Everyone deserves dignity — with access to housing, healthcare, and education. The opportunity to thrive regardless of age, race, gender, sexuality, religion, or job status. We all deserve safety, clean air, clean water, and communities free from violence.

260,000 favs and 107,000 forwards on Instagram. Normie libs assuming command.

It was sickening to see United States Senator Mike Lee use the tragedy in Minnesota to take cheap political shots, risk escalating a dangerous moment, fan the flames of division with lies while the killer was still on the loose He needs to take his posts down and apologize to the victims’ families

When House Republicans passed their version of Trump’s Big Ugly Bill CBO estimated their destruction of Medicaid would take health insurance from 11 million Americans That wasn’t enough for Senate Republicans Folks If you participated in the #NoKings protest THIS IS PART OF WHAT YOU’RE FIGHTING

Trump is alone, humiliated, surrounded by loser supporters, and extremely angry. This is when he'll be at his most dangerous and will do as much as possible to hurt America and the world.

If Republicans pass the Big Ugly, 16 million people will lose health coverage. Hospitals will close their doors across the United States―especially in rural and underserved areas. Senate could hold a vote on theirs as soon as next week. Time to get loud everywhere!

"Daily Show" host Jon Stewart harshly criticized Mike Lee for his posts about the shootings that left a Minnesota lawmaker and her husband dead, calling Lee “the avatar of the insanity of this moment.”

“Insurrection” is the word tyrants use when the people refuse to obey. It’s how the perpetrators of oppression frame themselves as victims to silence dissent, smear resistance, and cloak their violence. But history only asks one question: Who stood for justice: the regime or the resistance?

A huge amount of catastrophic policy right now is being driven by the fact that Stephen Miller grew up in Santa Monica and was furious when a life change pushed him into a school district where he had to share a classroom with Hispanic kids he despised. This is his revenge tour.

Thought of the Day – 6/15/25: They hyped a “historic” parade. Hardly anyone showed—half were press. Meanwhile, millions marched for #NoKings. That’s real power. That’s America. That’s #FuckTrump! #NoDictators #PowerToThePeople #June15 #AbolishTheThrone #News #FathersDay #Resist

200 days of nonstop mass protests against the Russian / oligarch takeover. They are fighting for freedom, justice, democracy and a European future. Immensely proud of Georgia and the incredible people's resistance. Truly brave and determined warriors. (📹@True_Georgian) #3E #GeorgiaProtests

Dear Congress, We don’t want a king. So do your jobs or resign. Sincerely, Americans who believe in the Constitution #RemoveTrump #NoKings

Zero empathy expressed.

It seems we reached 3.5% of the American population protesting yesterday. What if we could get those 11 million people… ➡️ Involved in building community resilience and the infrastructure to strike - mutual aid networks, community meals and gardens, tenant unions, childcare networks, resource hubs?

THREAD: The assassinations in Minnesota highlight a dirty secret hardly ever mentioned in the news: U.S. has 1.1 million private police officers. There is an unprecedented footprint of privately organized violence that is doing all sorts of things most people have no idea about.

It appears the Trump administration is trying to normalize violations of the Posse Comitatus Act Which will both make it easier for the military to carry out unlawful orders And desensitize Americans so much that they stop resisting the creeping advance of fascism

“Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.” Yesterday, you were the stars, your compassion, your courage, your pride in standing up for what’s right lit up the darkness. This is the America we believe in. 💚✊

Michigan Democrats describe Smit’s crusade, which has included a parade of election deniers testifying before the committee — as a conspiracy-fueled partisan effort to discredit Benson, who is running for governor, and plant the seeds to sow discord ahead of the 2026 election.

This is how it’s done! 👊🏿👊🏾👊🏽👊🏼👊🏻

If passed, the SAVE Act would limit access to our democracy for millions of eligible voters. The House has already passed it, but the Senate can still stop it in its tracks. Tell your Senator to REJECT this bill in defense of our voting rights.

It’s a frightening time in our history. But in spite of that reality — or rather, in response to that reality — we are organizing and still rising. #NoKings

Reminder: Republicans are facilitating a massive transfer of wealth to the richest Americans while making cuts that would rip away healthcare and food from millions of people. It's Robin Hood in reverse.

For the History Books: For the First Time Ever, All 50 States Are Protesting the President—At the Same Time!

At least 12 million people ( 3.7% of US pop) took a stand against the Trump regime and fascism on Saturday. The next step is a national general strike and boycotts. When 3.5% of the whole population of a nation has begun to participate in resistance, success is inevitable. #3E #NoKings #StopICE

Across the country, our coalition members are holding candlelight vigils to honor the victims and their families. We’ll end the night with drinks, but right now, prayers come first. If you want to join us, put a candle out on your front porch.

At least 4 MAGA terrorist attacks took place in the United States targeting peaceful protestors & lawmakers on Saturday, one assassination, a shooting into a crowd, and two car rammings. Other MAGA showed up at protests attempting to intimidate people. MAGA is a terrorist group.

When I tell you Los Angeles is an occupied city/county, this is what I mean… Yesterday, ICE agents showed up to a regular Saturday swap meet with armed Marines and a military helicopter overhead, like it’s a fucking war zone.

I doubt anyone will see me post, but this needs to be known... if you have a visible following please repost 💙🔥💙 Admitting he wants "his people... aka US " to behave like north Korea for Kim Jong Un.🤬

In 2020, when I told people that I was building a pro-democracy media outlet, people thought I was kidding. When I told them it was because the fight for democracy was the fight of our time, they thought I was being overly dramatic. Well...here we are. Please subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

I love seeing the massive #NoKings turnouts in major cities, but what I love even more are the hundreds and hundreds of small, rural towns that had relatively bigger turnouts compared to their populations 💙🙏

15,000 protests since Jan. is a new record. Record # of total participants in protests. Record # of new participants in protests. Record # of coalitions coming together for each mass protest. Increasing numbers of volunteers in coalitions. Record # of volunteer hours completed. 🤝 Unity✊️Solidarity
