“It took the Nazis 1 month, 3 weeks, 2 days, 8 hours..to dismantle a constitutional republic. All I’m saying is when the 5-alarm fire starts to burn, every good person better be ready to man a post with a bucket of water if you want to stop it.” -Gov. Pritzker www.americaamerica.news/p/rooting-ag...

That Trump is now calling Pres. Zelensky a “dictator” and it talked the U.S. into spending $350 billion (a lie) for a war Ukraine started (another disgusting lie) should remind you the White House occupant is mentally deranged and must be opposed at all times.

I did an event in IN a few weeks ago where I said that on 1/6/21 Mike Pence saved the country (for now) by being one of very very few who stood by his principles under maximum threat.

SIGN @momsrising.org’s letter calling on the U.S. Congress, to prioritize #familiesoverbillionaires—no tax cuts for billionaires and corporations paid for by cuts to our health care, nutrition, education, and childcare. action.momsrising.org/sign/tax2025...

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.

People are fleeing Florida and Texas. As of Jan. 2025, those states collectively accounted for over 30% of ALL homes for sale in the US. Florida had 157,221 active listings—the highest in the country—followed by Texas with 102,552. Repressive state governments and rising insurance are to blame.

In case you’re having a bad day, new polling shows Assistant President Poopy Pant’s approval rating and personal popularity are going down faster than Lauren Boebert’s hand at a kid’s musical. Happy #PresidentsDay indeed.

The co-occupant of the Oval Office is a sexually abusing, business defrauding, draft dodging, convicted felon who bragged about grabbing women by the pussy. He is a predator. Not a president. #PresidentsDay

Today, we honor Frederick Douglass on his chosen birthday. 🎂 His 1855 autobiography MY BONDAGE AND MY FREEDOM is a powerful account of his journey from enslavement to freedom. Read it here ➡️ https://archive.org/details/mybondagemyfreed6062doug/ #Blackhistorymonth #LetReadersRead #InternetArchive

Allow me to address the elephant in the room: Lies do not suddenly become truths because, instead of shouting them out with orange makeup and a wig, you serve them up with a smile, eyeliner and a hipster beard.

BIG NEWS: We're holding DOGE accountable. It's not "efficient" to allow Elon Musk's operatives to mess with the systems that send Social Security checks or pay for your mom’s doctor through Medicare. It's dangerous for the economy and a breach of privacy for millions of Americans.

A judge just blocked Elon Musk and co-president Donald Trump from firing the financial cops at the CFPB who protect consumers from Wall Street scams. There's power in fighting back.

Holy. Fuck.

Real Americans—not Nazi-loving, Putin-appeasing types like JD Vance, Trump & Musk—stand with our European allies.

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

If one person were tasked with destroying our country from within, this is exactly what the fuck it would look like.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Trump administration officials fired more than 300 staffers at the National Nuclear Security Administration — the agency tasked with managing the nation’s nuclear stockpile — as part of broader Energy Department layoffs. Incredibly, they didn't know this agency oversees America’s nuclear weapons.

Dear Global Friends, We know how you feel. We get it. We don’t recognize these people holding power either. We don’t recognize them as legitimate expressions of our values or principles as Americans. Thank you for voicing your disapproval and opposition. Signed, A concerned American

You might have missed it, but Amazon warehouse workers in Raleigh, NC are voting this week on whether to form a union. If they win, they'll be the first unionized Amazon facility in the South. Remember that we can always find hope in the labor movement.

SIGN: Keep ICE out of our churches >>: More than two dozen organizations and denominations just filed a lawsuit to stop the Trump administration's policy of allowing immigration raids at houses of worship. Let's show our support as fellow Christians now >> act.faithfulamerica.org/sign/Trump-I...

Heck yeah: Researchers at Tufts University have made a liquid silk solution that grabs objects like Spider-Man’s web.

We’re living in the golden age of press conferences where a weird guy on pills babbles incoherently

Tina is an organizer who fights from the heart.   She spent her time in the Senate lifting up the voices of people who need government on their side - who need childcare for their kids and reproductive freedom.   Tina, it's meant a lot to have a partner like you!

Of course the Democrats will be going to Houston to find and interview voters who were laid off , to ask them what their expectations of the new administration were and how they feel they are doing at the moment. And posting here and everywhere. Right ?

i do not understand what elon and trump would be doing differently if there weren’t themselves actual agents of beijing and moscow

READ Danielle Sassoon's letter to AG Pam Bondi, via @nytimes.com: "Rather than be rewarded, Adams's advocacy should be called out for what it is: an improper offer of immigration enforcement assistance in exchange for a dismissal of his case." static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics...

What can you do? Don’t give up hope. Dictators feed off your hopelessness. Don’t quit. Dictators want you to give up. Punch back. Dictators are bullies, and bullies are cowards. Stay tethered to the truth. Dictators need you to believe their lies. Resist. Stand with others.

This fight will not be easy.  What we're dealing with now is one of the worst stress tests our nation has ever endured. But I believe that we will survive.  Do not descend into despair.

Putting RFK Jr in charge of our nation’s health is like putting Jeffrey Epstein in charge of child safety.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

Manhattan federal prosecutors were about to bring a new bombshell indictment charging Mayor Eric Adams with destroying evidence and telling people to lie to the FBI. That’s per a letter sent by Danielle Sassoon, who resigned rather than obey an order from Trump’s Justice Department to kill the case.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s idea of efficiency is stopping research on curing cancer.

Breaking news: Inflation is higher now under Trump than it was for the entire second half of last year under Joe Biden. MAGA: That’s right baby!! Daddy’s home! Trump 2024! Because it is a cult of willful fucking stupids.
