UNIONS are stepping up for their immigrant brothers and sisters. Maximo Londonio, a father, longtime green card holder, and union member was arrested after returning home from the Philippines and has been unjustly detained. Machinists + aerospace workers’ union demands his release. @psl.seattle

Today, in 1958, Prince was born, progenitor of many amazing guitar licks, of great, eminently danceable songs, friend and supporter of many female musicians, and a deliverer of fantastic performances to his legions of fans. A singular talent who left us too soon 😔

This is so jarringly unAmerican that I sort of hope it wakes some normies up. It is occurring in a context where military-style equipment is being used to enforce immigration roundups and conveys the notion that we are increasingly living in a police state.

WHAT HAVE WE BECOME? ICE raiding elementary school graduations?? Protestors run over?? People kidnapped/disappeared?? @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Daily pressers - NOW! Masks, no warrants/badges. 😡 Call Your Reps and Senators: (202) 224-3121 DEMAND THEY INVESTIGATE ICE!

The Dog Mayor of NYC would like to wish everyone in the LGBTQ+ community a very happy Pride Month. Simon loves you 🌈

I kinda miss the days when we had a President who didn’t spend every Adderall waking moment rage tweeting like a 15 year old cheerleader dumped by the quarterback and writing in her burn book…

Amazing shot!

Just a cat on the patio trying to figure out how to get on the roof and get that squirrel!

it is absolutely true that lincoln tried not to get too far afield of public opinion on slavery, calibrating his positions and actions according to what he thought was the mainstream. but it is important to note that at no point did lincoln ever disavow or deny his *sincerely held antislavery views*

PRIDE MONTH DOUBLE RAINBOW IN CHICAGO HOLY SHIT

Happy Fragile Straight Man Month!

We only rate dogs. This is Chewbacca having a spa day. He's trying to relax. Please give him some privacy. 13/10

I never thought America would become an anti-immigrant nation with masked and unidentified armed people zip tying children, tackling old women and deporting American citizens in an effort to “make America great again”.

A top coronavirus vaccine adviser at the CDC has resigned, citing concerns that she could no longer help vulnerable people after officials rescinded recommendations to immunize children and pregnant women.

The Department of Homeland Security is NOT making our country safer. They're ignoring immigration laws. They're handcuffing moms, zip tying children and disappearing them without hearings or due process. They're weaponizing DHS to purge people from the population. They're hiding their faces.⬇️

I can’t speak for anyone else, but this analogy of “Lady Liberty’ held captive, is exactly how I feel about this presidency & administration and what their attempting to do with our rights and freedoms… The New Yorker captured the feelings perfectly… One word, UNACCEPTABLE!

UNDER OUR NOSES Truth Social admitting they are on a crusade to stomp out all news agencies, journalism speaking against Flump. Truth Social has even stopped saying CNN, MSNBC, NY Times etc. They have their own language & names. Now Truth refers to them as " Legacy News"

BREAKING: Newark Mayor Ras Baraka has sued Alina Habba for malicious prosecution and false arrest.

The city of Tulsa, home to one of the most horrifying racial-terror massacres in U.S. history and the people who tried to cover it up, has announced a $105 million reparations package.

Don’t look away. In Missouri, overturning the will of voters has almost become the legislature’s main business. @jeremykohler.bsky.social

Now more than ever

This was such a thing of beauty.

So excited! 20 minutes away!

The dude or dudette in the yellow towel is just living their best life.

If the GOP Tax Scheme is so beautiful, then why are they voting on it in the wee hours of the morning? Maybe because it’s irredeemably ugly and cruel.

As Donny 2 Dolls tries to cut federal funding for PBS, Mr. Rogers' words still ring true. He will never succeed in taking Mr. Rogers away from us.

When even Rand Paul is like, “Yeah, that’s too extreme.”

I wish this wasn't so funny...

April 28, 2025: Migrants are making SOS signs out of their bodies so drones can see them at our country's concentration camps.

Is that stupid person in the room with us right now?

Just a typical Thursday

💥 BREAKING: Levi Strauss shareholders voted today to reject a proposal calling on the company to cease / abolish all DEI efforts (tally TBD). LEVI Board: “Diversity and inclusion principles are critical in ensuring that our products reflect and are relevant to our diverse global consumer base.”

Van Hollen: I should also just say, I mentioned the fake margarita, they actually wanted to have the meeting by the side of the pool in the hotel. They want to create this appearance that life was just lovely for Kilmar. Which of course is a big, fat lie.

😁😁😁

meanwhile, prominent pundits continue to deny that there the administration adheres to a segregationist ideology

It's about time!

Funny one ..

The world's economy is blowing up because if his tarriffs yet all he can do is think of throwing a parade in honour of himself. Despicable !

Tuberville is an idiot.

I remember the Hillary version of this in 2017.
