Appreciated what @timothysnyder.bsky.social said about non-violence on @maddow.msnbc.com [non-violence] isn't an absence, it's of presence. It's a way of being. (cont.)

The Posse Comitatus Act bars federal troops from participating in civilian law enforcement except when expressly authorized by law. This law embodies an American tradition that sees military interference in civilian affairs as a threat to both democracy and personal liberty.

The folks hollering about “family values” are out here tearing families apart with unlawful ICE raids, militarized police, & the weaponization of government. All while ripping away food & healthcare from working-class families. Are the family values in the room with us?

ICE is coming into places of work, schools and even homes, but they will not allow our elected representatives to enter their facilities.

This is so revealing, to the white supremacists in charge you only matter if you're "able-bodied" and working (unless you're an unborn fetus, then you matter more than the woman carrying you).

Eating disorders are among the deadliest mental health conditions & they often become chronic. Yet Trump’s HHS is cutting eating disorder research & the MAHA report doesn’t mention them. This isn’t just suppressing science - it’s a decision that will cost lives. www.statnews.com/2025/06/03/e...

Harming children is un-American. Yet the White House is spreading lies to justify defunding USAID—an organization that has saved over 22 million lives. Why lie about something so good? Lies don’t justify letting children starve! #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/ONWkGaqQ

Congress and the White House should be working to make the United States a safer, healthier place to live. Why are so many laws being pushed based on conspiracy theories and half-truths? Who's being helped and who's getting hurt? We deserve better. #TruthBrigade www.justsecurity.org/107087/track...

Trump and Republicans ran on pledge to lower prices and cut the deficit. And here we are....

I first heard @brendanvduke.bsky.social say this, but this isn't a case where we're all trying to tighten our belts to address the deficit. Instead, Rs are asking the poorest people in America to tighten their belts to make room for tax cuts that go to the rich - all while increasing the deficit.

We all want eligible people to receive healthcare, so why are Republicans focused on work requirements that nearly always result in eligible people losing coverage? We're stronger as a nation when everyone has access to healthcare. Demand better! #TruthBrigade

Republicans like to argue that we do not have a revenue problem but that is ignoring the history of how multiple tax cuts have worsen our fiscal outlook. The Moody’s rating downgrade is evidence chickens are coming home to roost. (1/2) www.cbpp.org/research/fed...

Laws should solve real problems—like better healthcare or financial protection. So why do so many lawmakers push laws based on disproven conspiracy theories? Let’s keep asking: Who benefits, and who’s left out when outrageous laws are proposed? Demand better! #TruthBrigade

The claim of pursuing a “balanced budget” sounds good… until you see the math. Trillions in tax cuts going to the rich – increasing the deficit - while slashing healthcare and Social Security. Who benefits from this? It doesn’t add up. #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/RBfaJToG

condemning many to death? isn’t that hyperbolic? it isn’t! the gop bill would cut over $700 billion in health coverage. with $700 billion less, 8 million people will lose their insurance. some of those people won’t be able to pay out of pocket. some of them will die because they can’t afford care.

CBP says that it will follow broader standards and remain bound by the Flores agreement, which requires that children be given sanitary quarters. The Trump administration has previously argued that the agreement does not require children be allowed to sleep or wash themselves with soap.
