Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

This is how it’s done.

This is hope. This is the future. And this is why we fight—for this young man, for our children, for all that’s yet to come!

Today I honor the late great Congressman John R. Lewis on what would have been his 85th birthday. If folks know about my clapbacks, understand this is my version of “Good Trouble.”

The Trump curse strikes again. He couldn’t just stay out of it. First the KC Chiefs and now the US Hockey team. He’s on a roll.

The good news is i saved you 60 billion dollars. The bad news is that is a typo i saved you 600 dollars and also your plane is falling out of the sky

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

Crockett: He went from being the dork that was jumping around on stage to allegedly being this amazing genius that's gonna save a country he wasn't born in, and one that maybe he doesn't agree w/the idea of a democratic republic, considering the fact he may have been more on the side of apartheid.

It’s amazing to me that when Donnie calls himself a king, everyone listens. But when the Supreme Court crowned him king last year, crickets.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not a dictator. He is a champion of democracy, freedom and truth.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

It's not lost on me that the two Democratic electeds talking consistently to regular people right now are AOC and Jasmine Crockett. Dassit.

This Game of Thrones quote feels especially poignant: “Any man who must say 'I am the king' is no true king.”

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

I am part of the 25%. The lifestyle change is worth it. This is the way…

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

Meidas takes the #1 podcast spot, Trump’s DOJ is in chaos, Musk is dodging accountability, and MAGA chaos is hitting Social Security, Ukraine, and veterans. Protests are growing as the public grows angry. Don’t miss today’s bulletin!

First nuclear weapons management, now this. No one - Democrat or Republican - voted for this kind of incompetence.

Oh, wow! Mega congrats, @meidastouch.com!! 👏👏 www.newsweek.com/joe-rogan-de...

In a 4-3 ruling, the Wisconsin Supreme Court dismissed a right-wing legal challenge that sought to limit the authority of municipalities to designate early absentee voting locations and prevent future use of a mobile voting van deployed by the city of Racine during the 2022 election cycle.

It’s a conundrum. 🤷‍♂️

He’s not making up: news.bloomberglaw.com/banking-law/... Is this really what y’all voted for? 🫤 💰

They don't want to teach history so they can repeat it.

Maybe we should hold off on paying Congress until they actually do something to earn it?

Did You Know? The inventor of the bestselling Super Soaker was a Black man—and Hasbro tried to cheat him out of his royalties. In 2013, Lonnie Johnson, a nuclear engineer and former NASA scientist, won a $73 million settlement from Hasbro for underpaid royalties. Johnson holds over 80 patents.

white nationalist men are too emotional to be in charge

AOC clapped back at Tom Homan — More of this.

Tom Homan is afraid of AOC, and he should be. Bullies always crumble when people forcefully stand up to them. More of this, please

Whatever else emerges in time about the Delta crash in Canada, one thing is certain: the importance & amazing professionalism of flight attendants who safely evacuated the plane in a matter of seconds.

#MorningVibe Next time you enjoy a scoop, remember Augustus Jackson: The Father of Modern Ice Cream 🍦 Stay cool. #BlackMenMakeHistory #BlackHistoryMonth

Someone made a very impassioned post about people condemning Tesla over Elon making an argument that many smart, decent people work there and shouldn’t suffer because of him. Fuck that. I have friends who are Feds being smeared and terrorized. I give zero fucks about Elon’s employees.

Planes didn't crash when this guy ran things.
