Media, frame the truth: The Big Beautiful Bill is The Big Bill that Kills. Republicans are MAGA. Israeli attacks are war crimes. President Trump is just Trump or authoritarian Trump. Tariffs are taxes. Call it what it is media. Stop the lies.

@stoicthinker2025.bsky.social Conservative-packed and corrupt SCOTUS cannot be trusted to uphold the law. It is Mitch McConnell’s fault that the scale has been tipped in favor of corruption.

What do the words “climate crisis,” “trauma,” and “Latinx” have in common? The Trump administration says they’re all too dangerous to say. And papers and website with those words are being deleted. What other words do you think are on the list to remove? pen.org/banned-words... #DemsAbroad

Why do some mainstream media outlets post Trump's lies without rebuttals? If you can't make the time to rebut Trump's lies, don't post them. Pretty simple.
