If the media still functioned independently, headlines would look something like this…

@chrislhayes.bsky.social: The overwhelming majority of protesters in Los Angeles have been peaceful. But you would not know that from watching Fox News.

What a rotten reality to have a White House occupant who hates so many Americans and hates everything our democratic nation stands for.

He’s telling soldiers who swore to protect our freedom how he’s going to use them to stop us from exercising the freedom they’re protecting…

🚨 ICE has a mandate to deport 3,000 people per DAY. And they’re using an APP with HEAT MAPS to round people up. Please watch and share!!

Commentary: ICE arrested a California union leader. Does Trump understand what that means?

What the actual fuck? "A federal appeals court has temporarily restored Trump's ability to impose emergency tariffs after a lower court ruled he did not have the authority."

Radical Liberal Judges

Millions of Americans right now are celebrating taking health care away from millions of other Americans. We have gone very far wrong as a country.

It’s a fair question…🧐🤨🤔

40% of Trump's entire net worth today is due to these two crypto coins that he just launched months ago. He is trading US policy in order to get paid. Tell me again how we just let the classified documents case slip … no, don’t.

Too little Too late he got away with more destruction than anyone should $4.8M is a pittance compared to the $ he’s grifting as president — a $400M plane + 1B retrofit, crypto profits, millions from selling access, and so much more as he creates kingship. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/05/22/t...

“Take a breath man, it’s not that serious.” Unbelievable statement an ICE agent told a man who collapsed after being handcuffed following his immigration hearing. The overzealous agents had the wrong man & would have kidnapped him had his attorney not insisted in reviewing the arrest warrant.

*Bondi sold between $1-5 million in Trump Media shares the same day Trump announced his tariff plans, tanking the stock market www.propublica.org/article/pam-...

The mRNA vaccines saved millions of lives during the pandemic and offer opportunities to create other lifesaving vaccines. The NIH grants to one of its originators, a Nobel laureate, have been canceled by the Kennedy/Trump HHS department. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/08/u...

www.the-downballot.com/p/democrats-... Good Morning !! This should give you all HOPE See what can be done They said she was unbeatable But DEMOCRAT John Ewing Jr just won in OMAHA !! Mayor Jean Stohert, (R) served 12 years as mayor. WTG, DEMOCRATS This should fire you up #MomSky

www.politico.com/news/2025/05... #MomSky Seriously Chief Justice says Rule of Law endangered You wanna look in the mirror and KNOW the reason why? Ya wanna talk to Alito and Thomas? Wait till you read this ⬇️

73% of mothers with kids under 18 are in the workforce. More than flowers or brunch, working moms need: -Paid family leave -Equal pay -Universal childcare (But get your mom flowers, too)

Oh sure, Don, a $400M jet from Qatar is just a “gift”? If Obama did this, Congress would fainted screaming treason. You didn’t score savings, you took a flying palace from a regime your biz has ties to. Now you wanna park it at your library? That’s not transparency, it’s transparently corruption.

Pope Leo XIV used his first Sunday address to the faithful to call for peace. “Never again war,” he said to a roar from the crowd in St. Peter’s Square.

'50 times worse!' Economist sounds alarm over Trump 2.0 as 'everything we buy is at risk' https://twp.ai/4inG8o

Convicted Felon Donald Trump is trying to kill us and make us go broke along the way. Open your eyes, Trump voters. He doesn’t GAF about you, your pocketbook, or the environment. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue www.theverge.com/news/662847/...

YES!!! This is the way to shared prosperity. When working people see eachother as allies instead of adversaries, we ALL win! Fighting over the crumbs left by the feasting 1% makes no sense whatsoever.

Sending migrants to war-torn Libya on a U.S. military flight is not just reckless - it’s a brutal betrayal of human rights and basic decency. This administration’s cruelty knows no bounds. #MomSky

This made me cry. This 12 year old describes what he and other students are experiencing, the destruction of public education, the denial of their futures basically. Such a well spoken young man. What are we doing to our children? 😩

Elon Musk laughingly fired thousands of air traffic controllers and other FAA professionals. Now Musk’s firings are having very real and very dangerous effects on aviation safety. Newark airport is considered unsafe due to Elon’s massive firings. This is a major disaster in the making. #ProudBlue

Trump Just Did the Most Corrupt Thing Any President Has Ever Done newrepublic.com/post/194420/... via @newrepublic.com

President Donald Trump targeted the financial backbone of the Democratic Party in a memo Thursday as part of a major escalation in his ongoing authoritarian effort to use the government to hamstring his political opponents, the White House said. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Seriously, why is RFK Jr worried about dyes in food when his department is cutting safety standards for milk and chicken?

Oh. Joe Kasper, Pete Hegseth's Chief of Staff, resigns. Can't wait to hear the backstory on this one. 🍿

How could this happen? I thought Trump told Putin to “STOP!”

Exclusive: The Pentagon will resume gender-affirming care for transgender service members, according to a memo we obtained.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s chief of staff, Joe Kasper, has been ousted from his post at the Pentagon. Kasper’s ouster is the latest twist in a hellish month at the Pentagon that has included multiple firings of Hegseth’s political appointees, Signalgate scandals, knife-fight power…

NEW: Nike has made an expansive effort to convince consumers, investors and others that it is improving the lives of factory workers who make its products, not exploiting them. A rare view of wages at one Cambodian factory tests this claim. With @oregonian.com

Donald Trump ordered the Department of Justice to investigate the leading platform through which Democrats raise money for their campaigns. Less that 100 days in, Trump is weaponizing DOJ to prevent his political opponents from funding opposition campaigns. Where is the outrage?

Disabled people detained by Ice sound alarm over overcrowded jails. Rodney Taylor, whose legs were amputated as a toddler, is just one of many people with disabilities at risk from detention. #MomSky #Voices4Victory www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
