You okay with this, ladies?

'It’s already in the cards': Trump impeachment urged by WSJ editorial board member , wake up people, this is the wall street journal ! www.rawstory.com/trump-impeac...

TRUMP. IS. INSANE.

CDC unable to respond to lead crisis due to funding cuts.

We have not done a great job of countering the lies created by the right and their surrogates.

This is a concession by the U.S. government that its “arrangement” with El Salvador is irrevocable. To me this has to be grounds to argue that the arrangement itself is unconstitutional under the Fifth and Eighth Amendments

This is a valid observation!

AOC: And his whole presidency began with launching tools for bribery, meme coins to fleece working people and move around money in the dark, extortion settlements from media companies and law firms who gladly pay them

The funds had been initially withheld following President Trump's clash with Maine Gov. Janet Mills over the issue of transgender athletes.

Donold sends people with soccer tattoos to El Salvador and lets people with swastika tattoos go free.

This right here 🔥 “If there was market manipulation, it is a crime. Someone needs to go to jail… I want the documents. I want the Signal chats too, because I don’t trust them — that they weren’t sharing all this information across their Signal chats.” – @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social

impressive results from banning cars

The North Carolina Supreme Court ruled that approximately 5,000 military and overseas voters should have to cure their ballots to have them counted in the 2024 state Supreme Court election. Justice Riggs is now asking the federal courts to intervene. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Something my mind cannot stop thinking about is that in the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Trump admin ADMITTED that he was wrongfully deported and they they still are fighting as hard as they can to not bring an innocent man home because it will make them look bad.

Sometimes there are so many bad things happening at once we find ourselves in a state of shock…trying to comprehend what is happening…

A sad irony of the corporatization of farming in rural areas near me is knowing that many Big Agribiz farms recruit and house immigrant laborers on their properties. ICE raids have been bad not only for business, but also for local economies where workers spend their earnings.

Bluesky seems to be slowing down, don’t let it. Keep posting Keep sharing Keep commenting Interaction is key

This is well documented

🚨NEW: The NC Supreme Court's GOP majority will retroactively nullify 2,000 to 7,000 ballots from military and overseas voters unless they quickly prove their identity—but only those who voted in a few Democratic counties. Could overturn Justice Riggs' victory. appellate.nccourts.org/orders.php?t...

Arrest Noem and Homan for contempt of court. Detain TFN.

The United States is the richest country in the history of the world. But who benefits from those riches? Consider: the richest 10% of Americans hold nearly 70% of the nation’s wealth – while the bottom 50% hold just 3%. See the problem?

Wow. Who could have seen this coming? It's not like he was critical of FEMA in the aftermath of Helene. Oh,wait...

WATCH: After suffering through misguided pushback from her mostly male Republican colleagues — who have no medical degrees — Rep. Rudder (R) passed her bill to protect IVF & contraceptives in Tennessee through the House with bipartisan support.

Your senators and representative are back home for another congressional recess. We’re organizing hundreds of rallies to turn up the heat on Republicans who are trying to gut Medicaid and SNAP in order to fund tax cuts for billionaires. Join us: indivisible.org/muskorus

Sanders: Instead of spending $1 trillion a year on the military, let’s build 5 million units of low income and affordable housing..

I would like to point out that the executive branch claiming the power to mete out life/death sentences seems like a separation of powers issue as well

I would LOVE to be in attendance at this event!!

Trump's $5 million visa

Great showing on James Island in #SouthCarolina today! These are some of my favorite pics but there are a lot more coming! We the people are pissed off and hitting the streets every damn weekend!

The SAVE Act is a poll tax on women. Pass it on.

This is what Musk and DOGE have *actually* tried to do: -- Kill USAID (investigating Starlink) -- Kill CFPB (regulator for X to be payment app) -- Move $2.3 BILLION contract from Verizon to Starlink -- Force Social Security Administration to use X exclusively 100% CORRUPTION
