We don’t have massive federal debt because of Social Security & Medicare. We have massive federal debt because the rich don't pay their fair share of taxes. Now R's want to make major cuts to SS to give rich people more tax breaks. #ProudBlue #HandsOffMyMedicaid #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

If you care about abortion access, voting rights, and the future of Wisconsin, you should care about the WI Supreme Court election! We can’t let conservatives who want to ban abortion and roll back our rights take control of the court. 🗳️ Vote for Judge Susan Crawford on April 1.

The most notable thing about this clip from the president's address to the governors is the way Maine Gov. Janet Mills stood up to Trump. And the second most notable thing is the absolute stone-faced silence from the other governors in the room. www.c-span.org/clip/white-h...

Decades of sacrifice and work by generations of men and women across the globe up in smoke. Truly tragic. Tens of millions of American voters squandered the legacy of their parents and grandparents for the thrill of racism and “owning the libs.”

Modern-Day Peaceful Protest… TikTokers are hunting Cybertrucks—pulling up behind them and projecting anti-Elon Musk messages onto the tailgate. What’s genius: the driver has zero rear visibility & zero idea. The Cybertruck Hunters account launched a week ago and already dropped a dozen videos.

I've spent a lot of time rambling around Oregon's second district, which takes up two thirds of our state and is as rural and Republican as it gets... if they're shouting "tax the rich" and "tax Elon" in LaGrande, something is definitely happening here.

They are telling us, out loud, exactly how the 2026/28 elections will not be free & fair. They will go after vote by mail (bsky.app/profile/mira...). They will go after computer voting. They will then say we can't count all the paper ballots because it's taking too long & there must be fraud. Etc.

Americans proposed that Ukraine concede half of the profits from its mineral rights in perpetuity... in exchange for essentially nothing. This is not a monetary proposition, let alone a "deal," but rather the demand that Ukraine become a permanent American colony. snyder.substack.com/p/recoup-the...
