Today’s hero who tossed out the TACO bomb! 👏👏

This.

And the stupid just keeps on comin’

Yup.

This is the best team crossover video I've ever seen.

A viral post is spreading fear on all platforms, supposedly from Liz and Me, about a nonexistent bill—just like the far right used to do. We cannot become what we’re fighting. The truth still matters. We win by being better, not louder. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/dont-fight...

We never went into their religious schools and demanded they teach real history, science or math. But they’re coming into real schools and universities to demand we teach their allegiance to Donald Trump. This is the result of government complacency in the face of rising Christofascism.

Nancy Pelosi is right, it's all about healthcare We can win back the House if that's our focus. Don't get sucked in to all the other bullshit! We win by focusing on health, health care, public health Spread those messages at least once a day www.politico.com/newsletters/...

You guys 🥺🥺

There's nothing holy about writing discrimination into the law.

This Is Embarrassing And Disturbing… 🇨🇦🇩🇪🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇩🇰🇳🇱🇫🇷 Canada, Germany, England, Denmark, Netherlands, and France all have travel advisory warnings for visiting America. Let that sink in.

“It is up to all of us to fix this. It’s not going to be because somebody comes and saves you.”

Take a few minutes for this one—because you might need FEMA in the near future, and you need to know what’s currently going on. Or not going on. Thank you, @repjasmine.bsky.social for telling it straight, sounding the alarm, and sharing how we can help.

CBS reporter Scott Pelley: This is a warning that I fear many will look back on in five or six years and think “he was so right”. If you haven’t already shared this, please do.

I 💙 Jasmine.....

On Memorial Day we honor the service members who gave their lives for our nation, and the loved ones who bear the burden of their loss. That is a sacrifice that cannot be repaid. As we work toward peace, let us never forget those who have served on our behalf.

This hits hard.

BREAKING: Kamala Harris, speaking in Australia, warns of the dangers of repeating the global mistakes of the 1930s, emphasizing the importance of international alliances and trust. The speech ended with a standing ovation.

‼️‼️

All. Damn. Day.

CNN sucks.

200 people spent millions on Trump’s memecoin and were rewarded with this dinner www.wired.com/story/a-heli...

The poorest Americans are going to suffer the most because of Donald Trump and Republicans’ “big, beautiful bill.” There’s absolutely nothing Christian about this. MAGA is cheering but Jesus would be weeping.

Phang: It’s time for federal judges to acknowledge that they have lifetime appointments—and that should give them the courage to uphold the rule of law, but also to put some damn teeth into the court orders they’re issuing. it’s time that we start seeing action from the judiciary. Grow some balls

This 👇

For all the shit talking people direct at Dems, they really are fighting this thing tooth and nail and they deserve a whole lot of credit

👇👇

BREAKING: AOC on GOP bill: “When you wake up in the morning, you will realize that you voted to defund planned parenthood and take away health care from 13.7 million Americans and when this country wakes up there will be consequences to pay for this.”

Did you know that $100M in food aid is rotting in warehouses that could feed the entire population of Gaza for a month and half, but a 28-year-old at DOGE is holding it hostage? www.reuters.com/world/us-aid...

There’s literally no excuse for why Cory Booker felt the need to betray Democrats and democracy to vote to confirm crime slumlord Jared Kushner’s convicted felon father Charles Kushner to become U.S. Amb to France. Don’t ever compare him to civil rights hero John Lewis again.

The absolute disgrace taking place today in front of cameras in the White House is yet another reminder that for all the talk of Joe Biden's failures, the people who failed America the most are our citizens. Empowering this guy (again) was a foreseeable disaster we'll be lucky to survive.

McGovern: "Now of course you don't want anybody to know what you're doing here. It's because you know this bill betrays the people who voted for you...you are intentionally hiding what you are doing...that's what you guys think is big and beautiful: greed, corruption, & tax breaks for billionaires."

🔥 WATCH: “They won’t even read their own bill!” Rep. Leger-Fernandez (D) shames Rep. Jason Smith (R) for refusing to read a part of the Republican bill that gives a tax break for TANNING BEDS while slashing trillions in health care for seniors and the poor. 🤔 #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

Angie Craig: "I have no idea why we think it's a good idea to repeal a tax on silencers when we are going to feed fewer children in our country as a result of this. It's a moral damn failure is what it is."

Crockett: Right now, it seems like you don’t care about the constitution unless it’s the second amendment and that’s misinterpreted as well. There’s other amendments.. And we don’t get to just change it because our fearless leader says that he doesn’t like it

I said it would get worse very quickly. By tomorrow we will have completed the most dangerous & frightening 24 hours thus far of Trump 2.0. Just to name a few: 1. Defiance of a court order by sending migrants to Sudan without due process (despite clear DP decision SCOTUS) & Dist. CT. order.

They’re charging Rep McIver with felony assault based on these interactions. Oh sorry. Ignore that last one. The person who did that was pardoned.

WARREN: Can POTUS legally tell the IRS to change someone's nonprofit status? BILLY LONG: I'm not able to answer WARREN: You can't read these words and tell me what those words say?! LONG: I can read the statute and I did WARREN: Then tell me what they mean!

BREAKING: Kristi Noem doesn’t know what Habeas Corpus is. This is highly concerning

This head of Trump’s gestapo just told congress that habeas corpus is Trump’s right to detain you, not your right to challenge it. See where this is going?
