Melissa Hortman was only 55 years old. She had a lot more to do. It is so bitter and so sad that her life was taken - assassinated for fighting for what she believed in. It will now be up to us to carry on these fights.

Please read and share this statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman, children of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark. (via WCCO reporter Caroline Cummings on X)

Genuinely appreciate all the Boomer generation energy this weekend.. We need it. Also, call Congress: 202-224-3121

"what demands people were making is an important aspect...besides the 3.5 percent magic number, what other organizational capacities the people represented in the 3.5 have... the more you stare at those details...those are actually the things that matter most, more than the 3.5 percent number."

"How does it feel to get arrested at 87 years old? He said "I'm just beginning!"

"Because we see our democracy's in real trouble. We see a president who has made himself a king and dictator." "We're disgusted and we're scared, and we know the only way to fight this now is for the people to come together." - @markruffalo.bsky.social on why he's at the #NoKings event in NYC

This audience member might have just broken Jon #AfterTheCut

ICE picked the wrong neighborhood šŸ’„

Political violence is wrong, and it’s meant to intimidate, scare, and silence people. Don’t let it. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be silenced. Speak your piece. Protest. Protest peacefully. #NoKings

In a Gangster State, the dear leader wastes other people's money on military parades to broadcast his fake strength, attacks the legislative branch and destroys programs that benefit the people.

This man is my hero because he’s a member of the United States Air Force and is standing by his #Oath to the #Constitution! I’m hoping that since he has taken the lead others will follow because this is what a true American Soldier looks like! Remember your Oath to the Constitution

#nokings Freedom requires action. Let's go.āœŠļø

This is a shocking development. Two leading Democratic lawmakers and their spouses in Minnesota were shot in their homes early this morning by a man possibly impersonating a police officer. This is the kind of violence we have been warning about. www.fox9.com/news/brookly...

IMPORTANT. Stop sharing messages like this. This is not a sit-in and it is not a wise decision if violence breaks out.

We know what we have to do to save our city from Andrew Cuomo. We're cross endorsing šŸ¤ @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

Oh dear lord...😯

Boebert: What we’re seeing in LA is an insurrection Pritzker: You don’t know understand what insurrection is. It is outrageous that you are asking that when you are the one condoning the pardoning of people that attacked police.

Efficient resistance means pushing back against fascism & pressuring it both on the streets as in the court rooms. Scenes from Tucson Arizona where protestors cornered Trump regime ICE troops, sprayed them in self-defence. Protestors kettled ICE & used their own riot control methods. #3E #StopICE

I am Democrat Shawn Harris. I am a husband, father, retired General and farmer. I have announced my candidacyĀ to defeat Marjorie Taylor Greene and I know we will together. Her hate and conspiracies do not belong in Congress. Let’s end the chaos together. Share and join me in this fight:

If you silence free speech and trample the Constitution, you’re the lawless one. ā€œJust obeying ordersā€ is not a defense.

"The brokenness is a feature, not a flaw..." That'll preach.

BREAKING:: YESSS:: Judge Breyer - Justice Breyer's brother, has ORDERED the Trump regime to RELINQUISH CONTROL of the California National Guard to GOVERNOR NEWSOM. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

AOC: When they say illegal vs legal immigration—they are trying to end legal status in the US making people undocumented and then they have the audacity to call them illegal when they were here documented.

In Santa Ana, California, an ICE agent body slams an elderly man.

Truth-tellers, not rioters. Protect these two men at all costs. ā€œYou feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history.ā€ ā€œJohn Lewis said make good trouble… that means make trouble on behalf of democracy.ā€

Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho didn't hold back when expressing his anger and "contempt" after agents with Homeland Security attempted to gain access to two elementary schools earlier this week.

Everyone should say it: The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism. Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trumpist movement and translates them into policy. But that's not what's interesting about Miller. It's not brains. It's bile.

There is no mass-deportation campaign going on right now. Deportation is a process. This is kidnapping and human trafficking.

What we’re seeing in L.A. isn’t an insurrection—so why federalize the National Guard? Why the threat of using the U.S. military against civilians? We’re not there yet—but we’re closer than we think. Watch this Project 2025 reminder until the end. Then view everything happening through that lens.

Big point that is being missed: without the insurrection act, the activated Guard troops are now federal army and cannot Do law enforcement. Period

If you are National Guard or Active Duty military and you are being ordered to violate the constitutional rights of US citizens then this is the number to the GI Rights Hotline. There is support. You don’t have to go through with it. 877-447-4487

Remember: Donald Trump is invading Los Angeles tonight because he destroyed the economy and Elon called him a pedo He’s desperate for a distraction

Better safe than sorry… 🚨Heavy ICE Presence Expected in Los Angeles on Sunday. A bilingual warning is being shared with the community — including areas to avoid. Stay alert. Protect each other. Know your rights.

A teacher breaks down after ICE causes multiple schools to lockdown during graduation ceremonies and parents to flee for their lives. Only the soulless aren’t hurting from what is happening in our country. This is affecting all of us.

Trump coup d’état time. Elon Musk and Peter Thiel are going to try to coup d’état Trump to put JD Vance in power. The Kremlin propagandists are backing Musk as well.

Germany’s Chancellor Merz presented Trump the birth certificate of his German grandfather, Friedrich Trump. It was a clever jab to remind Trump he’s a German immigrant.

Lowe’s Dyson Nivea Tiffany Capital One UPS Disney Door Dash Live Nation Anheuser-Busch Diageo Pepsi Nissan PWC Citi Mastercard …all pulled their support for Pride. If brands aren’t supporting your equality, you don’t need to support their profitability. popular.info/p/pride-and-...

I’m a freedom-loving conservative. I left the Republican Party 5yrs ago. Today, I’m doing something I never thought I’d do - I’m formally joining the Democratic Party. Here’s why:šŸ‘‡ open.substack.com/pub/socialco...

This kind of clear, direct explanation of what’s happening is basic journalism and yet it’s surprising to hear it stated so forthrightly in this mealy-mouthed era.

Spread the love and acceptance #pridemonth

The GOP's "Big, Beautiful" budget bill, which Republicans passed in the U.S. House, makes deep cuts to Medicaid that then-candidate Donald Trump swore would never happen. Here in North Carolina, it would revoke Medicaid benefits from 470,000 people across our state.

When we fight, we when.āœŠļø

Similarities between ICE & the Gestapo

We don't have to keep having the Jonis. We can press the reset and have the Annies.
