At the brink of war, our military is being led by an incompetent drunk. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tUo...

We’ve uncovered fraud, waste, and abuse! ICE has now exceeded its congressionally approved budget. ICE is violating the Antideficiency Act by spending beyond Congressional authorization.

AOC: "They have released chaos in LA by violently raiding & ripping apart peaceful public spaces, and now they are tackling & arresting US sitting members of Congress, while going on the record & lying about what happened.

Happy No Kings Day!

To Sir With Love #AmazingGrace #ObamaAppreciationDay #Obama #NoKingsDay

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

"Tanner, a chemist at the Univ. of Mississippi working to develop a novel approach for treating glioblastoma, was notified in April that the grant was terminated. “I would like to cure brain cancer,” Dr. Tanner said. “I think that's not particularly controversial.” www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Every accusation is a confession.

The Florida Bar has filed misconduct charges against Attorney General Pam Bondi. She has been in violation of multiple ethics rules since being sworn in.

The head of FEMA joked about not knowing hurricane season had started. Americans work too damn hard and pay too much to be governed by clowns. When lives are at stake, we need serious leadership, not punchlines.

I think a lot of of those folks dressing up like ICE are not even cops much less federal agents. The way they carry themselves. The way they are dressed. Something is off.

ICE dressed up like utility workers who offer "free estimates" if invited inside. Neighbor recorded the ICE goons and intervened, just before a young boy let them into his home. Tucson Electric Power was not told ICE agents would be impersonating their utility workers as part of the ICE raid.

I’m officially running to be the Ranking Member of the House Oversight Committee. These are not normal times—and this cannot be a business-as-usual moment. Read my full letter to my colleagues here: crockett.house.gov/media/press-...

Democrats do not to need to vote for any Trump appointee.

House GOP is holding a hearing on their tax bill at 1:00 AM because they don't want us to know about their scheme to strip 13.7 million people of health coverage & they think no one will stay awake for it. I’ll be there, testifying & offering amendments to protect our families.

16 Democrats joined Republicans to advance crypto regulation that's been rubber stamped by the industry — as Trump profits off his own memecoin. Why? Crypto corporations have shelled out huge campaign contributions to both parties. Big Money has corrupted the system.

Abolish ICE is the compromise position. We need to abolish the entire Department of Homeland Security, which was created after 9-11 with the express purpose of terrorizing immigrant communities, activists, and ordinary people in a sickening display of security theater that does not make anyone safer

Random reminder that banning members of Congress from trading stock is a total no brainer. They can use privileged information to make money on the stock market, while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake — it’s legalized corruption.

BREAKING: Moody’s has DOWNGRADED the United States’ credit rating from Aaa to Aa1 — the first-ever U.S. credit downgrade in the agency’s history. “We do not believe that material multi-year reductions in mandatory spending and deficits will result from current fiscal proposals under consideration.”

Honestly? The $400M plane from Qatar is quaint compared to his crypto scam, memecoin con, insider trading, and tariff shakedowns.

Bribery in plain sight.

Having now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.

The fascism playbook hasn't changed—only the speed we're flipping through its chapters.

They want me arrested. They want me silenced. I'm not going anywhere.

Word is Attorney General Pam Bondi is seeking records and testimony from journalists. Please be mindful of how you communicate use secure formats, follow established guidance, and above all, protect your identity at all costs.

We are not under invasion. There is no justification for suspending our constitutional rights. Every single American should speak out against this, loudly and forcefully.

Stephen Miller says they are “actively looking at” suspending the writ of habeas corpus, which is only allowed when the US has been invaded or during an insurrection, which would not allow people to challenge their incarceration in court if they are arrested and detained.

I knew it! The White House is considering SUSPENDING HABEAS CORPUS. And here I thought I was being paranoid.

“The controversial 1,000-bed facility is owned by the private prison company GEO Group, which entered into a 15-year, $1 billion contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in February.” $1 BILLION dollars lining the pockets of a private prison company. www.insidernj.com/baraka-arres...

JD Vance broke the National Championship trophy, then visited the Pope who died the next day, then visited India and a terrorist attack happened and war broke out, then endorsed his brother for mayor who lost 83-11%. What’s next on the agenda?

Granddaughter of a Navy vet. Daughter of a Navy vet. Mother of an Army soldier. Not one damn dime should be spent on a military parade for a draft dodger…

If you send letters to oppose this authoritarian military parade I’ll follow you back! Just reply and let me know you sent them! actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

To all those who said boycotting Target was a waste of time. It wasn't. Keep it up, y'all!

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

The arrest of a judge and the removal of U.S.-born children represent the escalation of this regime’s lawlessness and inhumanity—part of its expanding commitment to stoke fear, ignore its constitutional obligations & threaten the lives of everyone in America. www.americaamerica.news/p/how-much-i...

The Department of Justice has restored two previously canceled grants supporting victims of violent crimes, including domestic violence, following a Mother Jones report on Thursday that highlighted the critical roles the programs played for survivors.

Funny how the paperwork only matters when it’s a woman or minority voter.

Trump administration has deported a 2-year-old U.S. citizen to Honduras with no meaningful process and against the wishes of her father.

It was never just about schools, it was never just about libraries, and it isn't actually about the books. It's about finding a way to banish entire people, entire ideas, out of society, back into the closet or worse. www.chron.com/politics/art...

We have now arrived at the "arresting judges" level of fascism.

Here comes the arrests of journalists now.

Art of the deal 🤣😂🤣😂

Kinda hard to see a free and fair 2028 election where she doesn’t win by a lot.

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."

there is simply no amount of child death that will move RFK to change his mind because he is a predatory narcissist who cares less about health than the gratification of his own ego
