Oralè Resisters Happy Easter Republicans! #HappyEasterGOP #USDemocracy

Person, man, camera, tv.

Not to split hairs or anything but I fail to see the difference between sending someone to a prison to be abused until death and sending someone to a concentration camp to be abused until death.

If I had to reregister to vote, post SAVE Act, I'd need: a $25 copy of my birth certificate, a $5 copy of my name change, a $3 copy of my marriage license, and an $89 drivers license. OR a $165 passport. Not only is it a poll tax, it's also a pink tax.

An autistic, nonverbal teenage boy who was shot repeatedly by Idaho police from the other side of a chain link fence while he was holding a knife died Saturday after being removed from life support, his family said.

Do not obey

Your rights are not protected by the paper they are written on, they are protected by the strength of your resistance. Join a protest near you. #3E #fiftyfiftyone

Canada and Japan are responsible for the big back pedal on tariffs. It was a genius move by Carney and it will get him elected PM in 16 days. #markcarneyforPM #voteliberal

Far-right politician Matt Gaetz has endorsed Pierre Poilievre A vote for Poilievre is a vote for Trump

The so-called SAVE Act—a naked Republican voter suppression bill—has been passed by the House. “It’s the most extraordinary attack on voting rights in American history. This is an attempt to destroy American democracy as we know it.” Stop it in the Senate. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/the...

#ProudBlue #MomSky We have taken an even deeper step into fascism. Nazi Noem has created a task force to scour the social media of foreign students. A critic called the review a return to “McCarthyism.” And they call us Communists. 😳 www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

#ProudBlue These are the Dems that voted in favor of the Save Act. If you’re their constituents, make sure they catch hell!

69M married women could lose their voting rights if the SAVE Act is passed. Transgender individuals too. Why? Absent a valid passport, you must present a birth certificate *with the same name as your registration* to be registered. This is insane! Hands Off Her Vote

It's long past time to ban insider trading in Congress.

What happened today reeks of insider trading. Trump’s tweet wasn’t random—it was a signal. Someone cashed in, and the public deserves to know who and how much. Follow. The. Money. “This entire White House is one giant grift.” —Sen. @chrismurphyct.bsky.social shining a spotlight on it! 🔥

Under a lawless government run by thugs we are all just an administrative “error” away from being seized and shipped to a foreign concentration camp.

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

ELECTION RESULT: A team of city council members in Rolla, Missouri, have been pushing anti-LGTB policies, including a ban on drag shows and book censorship. Voters just ousted all three of these city councilors who were running for reelection, backing candidates backed by a local LGBT group.

Sending anyone from this country to a foreign gulag, particularly without a court hearing, should rightfully end a presidency. Full stop.

Does that line work for international calls? Or, better yet, does that line work cork for collect calls from other countries? Asking for a friend.

We often look back on the seminal moments in our history and wonder "What would I have done?" This is our moment. This is our time. We must stand up. We must speak out. We must do everything we can to stop a President who has every intention of destroying our democracy.

President Trump’s tariffs are rupturing the global economy, and seniors are rightfully worried about their savings. My government will protect your retirement by reducing the minimum RRIF withdrawal amount by 25% and increasing the GIS by 5%, tax-free — for a year. liberal.ca/mark-carneys...

1,600 marches 5.2 million people NOT ONE TIKI TORCH @altnps.bsky.social #handsoff

It’s only going to get worse, folks.

I hope that those that protested this past week continue to do so, regardless of whether Tariffs stay or go. Regardless of whether your investments recover slightly. The drop in your 401K may have brought you out, but please stay for the human rights.

The financial advisor down the hall from me has all his lights off and isn’t answering his phone, but I know he’s in there.

Who benefits from an economic crisis? Trump does. He declares an economic emergency—then manufactures one—which allows him to expand his power. Under the National Emergencies Act (NEA), the president can unlock more than 120 special statutory powers. No wonder he was just out golfing—crisis pays.

The Emperor has no clothes.

“Our client, who was in the middle of seeking asylum, just disappeared.” Lindsay Toczylowski represents 31-year-old Andry, a gay makeup artist from Venezuela who was flown to a notorious prison by the Trump administration after seeking asylum in the U.S. MORE: www.cbsnews.com/news/venezue...

I don’t even know what to say here. We’re talking about a generational posting crashout. Lmfao NOW you’re concerned about conflicts of interest.

If you don’t think that at some point he’s going to show more interest in the 5,044 nuclear weapons he controls, you’re as deluded as the people who thought he’d never tank the stock market and the economy.
