Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

"It's deeper than a critique of journalists. You can say, 'Fine. 'Both sides.' The left is unhappy w/ how the media covers things.' But it’s a systemic problem. Our political institutions are uniquely unable to deal w/ the rise of what is now a far-right authoritarian party" — @mcopelov.bsky.social

Happy Juneteenth! Today commemorates the end of slavery in the U.S. It’s a day to celebrate Black strength, resiliency, and joy. But as Trump tries to reverse progress, we all need to recognize how his cruelty disproportionately impacts Black Americans. 1/

At least 12 million people ( 3.7% of US pop) took a stand against the Trump regime and fascism on Saturday. The next step is a national general strike and boycotts. When 3.5% of the whole population of a nation has begun to participate in resistance, success is inevitable. #3E #NoKings #StopICE

Who needs a king who steals from his own people and has mass murderers as friends?

This is how it’s done! 👊🏿👊🏾👊🏽👊🏼👊🏻

Good doggie

to be fair it is true—it is harder for liberals to have a nice brunch while ICE is doing raids in nearby neighborhoods than it would be with Kamala’s expansion of CBP into an independent branch of the US armed forces to permanently occupy the US-Mexico border like a colonial invasion force

The courage and wisdom of Ukrainians is an inspiration. The cowardice and stupidity of nations refusing to defend Western civilization from barbarian Muscovy is a humiliation.

“No Kings” demonstration, Ocean Beach, San Francisco

Weingarten: Their attacks on public education are relentless and why? Because they fear knowledge. Why do they fear teachers? They fear us because we teach critical thinking… their brand of greed, power, and privilege cannot survive in a democracy of diverse educated citizens

There is no such thing as an overreaction with what has now happened. This is the line in the sand. Every red hat who supports killing Americans is a traitor.

In a Gangster State, the dear leader wastes other people's money on military parades to broadcast his fake strength, attacks the legislative branch and destroys programs that benefit the people.

The revolution is full of 60-year-old women who love their trans kids.

Lawmakers in Congress should not be buying, trading, and owning individual stocks. Period. It’s long past time to BAN Congressional stock trading.

Holy crap! No Kings Philly.

AOC: "They have released chaos in LA by violently raiding & ripping apart peaceful public spaces, and now they are tackling & arresting US sitting members of Congress, while going on the record & lying about what happened.

I, like many of you, am not only devastated but furious at the assassination of two Minnesota lawmakers this morning. This isn’t some isolated tragedy. It’s extremism, it’s fascist violence, and we have to treat it that way. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Walz announces that Rep. Melissa Hortman is dead as a result of a "politically motivated assassination"

Boebert: What we’re seeing in LA is an insurrection Pritzker: You don’t know understand what insurrection is. It is outrageous that you are asking that when you are the one condoning the pardoning of people that attacked police.
