Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

Digraceful. Shameful. Deplorable. A fucking disgusting and abhorrent betrayal to those who swore an oath to protect the Constitution. They pledged with their lives. Our Vets deserve better. Our country deserves better. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This parade was not about the 250th anniversary of the United States Army; it's an expensive birthday party for the Dear Leader. George Washington refused to politicize the Continental Army at this nation's founding, and presidents must sustain that tradition.

I love ya Boston ❤️

I hope the President's investigation of the tragic shootings of Rep Hortman & Rep Hoffman include how his continued demonization and dehumanization of his political rivals lead to violence.

‼️‼️

If you're heading to a protest tomorrow, it's important to know your rights. Consult this information from the ACLU. Be peaceful. Be safe. Be careful. Be strong.

I think it would be good to get some women in charge of the countries that have nuclear weapons. Women talk to each other. Women can be reasonable. Enough with the macho men and swinging dicks.

Hello from Berlin where a few hundred Americans are outside the embassy, currently reading aloud from the Declaration of Independence. #nokings

The true meaning of MAGA:

Two phrases that need to be retired: “We are better than this.” (We’re not.) The U.S. president is “the leader of the free world.” (He’s not.)

Chicago police department accompany protesters -not escalating protests - yesterday and the day before as Americans chant, “No walls, no registry, no white supremacy.” Thank you Chicago. BTW: MAGA are always talking shit about Chicago. They are wrong about everything.👇

“The only good orange monarch is a butterfly” One of the best signs I’ve seen 🤣 #3E #nokings

Happy 250th birthday to U.S. Army! 🇺🇸 The brave men and women of our Army are the real heroes we should be celebrating. Not a wannabe king who throws himself a $40 million birthday parade.

Hands off our Vets

Speak truth to lies!!!

Senator Padilla was driven violently to his knees–as if made to kneel before the authority of the executive–because the administration called his questions “disrespectful”. This should offend not just the other 99 Senators. It should offend the conscience of this country.

We finally know what the last straw for Rand is. He won’t get to be picked last to partner up for the wheelbarrow races. He’s still cool with all the fucking over the 99% and violating the constitution stuff though

Vaccines are scientifically proven to save lives

Don’t you dare fucking spit on them. But if one votes orange, assaulting them is pardonable

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work. You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules. Get your lies straight.

UM THIS! Who else

Just to be clear; access to quality healthcare, education, clean water and air, and books are not communism or fascism. Military parades, deploying the military against citizens exercising their constitutional rights to assemble, protest and express dissent are communism and fascism.

The US Marines being deployed on US soil against US citizens. Let that sink in

Remember when there was a REAL insurrection...and Trump did NOTHING?

This 👇👇

2,000 National Guardsmen in L.A.? Trump isn’t sending aid...he’s sending a message: compliance at gunpoint. Deploying soldiers to our own streets like enemies of the state? This isn’t leadership. It’s authoritarian theater. And we should be furious.

ATTN: If you’re a member of the National Guard or you work for ICE and you’re asked to violate the law or your oath, contact Whistleblower Aid to safely, securely, and legally blow the whistle. You can support Whistleblower Aid HERE: whistlebloweraid.org/beans

First they illegally deport citizens. Then they unleash ICE to terrorize communities. Now they’ve got the National Guard in L.A. to silence protestors. This ain’t about law and order. This is what authoritarianism looks like.

A video explaining the terms about federalization of the Guard, the difference between the Guard, Reserves, and Active Duty, and when the guard or active duty can engage in law enforcement. Hint: the guard as activated in Calif cannot. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/video-expl...

Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there. What an unbelievable asshole.

Wellman: When I served in Iraq.. I heard about how Saddam Hussein divided them. Different sects fought each other. But you know -- Saddam and his family sat laughing at all of them. They divided them against each other and kept their power for 35 years. Does this sound familiar to anybody?

By the way a military parade when we’re not celebrating a war victory is something a dude who never served would do.

Please take the time to read, listen, and share this today. Share it via Bluesky or where you can. Spread it via word of mouth. THIS is just one small impact this bill would have. The ability for those to receive services and work in the community would be gone. We cant stand for this

The current White House is a consistent persuasion for women not want more children

Thread: I always thought that my mother raising me to be “colorblind” was positive. But after the murder of George Floyd is I realized that although it taught me that all humans are equal, it didn’t teach me to realize that POC did not experience society the way that I did.

They’ve got some science courses, too!!! But maybe we should concentrate on the government stuff first.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.
