Fed up of this hypocrisy!

AOC: How can anyone possibly make an objective vote on healthcare, energy, or war when their personal wealth is tied up in pharmaceutical, oil and gas, or defense company stock?

Thanks for these delightful photos!

@warren.senate.gov: "State attorneys general have the same opportunity to investigate, dig in, get what the facts are. So for example, Letitia James, the NY attorney general, which has jurisdiction over the stock market and the trading that happens in NY, might decide she would take a look at this."

This is how tariffs work. ..and now I want Crab Rangoon.

What have we become? This is so awful!

Fighting the oligarchy with 36,000 new friends today. Thanks for pulling us together, Bernie.

A-men!

@booker.senate.gov: "For a guy who spends the weekend on his golf course and brags to the media about him winning a tournament while the struggling-- this is the kind of gross arrogance of a Marie Antoinette saying, "let them eat cake" ... Screw him for telling people to accept pain."

Sounds like the beginnings of a plan!

They are obviously slow learners

One of the striking things about the Abrego Garcia case is that would be trivially easy for the government to demand his return and give apologists an easy talking point: "Yes, sure, mistakes happen but see, they care about getting it right & doing it legally after all." But nope.

I agree. In a functioning democracy, we would already be in the midst of an impeachment trial.

Not for nothing, but how, exactly, is it legal to send people for *punishment* in a foreign prison (esp with no due process)? Were the funds being used for it appropriated for this purpose? I feel this has just become a thing no one questions

Mahmoud's case is a litmus test for the right to free speech in our country. This ruling jeopardizes dissent. Attacks on the First Amendment will not stop with student activists advocating for Palestinian rights. www.cbsnews.com/news/mahmoud...

We need to keep this egregious national security screw up in the public consciousness!

Each child deserves to reach their potential, and yet this Administration undermines special education programs that furnish children with disabilities with the tools to succeed. Parents deserve better than for these important programs to be shut off overnight.

Today, I stood with Jennifer Vasquez Sura. Her husband Kilmar Abrego GarcΓ­a, a lawful U.S. resident, father and union worker, was torn from his family and sent to a prison camp in El Salvador. No criminal record. No hearing. No proof. We're fighting to bring him back.

Loved this, β€œFREE” always tastes so good…

Completely agree

I love a woman who’s prepared! πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov :: you better not be playing cute with your language about stopping the SAVE Act. I hope you intend to VOTE NO ON CLOTURE, as opposed to what you did with the CR when you told us you'd vote no on the bill, but still voted YES on cloture. We are in no mood for games.

This is what RESISTANCE looks like! πŸ’™

For SHAME!

Yup!

We left this interview with Sen. Booker more inspired than ever. Listen now on the MeidasTouch Podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s... Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/1yBH...

Resharing the website and current stats as of now…

Oh, how I miss President Obama and competent government. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

If we ever get the chance again, Democrats must lay down a BOLD, PROGRESSIVE agenda to transform life for average Americans and cut red tape in order to implement it RAPIDLY!

Wow, such astute insight! Too bad Americans can’t see it

The courts *should* put an immediate and unequivocal halt to all use of the CECOT prison in El Salvador, with or without due process. They may not do that. But the *people* of the US still can. Don't lose of sight of this atrocity amidst the other outrages. Make this a key focus of resistance.

More Americans should probably be alarmed that their government wants them to die in poverty & misery & the right to rendition them if they won’t die quietly.

It’s true, Trump is handing Asia-Pacific hegemony to China for the next century.

Main stream media are part of the problem 😑

Mark your calendars people. Share far and wide. Let's double the turnout in every single fucking city. Tell your friends, your family, and anyone who will listen. There is no more fucking around.
