THIS!!!👇👇👇👇 And I loathe Tucker!😂

None of this would be happening if Kamala were president.

Don’t let your dogs swim in lakes if they have been treated with a topical flea treatment 🧪 www.newscientist.com/article/2482...

Told my wife about today's Supreme Court decision to punish my child for being who they are and she flashed a smile of defiance that could shatter glass. They haven't made us sad, they've made us angry, and we are ready to fight

The American gestapo.

Karen Bass: "It's felt in LA like we're part of a grand experiment. How far will the public tolerate the federal government intervening and seizing power from a governor? I think it's being tried out here."

My gov is good at this! ☺️

'Having a soft heart in a hard world is courage, not weakness.'

Hard to argue with that.

Padilla: I was forced to the ground, first on my knees and then flat on my chest. And as I was handcuffed and marched down a hallway repeatedly asking, why am I being detained? Not once did they tell me why. I pray you never have a moment like this

Rest of the world is obviously not taking the President of the US seriously or literally on tariffs or war. They believe him to be a corrupt, confused, easily manipulated, frail old man.

Not just unions, but a collective movement. Not just a movement, but a working class identity. Not just an identity, but a collective goal. Not just a goal, but a better future. A future for all of us! Love you 💖

@bradlander.bsky.social: "Donald Trump is coming to strike fear into immigrant families and just fear into cities. He's coming for LA, he's coming for New York, he's coming for other cities. And he's trying to both stoke fear and provoke conflict."

I don’t know anything about @bradlander.bsky.social. I don’t live in NYC. I have no personal stake in the election. But as a #disabled person, it’s heartening to see someone paying attention to stuff like this. The situation in this video is the rule, not the exception.

NO!! How can we dissent?

Thou shalt not arrest elected public officials for trying to speak for their constituents.

NEW: The Oklahoma Supreme Court ruled that a 2021 censorship law can't be used to ban teaching about race and gender in Oklahoma's higher education institutions. This is a win for academic freedom and the First Amendment.

EVERYONE should be calling this out. 👇

Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA) Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) Mayor Ras Baraka (D-Newark) Judge Hannah Dugan (WI) Controller Brad Lander (D-NYC) This is not normal. This is not okay. We cannot let them convince us that this is normal or okay.

I think this cannot be reposted enough!!

Brad Lander's wife, Meg Barnette: "This is not the way we deal with rule of law, this is not the way people are treated in the United States."   "I feel really rattled and scared, and my husband is a candidate for mayor, is an elected citywide official, is U.S. citizen."

New book drop…

“The best way to honor our parents' memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else." Beautiful statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman.

My kingdom to never have to read another post that says "this is a distraction from this other awful thing he's doing!" None of it is a distraction. He's insane.

Millions of Americans rely on enhanced subsidies to afford Obamacare premiums. Unless Congress acts, the enhancements will expire at the end of the year, causing premiums to rise by more than 75% on average. Here's what you need to know: kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

And thus, there goes my health coverage. 😢 All of you who voted for this… 🤬

I’m seeing a lot of people posting about how sick they are with a “summer flu” Main complaints? Fatigue, extremely sore throat, fever and loss of smell. It’s Covid. The Nimbus variant is here & appears to be more transmissible. It’s time to wear a respirator, clean the air & stay home when sick!

Still waiting to see the charges against all the business owners who are employing the people being deported for being here illegally.
