Nothing screams 'freedom' quite like arresting people in wheelchairs protesting Medicaid cuts.

This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.

MUST SEE: Congresswoman Schrier nails conspiracy theorist and unfortunate HHS Secretary, RFK Jr., on the value of vaccines—and it’s glorious. Schrier also happens to be the first pediatrician in Congress.

If you told the Supreme Court three years ago today that overturning Roe v. Wade would backfire, they’d call you “hysterical.” Now it’s just historical.

O, where hath our intelligence been drunk?

Last weekend’s war-worthy bombing of Iran casts the Alien Enemies Act court ruling in a new light: the Orange regime cannot rely on a wartime law WHILE THE US IS NOT AT WAR. @mmchol.bsky.social

if we're truly worried about sleeper cells, why are we devoting so much time, effort and money to rounding up and deporting cancer-stricken children? this is going to be the stupidest fucking war ever

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Iran’s stockpile dropped to 0 after Obama made the Iran Deal… until Trump pulled out of it (against the advice of his own Defense Secretary, General Mattis… because he hated Obama) Feels pretty relevant in this moment.

The authority to wage war rests with Congress. This impeachable action is the reckless behavior of a man granted near-total immunity who feels unleashed to do anything.

JUST NOW: Bernie tells the crowd about Trump attacking Iran, the crowd erupts into “NO MORE WAR!” chants Bernie calls the attack “grossly unconstitutional”

Someone asked me today about my plans for the Fall and it took me a moment to realize she meant my plans for the Autumn and not the collapse of civilization.

While we wait for the Supreme Court to rule in a critical redistricting case from Louisiana, this is what the GOP is up to in Texas and Ohio. Remember the GOP's plan is to make it harder for you to vote and easier for them to cheat.

Saying there are “too many non-working holidays” on Juneteenth is so on brand for a man who is actively trying to erase Black history. This from the same man who’s wasted over $26 million in taxpayer dollars and spent more than 30 days golfing since January 20, 2025? Please.

Trump administration has crossed a line, there is no law and order anymore. And when you cross that line, you enter what can only be called mob rule.

With everything else going on, the Senate sent the Big 💩 Bill back to the House, and made some changes. Here’s one:

Sure, you laugh, but they'll be selling Squeaky Tank dog toys on the West Lawn in a week.

THIS is the message, Democrats. More of this. More Democratic voices hitting these notes. Public opinion is on your side.

WATCH: “You’re a U.S. senator and you don’t know anything about the country you want to topple.” Tucker Carlson embarrasses @sentedcruz as he pushes for war with Iran

I applaud CA State Senator @scottwiener.bsky.social for introducing this bill: the No Secret Police Act. We’ve got to stop these masked thugs from terrorizing people. bsky.app/profile/scot...

#colorado #nokings #bailey Double the turnout from the April protest, ~200 in rural Bailey mountain community.

FUCK GYM JORDAN!!!

Florida Sheriff's unhinged warning to ICE protesters is bone-chilling. "We will kill you graveyard dead. We're NOT gonna play."

“A deranged maniac impersonated a police officer and killed lawmakers but if you’re an immigrant be sure you immediately comply with plain clothes people who won’t identify themselves telling you to get in a van”, what a fuckin country

Happy Obama Appreciation Day from 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦.

This woman rules.

This ghoul is running the country now. 12 hours after Felon47 said ICE would stop arresting farm workers they were still chasing workers in the fields
