If this person sat next to you on a bus or train and started ranting about Bruce Springsteen in this way, you would get up and move to a different seat. In the United States, we have him the nuclear codes.

Weber: I'm glad you're addressing us instead of speaking to the camera. … AOC: There are 13.7 million Americans on the other side of that screen. Hello. I’m talking to you because I work for you. They deserve to see what is happening here..

Dear Democratic Leadership: if any of you happen to see this, take this to heart. People are ANGRY. You may see the young rebels as being foolish, and maybe you are right, but that isn't the point now. You either show some REAL spine and some BOLD aggression, or you will lose. EVERYTHING.

To be clear - even the city of Nashville has no proof anyone ICE has arrested was a violent criminal or a gang member. (And due process is a thing) All anyone has is ICE’s word, backed up by @GovBillLee & Blackburn. Maybe the media could point that out instead of parroting their talking points?

In honor of May Day/International Workers Day yesterday here’s “UNION SONG” from the steps of the Madison, Wisconsin capitol building during the massive union uprising of 2011. 100,000 people turned out in the streets in 10 degree weather in solidarity (Of course Brother Wayne Kramer was there too)!

The last thing in the entire world anyone should be worrying about right now is Trump 2028, that problem is 2+ years in the future which might as well be another era of the earth No need to worry about a hypothetical violation years down the line when Trump is violating the Constitution now, today

Virginia met Maxwell at Mar-a-Lago - she worked for Trump. Trump was close friends with Epstein. The predators she exposed were protected. The powerful she threatened still thrive. Virginia Giuffre fought hard. She has died by suicide, at 41 years old. The evil of oligarchs devoured her #Endimpunity

I'm not ragging on the Guardian exactly but it's genuinely obscene that we aren't referring to pronatalism as what it actually is: a eugenics-based attempt to outbreed "degenerate" races Countries with demographic emergencies do not mass deport young, able-bodied people who are willing to work

How do you resist? Remember 9/11? Guess what? Bin Laden won. Fighting isn't always about winning the battle. It can be about forcing your more powerful opponents to commit resources and time to defense while you break the moral of their supporters. The Founding Fathers knew this.

The protests are not for Trump to see, they are so you can all see each other and grow. It's not the protest itself that tyrants are afraid of, but the networks and community you can grow from them. Your strength is your unity and that's why the enemy thrives by demoralizing and dividing you. #3E

Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Just to crack the code here: there is no evidence at all that the Trump Administration _can_ bring this man back...but it also cannot _admit_ that it cannot bring him back, because if it admits that it will be conceding that it sold this man to El Salvador permanently and Bukele will not return him.

Protests aren’t the only tool in the anti-authoritarian toolkit, but they’re incredibly important. Protests help us see each other; they make it feel safer to refuse to obey the dictator, and make it more possible for us to organize mass non-cooperation. It’s an essential step in the process.
