🚨 There’s a lot of horrific news out of Washington right now—but you might have missed this: Senate Republicans just introduced a plan to sell off 120 million acres of our public lands. Let me break down what’s in the bill and why it’s a full-scale land grab. 🧵

Hey, Mike. As someone whose wife barely survived an assassination attempt, let me tell you: Your joke isn't funny and you have an entire state to apologize to.

We are witnessing an epidemic of the abuse of the power of the federal government, including the criminal system, to target and intimidate Democrats and their supporters. Trump will escalate this until people stand up to him. It is time we all have the courage to peacefully stand up and say enough!

This is not normal. A sitting president refusing to call the governor of a state after two elected officials were shot, one fatally, is beyond words. A typical president, regardless of politics, would pick up the phone. Offer condolences.

Upon his return to the White House in January, Trump revoked Biden’s executive order that pushed federal agencies to help register voters. Advocates say the move erases progress and sets back voter registration efforts across the country. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/how...

Men impersonating police shooting Democratic lawmakers. Men impersonating ICE kidnapping women & children. Immigration “officers” storming a church.“The whole country is our property.” When is enough enough?

okay so we've got -- DHS goons handcuffing a U.S. Senator -- Marines in LA violating posse comitatus -- political assassinations in MN And that's just, like, the last couple of days

THIS!!!

Shooters were dressed like law enforcement and this is exactly why I’m pissed about ice officers wearing masks, driving unmarked cars and not being identifiable when they terrorize communities

WE THE PEOPLE!!!

“If this is how this administration responds to a senator with a question . . . you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community . . We will hold this administration accountable.” -Sen. Alex Padilla open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

A Minnesota state representative and her husband were just shot and killed, and a state senator and his wife were shot and wounded in an "act of targeted political violence" and what is the violence-stoking so-called “president” focused on? A fucking vanity parade.

RFK Jr. is reportedly going to forbid government scientists from publishing in the world’s most respected medical journals — the Lancet, The New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, etc. It’s going to take decades to repair the damage done by this administration.

They received presidential pardons for this ‘message’ and it wasn’t seashells on a beach.

Moody’s just downgraded the US’s credit rating to reflect debt and political dysfunction. A terrible sign. www.reuters.com/markets/us/m...

This. 1000x this.

🔥 DAMN! — @benniegthompson to @kristinoem: “I’m glad you found time among your many photo ops and costume changes to testify.”

She’s not wrong

Nooooooo!!!!! She's the best!!!!

MURPHY: Do you believe that you can detain and deport a legal permanent resident for expressing a political opinion that the administration disagrees with? NOEM: The determination you're asking for is based on things that you are determining that the secretary of state has considered and evaluated

This is a spectacular display of incompetence.

This isn't hypothetical. The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

Courts delivered wins for Pennsylvania voters Friday in two different right-wing disenfranchisement efforts.🥳 www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Trump is threatening to revoke Harvard’s tax exempt status because the university refused to cave to his demands. Why is he so hell-bent on attacking universities? Because an educated and informed citizenry has always been the biggest threat to a dictator's power.

📌Hold on, goddammit: If tariffs are so good for our economy, why doesn't the White House want us to see what they are actually costing us??????

The most unpopular, unsuccessful president at the 100 day mark in American history.

In case you missed it, wanting to know what you’re paying for is now considered “political and hostile”.

There it is, in a nutshell.
