Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

So Mitch McConnell won't be seeking re-election next year. Good riddance. He and Merrick Garland share much of the blame for this neo-fascistic second Trump term.

🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” 🇺🇸

Congrats, America. We're now on Putin's side.

We've gathered in solidarity wherever federal workers, federal programs and our Constitution are under attack. The majority will defend representative democracy against the cyberbarons.

These are the ads about Elon Musk that the Washington Post refused to run. The paper offered NO EXPLANATION. This is the problem with outlets that are CONTROLLED BY BILLIONAIRES focused on ingratiating themselves with Trump. Support independent media: muskwatch.com/subscribe

As I lay down for sleep, I wonder, what I would have done in a world without money? Who would I have been? I dream of a future where I could be that person. I dream of a future where people did everything out of the goodness in their heart. I wish people practiced love in all that they do.

Sen. Bernie Sanders announces launch of "new national campaign," called 'Fighting Oligarchy: Where We Go From Here' -- with first stops in Omaha, NE, and... Iowa City, IA

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

“‘Keep Marching, Keep Demanding': Rashida Tlaib and Delia Ramirez Urge Democrats to Fight Harder” Watch ⁦‪Prem Thakker’s video report for Zeteo from the protests in DC:

Just got back from my local Project 2025 protest here in Sioux Falls. It was freezing, but I was glad for all the people who stood there with me speaking the truth all Americans should be grappling with at home. These were the signs I brought. Hopefully they helped inspire and empower.

Republicans ran into the room to SHEILD Elon Musk from having to come and speak to Congress. They want their billionaire takeover done behind closed doors. The people deserve transparency. No one elected Elon Musk.

We're in the midst of a constitutional crisis. The world's richest man is effectively orchestrating a coup. At the very least, Senate Dems should not be confirming any of Trump’s nominees for any agency while this power grab continues. Nothing should be "business as usual."

Sorry but Kamala, Biden, the Democratic Establishment, their strategiests, the inability to learn for decades, the comfort with bigotry, the facilitating genocide, the lack of will... *That* cost the Democrats the election & landed us here long before then. Not Palestinians and their supporters.

@sanders.senate.gov Make Gaza Beautiful Again? Is this what we get bc of the Senate's gentleman agreement with Rubio? Please, no more playing nice. Don't give them an inch more. We need to start resisting every step of the way until this country ends its imperialist pursuits! Vote no until then

Anybody who is remotely okay with Trump saying the US "will take over" Gaza has fully dehumanized Palestinians. If China said they'll "take over" Alaska what would the reaction be? These are human beings with rights, they're talked about like mosquitos. Arrest the war criminals or humanity is doomed

NOBODY ELECTED ELON.

So much for no foreign wars.

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

Trump proudly announced an invasion, ethnic cleansing, and land theft next to a grinning war criminal. There is no horror too great for these demons.

Elon Musk Offers Self $10 Billion Federal Buyout theonion.com/elon-mu...

Given that both Disney and Marvel are companies built ENTIRELY on the backs of artists, this isn’t just unfortunate or embarrassing, it’s offensive.

The DNC needs to vote for this man to save themselves and our country! We need an FDR-style revolution, and I see it starting here. Grassroots is the future. Time to stand up to the obscenely wealthy and make it known this is our democracy. One that stands for the common person. Not the elites.

Halting spending approved by Congress. Firing independent inspectors general from federal agencies. Replacing civil servants with loyalists. All plans pulled from Project 2025. Remember when Trump denied knowing about the playbook and the media gave him a pass?

Pathetic. Spineless. Soulless.

This blatantly illegal move by the Trump Administration should have severe consequences. None of his remaining cabinet picks should receive a single Democratic vote until all is remedied and we can ensure this won’t happen again. Congress holds the power of spending, not him.

I'm not going to recommend everyone do as I have done quite yet... But I recently deleted my Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. I felt the PR stunts by the heads of each alone was enough for me to be justified in that decision. Each of those platforms effectively bowed down to Trump. I will not bow.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.
