“Are you confident that, when the worm turns—and yes, it will turn—you will not be held accountable for participating in the Trump administration’s abandonment of the Constitution and the rule of law?” One of many questions for Republicans. www.americaamerica.news/p/a-letter-t...

When you are faced with the mendacity of Trump, Hegseth, & Johnson, it’s pointless to try & get clarity from them. Go to the trusted sources. If you want to understand how we got here and what Trump & Netanyahu are up to, I present to you she who knows: Christine Amanpour. Breaking. It. Down.

It's Juneteenth. We damn well better reflect on its meaning. This vile regime erases our history by removing the names of brave, historic black people, gutting diversity, equity & inclusion, curtailing voting rights for POC, restoring the names of traitors & slave holders to military bases.

I’ve been in politics for over a half-century. I’ve watched as corporations and the super-rich flooded D.C. with campaign cash and ransacked our system. It won't be easy, but here’s how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people. https://youtu.be/sP0pRIBRcDk?si=o8uynfvuoVhcX7p8

“ICE in just a few weeks has transformed itself into the closest thing that the US has ever had to a ‘secret police,’ with more seemingly culturally in common with the Klan nightriders of Reconstruction than their federal agency brethren like the FBI or ATF.” @garrettgraff.bsky.social

We don’t know what the real name of the Director of White House Personnel is, we don’t know what country he came from, he refuses to turn in background check forms, and nobody will ask the president or press secretary about it.

My colleagues and I are holding Donald Trump accountable for proposing to defund counterterrorism grants. Trump’s budget, if enacted, would leave NYC woefully unprepared to prevent a second 9/11. NYC has seen 67 plots since 9/11. Seven this year alone. One per month.

Attacking Medicaid, SNAP, and Planned Parenthood hurts the people who already face the biggest barriers to care and food. But Trump and the MAGA regime don't care about helping working families. They only care about helping their wealthy donors

This is an outrage! This Afghan risked his life for our military in Afghanistan & when he couldn’t leave on our flights after the Taliban occupation he came here on his own & is now disappearing. The courts & his lawyer have his records that ICE claims they do not have! This man is a hero. #Pinks

Sayed Naser served as a U.S. military interpreter in Afghanistan. Now he’s being deported. The Taliban assassinated his brother and kidnapped his father. All because he helped us. Why are the feds trying to deport him, even though his asylum case is still pending? Not justice, it’s a betrayal.

He was detained outside church. “He was in chains at his feet,” Alondra Sotelo-Garcia told a local news outlet about seeing her father arrested. “Shoelaces were taken off, his belt was off, he didn’t have his ring, he didn’t have his watch. Everything was taken from him.”

In other forms of just total whitewashing, dystopian grossness, Trump continues to attack the national parks and asks for whistleblowers about any historical references to events that happened in America that might make white people look bad. Part 1/2
