Love Bruce for speaking out , as always, against the corruption in the White House.

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents. What the fuck are we doing here?

Hey @seattletimes.com is your website down?

Because it is.

The other good news is that we the people are not scared of him.

A constitutional crisis is at hand. Congress must act.

When MTG heckled the President during the SOTU, it was (shameful) free speech. When her constituents speak out at their own town hall, they are tased and arrested. Disgusting www.nytimes.com/2025/04/15/u...

Speaking truth to grift. We are not powerless.

Yo! Shoutout to AOC & Bernie for leading by example — showing up, speaking truth & organizing w/the people, not just talking at them from D.C. We need that same energy from all Dems. Whether it’s 35,000 or 35 people — show up. Hit the streets, hit the town halls, show you’re ready to fight for us.

Disgusted but not surprised.

Great news from @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social The leadership we desperately need!

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

19 hours now and 47,000 watching live: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCUK...

Corey Booker is at hour 15 on the senate floor and there are over 36,000 live viewers on YouTube alone right now.

So proud of @booker.senate.gov for standing up for truth, justice, and the American way. Stop the oligarchs. Stop the threats to freedom of the press. Stop the criminalizing of free speech. Stop allowing the suffering of the most vulnerable both here and around the world.

Amen, sister! 💪

Unbelievably horrific. Absolutely disgusting. Completely vile. Fucking awful.

Hegseth, Gabbard, Radcliffe, and Patel should all immediately resign. Every Democrat needs to call for this. Articles of impeachment should be introduced against Trump and Vance. Doesn't matter if GOP won't vote for it. Democrats should push the issue front-and-center.

Absolutely

Would not be surprised to see several hundred (or a thousand) people at this April 5 rally in Bellingham WA!

Excellent, concise explanation of fascism, authoritarianism, oligarchy, and dictatorship by @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social Highly recommended! www.youtube.com/watch?v=vK6f...

BREAKING: The IRS is close to reaching a data-sharing agreement with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, authorizing immigration officials to use tax data to track and locate individuals SUSPECTED of being in the country illegally. Tax information — heretofore confidential — will now…

every person involved in this needs to be in prison

I love E Warren!

Consider a permanent blackout on Amazon and the Washington Post. Tesla goes w/out saying 🤬

If you feel this way, you're not along. And together, we're going to keep the Republic. Pass it on.

And must be stopped.
