To be effective, our opposition to today's abuses must run alongside a clear picture of what we are actually for - and how everyday life could be better with different leadership.

When?! 👇

Orlando City Commissioner Tony Ortiz just switched from Republican to Democratic. “The Republican Party is not the party I signed up with... The marginalization of Latinos and immigrants—many of whom have helped build this country—is not leadership. It’s fear-based politics.”

American Theater in Canton, NY: where the marquee has more backbone than a lot of CEOs right now.

I hope the next Pope is from the Far East or Africa, just to see the felon's reaction! It would be great seeing the felon kiss a Black man's ring!

I’m confused. Not only did Trump say he would end the Ukraine Russia war with a single phone call on day one, he also said no wars start under his phenomenal leadership – so this must be a joke right? I mean Trump brings world peace, just by farting and slamming a Diet Coke right?

HUNT: Is Rubio still working on the Abrego Garcia case? TAMMY BRUCE: I'm not going to speak to his work in detail HUNT: You're the spokesperson for the State Department!

Bravo, young man! www.comicsands.com/autistic-boy...

Donald Trump has no idea what a gallon of gas costs.

Marco Rubio, the politician Trump once dubbed “little Marco,” has become the president’s go-to guy for big roles in the administration. But Democrats are casting doubt on whether it is possible for Rubio — or anyone — to balance all of those jobs.

Yes, they will keep lying and saying “it’s the immigrants”..

This should really be all anyone needs to know. He only cares about giant corporations and the oligarchs that fund him. Everyone else? Good luck.

"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Given that most, if not all MAGA merch is made in China, I'll be really curious to see what happens to their pricing and availability 😁

WATCH: Trump pretends to be clueless about his crypto scheme and says “I’m not profiting from anything” 🤔🤥

🔥 “There’s something wrong in this country… everything has gone up but wages… how many yachts and houses does one person need? — They want us to stay poor, stay hidden, and die silently.” 🇺🇸 #FightTheOligarchy H/T @violadavis.bsky.social

Some expected. Some surprises. www.newsweek.com/donald-trump...

Duckworth on if she's open to voting to confirm Mike Waltz: "I think everybody on that Signal chain needs to be fired ... he's failing up ... I'm not open to voting for him, no, because he's already demonstrated he's incapable of doing the most basic thing, which is handling classified information."

Bernie: You have an obscenity in the wealthiest guy in the world running all over DC firing thousands of dedicated federal employees. At a time when the Social Security Administration doesn't have enough employees right now to service the seniors, they want to discharge thousands of people at SSA.

if you want to guide your teen son in the right direction, just give him a guitar or a drum kit, clean out your garage, and let him form a punk band that practices in there every night. more garage punk bands, less listening to people who tell you that you are bad

A free press isn’t optional, it’s integral to our democracy. Journalists uncover the truth, expose corruption, and give a voice to the voiceless. Attacks on the press are on the rise and we must protect them, because when we defend them, we defend democracy. #WorldPressFreedomDay

We must fight to save PBS and NPR.

Pink Floyd at Pompeii. New Floyd vinyl is always a celebration, even more so for this landmark recording. It’s a really nice package, the gatefold is beautifully done. The poster is very nice. 1st spin so can’t speak to the press yet. #vinyl #nowspinning #PinkFloydAtPompeii #vinylsky

Your School House Rock moment...🤔

This isn't hypothetical. The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will direct federal health agencies to explore potential new treatments for measles as the U.S. faces its largest outbreak in 25 years. Experts fear the decision could have grave consequences, as studies show the existing vaccine is 97% effective in preventing infection.

Only way to do it if you love your kid.

Dr. Anthony Fauci urges Americans not to accept "Normalization of Untruths".

Inhumane

The man who has never accepted responsibility, apologized, or admitted a mistake in his entire life isn’t about to start now.

The Narcan Program Has Saved Thousands Of Lives! This Is Barbaric!

The White House was not happy after it was reported on Tuesday that retail giant Amazon will display tariff-based cost increases next to the price of products on their website, calling the decision “a hostile and political act by Amazon.”

100 days into this presidency, Americans are paying the price - higher prices, crashing retirement accounts, and broken promises. But the American people are turning, thanks to your voices. Keep it up. It's up to us to demand something better.
