Elon Musk continues to warn against the GOP budget bill

MAGAs are attacking the mayoral candidate who just won the New York primary calling for his deportation. He’s American. Deport him where, exactly? To Ohio?

If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029: - $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion - $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million - $8 billion for hiring/retention - Billions more.

Instead of wringing their hands over him, Democrats should follow Zohran Mamdani's lead. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-corporate-democrats-biggest-nightmare

www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/v... See the Cheney Bros Inc trucks there as well.

To every Democratic Party consultant, candidate, staffer, and operative I have ever said “money doesn’t vote” to, I would like to reiterate…MONEY DOESNT VOTE.

Something the Mamdani win demonstrates is the extent to which the reigning cadre of ancient, establishment, centrist Dems think it’s more important to be on good terms with their GOP colleagues than it is to represent their own voters, and how thoroughly sick of this literally everyone is.

The name “Alligator Alcatraz” reflects an intent to treat people fleeing hardship and trying to build a better life for themselves and their families as dangerous criminals, which is both unnecessary and abusive.

In the time you spend watching this video, Jeff Bezos will earn more than what the majority of full-time American workers earn in a year. Say it with me: Tax the rich.

Wonder why ICE workers are so horrible? Whistleblowers who speak out about illegal actions and inhumane conditions are being fired, then replaced with Trump loyalists who won’t ask questions. ICE leadership has seen over a dozen top-level resignations and firings since Trump took office,

The Supreme Court has cleared the way for the Trump administration to resume fast-track deportations of migrants to countries other than their own, suspending, for now, a lower court’s requirement that they be given a chance to challenge their removal.

I hate when I go to bed early on a Saturday night and wake up Sunday morning only to discover we’ve gone to war in the Middle East without the consent of Congress. 😡

🚨 TRUMP ENDORSES REGIME CHANGE IN IRAN, CALLS TO 'MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN'

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."  -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

Weapons of mass destruction… again? It’s Iraq 2.0?

Very Cool 😎

On Juneteenth, we celebrate freedom and recommit ourselves to the work that remains undone. We remember that even in the darkest hours, there is cause to hope for tomorrow’s light.

Today we honor Juneteenth, a reminder that freedom was fought for, not given. We must honor the past by continuing to fight every day for justice, truth, and equality.

I feel safer already.

Similarities between ICE & the Gestapo

Spare us the fake outrage.

“Fixing climate change is too expensive.” Um no. What’s really expensive is doing nothing. Climate disasters cost billions—and those costs are rising fast. Climate solutions save money and lives, as well as building a better world for us all 🌏💚

Next time someone in Congress glibly dismisses your need for healthcare, remember that they have some of the best healthcare in the country. And it was paid for by YOU.

The GOP’s “big, beautiful bill” would be the biggest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in U.S. history. On average, someone in the top 0.1% would gain around $390,000 next year. But someone in the bottom 20% would lose $820, and nearly twice as much—$1,545—in 2033.

For an administration that wants to encourage people to have children they sure are coming up with creative ways to terrify women about getting pregnant in America 2025.

George Floyd was murdered on this day five years ago. Despite massive protests over racial injustice, police killings are sadly on the rise. Instead of pouring more funds into our brutal system of policing, let's invest in communities. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/24/u...

The Trump administration is escalating efforts to suppress internal dissent and tighten control over information. A new wave of polygraphs is underway, targeting individuals suspected of leaking or resisting from within. Internal guidance has been distributed. Please 🙏 read and follow!

Americans work more hours, take less vacation, work longer days, & retire later. But hey, at least we're not stuck with socialized health care.

There needs to be a spreading hands emoji for posts like this. This is so well said.

New Democratic candidate running for congress in Florida. Seems like a decent human. www.noahforflorida.com

Hey, I’m Adam Mockler. I’m 22, I debate about politics on YouTube, and 1.2 million people follow me for it! Can you like this post so I show up on Google looking cool instead of photos of me from highschool? Thanks!

Lowdown, sneaky treasonous vipers.

Imagine choosing RIGHT NOW to tie yourself to Elon's sinking ship 🤦 Time to find a new burrito joint friends #teslatakedown techcrunch.com/2025/05/16/c...

Marjorie, I know the truth confuses you and facts ain’t your strong suit—so let me break it down real slow: George Floyd didn’t die from drugs. He died because Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. That’s called murder.

When streets are safe for walking & cycling, people spend more time outdoors, supporting local businesses & keeping city centres alive. 👍Good for business 👍Great for communities 👍Essential for safer & healthier cities 🔗 bit.ly/4jPzXsa #RoadSafety #StreetsForLife
