People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

I never thought Mitch would get through the pearly gates before this, now I’m certain he will spend eternity with Limbaugh.

Yeah!

Schrier to RFK Jr: You gave Cassidy the answer he needed to hear in order to get his confirmation vote, then as soon as you were secretary you turned around & fired all 17 members. You lied. I also want to be clear that I will lay all responsibility for every vaccine-preventable death at your feet.

UPDATE: “The man who impersonated ICE to intimidate the employees of a Philly auto repair center — and steal about $1,000 — will face numerous felony and misdemeanor charges…”: www.phillyvoice.com/philly-robbe... Fake ICE agents were inevitable. How can cities be proactive about this?

Their mission is obedience. But their legacy will be shame. History will not ask what side they were on. It will ask what kind of men these were who did this? These are not soldiers of a nation. They are enemies of the people!

Today marks the third anniversary of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. What's happened since? A record number of women have been prosecuted. Pregnancy loss is now considered extremely suspicious, even when it has nothing to do with abortion.

Brownshirt ICE rolled up to my local Home Depot today and got the F-off treatment. Shoutout to this woman because this is exactly how it’s done. No badge, face covered = F*ck all the way off. 📌 It’s on us citizens to stand up for our vulnerable brothers and sisters.

#madisonwi! 📣 No Kings. No War. No 1984. Thursday, June 26th, 4-7pm @ The Wisconsin State Capitol Building (meet at the Forward statue) 📣 wisconsinresist.squarespace.com/events/madis...

And now he gloats....assuming he will be nominated for a peace prize...or maybe the POS prize..

NEW: ProPublica spent 14 months investigating how the FDA gave substandard factories banned from the United States a special pass to keep sending drugs to Americans. Here are the key takeaways from our reporting.

Giannoulias: We passed a bill through our office that became law to make sure that automatic license plate readers could not be used in cases involving abortion or immigration. We found out a few weeks ago was that a law enforcement agency in Texas was using these automatic license plate readers

Wallace: To hear him do his “bit” about it—it’s trivializing the gravest part of the job. And to think about him actually being in that capacity again, as the country’s only commander-in-chief? It’s tragic. It’s really one of the most tragic parts of having him back as president

“Forget about intelligence” is a pretty good mantra for this administration

And just like that, the ‘No New Wars’ people are all-in on a new war. Proving yet again that they really believe in nothing other than what one man tells them to believe today. Which could be different tomorrow. The very definition of a cult.

If you’ve got a badge and a gun but think your actions are shameful enough to need a mask, you should quit.

MoCo's Community Advocacy Institute creates more capacity for county residents to participate in government. This week's MD-08 Local Heroes, CAI graduate Datrina Davis and Board Chair Dr. Jeffrey Johnson, shared more about this great program.

BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional. We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.

ICE agents are complaining that every time they go out (unmasked/in unmarked cars) protesters are dumping pounds of glitter on them. So people can identify them as ICE for days afterward. Time to buy glitter . . .

Activists from a pro-Palestinian group on Friday broke into Britain’s largest air force base and damaged two aircraft in what they said was a protest against the country’s military support for Israel.

I think we all know why, Eric.

Senator Padilla makes an excellent point: if the FBI and Secret Service were willing to physically remove a Senator they had just escorted into the room, force him down on the floor and cuff him because he tried to ask a question What do you think they & ICE do to regular people?

After the 9th Circuit rules Trump is likely to prevail on his claim he properly federalized the CA Nat’l Guard, Trump suggests he’ll do it elsewhere, too. #BlueCrew #ProudBlue #Resist #StrongerTogether #NoKings #DemocracyMatters #DefendDemocracy #StayWoke #NoMoreAuthoritarians #ProtectOurRights

E. Jean Carroll: This is a man who wears apricot makeup, with his hair twirled around his head like Barbara Stanwyck in Ball of Fire. I was so close—I heard almost every single thing he said. The farting—you wanted to know about that? It was a silent one… sort of.
