Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

Anecdotal evidence - a friend from the UK decided not to apply for a faculty position in Canada because it was too close to the United States

Honestly I'm still not over the Department of Defense removing references to the Enola Gay from their website because it contains the word "Gay." These jabronis have done much more harmful things, but that's the one that's stuck in my craw for being so deeply and profoundly stupid.

I absolutely agree with this! It’s so sad that millions don’t. #Pinks

While the proposed cuts to our healthcare in the Felon’s horrific budget bill would be devastating, what’s not being discussed enough is the fact that it would take power away from Congress and give it to him. Practically free reign to do anything, anytime. The Senate needs to say NO! #ProudBlue

🤣🤣

OTTAWA – A humanitarian group says it’s holding back 17 trucks filled with Canadian aid meant for desperate Palestinians in Gaza, citing what it calls a dangerous aid distribution system implemented by Israel.

Dan Bongino has a nice cry on Fox & Friends: "I gave up everything for this. I mean, my wife is struggling... I stare at these 4 walls all day in DC, you know, by myself, divorced from my wife. Not divorced, but I mean, separated. And it's hard." (Note that Brian Kilmeade has to encourage him lol)

Adding ❌👑 to your handle is a simple fun free little way to promote No Kings Day in the lead up to what is shaping up to be largest pro-democracy protest of the year (so far). I don't want to blow this out of proportion, but it might literally save our republic. nokings.org

One might have thought that last November, when Missourians voted to enshrine “reproductive freedom" in the state constitution, that would have been the end of the conversation. Alas, the Missouri Supreme Court doesn’t seem to be inclined to listen. This week, the court halted abortions.

‘If you don’t show some decorum when objecting to genocide, someone might be hurt’ is a really fucked up thing to say.

Here’s the thing, if they are picking up folks working in the country illegally, I’m going to need to see some white guys also being arrested for employing people working illegally in the country. Otherwise, it’s just racism.

x.com/essenviews/s... Look at these lists. We are supposed to be living in the ‘land of the free’ and not in the ‘land of the fearful.’ Our government is failing us!

The MAGA-verse is outraged after a federal judge blocked the Trump administration from revoking Harvard University's ability to enroll foreign students.

An outdated Meta AI model was apparently at the center of the Department of Government Efficiency's initial ploy to purge parts of the federal government.

The UK, France and Canada have warned they could take concrete action if it doesn’t stop its Gaza offensive.

14 million Americans will lose health care. Millions could lose access to food assistance. So Trump and Republicans can deliver tax cuts to billionaires.

Texans, flee the nanny state and come up north to enjoy the land of the free. www.texastribune.org/2025/05/21/t...

Contrary to the belief of Netanyahu, the genocidal fucking monster. One can know Israel is absolutely in the wrong and has been and still not be pro Hamas.

Have they been taking advice from Democratic strategist or something?

Wild camping on Dartmoor is legal, supreme court rules

Maga Catholics are on a collision course with Leo XIV. They have good reason to fear him | Julian Coman

Musk lashes out at an interviewer for pressing him on DOGE, then attacks Bill Gates. He’s definitely losing it. He also claims Tesla sales are “rebounding,” but the numbers say otherwise. The boycott of Tesla is working.

If you’ve ever taken the oath to uphold the Constitution, this is the time to live up to it.

I want to see it!

Stop insulting the American public & destroying constitutional rights! "This decision will let more CRIMINALS pour into our Country, doing great harm to our cherished American public”. "The Supreme Court is not allowing me to do what I was elected to do." www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

So... the 8646 people are mad that someone said 8647?

My decoder ring finally paid off!

This is a full out attack upon the working poor. Shameful. Wrong. Bad for our country.

Random reminder that banning members of Congress from trading stock is a total no brainer. They can use privileged information to make money on the stock market, while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake — it’s legalized corruption.

Springsteen/Swift anti-fascist benefit concert would be awesome. Turnstile could open and Kendrick Lamar could close it out with Gaga and Green Day. 🤔 🤘 🎸 ⚡️

When they accidentally tell the truth... (Pt. 2) (also try to avoid swimming in sewage)

Fuck Trump the Fascist SCUMBAG and his cronies. A very good sign just taking too long to get a definitive decision. Meanwhile people are being detained without due process and they are ramping up to detain lots more. #donald #trump #news #president #Fascist #scumbag www.npr.org/2025/05/16/g...

"He won't stop until the entire country has been remade in his image. He won't stop until the Constitution is shredded and the Bill of Rights is burned to ash. We are looking at the death of democracy." - Bernie Sanders
