The televised Oval Office meeting with Bukele is mockery. They’re mocking the press, their opposition, the courts, and the entire concept of justice. They’re mocking everyone who isn’t them. The abuser’s playbook yet again.

republicans are disappearing people under the guise of fighting antisemitism and can’t even pretend to give a fuck when a jewish governor’s house gets firebombed on passover

Time to call my senators again… this is exhausting. At least 5calls makes it easy: 5calls.org

The gang of six act more like Trump's attorneys than like judges - crafting elaborate and clever rationales for why he can do whatever he'd like to, cleaning up his incompetent mess behind him.

My trade deficit with Trader Joe’s just grew exponentially 😱😱😱 (as did my pant size). this is so good. Even if you aren’t gluten free it is amazing.

Donald Trump is golfing with Saudi Arabian despots while he pushes our economy toward a recession of his own making. We could be voting RIGHT NOW to reverse Trump’s tariffs and price hikes if Republicans would work with us to save the economy.

I get angrier every day at the people who voted in a way that made this possible. Esp. the ones who said the economy was their biggest issue.

The US Constitution gives Congress the sole power to impose tariffs. Trump is using the National Emergencies Act (and the IEEPA) to bypass Congress to levy tariffs. All Congress has to do is pass a bill denying this explicit emergency power to levy tariffs to Trump and all of this goes away.

Ume, the tapir calf, is growing bolder in the water. In one attempt, she ventured completely into the pool, paddling for a few seconds before quickly hopping back out. This marks the first swimming session where she has gone beyond the top step and fully submerged herself, a big milestone for Ume.

Hanging chads 😭 why God?! He could have changed history. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/01/c...

Don’t get cocky y’all. We have to stay vigilant. The more we win the harder they will fight.

SENATOR BOOKER HASN'T USED THE BATHROOM IN OVER 24 HOURS AND MAY TAKE SOME TIME, PLEASE BE PATIENT

Just so everybody understands, Booker has been speaking cogently about the issues the entire time and Strom Thurmond famously spent hours reading from the encyclopedia, because segregationists were and are dumbshits

I will mortgage my house to support the first politician who promised to rain hellfire on white collar crime the way we do on weed dealers and undocumented workers.

Spring in the PacNW. Trying to remain present. Trying to find beauty everyday.

📣"The entire Trump era could have been avoided if the US took white collar crime anywhere near as seriously as it does low level drug crime" 📣 📣THE ENTIRE TRUMP ERA COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF THE US TOOK WHITE COLLAR CRIME ANYWHERE NEAR AS SERIOUSLY AS IT DOES LOW LEVEL DRUG CRIME 📣

Ive said it before, and I’ll say it again. Murphy should be going for Schumer’s job. He gets it. open.spotify.com/episode/46ma...

DEMOCRATS: We can never espouse things like Universal Healthcare. That’s crazy GOP: We’re going to invade Canada

Spoiler: they don’t explain anything other than the Trump admistration is corrupt and a bunch of babies who don’t like to do hard things. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/27/b...

I’m having trouble looking at that Kristi Noem video. It is so horrific. It feels like the holocaust and the Iraq war mashed up. I thought we had grown since then 😞

Local Indivisible member was abducted by ICE in Washington. If you're in the state, please elevate this thread to your electeds and ask for their help in getting his release.

On the left: Hegseth's message. On the right: the applicable CENTCOM classification guide provisions. This is all very plainly classified at the SECRET level. They all lied. They should all lose their jobs.

Read for yourself: Here are the attack plans that Trump advisers shared on Signal. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Wanna know why they were using signal? If they used the proper systems there would be a record of what they were doing.
