AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

20,000 in ruby red Utah on their feet, in community, and ready to organize for a better world. A better world is possible.

Kinda hard to see a free and fair 2028 election where she doesn’t win by a lot.

The United States is the richest country in the history of the world. But who benefits from those riches? Consider: the richest 10% of Americans hold nearly 70% of the nation’s wealth – while the bottom 50% hold just 3%. See the problem?

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act. Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes? Staffer: a DL and birth certificate. Me: The documents don’t match Staffer: Then a marriage certificate. Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too? Staffer: No Me: See the problem?

The European Union and China are now starting negotiations to abolish EU tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles. This is a major strategic failure for the United States.

This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.

Who like Thai food Chicago ?

America is solidly in our, “Scream ourselves to sleep, shit ourselves awake” era.

Senator Jim Banks (R) isn’t sorry he told a fired federal worker “he probably deserved it”. He went on to say the worker was “complaining about losing a left-wing woke job in the federal government that should have never been a job to begin with”. The job was helping people with disabilities.

Attention White House: Thou shalt not joke about how you sent an innocent father of 3 to a gulag while his autistic son smells his shirts to remember him.

1) Fox News is for real not showing stock-market ticker during this week's collapse. 2) Its economic news is "strong jobs report." 3) Every time I've checked in today, the coverage has been "illegal immigrants committing new crimes." This is state propaganda, on a par with North Korea or PRC.

The Trump regime has put a 10% tariff on the Heard Island and McDonald which is inhabited only by Penguins. The majestic Penguin has become the first nonhuman in history to enter a trade war with the United States.

Senator Bernie Sanders is going off on the Senate floor: "Today, it is 31 days and counting with absolutely no humanitarian aid getting into Gaza...That is a clear violation of the Geneva Convention, the Foreign Assistance Act, and basic human decency. It is a war crime! You don't starve children!"

The US should be embarrassed that elders are having to protest. A nation that can no longer protect the most vulnerable is no longer a nation but a collection of savages.

Booker: Strom Thurmond’s record always kind of just really irked me. That the longest speech on our great Senate floor was from someone who was trying to stop people like me from being in the Senate. So to surpass that became more important to me.

Donald Trump has informed his inner circle and members of his Cabinet that Elon Musk will step down from his role soon. Unsurprising, since Elon is classified as a "special government employee," he is only allowed to hold the role at DOGE for 130 days a year. Good riddance!

Senator Cory Booker is riffing about MLK Jr. on the Senate floor nearly 20 hours into his filibuster. He's so good at this! Thank you, Cory! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Senator Cory Booker has started his 18th hour of a filibuster on the Senate floor. Thank you, Cory, for standing up for our veterans and the VA! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Cory Booker

He was a broke AF conman the first time he ran. 🔗: from 2020: The last eight years, the tax documents for the president show Trump has borrowed $100m against Trump Tower in Manhattan, $160m on his hotel in Washington and $148m on the Doral golf resort. It is unclear how Trump will service them.

To everyone saying to “ignore” what he’s saying because “it will never happen”…you are why we lose.

Judge Susan Crawford just dropped a video against her opponent for a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court: "How corrupt is Brad Schimel?" Get out and vote for her, Wisconsin! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

*gazes wistfully out a window*

From Detroit to NYC, now is the time to organize! dsausa.org/join

This is what corruption looks like.

Our economy is far larger than it was decades ago. Where have most of the gains gone? To the top. Any path forward must include a fight to restructure the economy toward more widely shared prosperity. This isn’t a blue state vs. red state phenomenon. It’s a class phenomenon.

used to not have toilets, shade or drinking water cause bosses said it was too expensive. With pesticides we would work too close to the spray. Thanks to Cesar Chavez they changed those things. Join us in marching for Cesar Chávez - Francisco, CA farmworker, 28 yrs #WeFeedYou

Bingo

Vance lecturing Denmark on Greenland is peak ignorance. Greenland governs itself, opposes U.S. control, and doesn’t need a history lesson from someone who clearly skipped theirs. Sit down.

Danish warships now patrolling Greenland to protect against a Trump led US invasion. #StandWithGreenland

We will not be distracted. We will not be discouraged. We’ve got our eyes on the prize. And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve. The time to organize is now. OcasioCortez.com

This is illegal: Musk announced in an overnight post on X that he’ll hand out million-dollar checks at a Sunday night event in Wisconsin—but only to those who voted in the state’s Supreme Court election. Why is Elon so invested in this race? Tesla is facing legal challenges in Wisconsin.

A Tufts University student and a Fulbright scholar, Runeysa Ozturk, was snatched off of the streets by masked agents for criticizing U.S. foreign policy. Why are these cowards hiding their faces? I thought MAGA has effectively banished masks? Unreal.

. @detroitcityfc.bsky.social plans to move from Keyworth Stadium to a new Corktown pitch. First, it must demolish a vacant hospital. @patbatcheller.bsky.social reports ⚽️

NALC President Brian Renfroe on USPS's important role as a public service: "We serve everyone, everywhere, no matter where they live, for the same price every day.” 💯 Letter carriers & community members nationwide have sent a clear message — #HELLNO to dismantling USPS! fortune.com/2025/03/25/e...

Democratic House Rep. Chrissy Houlahan: "Show us the money. Show us the receipts. Don't edit it. Don't redact it. Don't disappear it. Release it, and release it right now. But we know they won't do that either. They're lying about what happened...they're gaslighting us" Boom! 🔥

Because of the pay gap, women have lost out on more than $60 trillion in wages since 1967. Yes, trillion. On an hourly basis, women were paid 18.0% less on average than men in 2024. We must ensure fair wages for all.

Bernie’s instincts for deeply normie-style politics like this are really under appreciated. His term as Mayor had a lot to do with it, I think. But for all his ideological zeal, he does a ton of very basic stuff like this. You really can’t have one without the other.

Only in the US would harming an inanimate object be considered violence, while denying millions of people essential services leading to their certain deaths is only considered a 'bad policy'. #3E #EndAutogenocide

Pete Hegseth never should have been tapped for this job. It's too important. He should be fired immediately.

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

When a Tesla dealership gets shot at they send ICE. When a school gets shot at they send thoughts and prayers.
