WATCH - @jessicatarlov.bsky.social on Fox: “If that was a Democratic dogemaster who showed up with a shiner and there was a report he did so much Ketamine he couldn’t pee straight… you would be leading your show with it.”

Get up! Stand up people!

Is it just the ones who are inside someone’s womb? Asking for a friend. FFS.

Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

Just sixty years ago, over 90% of children would have been infected by measles, and of those who developed symptoms, around a quarter would be hospitalized. Measles vaccinations have prevented over ninety million deaths worldwide. #USDemocracy

Goodbye to building 4, room 3 for the next nine weeks. Hold it down for me until I return. Year 28 is in the books! 👨🏽‍🏫❤️🧘🏾

How much love do I have for climbing? Came right here from my classroom, where I will not return for nine weeks (cue “ohhhmmmmmm”!) This pink V3 is closer to a 4 with a demanding body shift half-way thru. Handling my business, which does not include 7th graders! 🧗🏽❤️🧘🏾

The. More. You. Know. 💫 Trump, and his administration, had a 96% LOSS RATE in federal courts, THIS MONTH alone… 72% of those were presided over by Republican-appointed judges. Trump is just a LOSER. Enjoy. 😎✨

Always my goal and greatest hope.

The gop isn’t about governing, its simply bunch of people, many dumber than the dirt they walk on, who found a way to spend their lives sucking on the teat of our country while crying about needing less government.

"Let cash registers ring!"

The first known Memorial Day celebration, May 1, 1865, organized by recently freed, formerly enslaved African Americans in Charleston, S.C. This beautiful, poignant and urgent story is why we must teach ALL of our nation’s history. 👨🏽‍🏫✊🏾🇺🇸

We can keep discussing these societal issues year after year, but nothing is likely to change. Instead, it’s up to you to take proactive steps to protect yourself and your family and live with the reassurance that you can protect your life if the threat arises—plain and simple.

How a real President honors fallen heroes.

Not sure if democracy remains on the docket? My law firm is litigating 53 voting and election cases in 22 states. When we fight, we win.

Christian Nationalists pretend that the United States was founded as a Christian nation, but the Constitution never mentions Jesus or Christianity. Not even once. Instead, it bans government promotion of *any* religion. Don't be fooled by their lying propaganda.

They pretend that the USA was founded as a Christian nation. Then they pretend and insist they’re Christians. Then they govern like the motherfucking antichrist.

Classy as expected. You know what? He can wallow in his victimhood and misery. How about the rest of us go just enjoy the day and honor our fallen.

June 14th is very big! We MUST come out in numbers too big to count! Hundreds of marches across the country with more added daily. www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... NO ONE IS COMING TO SAVE US! Keep making phone calls & writing emails! Boycott! MARCH! All of us together can make a difference!

Harvard's Sidechat. Who agrees?

This is absolutely terrible news. With the shifting regulatory climate (i.e., antivax ratfuckery), Moderna has withdrawn their application for their eagerly anticipated COVID-flu combo vaccine. This vaccine offered better protection than getting each shot separately. h/t @merz.bsky.social

Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.

An FYI, you can't shame those who have NO shame, morals, ethics or integrity. BUT, ya know what sticks in their craw? Ridicule.

Young people are the hope and future of our democracy, but they can’t learn on empty stomachs. I’m voting NO on the GOP Tax Scheme which slashes food assistance and nutrition for 4 million American kids.

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

BREAKING: MeidasTouch, the nation’s top independent pro-democracy media network, is proud to announce that attorney and renowned legal analyst Katie Phang has launched a brand-new YouTube channel in partnership with MeidasTouch. Subscribe now: youtube.com/@katiephangnews

Speaker Pro Tempore: You are to direct your comments to the chair. Jeffries: You know what's interesting? Every time I come on this floor, I can use sharp language, he can use sharp language, you choose to admonish me. I don't work for you sir. I work for the American people.

I've been waiting since 3 AM to testify on my amendment to the budget to protect Medicaid. I'll wait all night if I have to.

123 Days on Time Out – ICE now haunting immigration court hallways—yes, literal! – English declared the official U.S. language by executive order – A massive tax cut bill with brutal spending slashes – Caught violating a court order on migrant deportations (again) It’s lawless rule in plain sight.

If the GOP Tax Scheme is so beautiful, then why are they voting on it in the wee hours of the morning? Maybe because it’s irredeemably ugly and cruel.

MUST WATCH: They didn’t just burn Tulsa — they burned proof. Black wealth. Black futures. Gone. And now they’re banning books so you never learn it happened. 📚 ERASED tells the truth they’re scared of. Read it before they erase that too: stan.store/gxldsociety/...

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

While I appreciate the "lock him up" and "impeach him" sentiments (and I'm with you), if Mueller, Garland, and impeachment taught us anything, its that 1) SCOTUS is corrupt and 2) We have to do this ourselves. As I've been saying for nearly 8 years: it's up to us. Always has been.

Phang: And you’ve got to appreciate that the congresswoman was able to say, “Look, this ain’t Fox News, buddy. This is Congress.” So if you’re going to be here and you’re going to try to make an allegation somewhere publicly, you better be able to back it up.

This Is What True Privilege Looks Like. The Arrogance Of Such Statements!

Remember this...👍 8+6+4+7 ='s Impeach....👍

Exactly!

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the inevitable defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy.
