This isn’t about ensuring history is “based on facts.” It’s about making sure history aligns with this administration’s narrative. The Trump administration has ordered every national park to post signs encouraging visitors to report anything

Calling #AltCitizen It's time for a #CrownCrush Virtual Protest. Details in the post below.

The absolute disgrace taking place today in front of cameras in the White House is yet another reminder that for all the talk of Joe Biden's failures, the people who failed America the most are our citizens. Empowering this guy (again) was a foreseeable disaster we'll be lucky to survive.

Don't look away, don't normalize: this is the virtually unconstrained leader of the world's most powerful country ambushing the president of South Africa with conspiracy-fueled racist propaganda promoted by his unelected billionaire maybe-appointee who has caused the deaths of children through DOGE.

Hurricane season starts June 1 and if you live in a Gulf state, you need to watch this. It’s worse than you might think. The few employees still left at FEMA admit: they are not prepared. Not enough staff. Not enough supplies. Not enough leadership. Plan accordingly.

Worth watching

RFK Jr. criticized me during a press conference this morning for saying that Trump is on the side of the oligarchs. Maybe he needs a refresher on what oligarchy actually means.

So many videos are circulating of ICE agents acting with cruelty and aggression. Behavior that eerily mirrors the “domestic terrorism” they claim to oppose. No one is forcing them to act this way; it’s a choice.

What. The. Fuck.

#AltCitizens Unite! Check out this 🧵 for more information of what we’ve been talking about.

ICE is the modern Gestapo

Members of an immigrant family in Worcester, Massachusetts were targeted, terrorized, and seized by ICE agents this week. The father was taken into custody by ICE on Wednesday, and agents returned to the family’s home Thursday to execute an arrest of the mother — without a warrant. Worcester…

TANK vs TESLA "We've crushed fascism before and we'll crush it again" - ⁠WW2 veteran Ken, 98, in the tank

JD Vance broke the National Championship trophy, then visited the Pope who died the next day, then visited India and a terrorist attack happened and war broke out, then endorsed his brother for mayor who lost 83-11%. What’s next on the agenda?

Just a quick update on flight safety. It's on everyone's minds and I would like to provide a very important statistic. So far, in 2025, we have had the most aircraft related fatalities in the US since 2001. And yes, we are referring to 9/11. It's only May.

Trump is trying to stifle free speech.  He's attacking the press. He's kidnapping U.S. residents and sending them to foreign prisons without due process. When asked if he would uphold the Constitution, he says "I don't know." If this isn't dictatorship, I don't know what is.

Indoctrination.

not beating the cult allegations

The Trump administration has halted $1 billion in funding for mental health services for children, claiming that the programs, which were established under a bipartisan law aimed at curbing gun violence in schools, are no longer in “the best interest of the federal government.”

Neutral Switzerland 🔥 I love this so much…

History does not repeat itself, but it often rhymes.

THE COST OF TRUMP Screenshot from the Port of LA live webcam 1:30 PM PST. This is not normal: Empty docks. No workers. No movement.

The richest 0.1% of Americans control $22 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% control $3.8 trillion in wealth. Read that back. Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt thought that putting lawn signs in front of the White House with a bunch of mug shots was a good idea. Even Kim Jong Un is blushing at this level of propaganda.

Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that federal authorities may once again seek reporters’ phone records and compel their testimony in leak investigations, reversing a policy that was designed to protect journalists from intrusive government efforts to identify and prosecute sources.

Bondi declares war on the courts: "What has happened to our judiciary is beyond me ... they are deranged ... we are sending a very strong message today ... we will come after you and we will prosecute you. We will find you."

1/ 🔒 Imagine a private company embedded in gov systems—processing and analyzing your health records, immigration status, and social media use. That’s Palantir, co-founded by Peter Thiel, who once said, “I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible.” Yikes. Let’s discuss 🧵

If the Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and the Secret Service can’t keep her purse safe, then they can’t keep America safe.

In a move to change cultural attitudes about childbearing, the Trump administration may soon start bestowing mothers of six or more children a special medal. Here's a not-so-fun fact: This idea was popularized in Nazi Germany.

The Supreme Court says we can and MUST

“He did say he was a U.S. citizen, but they didn't believe him,” Layva said. “I think they would have kept him..." www.azpm.org/p/headlines/...

Trump's vengeful messaging never stops.

What the fuck!?

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia was illegally abducted and is being held in a notorious prison in El Salvador — barred from contacting his family or lawyers. I’m speaking to the press now after we were denied access to the prison to check on his condition. Tune in:

We were just denied entry into CECOT — the notorious prison in El Salvador where Mr. Abrego Garcia is being illegally held. We were there for one simple reason: to check on his well-being, which his family and lawyers have not been allowed to do. We won’t stop fighting.
