I don't know about you...but I'm disturbed by the amount of hell NOT being raised by leadership about masked individuals jumping out of unmarked vans, refusing to identify themselves...and just shoving people into a Goddamn vehicle and whisking them away.

FUCK LYING FOX NEWS

A US Senator. Still think it can't happen to you?

So far below any level of common decency or empathy. Do better, Utah.

EPIC response.

Walz: "This cannot be the norm. It cannot be the way that we deal with our political differences. Now is the time for us to recommit to the core values of this country ... Talk to a neighbor rather than arguing. Debate an issue. Shake hands. Find common ground. This is who Melissa Hortman was."

Massive, diverse turnout in Honolulu--the vibe was incredible! Only negative I saw was caused by two pick-up trucks flying their T**** flags high and yelling at protestors. The "bird flag" flew high! 🖕

A man dressed as a cop shot Rep. Hortman and another Minnesota lawmaker. This is on Trump and his regime.

Hawai'i protestors--out of respect for our native friends, let's not use "no kings" today as they celebrate King Kamehameha I. Keep the 'Iolani Palace area clear till the parade has moved on. See you at 11.

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.

Please read, this is important. Sorry it’s long. Trump’s move to have Elon Musk step aside wasn’t a retreat. It was a distraction. With Musk’s name out of the headlines, many assumed the controversial Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) had quietly ended. It hasn’t. It’s just changed hands.

#ProudBlue Bravo! 👏 More of this, please.

Were you inspired? I was inspired...🙄

Lesbian teen brutally beaten unconscious & robbed at McDonalds - LGBTQ Nation ...again...a lesbian attacked for using the women's restroom. It's a huge mistake for anyone to abandon our transgender siblings. The entire LGBTQ+ community is under attack. We're all in this together.

Get it straight

“Life is better when we leap together.” Kermit the Frog delivered a commencement speech at the University of Maryland on Thursday, the alma mater of his creator, Jim Henson. nyti.ms/4dwMuhQ

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

This country depends on it.

I have not yet begun to be loud!

Reminder: the Taylor Swift and Bruce Springsteen posts are just to distract from the Qatari "gift" or the fact that he's trying to rip Medicare and Medicaid from millions of Americans right now.

It must be sad to be that delusional.

Wonder what the white people's tariff was...

How is this shit legal? If I did this, I'd have rent-a-cops breaking down my door.

Hahahaha! The bitch of all bitches.

Make good trouble.

#DemVoice1 #Voices4Victory Exactly what the Russian Republicans are scared of. Those who do not fear them. Those who don’t bend the knee. Those who don’t obey. Yes. This is really America under a convicted felon’s regime! Want better? Y’all gotta vote better!

Just another way Elon's DOGE deceptions serve to help him personally.

He's such a fucking moron. There is just no other way I can describe him.

NEW: Crowd now growing at the Capitol where Cory Booker and Hakeem Jeffries are staging a sit-in on the steps. Is this building into something? If you’re in DC, they’re encouraging folk to come down there & support. #Resist (📸 Sen. Brian Schatz)

"The Constitution is only as strong as our willingness to defend it." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/25/o...

Too true.

If RFK told me, to my face, that my autistic son was a failure, a non-productive leech on resources, who had no reason to expect human rights or a good quality of life...I would proudly claim responsibility for what I might do to him. Parents of autistic children should not be fucked with.

1/5 Watched @hcrichardson.bsky.social & Sen. Angus King today. Sen. King spoke of writing your Reps. & Sen. How important it is, it does make a difference. Then saw this. A lot of screen shots but a good idea. Stick to issues effecting you or those you know. Be Specific.

Thank you, Senator Van Hollen--finally, a lawmaker taking real action!

Finally some good news!

Bullshit is putting it lightly.

Whew! Sen Chuck Grassley’s town hall should be a wake-up call for Trump & Republicans. Voters want Kilmar García brought home — and they’re pissed Trump’s thumbing his nose at a Supreme Court ruling. This isn’t “tough on crime,” it’s lawless, un-American trash — and folks know it. This is Iowa!

Yes!!!

You said it.

Saw a guy posting saying immigrants shouldn't leave their countries but should "create a new government" if they don't like theirs. First of all, dumbass statement with too much to unpack and secondly, bet this isn't the government they came here to find.
