🧵 NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler had a local social worker physically dragged out of his town hall Sunday night. Emily Feiner was singled out by private security, lifted out of her seat, as the crowd chanted “let her stay” and “shame, shame.” She’s a constituent. Not a threat. Fascism again.

The taxation of trade routes is in dispute and turmoil has engulfed our Republic. But there is a new hope. We must band together and resist the dark side. Do or do not. There is no try. #StarWarsDay

This guy outside the Capitol seems to really be enjoying his weekend. What a vibe.

It's been in my head for over 24 hours. Please help.

Your kids get a max of two toys and then grow up to work in the same factory as their father and grandfather screwing in tiny screws. It’s called The American Dream.

Paying ATTENTION, yet?! 👇 Hope so.

This is the definition of a complete and catastrophic public health failure. This is public health in the United Stares, circa 2025.

I don’t know why he goes to so much trouble as to include a dinner when he could stand outside the White House with his aides and a big sack and have people shovel money into it directly after kissing his ring #corruption

My mind is so rotted that I thought about IRB approval.

This isn’t about supporting families, it’s about control. The same politicians attacking our rights are now pushing marriage and childbirth. We need real support for all families and the freedom to decide our own futures. Call Congress. Speak out. They win if we stay silent.

The Antichrist.

My heart breaks that the Pope’s last day on earth included that evil ass clown.

A Chinese citizen does a Trump impersonation and is honestly better than Trump at being trump. 🤣😂

As a lawyer, I can tell you why Abrego Garcia must remain in El Salvador. If he were free, he could sue me for defamation and win. by Pam Bondi

A co-worker of mine (who is a judge), traveled by train from Montana to North Dakota for work this week. The train made a stop in Havre, MT, where ICE agents—armed and dressed in full military-style tactical gear—boarded the train.

This is a must see, must share video! Make it go viral! Silence is complicity. Donald Trump is sending people including legal residents to a dystopian hellhole torture mill called CECOT. Trump says he even wants to send citizens there. Will YOU be next? Your loved ones? You MUST speak out now!

in chinese culture, it is considered rude to offend the people you want to negotiate with by calling them dumb peasants. few know this

Perfect.

Trump getting all of us to root for Harvard is a hell of a feat, not gonna lie.

Astounding effrontery. So hard to believe that other schools have actually signed on to this.

Please share with your reps 1/7 Why is protecting Medicaid so important? It's not just policy - it's people's lives. Mine included. I have an incurable bleeding disorder requiring regular blood transfusions and weekly iron infusions. Without Medicaid coverage I simply cannot afford to stay alive.

Trump says he'd like to deport US citizens to El Salvador: "I'd like to go a step further. I don't know what the laws are, we always have to obey the laws, but we also have homegrown criminals that push people into subways... I'd like to include them in the group of people to get out of the country"

Trump promised to beat China at trade. China responded with a parody video and 40% GDP growth. #WinningSoMuch #BringBackJobs2025 #MAGAufacturingDreams #MadeInUSAAgainLOL #ChinaIsTrollingTrumpBIGLY

part of the political issue is that popular understanding of mid century america is filtered through nostalgia-drenched popular culture, often through stories told from the perspective of a child or, if not a child, an affluent adult

This is really unfair to everyone who just voted for him for the racism.
