We are one Hegseth away from never being able to peacefully protest again. #ProudBlue

Trickle down economics. This is exactly how it works.

Dear Manager, 1. I drank a whiskey drink. 2. I drank a vodka drink. 3. I drank a lager drink. 4. I drank a cider drink. 5. I sang the songs that remind me of the good times; I sang the songs that remind me of the better times.

To me, a Nazi salute means, "I want to murder your family." There can be no irony about it: It puts deep anger and hatred in my heart to see it done and I will never forgive anyone who justifies or minimizes it.

In addition to nationwide protests in all 50 states across the U.S., our 50501 Washington DC Chapter is having a PEOPLE’S STATE OF THE UNION March 4th! If you can’t make it in person to your local protest, consider joining this digital demonstration. INFO: www.linktr.ee/50501DC @polrev.bsky.social

another Nazi salute at CPAC

Because... it far too often creates the false sense of security that gets parents to entrust their children's safety to these "Christian" men.

Traumatic brain injury is a leading cause of death and disability. A new antioxidant material neutralizes brain-damaging molecules in mice, boosting recovery—offering hope for treatment. A materials science engineer explains: #BrainInjury #Neuroscience https://buff.ly/3F0Mkln

Have you seen this, yet?! 👇 Please. Pass. It. On. ✨

For most folks, democracy is local. So get out and run for office. The people are demanding change. Don’t just wonder when that change will happen. Be that change.

They are removing every “checks and balances” institutions in USA, and when Dems notice, it will be too late “Its a bloodless revolution, if the Dems allow it” -the heritage foundation

Political cartoons are art. Simple as that.

#ProudBlue #Voices4Victory Do you know that Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel supports completely banning abortion in the state. Wisconsinites don’t need anymore politicians who want to drag us backwards & strip away our rights. Vote for Judge Susan Crawford on or before April 1st.

Some temporary good news out of Oklahoma. We take the wins! #ProudBlue

Jeffries: "This budget is a betrayal of working-class Americans... We only need 3 House Republicans -- there are 215 Democrats in the House - we only need 3 to stand up on behalf of their constituents, and that is going to be an ongoing effort over these next few days, to identify those individuals"

I’m all in. Anyone else???

Sheriff said he was "not acting in his official capacity," which means he gave up any claim of qualified immunity for battery and deprivation of rights.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

Jefferson warned us against this well over 200 years ago!

Not competent to run Medicaid/Medicare. He is NOT! No matter what he sells! End this madness! 😭 "Dr. Mehmet Oz, nominated to run the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, will sell shares in Eli Lilly and UnitedHealth. Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, NIH nominee, will shed stock in Walmart and Nvidia."

People are losing their lives and livelihoods and this psychopath and his technobro puppeteer are cracking jokes…

Says the guy who won't even respond to the mothers of his own children

No kings. No tyrants. Not now. Not ever.

He is admitting that he doesn’t want lawyers to stop him from breaking the law. No one would stop him from issuing lawful orders, so this has to be about unlawful ones.

I don't believe in Hell, but if I did I would die happy knowing there was a special seating section for anyone currently railing against "the sin of empathy," and every one of those seats is made with hot rusty barbs

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

This is the simple truth of our times. I remember being in awe of my great-uncle who survived the beaches of Dunkirk and my grandmother who was a wartime nurse. Now is the moment for which you will be judged by your descendents. Make it right for them and by them. #DemVoice1

#ResistanceUnited #Voices4Victory Reason #847 why you can't delete documents based on individual words. Safety documents were removed from the Labor Department website because they included "diversity." They dealt with the proper fit of safety equipment for firefighters of diverse size and shape.

He nails it.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Let's do this! #Boycott #Blackout #Resist #HoldTheLine #StrongerTogether

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

The evangelical radicalization away from their collective humanity, and towards the oblivion of organized hate, and mass violence is only accelerating.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Jamie Raskin: "Given that I was marching at age 3, you know I’m not letting any coup-plotting, election-denying, insurrection-supplying autocrat, kleptocracy, plutocrat or theocrat, or any techno-feudalist Silicon Valley broligarchs aspiring dictator, turn me around now.” Amen!!
