“Mommy, no. Mommy.” Daughter captures the moment masked ICE agents smash the window of her mother's car in order to take her into custody. The government claims the 52-year old seamstress is an associate of the MS-13 gang. www.thebaltimorebanner.com/community/lo...

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA): "I'm writing to the White House to demand who knew in advance that the President was going to, once again, flip flop on tariffs. And are people cashing in? There is just all too much opportunity for people in the White House and the administration to be insider trading"

This isn’t a trade war against China and the rest of the world. It’s an economic war against working class America.

All they have to do is say you aren’t legal and then they can take you away to a torture prison from which it is impossible to prove you are legally in the right.

Will you show up now? Or are you still not even on BlueSky?

when people say "this isn't what I voted for" they should be forced to list what they DID vote for

It's clear as day

Do NOT whine at me that Democrats aren’t doing anything! Many Dem legislators are fighting for us in every way they legally can!

In most societies, the rich and powerful acceded to the rule of law solely because they realized that, as soon as ordinary people feel they’re getting screwed without any chance of peaceful redress, that’s when you get the pitchfork-wielding mobs.

Every single one is a traitor.

Boat derangement syndrome

By its P/E ratio, it shouldn’t be above $6. It’s all a PR scam and it still has a long way to drop.

Can we reach 12 Million Americans protesting? We passed 5 Million on April 5th and no martial law. This is an emergency. If you believe we will win, show up. Not everyone can do it but 12 Million of over 340 Million can. youtu.be/In1R7tjXxuM?...

The Dark Alliance of Putin and Trump via @thetyee.ca thetyee.ca/Analysis/202... Good wrap-up from last month. Traces #Russian influence in the US from 2015.

Every single Republican legislator is a traitor to the American people. And the Republican voters are suiciding cultists. The Republican Party no longer has the right to represent Americans—just admit they represent Putin.

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat. They're trying to get away with it again.

By the way, both women who ran for president were right. They predicted this moment would happen. Says something very disturbing about our country that many still think they’re unrealistic or dramatic, when they were and are, in fact, correct.

This is just like 2008 -- except that in 2008, the government was trying to stop the crash, whereas now, the government is literally causing the crash.

It wasn’t so bad when the smart woke people were running shit now was it

The same damage being done to the stock market is being done to our health, securities & environment, there just isn't a stock ticker to show how bad it is for the others.

I can only imagine the bailout package they are drawing up for themselves. As the saying goes, privatize the profits, and socialize the losses.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

I know others have said this, but all this tomfoolery could end literally tonight if Congress had 1 ounce of its historical forebears’ gumption

Good morning ☀️ Today is day 77 of the REGIME. Every day that passes, FASCISM is normalized by the “government” & media. This is NOT democracy. DON’T BECOME NUMB. See ya in the Bluesky! 🦋💙

Oh sh*t.

One man just wiped out $10 trillion in wealth, is destroying centuries-old legal protections, and seems determined to unravel humanity’s greatest public health achievement. In 3 months. I don’t know how we get out of this. But if we do, one person can never have that kind of power again.

Last time he told you not "not to worry" half a million Americans died of Covid.

Cabinet member worth $500 million speaks. 🇺🇸 @nbcnews.com www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

How it started. Turn off FOX everywhere.

Trade deficit. I have bought food from say, Chilis. They have never bought food from me. There is a trade deficit with Chilis. I’m still doing fine. The trade deficit argument SOUNDS compelling, but it’s a straw man with no relevancy

Even NPR said, “Tens of thousands Americans took to the streets today….” When there were MILLIONS!

The most frustrating thing about this whole manufacturing bullshit tariff debacle is that there ARE good jobs that we need to be funding here have here that can’t be outsourced. It’s called the Green New Deal.

@schiff.senate.gov

The administration is a perfect storm of dumb people who enjoy inflicting pain and are addicted to psychotic cruelty and quadrupling down. It ends in total ruin if you don't impeach him.

Exactly. If you earn mere millions you should be on board with the Working Families Party, if only out of self interest.
