How about #NEVERTARGET

S.m.d.h. 😒 LOSERS! 🙄

Today, the House GOP censured me for speaking out for the American people against @POTUS’s plan to cut Medicaid. I accept the consequences of my actions, but I refuse to stay silent in the face of injustice. #WeShallOvercome x.com/repalgreen/s...

Or anyone else without a medical degree in INFECTIOUS diseases

Signs. Of. Life. Protest outside Treasury Dept. tonight.

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

This is a great idea. Do you know anyone in Congress you can talk to?

YOU have one job today!!! Start calling and do not stop! Tell them NO TO KENNEDY. PATEL. TULSI!!

Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?

"What's the point of being in Congress if you don't have the power of the purse?" Former NJ Rep. Tom P. Malinowski joins Jen Rubin to discuss the unprecedented handover of the Treasury and Americans’ data to Musk and “DOGE.”

“What makes this even more agonizing is that Marco Rubio, of all people, knows our pain firsthand. He knows exactly what we’re fleeing — the brutal dictatorship of Maduro.” Marco abandoned any principles he may have had a long time ago. This is heartbreaking. The 305 is going to lose good people.

The US Secretary of Homeland Security is banned from ~20% of the state that she lives in. Let that sink in.

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

Just want to take a moment to thank all of you amazing followers who believe in reality, reason, logic, sanity, intelligence, education, science and the truth. Unity is our strength 😁 Have a godless day, my friends 😇

I’m telling everyone: Do not open the door or say a word unless you’re expecting someone and know exactly who it is. Know your rights. Pass these around…

Speaking of healthcare. Let's make @bsky.app the platform that fights misinformation. Some great follows are @drsusanoliver.bsky.social @jsm2334.bsky.social @therealtruther.bsky.social Let's get them more followers and engagement than other platforms and let health science accounts find a home

If you see a headline like this amplify the media source. This should have been the headline everywhere. The Mainstream Media is failing us so lift up independent journalists! Trump should have been attacked in the press daily for being a convicted felon & rapist. crooksandliars.com/2025/01/sena...

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

This is one plan There are many more We know who the co-conspirators are He cannot do it alone

Right out of the gate they are detaining U.S. citizens and saying their “papers”are fake. It was always a lie.

House Dems who’ve asked Garland to do whatever it takes to release Smith’s final report on the classified docs case even if he has to drop charges against co-defendants: Jamie Raskin Dan Goldman Jerry Nadler Steve Cohen Zoe Lofgren Pramila Jayapal Henry Johnson Eric Swalwell Ted Lieu J.L Correa

BTW He's 93 years old. He served in the military and worked for the local government for over 40+ years. This medication is the difference of life or death for him. It would cost him $900 out-of-pocket per month = $10.8K annually when it cost him $0 in 2024.

Curious what everyone thinks is the best way to have a positive or any impact on the country, during the first 30 days of the new administration.

Immigrants are taking all the best jobs.

🚨 DeSantis wants a special session to rush thru this proposal to effectively END citizen-led constitutional amendments in Florida for good. www.tampabay.com/news/florida... It could be law in less than 10 days w/out public pressure in opposition. Contact your elected reps dos.fl.gov/elections/co...

Today’s anniversary of Roe v. Wade painfully reminds us that the Captured Supreme Court can (and will) shred the fundamental rights Americans have relied upon for decades.

If she can do it, we can all do it.

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

Before the election, I warned that Trump would pardon all of the Jan. 6 defendants and some of them would form the core of a new rightwing paramilitary organization loyal to Trump. At the time, people dismissed me as alarmist. I stand by that prediction.
