Dear World, I can assure you that the MAJORITY of Americans DO NOT support the Christo-fascist autocratic takeover of our government. It IS in fact “minority rule”. Thank you for any and all solidarity. I am gravely sorry for what it to come. I will fight it with all my heart and strength.

In a major blow to Paul Weiss law firm, their 4 top partners are leaving in the wake of its decision to cut a deal with Trump. They will form their own law firm.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 www.nytimes.com/2025/05/23/b...

Hey @harvard.edu, they don’t have to keep their degrees, right?

Elon doesn’t like this photo, so don’t 😉 repost this photo. Resisters, 😉 you know what to do.. 😝

Who hasn’t thought about 86 47? Comey might be the reason we had 45. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Jack Taper should be ashamed! What good is he doing but profiting from this. Creating chaos and uncertainly doesn’t help anyone but HIM! Looks like he’s taking a page from the Trump admin: just make $

Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor used an audience of lawyers to deliver a stern message to the legal profession: stand up for democracy, take on the hard fights and do whatever you can to win. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/just...

Touché!

DEMOCRATS! Throwing Joe Biden under the bus won’t help you. •It won’t win over the base. •It won’t boost your approval. •It won’t bring back voters who sat out 2024. •It won’t fix 2026. It makes you look petty while Trump is burning it all down. REPAIR AND BUILD THE PARTY!

🧵 What do Elmo and investigative journalism have in common? Trump wants them both defunded. Yep—Donnie’s pulling federal funding from NPR and PBS. His reason? Last month, in an unhinged Truth Social post, he claimed that they’re "RADICAL LEFT 'MONSTERS' THAT SO BADLY HURT OUR COUNTRY!" 🙄 /1

Donald Trump has been pretty quiet on his sad little social media platform after mocking Catholicism with an AI image of himself as the Pope on Friday night. Good.

Meanwhile, Israel keeps on killing people in Gaza.

Two former Wells Fargo executives were fined $8.5M by the Biden administration for covering up the bank's infamous fake account scandal. Trump just slashed those fines to a paltry $150,000 after Wells Fargo gave $1M to his inauguration. See how this works?

🚨 JUDICIARY REPUBLICANS JUST VOTED TO ALLOW IMMIGRATION AGENTS TO USE BILLIONS OF YOUR TAX DOLLARS TO ARREST, DETAIN, AND DEPORT US CITIZENS.

He’s not comfortable but I bet he does!

I haven’t purchased one thing from Amazon since the inauguration and had hoped maybe he was coming around but after bending the knee once again to #fuckingtrump I still won’t purchase anything! Show the tariff prices!!!!!

This is who we are. A country where we need to build a missing persons website for all the friends & family disappeared under this administration. Please share so folks can connect. #MOMSky

There were no reported cases of measles in Texas in 2024. There were 285 cases of measles for the entire year of 2024 NATIONALLY. As of April 24, 2025, there were a total of 884 confirmed measles cases. RFK Jr. needs to resign. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #MomSky

Canadian Voter: I think who I voted for would be the best to take care of Trump, because Trump is, I’m sorry to say, an asshole.

Please don't lose sight of this incase you have a family member or friend who needs help

Contemplation for today….

I stand with President Zelensky! 💙💛🫂☮️🙏

Americans for #Felon47- this is what YOU VOTED FOR.... cuts to my and your Social Security, and every Republican voted against an amendment to reverse those cuts. @ossoff.bsky.social #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

The US Constitution guarantees due process. Donald Trump is eroding it in real time – we must fight back to restore the balance of power. Today, I’m announcing a series of measures against El Salvador for aiding his unconstitutional deportation scheme.

These are monsters, not Christians!

The Pope has passed. I'm not Catholic. I don't do religion. However, this particular Pope was a decent human. He truly cared for the whole of humanity. I do apologize that he spent any of his last moments on earth with jd vance. #SheShed #Voices4Victory #Pope

I put a hold on Ed Martin’s nomination. He’s denied elections. Fired quality public servants. Attempted to chill free speech. Turns out he’s also carrying water for the Kremlin. So wholly unfit to be a U.S. Attorney.

It's time for civic uprising. We can't wait any longer! Not sure what you can do? The grassroots group @indivisible.org -- they helped organize the nationwide "Hands Off" rallies -- offer some suggestions for you in the thread below

Godspeed to you @vanhollen.senate.gov and may you bring Mr. Garcia safely home.

"Tesla pays $323 million a year taxes to China for its Chinese plant. They pay zero dollars in United States taxes." #TaxDay2025

Good advice…..

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

L - The official photo from the Kremlin of US Special Envoy @SteveWitkoff putting his hand over his heart as he greets his friend Vladimir Putin again this week. R - Putin’s latest missile attack killing at least 21 people, including 7 children, on Palm Sunday. Putin’s stooge.

Just in case those of us fighting for democracy in court didn't need another challenge, Big Law turning collaborators is here and growing. My firm and others continue to fight. We will never back down. We will never bend a knee. We will never obey.

Trump engaged in insider trading and capitulated to China and the EU. He even admitted that he got scared. "[Trump] didn't just flinch, he ducked. There are trillions still lost."

This is what courage looks like! The DOJ dispatched armed U.S. marshals to deliver a letter warning Liz Oyer, a fired career pardon attorney, about testifying to congressional Democrats. www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

🚨It’s keeping me up at night. Gen. Tim Haugh led U.S. Cyber Command & the NSA—two of the most powerful surveillance agencies in the world. Trump fired him w/ no explanation. Your privacy & civil liberties are at risk. My nat’l security colleagues & I are very worried. You need to know this.

We wouldn’t be here if SCOTUS had allowed the January 6th trial to go forward as scheduled.
