Abortion was the hot button issue they start with to take away women’s rights. Now they just keep ratcheting it up until America is great again!

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

NYC went hard today. This is what democracy looks like!!!

This is one of the most important stories I’ve written. In the face of the destruction of our democracy, it’s about: - People who care for those in need - Those who’ve risked so much to get here to WORK - The reminder that the U.S. was founded as refuge This is Cafewal. #immigrantsmadeamerica

Shameful

⚡️FIGHT THE OLIGARCHY RALLY ⚡️ STARTING TOMORROW. Nevada. Arizona. Colorado. You, me, and Bernie. Dem and GOP districts. ❤️💙 See you there 💪🏽🌞

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

A US-born citizen was walking near Chicago in January. ICE snatched him off the street, handcuffed him, threw into a van. His wallet, which contained his ID, was confiscated. He was detained for 10 hours before being released without a record of what occurred. immigrantjustice.org/sites/defaul...

Telling Americans to “Shut Up About Egg Prices” is quite the message

when Elon Musk started recruiting for DOGE last November, he said the work would be “tedious” and “compensation is zero" now it turns out some DOGE operatives are earning six-figure salaries, one as high as $195,200, as much as a civil servant can legally make www.wired.com/story/doge-g...

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

I don't know who this guy is but he's absolute right.

Trudeau: I want to speak first directly to the American people… your government has chosen to do this to you. Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk. They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items…

If you want to eat the most expensive eggs you’ve ever had in your life, you should have backyard chickens. Don’t get me wrong, I love them and have raised them, but they are an expensive hobby.

There's been so much publicity about the now-Oscar-winning doc No Other Land being unable to find a U.S. distributor (which is appalling) that some people may not realize it's currently on 100 screens here. In Manhattan you can see it at Film Forum; in Brooklyn it's at Alamo Drafthouse.

No kings. No tyrants. Not now. Not ever.
