It’s seems that the USA is lagging behind the world in absolutely everything. If we sink any lower, we will achieve the GOP goal of 3rd world country status sooner than you think. Make sure your future votes are in our entire population’s best interest. #ResistanceUnited #OneV1 #ProudBlue

So let me get this straight, we finally get an American pope, and some of the America first crowd is mad because he cares about the poor and immigrants. Am i missing something here?

If you want to be inspired by a Democratic Senator bring ☢ RADIO ACTIVE 🔥 FIRE & stand up for the rule of law, 🗽FREEDOM & immigrants, watch this epic takedown as Senator ChrisMurphy schools Republican Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi "dog killer" Noem.

I grew up believing that we had learned the lessons of the German poem and Martin Luther King Jr's speeches. We would all speak out if we saw democracy threatened and the rule of law under attack. I will always speak out against wrong. I will always stand up for democracy. I will not back down.

Al Gore didn’t hold back: The Trump admin is “attacking the heart of truth,” twisting facts like the Nazis did in the 1930s. From climate denial to rewriting the Ukraine war, it’s all about power—not reality. Gore warned the U.S. is under siege—and every former leader should speak out like he did.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

He wants to build prisons in El Salvador for American citizens he doesn't like. Enough's enough. He needs to be stopped.

Agreed. Please review the purpose of the United States by reading the Preamble. Those cuts and other actions are doing the opposite.

When a government claims to save money by betraying its citizens, cutting health and welfare research, and deepening inequality, it is not saving — it is building a system where only the wealthy access care. This undermines the very purpose of a nation.

My law firm has joined an amicus brief filed against the Trump administration for its unconstitutional attacks against the law firm Perkins, Coie I think Ben Franklin put it best: “We must, indeed, all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately”

Just got this email from John Cornyn. Here it is and read my reply

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

It’s well past time for the Republican Party to speak the truth. I commend Mike Pence.

He called himself a King and his press office released a picture of him as King. Is it time to do something?

What do you think about this idea?

I didn’t realize how quickly one man could change the 60 year alliances and foreign leadership the USA had established. Now that the federal GOP have bowed down to him there is no real resistance. Time to take to the streets.

In a world if kiss ass and brown noses as well a wimpy fearful GOP be a Sassoon.

"There is a hostile takeover happening in our country"…

If she can do it, we can all do it.

The Roberts Court bears a great deal of responsibility for this mess.

With tRump sucking up to both Russia and China; next he will give Russia Ukraine; give China Taiwan; and take Greenland and the Panama Canal for himself. The art of the deal.

I believe 8 years ago Bush said “that’s some dark shit” Wonder how he describes thus version?

I didn’t want this to happy 8 years ago. I most certainly didn’t want this to happen today. I’m sorry.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

No matter where you fall on the TikTok ban, the President undoing by “executive order” a law passed by Congress and upheld unanimously by the Supreme Court is an unconstitutional abuse of power.
