NEW: The “Invasion” Invention Molly Redden explains the far right’s legal effort to make immigrants the enemy: www.propublica.org/article/trum...

That’s because he got his money’s worth in regulatory relief. If a Dem would help him, he’s shift like a badly built building on an earthquake www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

I'm so glad I discovered this podcast! What an informative episode.

I really need people to realize we're not going to get a better world if we don't work for it. Talk about what's happening even if it's uncomfortable. Talk about what's happening because it's uncomfortable.

Arctic Ocean: +2.2K West Antarctica: +3.9K India & Pakistan hit 46°C in April ... But hey, the stock markets! #EverythingIsFine #BusinessAsUsual #ClimateCrisis

@kellymorrisonmn.bsky.social And cut this "my door is open" bullshit. They want you to do nothing, and you are. Go to Emmer's district. Demand he meet you at a town hall. Get out in public & call out these cowards right outside their offices.

@kellymorrisonmn.bsky.social I'm sorry, but you propose we stand up to fascism by being nice? They are erasing people. They are defying the courts. They are threatening the press, the law, and the educators. And they will stop and nothing. You want us to be nice and be kind? Fuck that shit.

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

The Venn Diagram of those who whine when called out for their bigotry for voting for Trump, saying that all Trump supporters aren’t racist — and those cheering the arrest and deportation of pro-Palestine activists as all terrorists and pro-Hamas, is a full circle…

We're living in an authoritarian regime. The MAGA coup was successful. People still aren't waking up and seeing what's directly in front of them.

Bone chilling. A court ordered Kilmar Abrego Garcia to stay in the United States. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he was illegally removed. Trump is pretending he won the ruling 9-0. 1/ You may not think this case means anything to you. But let me tell you why it does.

20,000 in ruby red Utah on their feet, in community, and ready to organize for a better world. A better world is possible.

Good way to see the current tariffs, as of literally today, is no tariffs on high value add manufactured goods marketed to middle and upper middle classes. Massive tariffs for cheap consumer items which amount to the biggest economic privilege of working class/middle class life in US.

It's true. Me and male coworkers cycles are all in sync after years of screen time. Studies have shown this.

This guy updated James Carville's famous 1992 quote that anchored Clinton's campaign message. Democrats, take note.

I'm a world of Chuck Schumers, be a Cory Booker @booker.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

James Carville sufficiently summarized the Democrats message in 1992 with "It's the economy, stupid". Democrats should adopt a new message: "It's the inequality, stupid"

And we the people will reinvent the Democrats as a pro-worker party. Unions - for workers Housing - for workers New Tax Policies - for workers Eat The Rich - for workers

The richest person in the world is asking you to empty your pockets. Don't fall for it.

YES the dude who refused to accept the results of a free & fair election, tried to force states to change votes for him, organized a violent coup against the peaceful transfer of power, then watched giddy while the Capitol was sacked IS DEFINITELY GOING TO SAY HE WANTS TO KEEP POWER. It's not news.

I know it's easier to disengage, but the reason I'm still talking with my relatives and friends on the right is because there's going to be a point where if 1% or even 0.5% of them come to the left, we stop this. Last year it was 0.2%

Just going out on a limb here, but the rich controlling the AI models that will act as a tutor in our classrooms, teaching all the children to worship the rich, while also owning the government that should stop this from happening, is not the future I want.

1. Tulsi Gabbard was overseas while participating in the Signal chat. 2. Steven Witkoff was in Russia when he was added to the Signal chat. 3. Russia infiltrated Signal some time ago to use it against Ukrainians. It’s high time to Benghazi the shit out of Trump’s administration.

Some days posting about how Trump & Musk & all of these anti-American goons are destroying America feels useless. Then I realize that huge part of the authoritarian fascist playbook is to wear us down and tire us out.

Hey @npr.org, Stop the sanewashing and maybe I'll consider being a member again, like I was for 18 years before you went all Trumpian on us.

The day Target cancelled their DEI initiatives was the day my boycott started. For those just starting today, welcome to the family. #BoycottTarget

Fun Fact: Democrats are wearing pink tonight as a symbolic protest against people who want them to do something meaningful

Call your Reps & Senators on Tuesday. Tell them your views on the President acting lawlessly to thwart appropriations passed by Congress. Call them: 202-224-3121

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

Some thoughts on this, in no particular order. 1.) The Ukrainians were initially willing to give some level of mineral rights to the US for support; the Trump administration instead pushed for a massive grab of those rights and tried to force Zelenskyy into it with a late-night "sign this" move.

"I have suffered, and so should you" is one ass backwards belief system.

Dear @npr.org and @pbs.org, They're going to shut you down anyways. There is no appeasing them. Time to go down fighting.
