Three years ago today, Trump's far-right Supreme Court majority ended Americans' federal right to abortion under Roe v. Wade. Since then, over 100 women have been denied emergency abortion care. Amber Nicole Thurman, 28, was one of them. Today, share her story. www.propublica.org/article/geor...

ICE is literally beating and kidnapping Americans in the streets and disappearing them to gulags in other countries but yeah, let's instead demonize the Iranian American and American Muslim communities with good old "sleeper cell" fear mongering to distract from Trump's illegal war with Iran.

WATCH: “This is f*cking kidnapping! That’s not your badge… I do have a little bit of education… get the f*ck out of here, racial profiling is illegal…” A brave woman melts ice 🧊 💪🏽 www.instagram.com/reel/DLOWbEs...

Take off those masks, and let us compare the faces to J6 felons who were pardoned. My bet would be on several matches.

MAGA never got the Epstein files, Fauci isn’t in prison, and Hillary never got locked up, but they got a war for regime change in Iran.

Impeach Trump Now! Bombing Iran without authorization violates the US Constitution and Congressional War Powers. It is "absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment," tweeted @aoc.bsky.social. Call your reps and demand action. ☎️

💯. There is no strategy, only impulses to quench an unquenchable narcissistic thirst.

Congress? You awake?

We’ve just entered a war with a bunch of fucking clowns running the government. Our troops deserve better than this.

pro tip: tonight is not the night for you to tell me why Democrats are just as bad

Wondering if this shirt is still available

How did this work out?

Francisco Urizar, 64, was detained by ICE while on his work route delivering tortillas. His daughter Nancy is trying to find out what happened to him.

Sounds like everyone who can, should be protesting at every immigration detainment center, fighting for their basic human rights like safe drinking water, food and medical care. These are crimes against humanity. Republicans disgust me. People are dying!

Instead of CUTTING Social Security benefits, Congress should INCREASE payments by $200 per month and extend the solvency of the Social Security program by 75 YEARS. How? Make the wealthiest Americans pay a fairer share. I’ve got a bill to get it done.

We still have no idea who the ICE agents are. They could be insurrectionists, extremist militiamen or criminals themselves, chasing law-abiding citizens down the street for recording their kidnappings. The odds they aren't are low. Congress must raise hell about this. A masked gang runs our country.

The U.S. Senate is currently considering a budget reconciliation bill that quietly includes language that could devastate our public lands. It would: - Make over 250 million acres of public land eligible for sale - Mandate the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and BLM land

That’s Judy Vance now.

I say we never let Judy Vance forget the mistake he’s made.

The Los Angeles Dodgers announced today that the organization will donate $1 million to immigrant families impacted by recent raids.

SAY IT PLAIN: Federal “ICE officers” should not be anonymous. And this shouldn’t be a controversial thing to say.

This cannot be posted enough times. Please repost and feel free to share anywhere you have social media!

You know what would truly “make America great again? New management.

Nah, our mainstream media would never ask a question like this.

Bravo!! NAACP The way I see it. He is no President "Waste of Time" "Won't give a platform to fascism"

The same people who can’t stop talking about Biden’s health won’t ask Trump why this keeps happening.

They murdered top Democrats in their homes 5 days ago and the president and corporate media could not care less.

"Only 8% of the 805 miles the state identified for construction is complete, which has cost taxpayers more than $3 billion to date..." www.texastribune.org/2025/06/17/t...

This is something only scum would do

Congress members have a legal right to conduct oversight at ICE facilities. This is the regime hiding its blatant abuses.

I'm a human rights lawyer. I have represented immigrants & asylum seekers my entire career. As you see ICE increase its attacks on immigrants, here are steps you as a US citizen can take to be an ally & protect immigrants from ICE and CBP absue.

Less than two weeks ago, the richest man in the world claimed the president of the United States was directly involved with Jeffrey Epstein and that seems like five years and 15 scandals ago. This is all quite unsustainable.

It should be ILLEGAL for someone to attempt to arrest you with their fucking face covered. And that shouldn't be controversial.

The White House called a lid, meaning that Trump isn’t expected to be seen or heard from for the rest of the evening. Cool, cool. Not like the American people need to hear from POTUS while we’re tweeting our way into a war, or anything.

Don’t underestimate how Donald being pissed at the military for humiliating him with its shabby military parade is factoring into his current talk of putting them in harm’s way. He *is* that petulant.

We now know that the GOP's Big Ugly bill would allow for the sale of 250 MILLION acres of public land. 5.4 million in Washington state. We can't let them jam this through in secret. Help me say it loud and clear for Republicans: Public lands belong in public hands.

Thou shalt not arrest elected public officials for trying to speak for their constituents.

Parnas: He sends the Marines into American cities not to protect us, folks, but to silence us. He ignores court orders like they’re optional. He surrounds himself with loyalists who exist solely to carry out his will. This is a leadership style that’s called authoritarianism.

I wrote this four days ago. Today, they arrested the NYC Comptroller.

BREAKING: A federal judge in Massachusetts (the Reagan-appointed William Young) has declared the Trump administration's cuts to NIH grants — ostensibly over Trump's EOs on gender ideology and DEI — are "illegal" and "void." He's ordering many grants restored.

Donald Trump cannot exist without the support of Republican lawmakers. Each one of them need hammered into submission.
