TONIGHT: at 7 PM ET: KNOW YOUR RIGHTS training for the upcoming NO KINGS events this Saturday: act.aclu.org/a/2025-kyr-t...

“The whole world is watching.” — U.S. Navy Veteran Trump is sending Troops into American streets not to protect people—but to provoke a crisis he can stomp out for show. This isn’t strength. It’s authoritarianism in real time.

I didn’t think it was possible to love Simone Biles any more than I already do, but here we are!

This Saturday, 6/14, FUN members will be participating in “No Kings” mass protests + actions across the country. We’re standing together against abuses of power, cruelty, and corruption to remind the president + his enablers: America has No King! More info:

Hypocrisy. Leave it to Leavitt.

An AI-related provision in the “Big Beautiful Bill” could restrict state-level legislation of energy-hungry data centers—and is raising bipartisan objections across the US. www.wired.com/story/a-poli...

We SEE you. We STAND with you. We LOVE you. ❤️ FUCK ICE!

the news is saying that trump plans to increase military spending, give tax cuts for the rich, and slash spending for the poor. is this true? i've never heard of a republican doing this before

Durbin to Bhattacharya: "I can't understand it. I disagree w/ this admin on so many things. But this is the one that really gets to me personally. To think this nation would walk away from medical research. For God's sake...cancer, your budget requests a 38% cut to the National Cancer Institute"

Speaking as a veteran to current service members: We swore an oath to protect this country "against all enemies, foreign and domestic" You have a hard choice to make. No one wants to make a choice like this. I hope you can find the strength and courage to make the right one

We have a damn heroin addict with a worm in his brain running shit! What could go wrong? I'm starting to think they have a plan to kill people!!!! 😳

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

LAPD when they think no one’s looking

There's this horrible scene, and so far, two journalists - a British man, and an Australian woman, have been hit by "less lethal" rounds. Masked people smashing car windows and dragging people out of cars and putting them in unmarked vehicles - people don't want to live like this.

The Gestapo taking direct aim..... at an Australian reporter. This is a direct threat to our democracy and our constitutional freedoms. #FreedomToDissent

A real life American Hero... not hiding behind a mask. I bet soon we will know his name. We salute you brother for your civil courage and the eloquence.

Donald Trump is causing harm and chaos to distract us from the Senate debating his disastrous "Big Ugly Bill" that rips away healthcare for 16 million Americans. We need to oppose these actions & ensure that people have access to Medicaid and food assistance.

If ICE were acting entirely within the law and maintaining good conditions in all its facilities, they would not be turning Congresspeople away. But they clearly aren't. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/08/n...

At no point in this entire article of 16 paragraphs does ABC mention that another cop killed this cop by shooting her in the back. Nor does it mention the name of the cop who killed this cop. Nor does it mention that the civilians involved never fired at them. ABC might as well be state media.

If you've never heard of marine heat waves, now is the time to pay attention. Driven by climate change, these increasingly frequent and extreme ocean temperature events, like “the Blob” in the North Pacific, are devastating marine life, disrupting fisheries, and impacting weather patterns. 🌊

With the $45 million being spent on the president's parade here’s what that money could do for veterans instead: House 3k veterans for an entire year in transitional housing Provide full PTSD treatment for 3.75k veterans for a year Deliver job training to 9k veterans through 12-week programs

Two babies have died from whooping cough in Kentucky. Neither they nor their parents had been vaccinated. The current whooping cough outbreak in the U.S. hasn’t grabbed the media spotlight as much as measles has, but it’s important to update your vaccination if you’re going to be around babies.

JUST IN: Proud Boys leaders granted clemency by Trump are suing the federal government for $100 million. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

There it is. Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) says Republicans’ next goal is to kick seniors off Social Security: “Get off of Social Security. Get back into the workforce.”

note that this completely inverts the public justification for the deportation scheme. they claim they’re deporting criminals, but they deported Kilmar without knowledge of a crime, and now that they supposedly found one they’re bringing him BACK.

Trump insisted to administration officials that a military parade in D.C. take place on his birthday, according to two sources. Several advisors and aides have privately referred to the event as “Donald Trump’s birthday parade.” Read: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Contrary to claims made by its proponents, the mass deportations' components of the Big Beautiful Bill will not improve its CBO score. Indeed, it will make it much worse. Accounting for lost net revenue from immigrants adds nearly $1 trillion in additional cost.

Yesterday German Chancellor, Friedrich Merz presented Donald Trump with his grandfather's birth certificate (who was born in Germany). This is some world-class trolling – reminding the entire world from the Oval Office, that he who is kidnapping and trafficking immigrants is himself an immigrant.

I love this. Master class

$12 million of already purchased supplies to prevent and treat AIDS are sitting in Belgium and the UAE while the administration decides whether to allow organizations and governments to distribute them or to spend hundreds of thousands more taxpayer dollars to destroy them. wapo.st/43F35LC #USAID

A reminder that trump has sent $0 to LA to rebuild after the fire but is spending at least $45 million on his birthday parade.

🏆 I love LA.

Man, we are bad at this. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
