Statement from Trump on Putin’s Palm Sunday Massacre missile attack that killed at least 34, including several children, and injured another 117 people:

36,000 went to the Bernie/AOC rally! Let’s keep the numbers growing!! April 19 is coming up. Find a rally and go with a sign! Show the Republicans we mean business!

Under the Trump budget plan just passed by Congress, a staggering 70% of House Republicans would personally financially benefit from extending major tax loopholes. More money for them, paid for by cuts to YOUR benefits.

Th judge should absolutely hammer the administration for this response. DOJ attorneys stonewalled the entire hearing today, telling her they had “no info” on all of her questions. Judge demands daily updates on the status of this case.

LET'S NOT FORGET DJT BIRTHDAY 6/14.. HE WANTS A PARADE.LET'S GIVE HIM ONE😳 as a matter of fact, we need to have a protest parade in DC every day till we permanently RUN him out of the White House😡

Fact: Trumpism is Fascism. Make no mistake about it, he is installing himself as a dictator, and doesn’t care who he crushes to do it (you). Law firms capitulating to him are aiding and abetting the destruction of democracy. It’s up to We The People to stop him. #ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election. 70% of these donations went to Republicans. Now, Republicans in Congress are gearing up to slash essential programs to pay for another round of tax cuts for the rich. This is what oligarchy looks like.

Sweet Singer Island, home to middle class retirees and endangered turtles a mile or so to the north of Trump’s Mar a Lago, was invaded by Trump’s masked and heavily armed border patrol jackboots this morning. The intent was apparently to threaten and terrify four miles worth of half naked oldsters.

The 38 year old Cody guy who was arrested for setting governor Josh Shapiro’s residence on fire. As I thought a maga cult member.

What if there was an opposition party that just said "If you give us a majority in congress we'll remove these freaks and criminals from power"

The United States is the richest country in the history of the world. But who benefits from those riches? Consider: the richest 10% of Americans hold nearly 70% of the nation’s wealth – while the bottom 50% hold just 3%. See the problem?

I am a professor at Columbia University. All of the student NIH training grants have been canceled and now there are reports that ALL funding will be frozen. Why are Universities not banding together and speaking out publicly and forcibly about governmental attacks on biomedical research?

As Stiglitz says in the video below, the US is now primarily a SERVICE economy, with sectors like tourism central to our income. But rather than fortify our strengths, DOGE cut 10% of our Nat’l Park staff, when 2024 had a record 332M visitors to our parks! NONE of this makes any sense. #MomSky 🌲

In recent weeks, the number of people travelling from Europe to the U.S has plummeted — by as much as 35%. The sharp decline in tourism is a direct response to Trump’s punishing policies — including tariffs and the horrific treatment of immigrants and foreigners.

Restoring trust and credibility to the United States will require not just pushing Trump out of power but putting him and all his cronies in prison.

#ProudBlue #MomSky We are seeing this daily from way too many in Congress. The GOP has completely given up their power to the Executive branch. Every single one of them needs to be primaried.

Vote them Out

🍪 LET HIM EAT COOKIES Secretary of the Interior Doug Burghum, a billionaire who has cut thousands of national park rangers & emergency personnel, insists DOI staff bake him warm cookies on demand and uses government helicopters for personal travel youtu.be/QXRL8JhVwks?...

Big news out of Colorado: Gov. Polis just signed a new law requiring background checks, safety training, and a permit to buy assault-style weapons. Vet Voice Foundation helped shape the bill with testimony—because Veterans know the stakes. A smart step toward safer communities.

Hubris run amok…👇

OF COURSE SHE DID so did LAURA LOOMER who said she bought gold in early AM

Treason, away of life!

Donald Trump’s corrupt regime is cutting benefits, undermining voting rights, and wreaking havoc on our economy. While the wealthy elite stand to make major profits, it’s working Americans who’ll have to pay the cost.

There is a Republican war against women & democracy itself. The House just passed the #SAVEAct that makes those who changed their name when they married purchase a $165 passport. MAGA doesn't care that people don't have an extra $165 lying around to get a passport. They don't want women to vote.

SHAMEFUL! The so-called SAVE Act was passed in the House today. It MUST be stopped in the Senate! This bill deliberately threatens the voter rights of MILLIONS of women, low-income, minority, & naturalized Americans. Why? Because the more 🇺🇸 voters engage in elections, the more Republicans LOSE!
