@theweeknightmsnbc.bsky.social Trump’s cabinet is filled with Fox News hosts. He just needs to task one of them to present the PDB. Voila, a cleared Fox News host presents PDB with existing resources. Maybe Pete Hegseth or Jeanine Pirro? @symonedsanders.bsky.social

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.

Yes. And doling it out to Ukraine at $25 billion a month would create steady pressure on Putin to get serious as Russia’s sovereign wealth trove slips away.

When you realize you are collateral damage to your own cruelty.

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy. Now is the time for fearless leadership.

41% of babies’ births are covered by Medicaid. 49% of children are covered by Medicaid or CHIP. 62% of long-term care residents in nursing homes are covered by Medicaid. 35% of people with disabilities are covered by Medicaid. HANDS OFF MEDICAID.

This is how Trump is corrupting our republic to attain his objectives. He’s creating an atmosphere where he pretends to follow the law, but defies it against victims. Like violating the constitution and ignoring court orders to rendition people to 3rd countries.

No one is safe from ICE rendition away from America 47 admin is using the Silicon Valley “move fast & break stuff” work process but won’t fix what they break🤷🏻‍♂️ When ICE learned they’d detained a US citizen, they made up some new allegations rather than just apologizing.

The GOP Tax Scheme represents the largest wealth transfer from the poor to the rich in American history.

AOC: When you wake up in the morning, you will realize that you voted to defund planned parenthood and take away health care from 13.7 million Americans and when this country wakes up there will be consequences to pay for this

Diseases are spreading. The CDC isn't warning the public like it was... "What's undermines the credibility of CDC communications..is the..cessation of...apolitical public health messages in favor of messages that amplify the secretary. That makes it a political channel." www.npr.org/2025/05/21/n...

#ETTD and America isn’t immune from this fate🤨 He’s crashing the US economy and the world is fleeing from investing in America. How quickly American exceptionalism has been undermined and brought to its knees😔

Diseases are still spreading, and the CDC isn’t warning the public🤷🏻‍♂️

Donald Trump campaigned on the promise that he was going to deport the millions of “dangerous illegal aliens” living in America. All I’ve seen, are heavily armed, masked agents kidnapping scores of people who are legally living in the United States.

We would be better off if Joe Biden was still president (even incapacitated) than the chaos the current occupant has caused. The global economy, the US government, and the safety and security of the American people have all been compromised by a vengeful little man and his billionaire donor.

PETE BUTTIGIEG: "We are living in a time of enormous importance. We have to do our part to make sure the America flag and everything done in its name lives up to its promise. That's the job of every soldier, sailor, airmen, & marine -- but also the job of every citizen." @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

If he gets his way, America will be belching out toxic pollution from smoke stacks across the country, our skies will return to a hazy orange-brown and our waterways will become toxic reminiscent of the 1970’s when pollution abounded and the environment sickened all life.

“We must not forget what the “S” in NWS stands for - Service. Whether you are in a rural community or a big city, their service is unwavering when they have the appropriate resources. No your app can’t replace them. Your app depends on their service too.” — @drshepherd2013.bsky.social

Yesterday & today mark two major Supreme Court decisions. Tomorrow, we owe it to our children to teach them the complete story of Civil Rights—not a sanitized version of history. There is still work to be done. In classrooms. On Civil Rights. We cannot go back. @lwvus.bsky.social @lwvva.bsky.social

Republicans can't stop being weird about my campaign and a recent piece by the Chicago Contrarian encapsulated just how lame and triggered these dudes are: www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RUt...

“We have forgotten that public education isn’t something that was forced upon us; it is something that we, in our collective wisdom, chose to build…Knowledge is how you become less afraid.” #NHPolitics newhampshirebulletin.com/2025/05/14/m...

⚡️EU has alternative plans if Hungary vetoes Ukraine's accession, Kallas says. The EU would like to secure unanimous support, but it has alternative plans if Hungary vetoes Ukraine's accession to the bloc, EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said on May 9.
