"Using migrants’ compliance with the immigration system as a means of rounding them up has led to an outcry...Dylan had entered the U.S. lawfully, enrolled in public school, had employment authorization, and had no criminal record at the time of his detainment." www.thebulwark.com/p/dear-democ...

Basically, Biden did what he promised, which was increase the audit rate on the rich, which is where the most consequential tax evasion occurs. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/05/u...

We're in this together.

The world has shrunk! We need to act accordingly and embrace our neighbors! substack.com/@jzacek/note...

DOGE was a smash and grab robbery of our personal data.

NEW: Trump Administration Proposes Cutting Tribal College Funds by Nearly 90% @mattkrupnick.bsky.social

Such great news!!!

Cuts have consequences, illustrated. As seen on TV 📺

104 years ago, a white supremacist mob burned homes, murdered families and destroyed Black prosperity in Tulsa’s Greenwood District. The #TulsaRaceMassacre remains a stain on our nation. We must honor the victims by continuing the fight for equality and justice in our time.

🚨 Tucked into the Republican BS Budget (section 70302) is a provision that would prevent courts from holding members of the Trump admin accountable via contempt rulings. Meaning, a judge could order an action (Ex: return illegally deported people), but couldn't force COMPLIANCE of those orders. 😳 🎧

WATCH: “What are you afraid of, Andy?!” Rep. Andy Ogles refuses to hold a town hall, is instead co-opting Memorial Day for a closed-door presser inside a CLOSED CAPITOL today with ICE, pushing his anti-immigrant agenda alongside Jack Johnson, Bulso + other Republicans 🇺🇸 Meanwhile, outside:

GUARDIAN BOARD warns against falling into a debt fearmongering trap: “Republicans understand what Dems still don’t: deficits aren’t the danger. It’s what you do with them that matters.” Deficits help the rich: bad Deficits help regular folks: good www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

🇺🇦 Zelensky: Russian strikes are becoming more and more audacious and large-scale every night. 900 strike drones against Ukraine in three days, plus missiles - this makes no military sense, but it is a clear political choice - Putin's choice - the choice to continue fighting and destroying lives.

FOR OBVIOUS REASONS, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ARE UP TO DATE ON YOUR VACCINATIONS NOW.

#Republicans have included $300 MILLION in the budget for......Trump's golf trips. You heard that right. But there is no money to feed hungry kids school lunch. #GOPTaxScam

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

I missed this until @hcrichardson.bsky.social latest alerted me to provocateur Charlie Kirk's Turning Point #ProfessorWatchlist. W/O proof, it highlights uni profs discriminating agst conservative students, fostering anti-American values & advancing leftist propaganda. billmoyers.com/story/the-wa...

Members of the military who oppose fascism, Please keep this phone number where you can find it.

Approved by Congress in 2022, the plaque honoring law enforcement personnel for defending the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, can’t be installed until House Republican leadership gives the go-ahead.

The political world needs to pause, reassess, and come to terms with the simple fact that there are no actual Republican moderates on Capitol Hill. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

This is a really excellent overview of the GOP's recent budget proposal bill with compelling visuals that show us the current administration's economic vision for the US: "You pay more for less." Thank you, @gelliottmorris.com www.gelliottmorris.com/p/republican...

Remember this: #Democrats offered multiple amendments to the #GOPTaxScam, which would've blocked tax cuts to multi-millionaires and billionaires at the expense of workers and the middle class. Republicans rejected each amendment.

Whistleblower details how DOGE may have taken sensitive NLRB data. I don’t know who’s reading out there but if you are, this is a fascinating story about how DOGE is operating in our nations IT systems. It deserves more attention than it’s getting. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

This irreversable action can not happen! Please call your congress representatives. youtube.com/shorts/W7nu-...
