I don’t care what city or town you live in. If these guys jumped out of an unmarked van and grabbed you on the street, would you just assume they’re ICE or FBI? Would you willingly comply with their orders and get inside the van? THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. THIS IS NOT AMERICA.

WOW! Trump and Hegseth ordered the military to screen attendees for his Fort Bragg rally to exclude any soldier who might disagree with Trump's politics, as well as anyone who was overweight — because Hegseth/Trump didn't want them seen in the crowd by the cameras. Outrageous!

When someone like Vindman is saying this, things are dark. He’s not posting 4th hand information. Don’t consult your hope when assessing what’s up ahead. It will lead you astray. Base your plans on reality.

Let’s Not Lose Focus….

@sandcrawler1990.bsky.social thank you for sharing this!!! Let’s make this viral!!!

#GVerse #Attention: Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social calls for #OrangeTurd's masked ICE agents engaged in aggressive overreach to be identified, because "This is America, this is not the Soviet Union, we're not behind the iron curtain." BOOM! REPOST!!!

Lawrence: That is the budgetary cycle we've been in since the 1980s. Republican presidents increased the deficits. Democratic presidents from Bill Clinton forward come into office and reduce the deficits created by the Republican presidents.

Tax the rich In 1961, when I was 11, the top marginal income tax rate for the uber-rich was 91%. Check it out. The rich kept producing, there was no homelessness, we all had health care and pension, I went to college WITH NO DEBT, hell, we even went to the moon!

Fact-check: True

Trump is lying. There is no white genocide unfolding in South Africa- as the SA President tried to make clear. But Trump wants us to believe there is so that he can fly in lots of white people.

Everything he touches goes bankrupt.

If the birthright citizenship (14th amendment) is removed does that mean that the executive branch can remove citizenship for anyone they deem doesn’t meet or adhere to their viewpoint/criteria? This is a slippery slope

Remember that several people asked Pam Bondi during confirmation SPECIFICALLY what she would do on matters pertaining to Qatar (which she did not disclose) or GEO (pertinent to the Baraka arrest). She said she'd consult top career lawyer at DOJ abt recusal. Then she fired that lawyer.

Be as BRAVE as this grandma! FIGHT BACK against the dying of our democracy!!!

Worst timeline

This is the best 100-day recap I’ve seen — and it begs the damn question: Why is his approval rating still 39%? Are folks in a coma?

The only thing Trump and his "administration" are DOGE-ING is the truth. Despite Trump's promised cuts, U.S. spent about $220 billion more in first 100 days than last year www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-p...

Booker: Do you think we got the right to vote for women because a bunch of men on the House floor got together and said “on the count of three, women get the right to vote..” That’s not how it happened… Change doesn’t come from Washington. It comes to Washington.

Pope Francis has died. Now begins the search for his successor — a highly secretive, tightly choreographed series of events that has been refined over centuries.

Raskin: If they can just sweep someone off the street, put them on an airplane, and send them to a torturer’s prison in an authoritarian state like El Salvador without due process… then they could do it to anybody.

An innocent man, picked up by “mistake,” must not be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. Mr. President. Obey the courts. Obey our Constitution. Bring him home immediately.

This isn’t a drill. Trump is using ICE to silence dissent and disappear immigrants. No one is safe when a president targets people for speaking out. 👇 Demand an end to politically motivated deportations NOW

We found the government “waste, fraud, and abuse”.

It’s not just women’s health they want to control, it’s our votes. One of the founders of Project 2025, John McEntee has said he wants the 19th amendment (granting women the right to vote) to go. Believe them.

Billions in federal contracts have been awarded to Elon Musk’s and Jeff Bezos’ companies, solidifying the ties between two of the world’s richest men and their allegiance to Trump.

Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"

Here he is today, deeply concerned about economic hardship caused by his tariff scheme.
