So, here's what I think Trump and the Republcians will do in lieu of mass deportation. They will use the 13A and force those seeking asylum into slave labor. Trump will find mass deportation to be cost prohibitive and slave labor will take its place. JS. #USDemocracy

Daily reminder. Extreme MAGA Republicans have done nothing to lower the high cost of living in America.

The Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision is 15 years old this month. Billionaires haven't had this much influence over U.S. politics since the 19th century.

If you want further proof that American journalism is dead, the Hollywood Reporter showed more moral clarity in their coverage of Elon Musk’s Nazi salute than the Washington Post, NY Times, LA Times, WSJ, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS or NBC. Cowards all. bit.ly/4gdjnQe

In the land of the free citizens should just shut up.

My heart hurts for Eric Braeden's loss in the California fires. He has always spoken out and a truth teller. Most of you know him as Victor Newman from "The Young And The Restless". He's truly an amazing human. Thank you, Mr. Braeden for speaking truth to power.🙏💜

Democrats need to start talking about what Trump’s doing as a radical assault on the foundations of the country. A revolution to shred American law, institutions, and alliances for the advancement of billionaires and neo-Nazis. An attempt to destroy normal America

You can officially start blaming inflation, the price of groceries and rent on Donald Trump.

Yes this

I want everyone to understand that rescission of 1965 antidiscrimination orders is literally resegregation and for reporters in the room to press them accordingly also the gall of revoking the *Equal Employment Opportunity* directive. man affirmatively said 'I want unequal employment opportunities'

The Trump Administration has officially closed the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention. This is a crushing blow to all the significant and historic work we've made over the last 4 years. Biden's work on guns has saved thousands of lives- the Trump admin is trying to reverse that.

Trump’s plan is to use the Insurrection Act and use The Posse Comitatus Act for reassigning military personnel to go in and do raids throughout the cities. Using U.S. Military police on our civilian communities. Where is the OPPOSITION ON THIS!? breakingdefense.com/2025/01/trum...

Know your rights!!! #stoptheoligarchy

This from @aoc.bsky.social. The targeting of migrants for detention & deportation, without due process, is an outrage in itself. But it’s also about profiteering. “I want folks at home to look at which members of congress are invested in private prison companies…& look at the votes on this bill.”

Where is Debbie Dingell, head of the Committee Chair, and Gerry Connolley, head of Oversight? Why are AOC and Jasmine Crockett reflecting the righteous anger to the American public?

Democrats who want to be relevant and have a future with the party, look at AOC, Jamie Raskin, Jasmine Crockett, Senators Van Hollen and even Murphy right now. They're the ones calling it out, refusing to bend the knee, and reflecting the righteous anger of America against the broligarchy.

Tonight's @runforsomething.bsky.social call for people thinking about running for local office is has 1,300+ people signed up so far - it'll be our biggest intro call *ever*. Not too late to RSVP & hear from our team, @maxwellfrost.bsky.social, & others. www.mobilize.us/runforsometh...

Everyone needs to stop thinking this is just “4 years of upcoming chaos” and realize America is under control of a dictator. There is no guarantee there will be another election. The White House is under Oligarchic control. Everyone’s human rights are under threat for the foreseeable future.

Lindsey Graham in 2021 on pardoning Jan. 6 rioters: “To seek a pardon of these people would be wrong. It would be. I think it would destroy President Trump. And I hope we don't go down that road.”

Montage of clips of Trump “guaranteeing” that he will end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours of taking office, that “it wouldn’t even be tough” for him to do, and that “everyone will be happy” with the end result.

Woke up pissed. Not scared. Not sick. Borderline rage pissed. You?

But the price of eggs… 🥚 🍳 Trump already attacking health care protections by rescinding Biden executive order on drug pricing. It has already begun. CALL IT OUT!

Donald Trump chose Kash Patel and Pam Bondi because he wants his political enemies to be investigated and prosecuted. Joe Biden did very little to prevent that. It is now up to us and the courts to protect democracy and rule of law.

Good Morning. I don't want to see tfg's face all over my feed. Could we minimize that, please. There will be ample that is unavoidable. Learning news about the collapse of our government does not require his face to be everywhere. *This is not an angry demand, just something to consider.

Turns out calling it the "Gulf of Mexico" is woke. (It's been called that since 1672.)

Trump has redone the White House website which opens up with a video montage of himself in dictatorial style — has removed a contact form, and removed the option to change the language to Spanish.

Just saying.

For Reals

‘I Have Been Betrayed By My Country’: Capitol Police Officers Blast Trump’s Jan. 6 Pardons

AOC: “We are on the eve of an authoritarian administration.” 🇺🇸

Florida voters filed a lawsuit against Gov. Ron De Santis for failing to call special elections for two vacant seats in the state legislature, violating the state constitution and state law. DeSantis was also sued back in 2023 over a special election.

QUOTE OF THE DAY…if you LIKE IT give it 💙and plz RP😘😘

Sigh. We tried to warn them.

“What can you do? Give no quarter and find a way to enjoy the fight. It will be a long one. American democracy itself is at stake.” An excellent piece and necessary read by @guitarwatson.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/theliber...

Propaganda has a purpose. They want us to give up. They want us to throw our hands up and surrender before offering a fight. What’s better than fighting a battle to win? Not fighting at all because your enemy surrenders. Let's not fall for it now. My latest: open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...
