So I see the Trump administration is now offering $1,000 and a free plane ticket to any immigrant who self deports. How are the MAGA bunch going to reconcile this when they are so against “handouts” to immigrants? It’s all about the cruelty to all of them.

So, using the Republican’s logic on erasing student debt, I don’t think women who have children should receive $5,000 of my tax money for it. I gave birth to 3 kids and had to pay for them without government help. Why should they be rewarded if I wasn’t? See how dumb that sounds?

BREAKING: The constitutional crisis has arrived. We knew it was coming, just not when.

I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia. I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Thank you Corey Booker, AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Chris Murphy, and Bernie Sanders for speaking out and realizing we cannot stay quiet while our country is being dismantled. You inspire me.

Thank you Senator @corybooker.com! That’s the post…

I’ve never been more disappointed in my party. I am ashamed of how the democrats are going about things like it’s business as usual. Our country is shutting down as it is. At least we would’ve had more of a say had our “leaders” held firm.

Gabe and Mjolnir need a new home, can you help? Rowan, their human who has sadly passed, wished for them to remain together. Will help get them relocated to anywhere within the United States; please read on for more details! đź§µ Signal boosts & sharing are appreciated đź’™

That time Prince sang “Raspberry Sorbet” on Muppets Tonight. The show debuted 29 years ago today.

According to a memo leaked to the LA Times, ICE will be starting their “knock and talk” practices in the LA area on Feb 23rd. #KnowYourRights

This is fascism.

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: I’ll say this again: download all your SF-50s, performance evals, and your eOPF. Now. Print hard copies. And make sure you file an informal grievance with your supervisor within 15 days of any adverse action. Here is a template: www.muellershewrote.com/p/informal-g...

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

People on X are calling for AOC's arrest for posting this.... so I am posting it everywhere!

BREAKING: House Republicans have released their budget resolution. They are aiming to cut Medicaid by at least $880 billion, and cut SNAP by at least 20%.

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

Don't shop February 28th

This is going to be EPIC: All your favorite Democratic creators (and a few huge surprise guests) are coming together for a MASSIVE zoom Tuesday. This is going to be one of the most important conversations of the Trump presidency. Will you repost and join us? đź§µ

Elon Musk would absolutely hate it if we all copied this image and posted it widely, so let's not do that:

Thank you Judge Alikahn. Hopefully this temporary stay on the absolutely cruel executive order becomes permanent. So many families will be affected if it is able to continue.

DELETE IT and pass it on !!

Happy final weekend of decency, empathy, and sanity in the White House. Thank you President Biden and Vice President Harris for your leadership. It will be missed.

My sweet girl ❤️

As someone who works in Medicaid Outreach in a public school system, the nominations of both Dr. Oz and Linda McMahon are appalling. The amount of vulnerable children that could lose services they need without proper funding breaks my heart.

I follow back accounts that retweet/ repost first. How about you?

As someone who works in a public school system, I keep coming back to Trump’s words about teaching our children to love their country. The only people I’ve heard teaching our children to hate our country and speaking poorly about it are Trump and his cronies…I hope our school system survives this.
