This is Not tough, #America! Just Don't Go! The excuse, "I'm there to honor the Army's 250th" - Is LAME! ALL Decent #Americans - Know What's Going On Here! Every Attendee should know - that Decent America KNOWS You Know What's Going On. Citizens Don't Need A Gaudy Parade to honor the #Army!

The top few million candidates for Secretary of Defense would have resigned rather than accede to a WH request to deploy troops against peaceful protestors. So they picked one way further down the list. Hegseth was picked because he’s a compliant idiot.

Images of tanks pulling up for a huge PARADE that NO ONE asked for that will cost money & take military personnel away from more important things at a time when Americans are being told we don’t have money for food & healthcare seems wild to me.

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

Los Angeles school worker shares frustration over parents having to leave their children’s graduation ceremony because ICE raided an elementary school’s graduation today

And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.

ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not st our borders. It is in the White House.

Lot of people dunking on this clip, but Murkowski, asked for advice for people who are afraid to speak up, acknowledges that she shares that fear. But she then says it's "not right" that people are made to be afraid of retaliation for speaking up, and says it won't stop her from doing her job.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

Yep, I’m going to ā€œpoliticizeā€ the FSU shooting because gun violence is political. The reason America has a 26 times higher gun homicide rate than any peer nation is because politicians care more about pandering to gun lobbyists than protecting their constituents.

RFK Jr. is very loud and very WRONG about Autism. 1. It’s not a disease 2. There are thousands of people with Autism Spectrum Disorder who pay taxes, have jobs, can use the bathroom on their own, and are thriving in life.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R): "We are all afraid…I am oftentimes very anxious myself about using my voice because retaliation is real."

You saw the video of the ICE agent breaking a car window near the border, right? He wasn’t an ICE agent. He’s the founder of Veterans on Patrol, a FAR-RIGHT MILITIA patrolling the border for migrants. They’re basically deputizing militias to act as federal agents. This is dangerously out of control

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

Openly ignoring and defying the Judiciary. Breaking his oath to preserve and protect the Constitution of the United States. Granting himself unchecked power. This is authoritarianism.

If your excuse as an elected official, here in 2025, for not doing something that is in the interest of Dems who elected you is that Republicans might weaponize it, you are not living in 2025. They are going to weaponize anything you do, either way. They have demonstrated this over and over.

I can't wait to donate to your primary challenger @fetterman.senate.gov I am ashamed that I gave you my money and my vote! @johnfetterman.com

Social Security delivers benefits accurately 99.7%. DOGE is DELIBERATELY BREAKING the system.

This may be the fastest Presidency to recession in American history

I’m not going to the Joint Address. I will be live posting and chatting with you all here instead. Then going on IG Live after.

Trump got Mexico to send the same 10,000 troops to the border that Biden already got them to commit. Trump got Canada to agree to the same measures to fight fentanyl that Biden already got them to agree to six weeks ago. Wow. What a dealmaker!

This is so good.

Don't let Trump spin you, he backed down on the Mexican tariffs when the market dropped out, GOP electeds finding a backbone to complain, and the WSJ calling it the "dumbest trade war in history". Trump blinked and embarrassed himself plain and simple.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out. This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

…

Democratic leaders in all 50 states should be publishing posts like this, holding press conferences tomorrow. We must inform people what is being done to them - the disruptions, the price increases, the chaos, the angry allies and neighbors.

i think an important thing for people outside the US to understand is that elon musk seized control of the government today and most americans don’t even realize it happened.

I know ā€œall empires fallā€ and all that nonsense but I’ll be wrestling, for the rest of my life, with the reality that the world’s mightiest superpower is being toppled the the absolute biggest fuckin’ losers imaginable. Just… junior prom rejects, all the way down.

Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head. So, I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

NBC News is being kicked out of its space in the Pentagon and replaced by OANN.

It’s pretty insane that a private citizen can come in, hijack federal government servers, fire people, and steal their PII.

My statement on the FBI Purge that puts at risk the safety, well-being and national security of the American people.

ā€œTerrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.ā€ Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

The White House Financial Disclosure page has been WIPED. The U.S. Office of Government Ethics mandates public financial disclosures for high-level federal officials through the OGE Form 278e promoting transparency and ensuring compliance with the Ethics in Government Act of 1978. SHARE EVERYWHERE!

The past several days have proven without a shadow of a doubt that Project 2025 is real and underway. And those who warned America about it were right.

Only nine missed meals separate a functioning society from chaos.

Sharing an incredible resource for people looking to follow the legal changes on immigration under Trump. A law professor and numerous students at Yale Law and Stanford Law will be tracking and summarizing every change in immigration policy. immpolicytracking.org/home/

A reminder that Trump is an insecure man who crumbles under even the most even-keeled criticism. Bishop Budde is showing our leaders the path. Challenging Trump on values, humanity and basic decency is one tool to remind Americans that there is a better way — and this guy is a weak, small person

#MorningVibe They’ll tell you not to be angry, gaslight you out of your justified anger, and tell you to calm down. Meanwhile they burn your world down around you. Use your anger to fight for justice. āœ’ļønikita_gil (IG)

1) Buy printer paper 2) Print hundreds of copies of this 3) Hand them out in school, at work, etc Remember, anyone with a judicial warrant *signed by a judge* does NOT need your permission to enter or search. If they ask, they don’t have a judicial warrant and you can refuse whatever they want.
