My most naive take is that it’s weird how many awful people there are and how many things they’re in charge of

Ooof! That’s the post. #DemVoice1

Gonna be real with you, this feels like an advertisement for spiritual death

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today. This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.

Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

Calm down, folks, it was just an attempted assassination of a Jewish Democratic governor and his family on the first night of Passover, it’s not like somebody spray painted a dick on a Cybertruck.

I'm not saying that New Yorkers are weak-kneed cowards, but I am saying that Massachusetts has set the national example for how to treat tyrants since 1775.

Bring back *everyone* who was sent from the U.S. to CECOT in El Salvador. *No one* should be sent there. ALL their rights were violated. ALL of them should come home.

What we're seeing at #handsoff protests nationwide today and what we saw at the ballot box on Tuesday are not unrelated. The public is furious. It will not be silenced. And those who side with Trump and Musk—or refuse to fight back—will be swept out of office.

Do it! Vote! Rebel Spirit is extra excellent, Akilah Hughes deserves all the flowers, and I think a biscuit would be an incredible mascot.

"So I confess that I have been imperfect, I confess that I have been inadequate to the moment, I confess that the Democratic Party has made *terrible* mistakes that have given lane to this demagogue." - @corybooker.com More of this, honestly, please. Acknowledge it. Please.

More than 4,200 people were killed from July to February in Haiti, and another 1,356 were injured. And where are the guns coming from? The U.S. Our guns are driving the violence that causes people to flee. The very people we are now trying to deport. #MomSky www.nbcnews.com/news/world/u...

And this historic assault on labor is nowhere to be found on *any* of the major newspapers' front pages today.

Trump's executive order tonight has illegally cancelled union contracts for 67% of the federal workforce & 75% of unionized federal employees — roughly 700,000 union workers This may be the single biggest attack on the labor movement in American history

In 1862, a Union soldier found cigars wrapped in a piece of paper in a field of clover. The paper was a copy of Confederate Gen. Lee's invasion orders. The Southern sloppiness helped the Union stop Lee at Antietam. It's unknown who lost the orders in the field, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.

Hamdan Ballal, one of the directors of "No Other Land," was beaten by Israeli settlers and then kidnapped by Israeli soldiers today. I bet not a single Trump official will say anything except to praise it. My words: newrepublic.com/post/193110/...

Where is the mainstream news media on all this? Is this even getting coverage in state/local press?

🚨 Guys Hayley needs help! 🚨 She doesn't post here much but her info is here if you don't want to go to twitter @friendsofbear.bsky.social

Few things make me livid when I see them online seeing parents proudly say they have no regrets after letting their child die of measles, a fully preventable disease, I lose it for a bit. That’s child neglect. CPS has taken Black kids for far less, and it’s infuriating to watch this go unchecked.

Sanders: We are going to bring legislation to the floor very shortly that says not a nickel more for Netanyahu

And that’s on that 😌

AOC is a better messenger than Karl Marx and I'm not just saying that because Karl Marx never followed me on bluesky.

An entire administration of 12-year-old boys trying to act tough. Read the statement below and then look at this dweeb.

When this piece was made last year, I thought it was, you know, pretty clever. Now, I think it might be one of the most important pieces of the decade.
