The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents. What the fuck are we doing here?

Dear Canada- Please accept our deepest apologies from all decent Americans embarrassed by the obnoxious trolling from our man-baby-in-chief who is lacking in both intelligence & any impulse-control whatsoever. ❤️ from your neighbors below, 🇺🇸 #MakeAmericaNormalAgain

Senate Dem Whip Dick Durbin: "Now is the time for my Republican colleagues to step up. You can no longer stay silent in the face of a constitutional crisis. You must join Democrats in responding to this madness and demanding that Mr. Abrego Garcia is returned to the United States immediately."

I am calling for a total and complete shutdown of detainees being removed from the United States to foreign prisons until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on.

If Stephen Miller can lie about Abrego Garcia and his case on national TV, he can do it in federal court under oath. Judge Xinis should demand his appearance, question him under oath, then jail him for Contempt when he commits Perjury. This lawless administration has to be subjected to rule of law.

The president told a Central American dictator to build five more massive slave labor camps to hold US citizens.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

The most corrupt administration in American history wants you to look the other way from this. We can't. We need answers.

Members of Congress should never be allowed to trade stocks. Period.

My hometown paper ☕️💅🏽

And there it is. Senator Cory Booker makes history-- the longest standing filibuster in US history at 24 hours 19 minutes and counting. Good trouble.

Senator Cory Booker has now been pounding Trump and the MAGA agenda for TWENTY FOUR HOURS on the Senate floor. It has become front page news on all TV networks, major news websites, and sites like Reddit. His team has put out clips and transcripts for 24 hours. Extraordinary planning & execution

Breaking: Cory Booker has officially delivered the longest Senate floor speech in US history, surpassing Strom Thurmond’s filibuster against the Civil Rights Act.

BREAKING: SENATOR CORY BOOKER BREAKS RECORD FOR LONGEST SPEECH ON FLOOR OF U.S. SENATE

Thank you, Senator Cory Booker! #Resist

@booker.senate.gov has been speaking on the Senate floor for more than 20 HOURS and counting. #RESPECT

YouGov poll: 74% Americans — including 60% of Republicans — say the Trump admin's use of the Signal chat to discuss military strikes is a serious problem.

Another disgusting part of all of this is the proof a blatant war crime to which the Vice President of the United States responded: Excellent.

So, which is it? If this info wasn’t classified, that in itself would be a scandalous screw-up that must be explained. And if it was classified, then the Trump administration lied to Congress and to the American people.

Tucson, Arizona today. Original projected attendance was 3,000 people. 23,000 showed up.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!” @USRepMikeFlood: “So your proposal to solve (the debt) is tax the rich?” NEBRASKA CROWD: *CHEERS WILDLY* (not sure this went quite as he planned 😬)

Murphy: "If we continue to observe norms, if we continue to engage in business as usual, this democracy could be gone. I don't think we have a year to save American democracy. I think the way the president is acting ... puts out democracy at immediate risk."

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

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?

AOC on senate Dems caving and backing the CR: “A wide sense of betrayal.”

They literally just told everyone in the dept of education to not come to work!!! They are already doing this!!!

ARE YOU KIDDING ME? WHAT THE FUCK, CHUCK?

So tired of crosses hanging from the necks of people supporting cruelty, starvation, disease and fascism.

I'm voting NO on the Republican shutdown bill. NO on handing Donald Trump and Elon Musk a blank check to spend your taxpayer money however they want. NO on cutting funding that helps families put food on the table and crack down on wealthy tax cheats. We need to push back.

A top economics reporter goes off script on national TV: “I am going to say this at risk of my job, but what President Trump is doing is insane.”

I'm old enough to remember when polio ripped through the globe and put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. RFK Jr leading HHS is a disgrace.

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget. Really think about how twisted this all is.

Breaking❗Donald Trump is gutting the Department of Education by laying off about half of its staff. This is a direct attack on our schools, our students, and our educators. We MUST fight back to protect our kids and communities.

US added to the global human rights watchlist due to declining civil liberties.

I need y'all to sit with this headline and understand what is being done to our community. They're trying to criminalize our very existence. This is a campaign of eradication. www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/rcna...

some helpful reminders: -not all jews support israel -criticizing israel is not the same as being antisemitic -being pro-palestine does not equal being pro-hamas -arresting someone for being pro-palestine is a violation of the first amendment -violating someone’s first amendment rights is bad
