When you vote for the arsonist, don’t act surprised when he burns down your neighbor’s house.

Shall I be plain? I wish the bastards dead

Civics 101: presidents are not kings…

Jake Tapper's TV show ratings are tanking and his book isn't selling, proving that peddling irrelevant BS during a time of an actual national crisis isn't a winning formula.

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

That would be awful. Don’t share this.

BREAKING: ICE RAID reported at Buona Forchetta tonight about a mile up the road in San Diego. Smoke bombs were used to disperse the crowd. FUCK ICE. WTF?!

The Trump regime canceled Moderna’s contract to develop a bird flu vaccine, saying it “was not scientifically or ethically justifiable”. This is not just a RFK Jr anti-vax crusade. This entire regime does not care about human life. These fascists are content with mass death.

Could we be more stupid? Let. Her. Serve. 🇺🇸💪

“Mexico will pay for the wall” Mexico: “Hold my tequila.” “Canada will pay for my Golden Dome.” Canada: “Hold my maple syrup.”

Sorta like how the invention of vaults hurt the bank robbery business.

E. coli outbreak sickened more than 80 people, but details didn’t surface Food safety inspections are being scaled back and the public was not notified after an investigation into E. coli contamination.

lol

We can keep discussing these societal issues year after year, but nothing is likely to change. Instead, it’s up to you to take proactive steps to protect yourself and your family and live with the reassurance that you can protect your life if the threat arises—plain and simple.

Today is the day we honor those who died overseas stopping the same thing many of you are ignoring here at home--fascism.

Today, I was denied access to seeing my constituent, Mr. Kilmar Abrego Garcia. If there is nothing to hide, cut the crap. Let his lawyer and I check on him.

Take a few minutes for this one—because you might need FEMA in the near future, and you need to know what’s currently going on. Or not going on. Thank you, @repjasmine.bsky.social for telling it straight, sounding the alarm, and sharing how we can help.

They pretend that the USA was founded as a Christian nation. Then they pretend and insist they’re Christians. Then they govern like the motherfucking antichrist.

Breaking: My nephew has decided to retain his title as one of the world’s cutest (and most chill) babies. He won’t be taking any questions at this time. 😅

Honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. 🇺🇸 #SomberMemorialDay

-A living wage -Guaranteed healthcare -The right to join a union -The right to vote -The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family -The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence These are the foundations of real freedom.

It's Memorial Day. To honor the fallen military service members this year, the Up First newsletter asked readers to share stories of their loved ones.

We acknowledge that many are not comfortable calling out Israel, whether its due to guilt or sycophancy, the point isn’t to attack Israel for their identity but actions & supremacist ideology. Israel is committing war crimes, land theft, and genocide. It doesn’t matter why, only that it stops.

Not sure if democracy remains on the docket? My law firm is litigating 53 voting and election cases in 22 states. When we fight, we win.

This is completely false and not From Liz or me.

Speak Truth......💯🎯🔥

Two different autopsies have confirmed that it was the knee on the neck for 9 minutes that killed George Floyd. He was murdered; it is on video, and the facts are not disputed. SAY HIS NAME GEORGE FLOYD!

Today marks five years since George Floyd was killed by police. Our June 22, 2020 cover “Say Their Names,” by Kadir Nelson, illustrated how Floyd’s murder embodies the history of violence inflicted upon Black people in America. nyer.cm/UmfefJw

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics.  Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages. Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare... This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.

Defense Secretary Hegseth, once a Fox News personality, now barricades the Pentagon from the press. Leaks haunt him, so he locks doors and demands escorts. Transparency? A relic. The Pentagon Press Association calls it an assault on press freedom. #3E

My goal has been to make Illinois the best state to raise a family — that starts with kids having access to what they need so they can focus on learning and growing.   Illinois was among the first states to implement SUN Bucks, and this year is no exception.

Bazinga!
