So are we just teaching our kids they have to obey anyone with a mask and an unmarked car and an oddly-fitting vest and zip ties now and go with them? Is this where we’re at?

We don’t need to back off the American Gestapo and we don’t need to respect its agents. People exercising state violence are not entitled to anonymity. Nor are the people directing the state violence.

Trump’s big ugly bill rips health care away from millions of people & ends programs that help people pay for groceries. The money saved will be handed over to the richest men in the world. Trump’s bill rubs salt in the wounds of every struggling family in America.

Remember when Republicans were losing their minds about leaving Afghans who worked with US troops to be killed by the Taliban? Well, Trump has revoked their asylum and is planning to send them back to be murdered.

Democrats should be doing two things right now: 1) Demanding the release of all the Epstein files, and calling for hearings 2) Calling for canceling all SpaceX contracts

The fact that Karine Jean-Pierre would leave the Democratic Party during a constitutional crisis is hard to comprehend. The fact that Karine Jean-Pierre would leave the Democratic Party during a constitutional crisis and sell a book about it is disgusting.

If you had important information for voters, and kept it to yourself to sell books after it was too late, you’re not a hero. You’re an asshole.

Chris Murphy: "We can't be preparing for the 2026 election. It might not come. All of our focus right now has to be on protecting the democracy, about stopping the corruption."

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil. It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men

It wouldn’t be hard to protect Medicaid and funding to rural hospitals and still reduce our nation’s ballooning debt and deficit. The Rs would just have to make the wealthy and corporations pay slightly more in taxes. (PS Rs are never serious about the debt and deficit when they are in power).

1. Florida banned cities from lighting up bridges rainbow colors for Pride. So the people of Jacksonville did it themselves using flashlights and gels. They opened the drawbridge to block them. So they marched to a different bridge. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

This statement from Jonathan Joss's husband is heart breaking. No, headline writers, he wasn't "killed in an argument with a neighbor." He was deliberately murdered for being gay right after his dog was decapitated. Bet the murderer calls himself a "Christian." THIS is why Pride is important.

They promised to root out waste and abuse and found none, and in the process wasted money and abused innocent people. They promised to deport 20 million people but are not getting anywhere near that, so they are desperately arresting anyone they can get their hands on whilst wearing face masks.

"If what you're doing is legitimate and lawful, why do you need to cover your face?”

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.

I can’t believe the media covered up the fact that a clear mental incompetent was running the government while out of his mind on drugs, despite it being widely known in DC circles, to preserve their access to the White House. There should be huge recriminations for this.

What infuriates me so much about this new operation is that it is literally punishing people for following the rules and showing up to their court hearings. It is so toxic to the basic concept of following the rules. It is an operation designed by people who hate the concept of the rule of law.

I don’t know how many times we have to say this, but the U.S. government is not a business and shouldn’t be run like one. It’s a service—for the people.

Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

ICE agents making arrests while masked— no warrants. This is about basic civil rights. What are our protections? Who’s accountable? Congress must act. Hold hearings—sanctioned or not. ☎️ Call your Senators and Representatives NOW: (202) 224-3121 @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov
