Shoutout to @repsummerlee.bsky.social for truth telling! “We cannot simply say that we will take away the opportunities for students to access loans and not replace it with anything else.” That’s the GOP’s whole plan: block access, bury us in debt, and force us into low-wage jobs with no way out.

Trump’s America

Crimes against humanity

Seems like a lot of prominent institutions didn’t really believe in diversity but were happy to pretend they did when it didn’t cost them any money.

What a fucking cluster fuck!

And Rump’s father repeatedly bailed him out

It has now been 56 days since the date that Trump promised he would easily end the war with one conversation, and the killing continues. He got in two rounds of golf this weekend though.

Senate Democratic leadership essentially played dead today and greenlit the Trump-Musk-Vance coup. What is the point of the Democratic Party if it doesn't actually act like an opposition party? Hello?

“While Elon Musk is firing $40,000 a year Park Rangers, Trump and his idiot people burned an astonishing $16M to briefly hold 290 people. I wish I was kidding but I am not.” #DOGEDisaster #TraitorTrump open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

These are the senators who collaborated with the GOP. Schumer Fetterman Cortez Masto Durbin King Shaheen Gillibrand Schatz Hassan Peters Don’t let them forget it. No peace for them.

Trump giving a speech at DOJ denouncing private citizens and saying it's illegal to run journalism that's critical of him, while simultaneously a big chunk of the Dem senate caucus votes to unilaterally give up the opposition's only political leverage over him Game over for the Democratic Party

Congratulations Chuck Schumer This is the guy to whom you just gave carte blanche “President Donald Trump..labeled his courtroom opponents “scum,” judges “corrupt” and the prosecutors who investigated him “deranged” These are people that are bad people..The people who did this..should go to jail”

@schumer.senate.gov Shame on you! You are a worm.

Chuck Schumer right now:

History will not be kind to the 9 Democrats who capitulated today.

It’s awesome that Senate Democrats are voting to pass Trump’s budget while he’s at the DOJ calling them a bunch of criminals and saying newspapers and MSNBC should be illegal. That’s great, good job guys.

Donald Trump called Chuck Schumer a Palestinian and Chuck Schumer responded with: The Art of the Kneel

Democrats need to take Nancy Pelosi's advice and "listen to the women" and oppose this Republican bill. Here's how to get Dems to listen now: shero.substack.com/p/emergency-...

Today Trump has tainted the Great Hall at the Department of Justice with baseless lies of weaponization of law enforcement and Jan 6 “hostages.” This is a dark day in American history.

Hey @schumer.senate.gov when Donald Trump is praising you that isn't a good thing, it means you fucked up royally. You folded like a cheap suit, and now he is openly mocking you. You still have time to stand on the right side of history. Hold The Damn Line, Do Not Obey In Advance.

Horrifying! 😡 @schumer.senate.gov just handed Trump/DOGE a “bipartisan” Dirty CR win to further destroy the lives of minorities, veterans, the disabled, women, children, education, Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security and so much more. Was a Thank You from the 🤡king worth selling us out, Chuck?

So basically we have (A) a fascist party and (B) a party that doesn't want to make too much of a fuss about the fascist party.

If the government can do this to universities, we don't live in a free society. Five alarm fire.

I cannot tell a lie.

We don't spend a penny on marketing. It's all word of mouth for @costplusdrugs.com That's how we keep prices so low. Please spread the word !

There’s a big exhale in the Democratic Party right now. Everyone has been collectively holding their breath. And finally we get to exhale and say: Fuck Chuck Schumer.

I’m calling for new leadership in the Democratic Party. So many democrats want to do the right thing, but leadership is stopping them with the unspoken threat of refusing to give them leadership positions down the road. NEW DEM LEADERSHIP NOW!! #NewDemLeadership

She was right about everything!

AOC: It is almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats would vote to to hand the few pieces of leverage that we have away for free when we've been sent here to protect social security, protect medicaid, and protect medicare.

This is not an impressive defense. Literally every “consequence” of a government shutdown is a description of things Trump and Musk are already doing

Absolutely

Khanna: Propaganda doesn’t work when the reality is terrible. What Biden had was an economy that was recovering, and we got hurt by propaganda. Now you actually have a terribly moving economy, and people are hurting. There’s no amount of things that Sean Hannity can say that’s going to pay the bills

The Best Government Oligarch Money Can Buy #ABlueView🧵1/3 "Elon Musk ... wants to put $100M into groups controlled by the Trump political operation ... It is unheard-of for a White House staffer ... to make such large political contributions to support the agenda of the boss."

Democratic leaders—take notes from Gov. Tony Evers! 🔥🔥🔥 When the GOP comes for our schools, our rights, our future, we fight back, loudly and boldly. No more soft responses—call out the attacks, expose the cruelty, and stand up for the people. #DoNotObeyInAdvance @govevers.wisconsin.gov

Call your Dem senators right now- urge them to vote NO on the continuing resolution. GOP needs 8 Dems to vote yes and so far only Fetterman secured. They Republicans have made the choice to shut down the govt by putting forth this horrible plan. Dems cannot be complicit in passing this. 202-224-3121

Yesterday, House Democrats held the line. Now, it's up to the Senate. While some Democrats are eager to play hardball with Trump, Chuck Schumer, and other senior Democrats remain skittish about fighting back against the Trump/Musk buzzsaw ripping through our government. 1/

Assholes

I’m old enough to remember when conservatives said Obama was going to ruin the White House by parking Escalades on the lawn. Now they’re perfectly fine with Trump hawking Teslas in the driveway.

👋 Hey Kids!!! Get ready to either laugh uproariously or sob inconsolably, cuz it's time for either the SUNDAY FUNNIES or the TRUTHFUL TRAGEDIES, depending on your own personal point-of-view. #Enjoy 🤣 (or) #Despair 😩

What’s happened to the “men” in the GOP? Why are they so beta and weak?

The USPS is the nation’s lifeline, ensuring delivery to every corner of the country. We cannot allow it to be dismantled, sold off, and handed over to Wall Street billionaires for profit. Privatization would increase costs, reduce access, and be an utter disaster.

For 50 years, the median wage of hourly workers stagnated or declined while the stock market and CEO pay skyrocketed. Is it any wonder so many feel abandoned by the system? People lose faith, and a demagogue fills the void. This is why we must fix the system.

Exactly
