When Andrew Tate was charged with rape and human trafficking, Trump intervened to fly him back to the US. When a working-class father of a disabled 5-year-old child was wrongfully deported and charged with NO crime, Trump refuses to lift a finger.

This is starting to look like 1789 where 100s of thousands take to the streets while the wannabe king eats a million dollar banquet. #Handsoff

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

What if every #American who abhors #DOGE raises withholding exemptions to a huge number? If you’re worried about penalties, you can pay estimated taxes in April (or better yet, June) once the #republicans hear us.

When @jdvance1.bsky.social says “professors are the enemy,” he’s echoing Pol Pot and we know how that turned out.

The Constitution says government must "promote the general welfare." The #Republicans have both houses of #Congress and could pass laws. They are fully complicit in using underhanded methods to dismantle the parts of government that are designed to help ordinary citizens.

One thing before tomorrow: Use your local libraries. Get your card. Borrow books, manga, films, audios, ebooks. Recommend titles for purchase (usually online). Attend promoted activities. Fill out those "How are we doing?" questionnaires. Tell your kids that libraries are good. They are. 📚

O felon! Our Felon, our fearful trip’s begun. The ship has now begun to list, The prize we sought is done. The port recedes, the bells grow dim, With billionaires exulting, While common folks begin to see their goals become more daunting.

Nothing says #Trump inauguration like the billionaires sitting comfortably indoors while his grass roots supporters are left out in the cold. Wonder when his minions will catch on?
