personally would like to see every store show what part of the price increase is due to tariffs bc if these tariffs ever come down, i need to see that price go right back down

THIS is what we mean by showing up. Reps Carter, Thompson, Pressley and Sen Markey, went to a detention center where Mahmoud Khalil & Rumeysa Ozturk are being held w/out due process. They didn’t just stand up for their own constituents—they stood together for all because there’s power in numbers.

Pete Hegseth won’t resign. Republicans won’t admit to mistakes. They blame others and double down. The only way you get rid of White Christian Nationalists is by force.

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

The top story in the United States this week is the atrocities developing as a result of the relationship between Donald Trump and Nayib Bukele. Not tariffs. Not Katy Perry. Not whatever new dumb shit Elon Musk did. Major media needs to get this right and show America it is still paying attention.

I am calling for a total and complete shutdown of detainees being removed from the United States to foreign prisons until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on.

Disappearing people without any due process is fascism — full stop. I’m sick to my stomach and we all should be.

Netflix was my first subscription. Back when they’d mail you 3 dvds at a time. We been rocking together for a long time. I hate seeing what they’ve become. 😔🤣

@schumer.senate.gov If you vote for cloture you are a stain on this country’s history that will never go away. You are willingly passing power to a tyrant in waiting, and you are a disgrace to every oath of office any senator has ever sworn. Your legacy will be one of cowardice and contempt.

re the previous repost: if they can disappear permanent residents they can disappear citizens

can't believe it's 2025 and i'm stressed about tariffs and measles, like am i a character in an american girl book

It’s been a long day, but in short, bullies ain’t shit! I don’t care what title you hold! This isn’t some long gone reality tv show or failed casino; it is war! How dare a draft dodging dumb dupe humiliate an ally & berate a brave man who has actually been on a battlefield for his people?!

Today, in a meeting at the White House, the only person actually defending American interests was Zelenskyy. Let that sink in.

I knew all this was going to happen. But nothing can really prepare you for what it feels like when the moment actually arrives. This is why we need each other and our communities. I plan to turn to them a lot in the coming years.

Do me a kindness! Share this if you love and support your local library & librarians (and remember: that includes your school library & school librarian) 😊📚 Thank you libraries & library workers… for everything ✨💚

Do I wanna be warm? Of course. Do I want my house to be warm? Absolutely not. I want my house to be just cold enough that I can smother myself in blankets *thereby becoming* warm. Please respect my process.

Everyone thinks their cat is the most magnificent cat in the world. And everyone is correct!

Bruce Fischer made a choice. He didn’t want to shake Vice President Kamala Harris’s hand & he got dragged for it. Rightfully so. As a husband of an incumbent Senator he knows better. Stop making excuses for bad behavior in men. tinyurl.com/ypveexne

LA fires are a good reminder that the only difference between me and any refugee is luck.

We don’t forget. This is what January 6th is:

I won’t be smearing shit on walls or beating police officers with flags at the US Capitol tomorrow even though my preferred Presidential candidate did not win…

All I want for Christmas is to pull a loose book from a bookshelf and finally, at long last, find that it opens a hidden door.

A federal judge has struck down key parts of an Arkansas law that would have allowed criminal charges against librarians and booksellers for providing so-called “harmful” materials to minors

LOVE to see this solidarity among union brothers and sisters! We must stand with Starbucks & Amazon workers! #SolidaritySeason

Gisele Pelicot is an incredible woman and a hero for her nerve in bringing all those rapists to justice and for knowing the shame does not lie worth her — bravely declining anonymity was incredible.

💯

I guess the founders didn't count on someone who doesn't qualify to be president just making the guy who wins his puppet by giving him lots of money, complimenting him and moving into his house

Whoever this is, they’re tragically right.

This is what Elon is offering America—and all he is offering. A return to America as a Robber Barony.

Inside me are two wolves: one is super proud I didn't buy any snacks at the grocery store and the other is absolutely FURIOUS that I didn't buy m any snacks at the grocery store

It is so much easier to blow something up than build something up, and that includes our government.

Never forget this: The GOP’s nonsensical culture war is meant to distract you from corporate corruption, worker oppression, and staggering wealth inequality.
