Is there a filter where if you don’t have a phd in the field, autism or an immediate family member with autism that I don’t see your comments about it? I’d pay so much money for that filter. #autism

The dictator parade crowd was “this” big. #nokings

We're going to see quite a split screen today: Millions protesting peacefully in defense of democracy, and a would-be dictator ordering tanks to tear up DC streets to make him feel powerful. It's obvious what the right side is. Be on it.

Double.

This! We can’t help those ppl that have been hit by a tornado, fire, earthquake, hurricane, flood. You’re 💩 outta luck. But we’re sending hundreds of troops to LA to sleep on the ground and eat rations while nothing happens.

BREAKING: Tonight, California Gov. Newsom will be addressing California — and the nation — LIVE at around 6:30pm PT regarding Trump’s illegal militarization of LA and his broader assault on our democracy. Watch exclusively on the MeidasTouch channel.

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work. You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules. Get your lies straight.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

In other news, the president has issued a call for ICE agents to arrest each other.

Nine news headline downplaying facts to say she was caught in crossfire is apalling - you see him turn and take aim at her. That is not crossfire #ShameNineNews not standing up for your journalists. #Boycott9News #auspol

Newsom: We talked for 20 minutes, this issue never came up. I kept trying to talk about LA, he wanted to talk about all these other issues. He never once brought up the national guard. There’s no working with the President. There’s only working for him. I will never work for Trump

Four LAPD officers on horseback surround a man laying on the ground, trample him, and beat him with their polycarbonate "saber" batons.

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

Zelenskyy is demanding a ceasefire between Trump and Musk.

Just checked Fox News for the gold medal mental gymnastics. It appears it’s “national doughnut day” so yeah seems like everyone is fine.

🚨BIG STORY: Senators put a line into the crypto bill requiring bankrupt banks to prioritize remunerating crypto investors over depositors. The provision could require banks to take cash from your savings account & use it to pay senators' crypto donors. www.levernews.com/cryptos-new-...

Republicans want to raise taxes on people making under $30K, cut their Medicaid and food aid, and then tell them to have more kids. 🤔 I worked at Subway and Target making just above minimum wage without health care. You think billionaires need more help than folks making less than them?

“The press doesn't give a shit.”

WHY DOES SHE HAVE THE GREATEST ARTISTS OF ALL-TIME & I ONLY GET KID ROCK??? WAAAAAHHH!!!!! 😩

My kids really obsessed with the wild robot at the moment, but so many parts of it make me cry. It’s so beautiful. #wildrobot

If you’re out here saying someone has “stage 9 cancer” and questioning their timing, just know you’ve proven you understand absolutely nothing — even with a world of advisors at your fingertips. Maybe that’s your answer. No one owes basic explanations to willful idiots. #biden #trump
