@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov Thanks for voting for him along with ALL of the rest of the Democratic senators. Why aren't you ALL speaking out against this nonsense?

Good morning Bluesky !

Serious ⁉️ We shouldn’t have to pay to vote. It’s a right. Several countries automatically add citizens to the national electoral rolls on reaching voting age. Why don’t we do a version of that and save this drama? If Iceland, Germany, Sweden, Israel, Finland and Chile can manage it, why can’t we?

As Trump defies the Supreme Court and refuses to bring innocent father Kilmar Abrego Garcia back from El Salvador — it’s worth remembering his Czar of Hate Stephen Miller has always been viciously anti-immigrant, even in high school 👇🏽

The top 10 billionaires are worth $1.74 trillion. Imagine believing that we need to strip millions of families of their healthcare and food assistance just to give these people more handouts and tax breaks.

Stop donating to these 4 Democrats. They voted yes on the SAVE Act, a blatant voter suppression act: 🖕Jared Golden 🖕Marie Gluesenkamp Perez 🖕Henry Cuellar 🖕Ed Case #VotingRights newrepublic.com/post/193868/...

Medicaid pays 60 percent of long-term care—more than any other source! What if your child or family member is in an accident and needs long term care? Why are we sacrificing our well being for billionaires?! Hands off our Medicaid! #MomSky ✋🏼📴 Gift article…

FACT: Medicaid covers nearly half of all childbirths in the country, and around two-thirds of nursing home stays. FACT: Roughly 1/5 of America relies on Medicare or Medicaid to cover healthcare costs. FACT: GOP members just passed a bill requiring DEEP cuts to these programs. #HandsOffOurMedicaid

Number of people who go bankrupt every year because of medical bills or illness-related work loss: Australia 0 Canada 0 Denmark 0 Finland 0 France 0 Germany 0 Iceland 0 Ireland 0 Italy 0 Japan 0 Netherlands 0 Norway 0 Portugal 0 Spain 0 Sweden 0 UK 0 United States 530,000 There’s a lesson there.

There are elections every month in America. 21 upcoming in April alone. And Elon has data. The House just passed the Save Act. Please keep checking your voter roll status and what to do if you are wrongfully purged. www.dontgetpurged.org

It always boggles my mind that I, a journalist, am expressly forbidden from trading stocks, but members of Congress, with vastly greater knowledge of market-moving news, are allowed to profit by front-running markets, and so may profit by in essence stealing from the public they represent.

“He made 2.5 million today and he made $900 million. That’s not bad.” Sounds like market manipulation to me. That’s bad.

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Same story for my grandfather. Not one of his 10 children were coal miners.

Does anyone else think it’s weird all the domestic manufacturing jobs obsessives don’t seem that interested in producing housing? The thing you absolutely have to make in the U.S., there is a severe shortage of it, a ton of pent up demand, and opportunities for good paying jobs producing it?

Our message was clear: we won't be intimidated by politicians who want to control our bodies and our votes. The GOP's SAVE Act is a DISASTER for women's rights. It's up for a vote on Thursday! Let's make sure we STOP this in its tracks! #HandsOffHerVote

Exactly!

🔥 OBAMA: “IMAGINE IF I HAD DONE ANY OF THIS… I say this not on a partisan basis. This has to do with something more precious — who are we as a country, and what values do we stand for?” 🇺🇸

None of this is meant to further American interests. It’s meant to further the oligarchs interests.

We are very far over the cliff here, folks

Brilliant explanation.

If you are an NC resident and voted in November, please check if your name or the names of any family areone of the 60K votes being challenged. If so, confirm ASAP with your Board of Elections. You only have two weeks. The website to check linked in the reply. www.newsobserver.com/news/politic...

Sen. Tillis (R-N.C.) says he’s inclined to support the Grassley-Cantwell bill. Says he’s heard from constituents worried about the tariffs, esp farmers & restaurant/lodging sectors. Everyone in red states :: call your reps!!

What if you’re so outrageously incompetent you get it done in a matter of minutes?

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election. 70% of these donations went to Republicans. Now, Republicans in Congress are gearing up to slash essential programs to pay for another round of tax cuts for the rich. This is what oligarchy looks like.

This was….five months ago

Oh, so you mean it’s not about waste, fraud, and abuse? But about political retribution, hurting real Americans. Got it. ⬇️

I'm 18. The economy enters a once-in-a-century recession. A Republican president is responsible. I'm 29. There is once-in-a-century pandemic that leads to a once-in-century-recession. A Republican is responsible. I'm 35. Tarriffs trigger a once-in-a-century recession. A Republican is responsible.

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points. And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.

🚨NEW REPORT FROM @4taxfairness.bsky.social: Trump & Musk Families Could Save Billions From Republican Tax Plans

🙌🏼 I’m not sure who had the amazing idea to invite this constitutional lawyer to a senate hearing that *intended* to prove Biden colluded with Meta to censor conservatives. But she took the opportunity to speak truth to power ✊🏼 on the hypocrite 👑 KING OF FREE SPEECH, Donald Trump, himself. 👏🏼 Brava!

We’re going to annex Canada and invade Greenland but we can’t request return of an innocent man from El Salvador.

Judge Susan Crawford spent her career standing up to insurance and drug companies trying to rip us off. Her opponent sued to overturn the ACA as AG. If he had been successful, nearly 1 million Wisconsinites would have lost their healthcare. Vote for Judge Crawford on April 1st to protect our care.

What do you do when they target the schools?

The 1% evade $163B in taxes per year. Tesla paid $0 in federal income taxes from 2018 - 2022 & 2024. Billionaires can write off the cost of their private jets and yachts. While undocumented immigrants paid $96B in taxes in 2022. The more you look into it, the crazier it gets.

Early voting today in Wisconsin

Wait. Are laws just for the lower classes?

Yep

Please join a phone bank this weekend to help Judge Susan Crawford win! Show Musk that he can't buy our votes. Got to indivisible.org or www.mobilize.us/wisdems/even...

To ALL LOUISIANA VOTERS! Do not be bamboozled, led astray, run amok or fall for the okey doke! MAGA Gov. Jeff Landry does NOT care about you. Please go to the polls tomorrow and VOTE NO on ALL FOUR constitutional amendments. These amendments, if passed, will be locked into the state constitution.
