Trump is everything the Bible warned against

The Republicans tax bill is here. It does NOT ban taxing tips. It does NOT ban taxing overtime. It does NOT ban taxing Social Security. Trump LIED to you — y’all got PLAYED.

🙌🏻🙌🏻

HAPPENING NOW: Hundreds of protesters chant “Free our Mayor!” outside the DHS building in Newark, NJ where Mayor Ras Baraka is being held (Video: @spydermonkeywatch.bsky.social)

100% accurate

@keysmart.bsky.social you haven't responded to FOUR separate emails requesting information on an order I place over 2 weeks ago. Consumer beware these guys are trash

I didn’t give a wit about new pope coverage, but the first American pope being a man with Black ancestry born in Chicago by way of New Orleans by way of Haiti. Names his self after the pope who condemned slavery? In the Trump era? Oh, baebae, I am HERE for it. www.wwltv.com/article/news...

cc John Roberts, watch your back

Donald Trump defying a 9-0 Supreme Court decision is a constitutional crisis.

The protests are not for Trump to see, they are so you can all see each other and grow. It's not the protest itself that tyrants are afraid of, but the networks and community you can grow from them. Your strength is your unity and that's why the enemy thrives by demoralizing and dividing you. #3E

In the hour of darkness and peril and fear, let’s all channel a little Paul Revere. @hcrichardson.bsky.social #paulrevere #boston250

This "WHO'S NEVER COMING BACK" document published by the White House should be "EXHIBIT A" in any forthcoming hearing where a judge/justice has asked the White House to prove how it is "facilitating" the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

It seems that Trump wants a recession. Why? A recession will drive down the prices of real estate, companies, and shares of stock. Trump and his fellow billionaires want to buy up everything on the cheap and then enjoy the ride upward — no matter the cost to working people.

Only 25 minutes until the impact of America’s renewed strength takes hold! I’m so excited to see what happens!

Since January, SpaceX has received over $560 million in government contracts—an amount projected to surpass $2 billion in taxpayer funding by year’s end, averaging roughly $6.1 million per day. Follow the money and see where it goes.

Must read: Mahmoud Khalil speaks out for the first time since his arrest by the Trump administration in an exclusive letter, dictated over the phone to his family, from ICE detention in Louisiana.

"It’s also critical for every Democratic governor to make sure they know who the state adjutant general of the state guard is. Is that someone who believes in civil government and the rule of law? That’s a talk they need to be having if they haven’t already." talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/sover...

@democrats.senate.gov Listen to the women

@senatedemocrats.bsky.social if you can't fight for what you say you believe in, get TF out of the way for those that will. We want our leaders to lead yet @schumer.senate.gov seems to have misplaced his SPINE

If you vote for this Republican Funding Bill, you are complicit in all that DOGE, President Elon, and Trump does.

This is excellent and worth a watch and share. Tonight has been a turning point in our party. Those that don’t recognize that do not deserve the power voters awarded them.

Welcome to Donald Trump’s America, where First Amendment lawyers find themselves compelled to advise people that they have no First Amendment rights.

What this career SSA employee has to say scare the bejesus out of me

The FAA approved another launch before the last crash investigation was completed — and it ended in another disaster. Why is SpaceX getting a free pass from DOGE cuts? 🤔

Two words. STATE TV

@aoc.bsky.social: "You have a right to see your elected member of Congress... Our job is to hear from people. And if you aren't doing town halls because your own residents and members of your community are upset with what you're doing, the answer is you’ve got to own your decisions."

Rep Crockett does not miss…

one of trump's thugs ripped the sign out of her hands seconds after this

500 people marched in Alaska today to demand a town hall.

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY! If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK! Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore. JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺 #24HourEconomicBlackout

Via The Guardian: Google and Meta do not meet the requirements to partner with the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, the organisation has said, after the two tech giants ended their official involvement and ditched diversity obligations in the US. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Bringing that LB energy🙌🏻💪🏼

Perhaps one of maybe half dozen Democrats (if I am being charitable) in Congress who understands how to leverage power and fight against the Republicans in modern media/political landscape. No wonder the Republicans get so triggered by @aoc.bsky.social - she just gets it.

FBI Uncovers Al-Qaeda Plot To Just Sit Back And Enjoy Collapse Of United States

Beware the declaration of an “emergency,” That is how we lose freedom and liberty.

Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Ann Telnaes announced she has resigned from The Washington Post after the newspaper refused to publish a satirical cartoon depicting billionaire Post owner Jeff Bezos (and others) on bended knee in front of President-elect Donald Trump. www.cnn.com/2025/01/04/m...

This. (And thank you for this powerful reminder @mluckovich.bsky.social)
