How on earth can this country still hold the World Cup and Olympics next year??

HAPPENING NOW: Aerial coverage of protesters marching peacefully in LA to protest ongoing ICE raid operations and Trump’s federalization of the National Guard Reporter: “What we’re looking at right now is a quiet, organized group and demonstrators marching peacefully to their destination.”

First they illegally deport citizens. Then they unleash ICE to terrorize communities. Now they’ve got the National Guard in L.A. to silence protestors. This ain’t about law and order. This is what authoritarianism looks like.

They’re not behaving as if they’re in a four-year term. They’re behaving as if they’re in an everlasting dictatorship. Are we all clear on this?

Over the past four months, Ed Martin has abused his position as interim U.S. Attorney to advance a dangerous agenda that places the president’s personal interests above those of the public, tramples the rule of law, and puts our democracy at risk. He is unfit to serve in public office.

Well, I had an interesting Sunday night, how 'bout you?

Hit the 💙 if you agree Rep. Jasmine Crockett would make an AMAZING Oversight Chair!

When famously squaring off with President Donald Trump over education funding, Mills said she would see Trump in court. She did just that, and on Friday she won a settlement for her state, for the kids and for people everywhere who needed to see a certain asshole bully get punched right in the eye.

The corruption is astonishing. The opportunities for graft are endless. @warren.senate.gov and I are demanding answers.

Grandpa Don is big mad after a Fox News poll found he has the lowest 100-day approval rating of any president. SAD!

If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.

@maddow.msnbc.com I loved your “oops” segment last night. Any chance you could post that here in written form? We have to make sure we keep talking about this. Don’t let anyone forget!

“Cowardice is contagious — so is courage.” “That’s what we’ve been seeing month after month... Starting with some people demonstrating courage, and then other people looking around and saying I can do that, too. It’s in my power. I’m not just a victim of world events.” - @ezralevin.bsky.social

Donald Trump and his unelected billionaire co-president are going after people’s Social Security — money they’ve paid in over a lifetime of hard work. Let’s talk about what’s going on and how we're fighting back.

My latest for @liberalcurrents.com We need to stop listening to commentators who spent a decade being arrogantly wrong about the fascist threat www.liberalcurrents.com/trump-alarmi...

"They are drowning us in a sea of lies — but we still remember reality." Day 145 of daily, non-stop protest in Georgia. #GeorgiaProtests

Courage is contagious. When you take action or speak out, you inspire others to do the same. During this congressional recess, we’re mobilizing at hundreds of local events to stop the GOP from gutting Medicaid and SNAP to fund tax cuts for billionaires. Join us: indivisible.org/muskorus

Serious question. Kristi Noem was pictured with a Rolex in El Salvador, and got 3k in cash stolen. She has been on a govt salary for years. Something aint right

1,300 people came out to our town hall last night in NJ-07, a Republican-held district. Like we've said, something big is happening in this country.

Workers who track data on car crashes, drownings, traumatic brain injury, falls in the elderly, and other perils lost their jobs. Advocates worry life-saving work will stop.

This Hegseth thing is funny and all — but the unprecedented incompetence, frivolity, and treachery of the entire cabinet puts us all at very real risk.

The scale at which DOGE is seeking to interconnect data, including sensitive biometric data, is unprecedented, raising alarms with experts who fear it may lead to disastrous privacy violations for citizens and immigrants alike.

The times require that elected officials be not just representatives of our communities and states but organizers defending American constitutional democracy and leaders out of this lapse into authoritarian rule. Watch this clip from @podsaveamerica.crooked.com:

Our administration will stand for two things: Fighting antisemitism and stopping the Soros-funded, Hollywood-controlling, migration-orchestrating, well-poisoning, global banking cabal of rootless cosmopolitans from destroying our Christian way of life. by J.D. Vance

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

Pay attention… this is the end game! These voter suppression efforts MUST stay in the forefront for all of us. A huge thank you to @marcelias.bsky.social for all you are doing!

This aged like milk. Donald Trump's weaponization of the tax system is illegal and a threat to every person who works hard and plays by the rules. Why aren't Republicans in Congress speaking out now? Grow a spine.

@kdb-sacto.bsky.social Good morning and Happy Friday Kimberly! 👋🩵🥳

AOC: Some of the Republicans whose districts we visited just warned their leadership that they’re not sure they can vote for Medicaid cuts now. We’ve got them on their back foot. But our job is not done. We will rally every corner of the U.S. We will not stop until they actually vote no.

•••••BREAKING••••• Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen just completed a presser in El Salvador. •Sen. Van Hollen made it abundantly clear that the Trump administration has repeatedly lied about Kilmar Abrego García. Indisputable truths: Abrego García was in the U.S. legally, he has absolutely no gang…

We are in a constitutional crisis. The President is illegally sending people to foreign prisons. He’s defying a unanimous Supreme Court decision. Congress cannot be business as usual. We need to go to El Salvador and demand the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

I suggest everyone become very, very familiar with this piece by law Professor @david.noll.org. I suspect you will be referring to it often. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/if-t...

“The old American order is dead. It ended on April 14, 2025, when a Latin American strongman sat in the Oval Office and discussed sending U.S. citizens to foreign concentration camps with the American president while they jointly defied the Supreme Court.” @jvl.bsky.social

Donald Trump is defying a Supreme Court order to bring back a man he illegally sent to a foreign prison. Kilmar Abrego Garcia has not been accused of any crime. He was in the United States legally. He must be brought home. The rights of all Americans depend on it.

I would like to point out that the executive branch claiming the power to mete out life/death sentences seems like a separation of powers issue as well

The bipartisan belief that America would be a better place if *other people* worked in a factory. www.ft.com/content/8459...
