We didn’t vote for our money to be spent on this modern day concentration camp bullshit.

For every semi-endorsement of vaccines, the Health and Human Services secretary seems to add several more nonsensical statements to muddy the waters.

With each new revelation my heart grows heavier

Zero. Zero days before he exempted phones, chips, computers and other tech.

AOC is accusing Trump of manipulating the market to insiders' benefit. Elizabeth Warren has called for an investigation into Trump’s volatile change of course and Adam Schiff warned against the "dangerous opportunities for insider trading.”

The irony of the tRump regime deporting these so called ‘criminals’ to foreign gulags for good, is that the president himself has been charged with far worse crimes, from sexual abuse to fraud, espionage and insurrection - and yet he talks about his gang like they’re saints. Might HE ‘self-deport’?

DOGE, even without Elon, is becoming more insidious with each passing day

The richer they are, the harder they suck.

The President’s unprecedented Executive Order yesterday targeting Messrs. Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor for nothing but the exercise of their First Amendment rights is the President’s most constitutionally corrupt Executive Order to date.

“We are living through a massive assault on basic premises of our constitutional system,” a lawyer tells Isaac Chotiner. “Call that a crisis or not, but either way we are in deep, deep trouble.”

When will Congress step in? Not as long as they’re getting richer. The best example for the need for term limits

Don’t be fooled — the SAVE Act is a Voter Suppression Act. Let’s call it like it is!

Crockett: This administration has someone who is heading up DHS that is going out there cosplaying with guns, it’s clear she doesn’t know how to operate the guns

Goodnight 🌙 Fuck Donald J. Trump

UPDATE: At least 3 are dead after a helicopter crashed into the Hudson River. 5 people were reportedly onboard including children. This is what happens when an arrogant POS “president” freezes flight control hiring on day 1 — air travel becomes less safe & people die We are not safe under Trump!

BREAKING: The Supreme Court will require the Trump administration to "facilitate" the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

It’s true…I noticed it too. I’m not much of a consuner of FOX or Newsmax, but we have to know what MAGA is consuming and why they believe the lies

Republicans pulled their budget vote—surprise! They’re too busy fighting each other to govern. They might be split on the math, but they agree on this: cutting services for working families & rewarding billionaires. This ain’t a budget—it’s a blueprint to rob the people.

Any traders with inside information that Trump was going to walk back his tariffs — some of them, presumably, Trump family members and cronies — just made a fortune. It all feels like chaos until you look more closely at who is winning.

I'm calling for an investigation into whether President Trump manipulated the market to benefit his Wall Street donors—all while working people and small businesses paid the price. Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping? It sure looks like corruption.

We are in the midst of an authoritarian takeover of the United States. Ruth Ben-Ghiat wrote nearly a year ago, "This sounds fantastical. Yet the strongman’s special talent is to bring the unthinkable into being. People throughout history have been caught by surprise." Published May 16, 2024:

Thank you Sarah

Next? Who else will stand up?

Breaking News: Several top officials at the IRS, including the acting commissioner, resigned after the agency agreed to assist with deportation efforts.

Just like 47, he’s gotta keep running to stay outta jail

It’s a month since the administration detained and disappeared a green card holder, a lawful permanent resident. We cannot allow this to be normalized or forgotten.

The Supreme Court has been under pressure from Democrats as well as Republicans to curb the ability of federal judges to issue nationwide injunctions. And yet, Donald Trump is seen as a big reason for why it should remain reut.rs/4ll4K0X

"Do you want a good government or a country that's in ruins?" This interview was too good not to share in its entirety. So meet Grant, a 15-year-old student from Princeton, New Jersey, who spoke to our reporter at the #HandsOff rally there. He has some thoughts.

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

Swalwell: This is what kicking the shit out of fascism looks like

Worst two-day stock market crashes in the U.S. by percentage loss: 1. 1929 (the Great Depression) 2. 1987 (Black Monday) 3. 2008 (the Great Recession) 4. YESTERDAY AND TODAY And while this happened, the man responsible for it was golfing and dining with enemies of America.

As markets melt down around the world, Congress could act right now to prevent an economic collapse before markets open on Monday. The only thing standing in the way is a few spineless Republicans.

Sure, let’s get the women riled up…that’ll fix ‘em

Elon Musk and DOGE have taken a blowtorch to federal agencies. But the tariffs are a helpful reminder that it's Donald Trump who's fiddling while it all burns.

This is his plan: cause panic and chaos about everything then back off and say “I fixed it! Everything is better now!”

I’m hearing from Social Security recipients in MA who’ve been marked as "not currently receiving payments,” on the Social Security website. Social Security is something you are legally entitled to. Elon's attack on Social Security is illegal—and it's hurting people.

This week, as the number of confirmed measles cases rose to 483, the CDC buried a report that would’ve stressed the importance of getting vaccinated. The move was “not normal at all,” one agency staff member said. By @sheinvestigates.bsky.social

BREAKING: The federal court of appeals in DC has cleared the way for Trump to fire members of the National Labor Relations Board and the Merit Systems Protection Board, consolidating Trump's grip on once "independent" parts of the executive branch. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Trump signed an executive order late last night that illegally strips workers of their collective bargaining rights. This will impact over one million Americans. I’ll support all efforts to stop this egregious assault on labor unions.

Bleed Baby Bleed🩸

SignalGate, 25% of the Department of Health and Human Services fired, and Trump taking away collective bargaining rights from federal employees. Just another week in Trump's America. youtube.com/shorts/fNS6P...

Information is classified for a reason. Irresponsibly sharing very clear war plans via group chat could have gotten our troops killed. This time, we averted a tragedy. Hegseth wasn't qualified for the job before his nomination, and he certainly isn't now.
