This is how it’s done! FRIDAY: South Park, San Diego, neighbors weren’t having it. When ICE rolled up on an Italian restaurant in unmarked cars and started grabbing workers, the community hit the streets. (Sound up)

kind of obsessed with 2025 pride merch...I'm calling it cowardcore.

THIS is how you do messaging, give people what they want (need), AND show you are working for ALL of your constituents regardless of voter affiliation. No gatekeeping. No smoke and mirrors. Just good local policy with a solid on the ground message. Great job you two!

OPM memo: Fed job applicants must now pledge in writing to implement Trump's political agenda. The final step in the Authoritarian playbook on the civil service: ✅ Purges disguised as "efficiency" ✅ Gut oversight agencies ✅ Weaken regulatory enforcement ➡️ Replace experts with loyalists ← UNDERWAY

Just about every Republican/Trumpist complaint about public transportation is a poorly disguised version of “there are too many black people.”

MUST WATCH: ICE kidnapped a disabled American citizen. Her name is Alma Bowman. Born in the Philippines while her dad served in the U.S. Navy. She’s lived here 48 years. They crashed her wheelchair, denied meds, cut her off from her lawyer—and jailed her. She. Is. A. Citizen.

Just call it the Self-Inflicted Wound Era, when we took a bunch of stuff that was working largely fine (vaccines, weather monitoring, friendly relations with like 175 countries, cancer research, renewable energy credits, the FAA, global trade, etc etc) and just broke them for giggles

This is a senior Justice Department official. Who is in charge of pardons. And also in charge of investigating the “politicization” of the Justice Department.

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

A new poll shows that if AOC would beat Chuck Schumer in a Democratic primary in 2028 by TWENTY ONE POINTS. I truly hope she runs for that Senate seat. His words and deeds have proven him to be utterly ineffective in fighting the clear and present fascist danger.

“The Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion." — 1797 Treaty of Tripoli, unanimously ratified by the US Senate, signed by President Adams Comments like Johnson’s are what happens when you ban books instead of reading them.

More than two years ago, Utah Republicans commissioned a study on gender-affirming care for youth. It just came back, and the conclusion is unambiguous: full recommendation in support of gender-affirming care. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
