31/n... Laura Piani’s first feature, Jane Austen Wrecked My Life, was soooo good.

I’m sorry to be that person but please please please buy my book or come to my reading or request at your local library. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

We're all living in the danger zone. What the hell is going on and why!

Field Team 6 runs one of the best on-the-ground voter registration operations around. Feel better: just spend two hours with them every now and then. They’ll train you. They have a great organization www.fieldteam6.org

First ten seconds: What do you mean she “made it worse” — at least she’s apologizing, By the end: Oh no. Oh my goodness. Wtf.

“The destruction that Musk set in motion remains running in the background as an ambient menace to our safety and livelihoods. Musk’s legacy is still being written, and his culpability is still accumulating.” newrepublic.com/article/1959...

Every last one of them.

Hiding their faces, hiding their names by using pens to hold their pocket flaps up, hiding their names. ICE agents have “consciousness of guilt,” know they are committing crimes. They need to be unmasked, named, and charged #UnmaskICE

trump's department of homeland security has thus far arrested: a judge a democratic mayor a democratic congresswoman now handcuffing a democratic congressional staffer gothamist.com/news/homelan...

Time to replace the Death Maiden.

And a ghoul.
