Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

This is a solidly red district in Georgia. Republicans are really starting to feel the pressure — let’s keep turning up the heat. Your representatives are back home for congressional recess and we’ve got events planned around the country (including Tesla dealerships). LFG: indivisible.org/muskorus

This is in fact a real picture and it will work nicely in the ads next year about the military families devastated by Elon's illegal firings.

Inspiring!

Donald Trump is ending the national database of police misconduct

God this is so true

Republicans have proposed cutting the healthcare of 72 million Americans by as much as $880 BILLION Why Because they want to give more tax cuts to the ultra wealthy Think of it They’re willing to let people die So they can give their rich friends-like Elon-tax breaks Don’t Cut My Medicaid

By replacing a black 4-star general with a white 3-star general, we are finally bringing meritocracy back to the Department of Defense. by Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump

Happy Friday! This is the resistance. Cause some Good Trouble today!

I’m encouraged by these town halls but I also remember very clearly how this happened in 2017 as well. Instead of responding to the complaints, they stopped doing them. www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpo...

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

Trump’s betrayal of Americans: He promised not to cut Medicaid—now he’s backing a House plan that slashes $880 billion from it. All to fund $4.5 trillion in tax cuts for the rich. He doesn’t care if families drown in debt, as long as he & his billionaire buddies get richer. Don’t Cut My Medicaid!

BREAKING: Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio was arrested TODAY near the U.S. Capitol by Capitol Police. As Tarrio was walking away from a rally, he knocked the phone out of the hands of a heckler. Police immediately took Tarrio into custody. GOOD!

wish more of Film Twitter had moved over here, because the ratio of politics to nonsense fun things is way out of whack

He's a Sanders fan? Keeps impressing

ProPublica has released another study related to the effects of abortion bans in the U.S., this time showing a spike in sepsis cases in Texas following the implementation of that state's "heartbeat" abortion ban in 2021.

Valuing diversity is not a crime Installing white men in every position of power is not a meritocracy

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

Ok bro

Did you guys see the governor of Maine talk back to Trump? Oh my God. Legend.

"...eliminated positions for employees who have played a role in assessing the brain-implant technology in Elon Musk’s Neuralink devices." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/h...

“Shortly after Friday’s exchange, the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) announced that it launched a Title IX violation investigation into Maine’s Department of Education and one of its school districts.”

If you still have friends/family who think this administration will help them, talk to them about money....

It’s a cult.

Trump pardoned the sentence of arguably the single biggest drug trafficker in American history on his second day in office!

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

Trump benefits from the bully pulpit of the presidency, a legislative branch that has contracted out all of its autonomy, and Elon’s unlimited funding—but if he loses popular support, none of those things will matter. And we’re already seeing the tide turn. McCormick’s district (below) is R+22.
