We Fired Kings Back in '76 – A Defiant Folk Anthem for Truth & Democracy youtu.be/fEoQb6sEkJ8?...

Damn‼️ Federal agents blew a door off for this? Federal agents blasted their way into an LA home where Jenny Ramirez lives with her boyfriend and two kids. She heard the blast while checking on her 6-year-old, with her 1-year-old in her arms. Ramirez says everyone in the home is a U.S. citizen. 🧵

MAGA hates Mamdami because they fear the man. Candidates like him are the way we send MAGA back to their warrens and hidey holes.

If Jeff Bezos can afford to rent Venice for a $50 million wedding, he can afford to pay his fair share in taxes.

How it started vs how its going. This is an excellent development from Ottawa. Canada needs to lead in drone manufacturing in North America and starting a joint defense production industry with Ukraine is an excellent first step to making that happen. #cdnpoli #StandWithCanada

Illegals are trying to hide their identities by posing as Trump supporters. It is not possible to determine their legal status by sight. If you see someone wearing trump merch or hats, please report them as they could likely be breaking the law.

150 pro-Palestine activists got duped by a US born Kremlin agent James "Fergie" Chambers. He convinced the group to enter a Belgian factory making military gear for Ukraine, smashing computers and damaging vehicles. The activists believed they were disrupting supplies to Israel.

Leftist worldwide need to do better to distance themselves from obvious Russian agents. Russia doesn't give a shit about Palestine, the environment, feminism, or LGBTQ rights, however, if it sees an opening to take advantage of your anger it will take it.

If the first word you see as your enemy is liberal, communist, socialist, far-leftists while the fascists are taking or have taken over all our institutions and armed forces, then you are an absolute idiot that is failing to meet the dangers and seriousness of our present reality. We are in a war.

When you fight each other instead of the fascists, imagine two frogs arguing about the temperature of boiling water.

Right now there are Israeli & Russian troll farms trying to drive a wedge between people worldwide, they understand that the diversity of the western left is easy to co-op and how to create tribal divisions that make you act against your mutual interests. The fascists are united, you should be too.

the only thing keeping Trump v US from topping the list of worst Supreme Court decisions imo is that it hasn’t (yet) led to the dissolution of the United States washingtonmonthly.com/2025/06/27/i...

Fuck Doug Collins ~ A Veteran

MUST WATCH: Oceanside CA: Militarized DHS (HSI) smashed windows, assault rifles drawn, tossed flashbangs and sent drones into the apartment which had 2 kids inside. They then told neighbors they were going to use tear gas, and they’d probably be exposed. Please share widely. WTF

Breaking: The Senate just blocked a Democratic resolution that would have forced Trump to go to Congress for approval of further military action against Iran.

Again, these wins are really important--and a testament to the work of Wyden and his staffers.

Charlie Kirk. What a weird guy. 🤣🤣

NEW: In a sweeping rebuke of President Donald Trump’s campaign of retribution against law firms that challenged his political agenda, a federal judge Friday struck down in its entirety an executive order issued by Trump that targeted a powerful law firm. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Who takes more handouts then the red states. If it wasn't for the blue states America would be bankrupt.

Nostalgia feels like a warm blanket, but guess what? Blankets smother if you never kick them off. I talk about how capitalism gentrified play, how algorithms spoon‑feed our memories back to us, & why every damn reboot is basically just a “u up?” text from the past. #blog #nostalgia #gaming

The Democrats just had their Tea Party moment. Can the establishment survive or are we headed towards a new type of politics? open.substack.com/pub/greattra...

Why are so many US citizens being arrested by ICE and what happens to them once detained? open.substack.com/pub/greattra...

U.S. Citizens Spend on Average 180 days in ICE Detention when wrongfully detained! Spend a couple seconds watching this 👇🏽 youtube.com/shorts/9xjOv...

Every branch of government’s been compromised. That’s not a warning, it’s a fact. We’re sliding into authoritarianism like it’s on sale. And Fox “News”? They paid $787.5 million just to keep lying with a straight face. The country’s cracking, and the people in charge brought the sledgehammers.

Could you prove you’re a US citizen if pulled over by ICE? It’s a lot harder than you think. Listen to this episode of The Latino Vote with reporter Jack Herrera. This will shock you. youtube.com/watch?v=w6eT...

When they can’t deport people fast enough, they’ll figure out alternative ways to get rid of them. The holocaust started with deportations and citizenship stripping. It’s not new. #3E

ICE Detention centres - Brought to you by people who claim to be Pro-Life! Sister Joan Chittister was right.

#LosAngeles #ICE #Cudahy ⬇️ Shit like this is exactly why Mayor of Cudahy calls for more people in our protests. People are dying & OUR Children are scarred. We need ALL hands on deck for #Resist & uniting our Communities for the common good. #BlockParty

Dems Decry GOP's $15 Billion Rural Hospital Fund as Sick Joke Compared to $800 Billion in Medicaid Cuts www.commondreams.org/news/gop-meg...

He didn't really say that though. That might be what they heard, but that's not what he was saying. And we VERY OFTEN hear what we want to hear from politicians rather than what they are saying. Especially if we like them.

“Is there any sign of life?” “Have we heard a heartbeat?” “Does she feel any kicking?” “We don’t have the equipment to do that.” That’s the full 911 audio from a nurse inside an ICE detention center near Denver, calling for help as a four-months-pregnant woman bled and cried out in pain.

Yes, I agree — it would be terrible. Please do NOT share this information!!!

Corporate profits have hit record highs. CEOs are paid 290x as much as a typical worker. We're subsidizing huge corporations that pay lousy wages through food stamps and Medicaid. But instead of cracking down on corporate greed, Republicans want to punish the working poor.

Warren Accuses Bisignano of Misleading Public on Social Security Call Wait Times in Wake of DOGE Cuts www.commondreams.org/news/warren-...

Statistically and clinically accurate!!!!! Ive met many sex offenders as a therapist, co- led a group made up of people who were on probation for that specifically where we focused on staying out of jail and prosocial stuff. None of the people i met were part of the LGBTQ+ community.

As we (democracy-loving Americans) have been saying, this racist, rapist, fascist, MAGA regime feels it can now target anyone - including us, simply because they don't want us here. They can't tolerate dissent, or democracy. www.newsweek.com/house-republ...

Every single Democratic elected who represents NYC should be proudly endorsing Zohran Mamdami, who won the primary fair & square. They should be helping him however he & his team ask. If they mealy-mouth it or, worse, stand with Cuomo, *they* will be why people hate the party.

Walmart and Home Depot have decided to cooperate with ICE. 🤬 Both companies are allowing ICE agents to come onto their premises to arrest innocent shoppers. If you weren’t boycotting them before, you can add them to your list!!

Certainly close enough to the real truth!

NEWS: In Newsom v. Trump, Judge Breyer finds that he has jurisdiction to consider a preliminary injunction based on Posse Comitatus Act grounds — and grants California’s request for discovery on that issue.
