We're not living in normal times, but don't despair because the Resistance is strong. #Resist

“Strongman” politicians project their supposed strength by attacking immigrants, people of color, and the LGBTQ+ community. But these groups of people aren't the "threats" we should be worried about. Who is? The oligarchs who earn their keep by exploiting the rest of us.

If you are National Guard or Active Duty military and you are being ordered to violate the constitutional rights of US citizens then this is the number to the GI Rights Hotline. There is support. You don’t have to go through with it. 877-447-4487

L.A. is a huge test of our National Guard. If they are used to attack Americans, they will forever be seen as the enemy. Their reputation for helping Americans in need will be lost. Whoever follows Trump's orders to attack citizens will no longer have a service to be proud of. Fuck you if you do!

ICE forced to barricade themselves inside the federal building in Los Angeles until LAPD could intervene and rescue them from the brave crowds standing up to the regime.

Let’s Not Lose Focus….

Good morning.

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

06Jun2025 Mass Protest

Call the House switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and tell your Member of Congress: Vote NO on any budget that cuts Medicaid, SNAP, and Medicare. #Medicaid #MedicaidMassacre #MedicaidCutsKill #MAGAMurder bill

McGovern: "This is not a governing philosophy. It is a scam. I wasn't sent here to vote for trash. I can't understand why you'd choose a career of public service to do this -- to rip away the healthcare & food assistance of working & middle class Americans. Is that really what you came here to do?"

I stand with Rep. LaMonica McIver. This is a political stunt—point blank.

Just a reminder. Trump’s dumb posts about Taylor Swift & Bruce Springsteen are meant to distract. Today, he doesn’t want you talking about his “big beautiful bill” cutting Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for his mega-donors & mega-rich pals.

#WeAreUnderA #NaziRegime We have got to fight with all our fiber to take back our Democracy. #RESIST #REVOLUTION

I didn't agree with everything he did, but as a president, Obama was a million times better than the current piece of shit traitor.

Long live the resistance. #wearetheresistance May the force be with us.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 86% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 31% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

If Democrats think the answer is to "go back to normal," we’re gonna lose again—badly. The old system didn’t work for most people. Rebuilding it would be a disaster. Trump’s chaos is giving us a once-in-a-generation shot to build something better. Don’t blow it.

Right Now, most of the American can relate to this message from the 90's.

"How to Resist Amazon and Why" should be required reading for everyone.

JUST IN: Deputy Assistant to the President and "Counterterrorism Czar" Sebastian Gorka says anyone advocating for due process for Kilmar Abrego Garcia could be viewed as "aiding and abetting a terrorist" and be federally charged. (h/t Philip Germain)
