The IDF has captured Greta Thunberg. 🤬

So we all Remember......

Project 2025 playbook—Trump wants to enact martial law. It’s a set up. If you protest, keep that in mind. DO NOT GIVE HIM AN EXCUSE! Share widely...

Vice President Harris says "deploying the National Guard is a dangerous escalation meant to provoke chaos." "This Administration's actions are not about public safety — they're about stoking fear. Fear of a community demanding dignity and due process."

We need to stand up for @terrymoranabc.bsky.social

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

Tyranny requires constant effort. Oppression is the mask of fear. Authority is brittle. And most importantly: you are never truly alone when standing up to authoritarianism. You have friends everywhere.

Deploying the military on U.S. soil as law enforcement against Americans was on page 555 of Project 2025. So don’t say “I didn’t vote for this,” because you did. This isn’t a response. This was always their plan.

Never have been the same ✊

As Stephen Miller continues to levy vitriol at Elon Musk’s criticisms of Trump, we need to keep two things in mind: 1. The only emotional reaction Miller can ever muster, is vitriol. 2. Somewhere in MuskLand resides his wife, Katie Miller. "Hell hath no fury like a racist sociopath scorned."

The way it is… So much for freedom of association…

Struck by how quickly it’s gone Orwellian. The Department of Justice protects criminals and prosecutes the innocent. Health and Human Services is singularly obsessed with spreading disease. The Department of Education is working tirelessly to make us dumber. Homeland Security makes us less safe.

BREAKING: The GOP has declared war on seniors. Mike Collins (R-GA) says the next plan is to end Social Security and force the elderly back to work. You paid in your whole life. Now they’re robbing you on camera.

BREAKING The President of California’s largest union has been detained during an ICE raid.

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

You can argue the merits of deporting Marcelo—a young man brought here at age 5—if you want to. But this is someone we should be proud to call American. He’s solid on every level. And if you’re really a Christian, you should be lifting him up, not casting him out. Listen w/an open mind—and heart.

A real leader, a real man.

"That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy." - Robert Reich #TaxBillionaires

I ran a Gay/Straight Alliance club in a high school for a few years. I wish the people creating this ban could spend a day having a marginalized kid who feels unsafe in their skin...and has a 19% chance of attempting suicide. But I don't wish that for any kid, or any parent. Even the cruel ones.

These are MORE of the people who are stealing from the government. #ElectACriminalExpectCrimes #CriminalNetwork #DeportThemNow

MERZ: Tomorrow is the D Day anniversary, when the Americans ended a war in Europe TRUMP: That was not a pleasant day for you? This is not a great day MERZ: This was the liberation of my country from Nazi dictatorship

Believe Most Of Us Would Agree! That's Not What We Are Witnessing...

Remember: If unions didn’t matter, powerful corporations wouldn’t spend millions of dollars every year to stop workers from organizing. Keep up the fight.

So much winning… (Or is it wheezing? 🤷‍♂️)

My latest: Jasmine Crockett is clear choice to lead Oversight Dems I told you I wouldn’t pick sides in this race because I don’t have a vote. Then I realized it’s up to all of us to make sure our party gets this one right. 3,421 words. Please consider reading and passing this along!

Ah, the golden age.

As I predicted, we are now entering an era where we cannot necessarily trust data coming from the federal govt on things like inflation. Something to watch VERY closely for GDP, unemployment, everything. www.wsj.com/economy/cpi-...

Weather forecaster explains how cuts impact his ability to warn of hurricane dangers accurately.

I never thought America would become an anti-immigrant nation with masked and unidentified armed people zip tying children, tackling old women and deporting American citizens in an effort to “make America great again”.

“One Big Beautiful Bill”? Try one big, bold-faced lie. They swore this mess wouldn’t add to the deficit…but the nonpartisan budget office says otherwise. $2.4 TRILLION added to the deficit—and for what? Tax cuts for the rich.

More than unmask them! Clarify why these masked individuals are taking people and detaining them! What are the people they are taking being charged with???? Where are the lawyers???

Reminder to ICE: Do not lay hands on American citizens. Video, photos, and personal information have been recorded. Actions have consequences. If you have information to share, email [email protected]. Your safety is our top priority, never forget that.

"Just one more thing, sir. Since the election, you've announced 12 projects in foreign countries: the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, India, Qatar, & Oman. You got a $400 million jet, sold meme coins, $600 sneakers, Chinese bibles, & hats. How is any of this making America great?"

great, provocative column from larry tye on what it took to defeat the american nightmare of joe mccarthy and the ism that bears his name. along these lines, may i also point you to the 2nd season of my podcast, “ultra”: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/r... www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Why aren’t Dems on everything talking about the Joni Ernst “you can die” bill?

Masked “ICE Agents” with assault weapons and tactical gear are a ridiculous escalation when the reality is that you are arresting moms, bus boys, and college students. Are they are looking for an excuse for violence?

#GVerse #TellYourSenators: Don't cut health care & food assistance to give another tax cut to the rich! via @thewatchdogco.bsky.social via @thedemcoalition.bsky.social

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

A radical transformation of our way of life is underway. Don’t let anyone gaslight you into thinking this administration is normal.
