JUST WATCHED SENATOR BOOKER BREAK THE RECORD! NOW TAKE HIS CALL TO ACTION!

Federal agents have been filmed wearing masks while making arrests in public. When is it legal for police and the public to conceal their faces in an age of digital facial recognition and doxxing?

A top vaccine advisor at the FDA was forced to resign on Friday. In his resignation letter, Dr. Peter Marks, wrote "truth and transparency are not desired," by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

JD Vance on Greenland: “…we can’t just ignore the president’s* desires…” It doesn’t matter what that orange shitstain covets. Bullying and/or invading a sovereign nation ain’t it. Trump, Vance, and the US dictatorship needs to fuck off, preferably over a cliff. The democratic world HATES you.

Thousands of people rallied on Saturday to protest President Trump, including his handling of the war in Ukraine, his stance on reproductive rights and the firing of federal workers. About 300 protests, organized to commemorate International Women’s Day, were scheduled around the U.S.

Fascism is here. The list of words Trump is banning from government is the most stunning document of our time. Click the image below to see how many words Trump and Musk have canceled as part of their new Reich. đź”—: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

My new favourite phrase, courtesy of @sethandrews.com: “There is the door — now off you fuck.”

I rewatched V for Vendetta this evening and actually found myself quite emotional about it. The mirroring of recent events is just nauseating. Obviously very different… but the overarching themes are still there. #fucktrump

This is one of the most shameful days in U.S. history. A weak, corrupt, deceitful, compromised Kremlinist U.S. president recruited his Yarvinist VP to gang up on a heroic ally on live TV. It devolved into a shouting match. Why? This report explains _exactly_ why:

It is important that people understand and accept as fact that our government is compromised. I don't mean compromised in some cloak-and-dagger sense, I simply mean that this government no longer accepts core democratic principles and is angling toward an autocracy that's part of a New Axis of Evil.

Tonight on @siriusxmprog.bsky.social Pathetically Putrid Presidential Pro-Putin Porn. -also- -Lizz Winstead of AAF takes your calls on the fight for abortion rights -TV's Frank, Frank Conniff -You: 866.997.GRIT

I stand with the people fighting to help Ukraine. I oppose the Trump/Putin gangster regimes. Canada has a malignant threat on our border while the front line in Ukraine is being hammered. This is an all hands on deck moment for our nation and the world.

Dear Americans: Now is the time to rise up, for the sake of your own democracy and for the sake of the world.

Anger. Righteous anger. We need more of it in this country.

FUCK TRUMP SLAVA UKRAINI

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago. But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today. He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

Could not agree more. The Prez & VP are shameful, embarrassing Putin puppets & a disgrace to our country. 🤮 #SlavaUkraine 🇺🇦

How soon before little MARCO is the subject of their public ridicule? #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

Trump and Vance just made Zelensky one of the most popular leaders in the world.

Watching the orange tyrant on TV with Zelensky. Zelensky's restraint is amazing.

hat tip to @theliamnissan.bsky.social

Trump is too much of a coward to say a bad thing to Putin, yet he dares lecture Zelensky? Russia is on the verge of collapse and Trump/Vance are desperate to save them

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist. He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

It bears repeating.

While watching that horrifying, globe-shifting exchange with Zelenkskyy, I couldn't help but think about what a deliberately staged reality-TV moment it was, with two people ganging up on one and screaming a classic, totally petulant reality-TV accusation: They hadn't been thanked enough.

Pathetic. Shameful. Cowardly. Disgusting. Trump and JD Vance showed the world they will enthusiastically reward the aggression of dictators and don't think freedom is worth fighting for. They are setting fire to Reagan's "City Upon A Hill."

Trump doesn’t want “peace.” He wants to “make a deal” for his bestie Putin to get everything he wants, and for Ukraine to cease to exist. Zelenskyy shouldn’t bother with the Orange Dictator anymore. Don’t take any “deals” from Trump! #SlavaUkraini

GOOD!! Go Canada Go!

Zelenskyy should not have to resign because of bullies! 🤬

Canadians will never bend or break in the face of tyranny. The question of 3 down or 4 down football may be more open to debate but I know where I stand. Go Canada Go.

OHHH CANADA 🇨🇦 Congrats Team Canada on winning the inaugural #4Nations 🏆

McDavid wins it in overtime. Oh Canada! 3-2. #4nations

Let’s be honest. We really needed this. #4Nations #CanadaWins

🚨 JUST IN: Canada DEFEATS the USA 3-2 to take home the #4Nations  Championship

Sometimes I feel like I’m made of glass; one tap at the wrong point will cause me to shatter. The anxiety of living in a world of projectiles — literal and figurative — is killing me. I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels this way.

Here's my latest reflection on a lesson I learned from a woman who was in the second tower on 9/11. When the world is turned upside down taking action is the only way to survive. Our democracy is under threat but politicians are still living in 2024. charlieangus.substack.com/p/no-return-...

Your good new story for the day. I just received a message from a landlord in Florida. He has lost over $30,000 in rentals since Canadians began the boycott. Canadians are doing their part. LET'S TAKE THE BOYCOTT INTERNATIONAL. We invite allied nations to boycott all things American.

I really dislike Pierre Polievre’s new #CanadaFirst slogan. Not only is it a rip off of the orange dictator’s slogan, it is also patently unCanadian. I love my country and I will fight for it till my dying breath, but we are also part of a global community which relies on us as we rely on them. The

Don't spend another dollar in America. Across the country people are cancelling long-planned trips. I just heard from a Canadian travel agent who is telling her customers she won't book trips to the United States. Canada The boycott is strong. Canada #strongasfuck We don't bend. We don't break.
