We cannot move on from what happened yesterday. A Senator being roughed up and handcuffed for trying to ask a question is what you see in a DICTATORSHIP. Our country is at a crossroads and we need EVERY American to stand up to defend freedom, democracy and our Constitution.

Any time a woman thinks she's unqualified to run for office, show her this

U.S. agents suspected Bukele and some in his inner circle of diverting USAID funds to MS-13 leaders. Agents sought to review any U.S. bank accounts held by 15 Salvadoran political figures including Bukele, other senior officials and their relatives.

Easily the bleakest thing I’ve read this week. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/13/t...

How many times has this happened already? How many times will it happen in the coming years? The idiots who fired the competent people suddenly realize they are out of their depth.

Anti-"warmonger" Republicans today

The first known detention by the US Marines in their recent Los Angeles deployment is of... a US Army veteran on his way to an office at the Department of Veteran Affairs building. www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

<thread> On the left: June 12, Judge Breyer writing that THE test for whether the US Marines/Guard violate Posse Comitatus will be whether they've engaged in "detaining" civilians. On the right: June 13: See for yourself. Note: The DoD has confirmed the detention of civilian to Reuters.

I ask the people of Washington state to join us in protecting our state by ensuring that demonstrations over the weekend are peaceful. In times like this, it's not just a right that people have to express their opinions about their government. In my opinion, it's a duty. It's that important.

BREAKING @prri.org poll. My disturbing take: It’s virtually impossible to write a survey question about the treatment of immigrants that is too brutal for Republicans to support. 1) 8 in 10 Republicans support renditions of immigrants to foreign prisons without due process. prri.org/spotlight/ne...

I visited a food bank in Seattle today to hear from people who rely on SNAP & Medicaid. I’ll be sharing their stories everywhere I can—but let me just say it’s just WRONG that Republicans want to cut health care & nutrition to give tax breaks to billionaires who don’t need them. Keep speaking out.

Medicaid work requirements have not triggered much if any opposition from Republican lawmakers. But, they would have huge effects on insurance coverage. CBO projects 4.8 million more uninsured people. www.cbo.gov/system/files...

JFC...specifically recruiting arrested development douchewits with the emotional control of sewer rats. That would explain how US cities have racked up a few BILLION dollars in legal liability over the past decade, to mention the _least_ of the consequences.

So it’s war — not a surgical strike.

Democrats who voted to confirm Noem: John Fetterman (PA) Maggie Hassan and Jeanne Shaheen (NH, "live derp or die") Tim Kaine (VA) Andy Kim (NJ) Gary Peters (MI) Elissa Slotkin (MI)

this is not legal advice but there are like twenty circuit court cases holding that you do in fact have a first amendment right to record the police

Look, it’s simply an incredible string of coincidences that so many Republican officials turn out to be pedophiles.

When reich-wingers said they would "protect" women, every single women's shelter should have raised money to harden security.

I am outraged by how Sen. Padilla was treated today. How can it be in the United States of America that a senator elected by the people of his state who wants to have his voice heard on behalf of his constituents is handcuffed and thrown to the ground? It's not acceptable. youtu.be/j7nvS_zoCmA

House Republicans just voted to cut off public radio broadcasts, defund your local PBS station, and rip away lifesaving aid and bipartisan investments to advance U.S. interests around the world. I'll be doing everything I can to defeat this bill as it comes to the Senate.
