Mirroring Russia's 2022 invasion strategy of Ukraine, the US Trump regime will deploy troops along the Panama Canal for what it claims is "training, exercises and "other activities"" after months of threatening invasion. Panamanians say the US of launching a “camouflaged invasion”. #panamainvasion

Kinda hard to see a free and fair 2028 election where she doesn’t win by a lot.

Nationwide organizing (like our work to help mobilize millions last weekend) takes a lot of resources, so our resistance grows bigger and better when you pitch in.

Frost: I come from Florida. See, Project 2025 is Florida 2024. We’ve seen this, but we also know how to deal with it. When they disappear, a college student, you take to the streets. When they steal your Medicare, Social Security, and Medicaid, you take to the streets.

Trump’s regime ignores a SCOTUS ruling?!; Why did DOJ drop a major MS-13 case?; Will NC toss military votes in key Supreme Court race? Ben Meiselas & Michael Popok break it all down on Legal AF at 8p ET/5p PT. Don’t miss it.

Killer sign. A+++ sign

After months of striking, some therapists with Kaiser Permanente stopped eating for five days to bring attention to their union's demands for parity with how the company's other workers are treated.

#BREAKING: Over 36,000 people rallied in Los Angeles today in support of @sanders.senate.gov and @aoc.bsky.social’s OLIGARCHY TOUR — setting a record as their largest stop on this tour.

Something my mind cannot stop thinking about is that in the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Trump admin ADMITTED that he was wrongfully deported and they they still are fighting as hard as they can to not bring an innocent man home because it will make them look bad.

Greg Abbott’s stalling the TX-18 election to help Trump’s agenda—keeping a safe Dem seat empty for 7 months. @isaiahrmartin.bsky.social isn’t just another name on a ballot—he’s the next-gen fighter. He’s calling Abbott out and ready to raise hell in Congress for people the GOP tries to silence.

AOC: We must acknowledge the terrifying moment we are in right now. What we are hearing and seeing with our own eyes is, in fact, happening. We are watching our neighbors, students, and friends being fired, targeted, and disappeared. It is real.

Bill Maher can try and frame it any way he wants. He NORMALIZED a dangerous authoritarian. Period. Full stop.

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

WHAT DO THESE GENIUSES THINK WILL HAPPEN TO MANUFACTURING JOBS IN THIS COUNTRY IF THERE IS A RECESSION !?!?!?!?!?!!?

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024. This isn't due to luck or skill. Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

This girl is better than the majority of the Democrats. I'm really impressed with her toughness. We should all absolutely pitch in. youtu.be/Q-o6yrRIo0Y?...

"Wouldn't it make sense to prosecute him?" -- even Fox News thinks it's suspicious that Karoline Leavitt can't cite any actual evidence justifying the administration's deportations to a gulag in El Salvador without due process (note Leavitt claiming "this administration is doing things differently")

U.S. pension funds have lost $169 billion over the past two weeks. The Republican controlled Congress can stop the hemorrhaging with ONE vote. Instead - they decided to make it more difficult for woman to vote. God Bless America!
