#USDemocracy Truth 👇

America’s Generals are terrified. They are cowed. They seem unlikely to hold the line and live up to their oaths to serve the U.S. Constitution. Trump violated the law (the Hatch Act) conducting a political rally at Fort Bragg, rousing the troops to cheer his slogans but the Generals stay silent.

The House, despite knowing so little about AI, tucked language into President Trump's "Big, Beautiful Bill" that would prohibit states and localities from any AI regulations for 10 years. They don't even know what they are trying to regulate

JUST THE FACTS…👇 Proof that the economy always does better under Democrats, and not Republicans. Enjoy. 😎✨

The Dept. of Justice has filed its first voter suppression lawsuit aimed at disenfranchising voters. This is a critical juncture for democracy. Paige and I discuss the implications and how it echoes claims made by failed state Supreme Court candidate Jefferson Griffin. youtu.be/8XEW-Ga428M

BREAKING: The Tate brothers have been charged in the UK with rape, bodily harm, human trafficking, & controlling prostitution for gain. A European arrest warrant was issued for the two last year and Romanian courts have issued an order to extradite the two to the U.K. apnews.com/article/tate...

For nearly 20 years, a doctor falsely diagnosed patients as having a chronic disease, administered unnecessary, toxic treatments and filed more than $118 million in fraudulent health insurance claims to fund his lavish lifestyle, which included a private jet, luxury cars and high-end properties.

Minority rule on full display. The wealthy have made it clear that they purchase politicians to enhance their own wealth and power. Isn't it time for us, the taxpayers who fund these elected officials' salaries, to be properly represented? #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #MomSky

On Ali Velshi's MSNBC show I urged people on this Memorial Day weekend to reflect on those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation to preserve our FREEDOMS-the same FREEDOMS Trump is seeking to end. Trump wants to be "dictator of the United States who we all have to bow down to."

How many crimes do we have to watch him commit before he's removed? Tell Congress to start drafting articles of impeachment here: bit.ly/44fpr8G #ImpeachTrump

It really is amazing how bad Trump has been at everything he's ever tried.

We have a president who virtually never thinks rationally, logically, or even in sequential steps. Nor can he fully comprehend causes and effects. His base of knowledge on virtually all subjects relating to governance and economics and world affairs is minimal. (1/2)

I really love Dark Phang! 🔥 #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #MomSky

Always telling on himself.

Americans favor labor unions over big business now more than ever, analysis of new data @epi.org from me & Adam Reich of Columbia Labor Lab. In data back 60 years, Americans' sentiments are both warmer toward unions & cooler towards big business than ever before. www.epi.org/blog/america...

Which party wins when the GOP rolls back the Inflation Reduction Act? The Chinese Communist Party. @busbyj2.bsky.social and Greg Pollock offer a sharp reminder that the US is risking its ability to compete with China if it rolls back IRA clean energy incentives. 🔌💡🔌🚗

Not ringing any bells.

A federal judge finds the Trump admin violated a court order. Trump accepts a Qatari jet. Alina Habba weaponizes the courts. And the Trump DOJ launches a probe into Andrew Cuomo. Watch a new Legal AF live at 8p ET/5p PT!

McGovern: Let me say this again: Democrats will not stand by and watch Trump and his billionaire friends destroy this country without putting up one hell of a fight. *cheers*

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

McGovern: Democrats are making a series of procedural motions today to stop the consideration of this lousy, awful, disastrous bill… we will not stand by and watch Trump and his billionaire friends destroy this country without putting up one hell of a fight.

“Ultimately what we are now witnessing is the cumulative effect of greed on mankind. The destruction of nature for profit, the destruction of our democracy to serve the needs of the wealthiest among us.”

“Six years ago, I found myself face to face with a white farmer preparing for the government to take his land. This did not happen in South Africa. It was in South Texas, and it was because of Trump…” www.nytimes.com/2025/05/21/u...

NEW: 29 House Republicans represent districts that have received at least $2 billion in clean energy investment post Biden's IRA; another 18 have received at least $1 billion. Yet ALL are poised to slash the tax incentives creating those jobs. #VoteThemOut

If Trump said it, it is a lie. When we will learn?

NYT: “.. People making between about $51,000 and $17,000 could lose about $700 on average in after-tax income .. “By contrast, the top 0.1 percent, including those with incomes over $4.3 million, would gain on average more than $389,000 ..” @tonyromm.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/05/16/u...

Paybacks a bitch! 47s AG & COS worked as a lobbyists for Qatar His FBI Director was a consultant for Qatar Qatar bailed out his Special Envoy in a failing real estate deal 47s corp is doing a luxury resort financed by Qatar Now we’re on the hook for $800MIL to upgrade a plane Qatar couldn’t sell.

A statement from AFM President Tino Gagliardi: “The American Federation of Musicians will not remain silent as two of our members — Bruce Springsteen and Taylor Swift — are singled out and personally attacked by the President of the United States. 1/

Those on the high court often exercise caution in their choice of words. That is why it was striking when she used an audience of lawyers to deliver a stern message to the legal profession: stand up for democracy, take on the hard fights and do whatever you can to win.

Trump and his ilks desperation to be seen as victims is so beta and exhausting

Just got word that Secretary Noem is asking for an addition to her budget - a new private Gulfstream 5 jet for her personal national photo op tour. She's already got a private plane but wants a tricked out new one. All while she supports kicking 13 million people off Medicaid.

The Boss: telling it like it is Springsteen shining a light on the chaos, threats & injustices of the moment with hope and love in his heart for America 🇺🇸

This is not a serious administration and it’s also filled with bad people

Keep banging that drum folks! ✊

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did.

#TrumpIsSaudisBitch has a lovely and accurate ring to it.

So the people at @msnbc.com helped me make a video on planegate

Did Trump and Pam Bondi make a deal with the Sinaloa Cartel? It would seem so, and now 17 cartel family members have been allowed to enter the U.S. apnews.com/article/el-c...

Criticism of the judiciary is fair game. But threats against judges, even if, as an institution, they have the will to withstand them, are not. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Russia, if you’re listening has come full circle

Ice needs to be abolished

The Trump regime’s loyal DHS is reportedly considering arresting Reps. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-N.J.), Rob Menendez (D-N.J.), and LaMonica McIver (D-N.J.) for attempting to hold them accountable. Congress people have the legal authority to enter ICE and CBP facilities. This is political persecution

ICE agents *know* what they are doing is probably illegal, which is why they try to conceal their identities with scarves and sunglasses. #AmericanGestapo

“.. Under this deal, it will now be cheaper to import a UK vehicle with very little U.S. content than a USMCA compliant vehicle from Mexico or Canada that is half American parts.” @thehill.com @scottlincicome.bsky.social thehill.com/business/529...
