Everything Scott Bessent said today was wrong. Our GDP growth has slowed, job numbers are down, and the big beautiful bill will raise the deficit by trillions. We are worse off today than we were last year, and while Bessent says it’s a distraction, Americans don’t just see—they feel—the truth.

Large section of voters sitting at home on elections is the reason why we are in this mess.

250 years ago, Americans rejected the rule of a mad king. In two days, we’re taking to the streets again to say NO KINGS. 2,000 peaceful protests are planned in small towns and major cities across the country. Join your community on Saturday for #NoKings Day: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

I'm attending Indivisible Chicago's event, “No Kings Rally and March” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/indivisiblec...

I don’t know how else to explain this…if you’re cheering for someone else’s rights to be taken away, you’re cheering for your own to disappear too. This isn’t cake. You don’t get more by refusing to share. Either everyone has rights, or no one really does. Thats it. It’s simple.

On 6/12, DHS Sec’y Kristi Noem said “We are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.” This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.

WTF was SCOTUS thinking? It's all coming home to roost. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23p...

Listening to the asshole @SpeakerJohnson just blame Senator Padilla makes a few things clear. 1st - He uses God and religion to justify lying. 2nd - IT IS TIME FOR A NATIONAL STRIKE. AMERICANS SHOULD CALL IN SICK AND SHOULD STOP SPENDING MONEY ON ANYTHING BUT NECESSITIES.

No Sir, we're not protesting "because we hate our country." We just hate what YOU are doing to it. We are protesting to keep a government OF the people, BY the people, FOR the people… Simple as that. 😎✨

I’ll bet $5 that 90%of the Ice agents wearing a mask pissed and moaned during the height of Covid saying it was oppressive.

Fox news gives them a platform to spread LIES to the who uneducated or to lazy to question anything till it affects them personally and then they will blame Biden!

Seeing RFK Jr.’s selections to replace the qualified scientists that he fired from ACIP, I very much doubt that the U.S. will have ready access to COVID19 and flu vaccines for 2025. And it could be even worse than that. Bill Cassidy is to blame for voting to confirm RFK Jr. He’s a disgrace.

Just a reminder that Donald Trump refused to call in the National Guard on January 6th when violent insurrectionists were literally storming our Capitol building to overturn an election that he lost

Hey @schumer.senate.gov, Is the country at enough of a crisis for you yet?

Thank you Oprah for this collosal dipshit. www.cnn.com/2025/06/09/m...

We're walking right into it. No one appears to have any idea how to stop it. We know where it's headed. Martial law. The end of democracy. No more elections. A waking nightmare. I promise to amplify anyone offering legal, workable solutions. I haven't found any yet. And the left is leaderless.

The only people complaining about Bluesky are corporate media opinion columnists who have a 200,000 followers on X and 800 here. “Please go back to X!” No, fuck you lol.

Speak Truth.......

Psst... Gov. Pritzker: We could reduce tax revenue needed to fix Chicagoland's $771M transit budget gap by using money from highway trust fund, still funding a normal amount of road work. IL AFL-CIO could you support that? @govpritzker.illinois.gov @ilaflcio.bsky.social @rtachicago.bsky.social
