“I'm oftentimes very anxious myself about using my voice, because retaliation is real.” If you’re anxious about using your voice, then you’re probably in the wrong party, Lisa. Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski and others need to grow a spine and stand up for right from wrong.

IRS is tired folks. But our resolve remains. Doge has leaked government information to Russia. They are fucking traitors, all of the. Muskrat is hiding. Rubio is a vichy scum. Dump plays dumb. All are terrorists.

Looking forward to the Trump DOJ trying to explain to Judge Xinis how the United States remains totally powerless to do anything about Abrego Garcia’s continuing detention at the CECOT.

Mr. Abrego Garcia was illegally abducted by the Trump Admin and, by their own admission, wrongly deported to El Salvador. He shouldn’t have to spend another second away from his family. I'm flying to El Salvador tomorrow morning to check on his condition and discuss his return.

Both Elon Musk and Christian nationalists call empathy "toxic," "suicidal," and even "satanic." But what they're really worried about is that empathy is feminine. And in MAGA, a woman is the worst thing a person can be. An analysis. www.salon.com/2025/04/11/m...

Marth Stewart went to prison for insider trading on one stock. Marjorie Taylor Greene bought 17 stocks just before Donald Trump declared his "pause" in tariffs that caused those stocks to rise in value. How many others were tipped off? How many stocks did Donald buy? Ivanka? Mike Johnson?

Calling land reform in South Africa “genocide” is racist disinformation. 🚨🤥 White South Africans still own 85% of farmland — only 8–9% has been redistributed since 1994. This kind of rhetoric is extremely dangerous. It fuels hate and erases justice. 💔⚖️🕊️ #HumanRights #SouthAfrica #LandJustice

Bone chilling. A court ordered Kilmar Abrego Garcia to stay in the United States. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he was illegally removed. Trump is pretending he won the ruling 9-0. 1/ You may not think this case means anything to you. But let me tell you why it does.
