I am a nerd, & I share things that mainly Americans need to hear & understand. Sometimes that's song lyrics, sometimes that is a foul-mouthed statement opposing what is happening. I am ♿️ & broke & can't donate any $ (Feel free to steal my memes)

Nationwide organizing (like our work to help mobilize millions last weekend) takes a lot of resources, so our resistance grows bigger and better when you pitch in. Please consider a donation to build momentum and fuel our organizing during the congressional recess: secure.actblue.com/donate/indiv...

If you’ve never heard Whoopi Goldberg tell the story of how she came to be cast in the film adaptation of Dr. Alice Walker’s “The Color Purple,” you should definitely watch this. This right here. This Black Culture. This is Community. We are truly a remarkable people. 🖤🖤

'Shocked' FDA staffers walked out on RFK Jr.'s slur-ridden speech: report www.rawstory.com/kennedy-fda/

AOC: We must acknowledge the terrifying moment we are in right now. What we are hearing and seeing with our own eyes is, in fact, happening. We are watching our neighbors, students, and friends being fired, targeted, and disappeared. It is real.

Will just leave this clip here of Kris Kristofferson, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings talking about what’s wrong with America from a 1991 interview and it’s still all very true today

Marjorie Taylor Greene buying Apple, Pi, Qualcomm, Dell, Amazon, and Lam stocks seems a lot more sus before the tariff exemptions on electronics components, smartphones, semiconductors, and computers. Martha Stewart would like a word.

MASSIVE crowd joins Bernie Sanders and AOC. RALLY AGAISNT OLIGARCHY!!!! WE THE PEOPLE ARE READY FOR IT. 🇺🇸🗽✊🏼✊🏽✊🏻✊🏿✊🏾

Truth...

DC RUMORS: MTG and her mother are being investigated for insider trading.

I said it before and I’ll say it again: Target not only turned its back on diversity it spit in our faces. My wife and I haven’t been back since January — and we won’t be. We take our money where people like us are seen, valued, and respected. Solidarity ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏻

Senator Sanders and Reps. Ocasio-Cortes, Jayapal, and Khanna rising to the occasion.

I, for what it's worth, am not one who would normally suggest or promote the Burning of Books. But this list would make a Beautiful Bonfire. These are all books with the "author" being Donald Trump The America We Deserve Trump: The Art of the Comeback The Art of the Deal

A witch hunt is underway. We’ve faced many before. Take a breath. Stay grounded.

This is a couple of months old, but I just saw it for the first time a moment ago. These MFs don't want any diversity whatsoever. I have a question: Don Jr. has dark hair and brown eyes. Is that even allowed in their vision for America?

Let’s send food safety inspectors to the coal mines’

Fed up of this hypocrisy!

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

My law firm is currently litigating 49 voting and election cases in 21 states. States with the most cases: AZ, GA, NC, NV, FL, LA, PA. I expect new cases will be filed this week.

Just in case those of us fighting for democracy in court didn't need another challenge, Big Law turning collaborators is here and growing. My firm and others continue to fight. We will never back down. We will never bend a knee. We will never obey.

Donold sends people with soccer tattoos to El Salvador and lets people with swastika tattoos go free.

What’s the FIRST name that comes to your mind?

the transfer to El Salvador of US deportees is, per Pres Bukele, a straight up contract that has “nothing to do w/foreign policy.” The fees we are paying makes their entire prison system “sustainable.” Don’t see how US can make argument that bringing A-G back is some sensitive foreign policy matter

#BREAKING: Over 36,000 people rallied in Los Angeles today in support of @sanders.senate.gov and @aoc.bsky.social’s OLIGARCHY TOUR — setting a record as their largest stop on this tour.

Meet Anthony Schmidt, a 16-year-old with #autism who turns #miniature #cars into life-sized works of #art through his incredible #photography

House sparrows go completely silent and disappear from my yard whenever a hawk flies over. They don’t help the hawk. I wish US voters were as smart as birds.

@warren.senate.gov: "State attorneys general have the same opportunity to investigate, dig in, get what the facts are. So for example, Letitia James, the NY attorney general, which has jurisdiction over the stock market and the trading that happens in NY, might decide she would take a look at this."

So the House passed a law that bars non-citizens from voting, which is already illegal, but also puts millions of women’s voting rights in peril. My goodness, must have been an accidental side effect … right? #ProudBlie

Eighteen months before the midterms, the Republican National Committee is litigating more than 40 cases aimed at making voting more difficult. In North Carolina, the GOP is literally trying to steal a state Supreme Court seat won by a Democrat last November.

Garcia: She's playing cosplaying as an ice agent, running around the country, going down to El Salvador, to prisons. You know, holding guns, dressing up. She is a joke
