It's such an old-fashioned term but a beautiful term: remember.

Don’t forget to watch the documentary on the Ohio State sex scandal Jim Jordan tried to have blocked. It’s on HBO Max. www.max.com/movies/survi...

The SAVE ACT suppresses the votes of married women. The GOP veils this horrific bill saying it prevents non-citizens from voting. That’s a lie. Non-citizens are already barred from voting. This bill is intended to strip away a married woman’s rights. #Pinks #OneV1 ⬇️ www.forbes.com/sites/hollyc...

Twenty years ago the Republican party stood for huge tax cuts for the rich and wars of choice in the middle east, but then Donald Trump totally remade the party and realigned American poltiics, and now the Republica party stands for...huge tax cuts for the rich and wars of choice in the middle east.

Lee and Moreno had assumed (or simply fabricated) that the guy that murdered the representative was a Marxist or leftist; of course we know now he was a right wing Christian nationalist anti-choice anti-gay fanatic, just like them.

Sen Elissa Slotkin condemns Pete Hegseth, saying ex-Trump Defense Secretary Mark Esper "had more guts and balls than you because he said I'm not going to send in the uniformed military to do something that I know in my gut isn't right … It just shows you don't understand who we are as a country."

Yes ✅

Kristi Noem cruelest woman in America She has insurance coverage. There’s kids & the poor that get that choking sensation from lack of air similar to what’s felt when your throat swells from a allergic reaction but have no inhaler to rescue them because of trump & Repubs cut health care funding.

Is the floor so low we’re only half-expecting an apology from a Senator who mocked the assasination of politicians he didn’t like? Or is there just no floor at all anymore? Mike Lee should resign. Today.

Holy sh*t everybody. Share this until your fingers fall off! #TrumpMobile

Let me be clear: The President does not have the authority to attack Iran. Only the Congress has the constitutional power to declare war. President Trump must work to end this conflict — not drag us further into it.

I still can't get past the idea that people in America are now supposed to accept that this is a valid form of law enforcement and just assume it's fine when random dudes in groups with face-coverings, no ID, no warrant, & no uniform grab people off the street and force them into unmarked vehicles

Bernie Sanders endorsed Zohran Mamdani, saying that voters are being given the choice between the status quo, with billionaires and corporations dominating politics, or a movement that represents everyday people, focused on fighting growing “oligarchy, authoritarianism and kleptocracy.”

It could take just few Republican Senators to stand up and change the course of history. Write to those who’ve shown a conscience. Tell them: put country over party. Send your letters to: Sen. Collins: 68 Sewall St., Rm 507, Augusta, ME 04330 Sen. Murkowski: 510 L St., Ste 600, Anchorage, AK 99501

America is one of those countries where if you host a global sporting event, inclusive messages have to be censored to so as not to anger the central government. In this case the message is “racism is bad” www.nytimes.com/athletic/643...

ICE agents are out here manhandling elected officials—yet again. They arrested NYC Comptroller Brad Lander for asking if they had a warrant—which is his constitutional right. (1/2)

However unsure we may be about what the ultimate outcome will be, we may rest morally certain that Donald Trump has absolutely no idea what he’s doing from one moment to the next. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/17/u...

“The Constitution grants Congress the sole power to declare war, and the extent of the president's authority to wade into conflict abroad without the approval of the legislative branch has been challenged in recent years.”

Keep this kind of detail in mind as you listen to those in US calling for war on Iran.

The regime has now arrested, handcuffed/decked: • Judge • Member of Congress • US Senator • Mayoral Candidate/city official of NYC/ A Trump supporter just assassinated a Dem leader in MN. And Sen. Dems are about to vote w/ Republicans to give Trump a gift on crypto - as early as maybe today.

Just Thursday, Trump ordered ICE to exempt farms, hotels and restaurants from raids. Yesterday, Stephen Miller, I mean, Trump, reversed course and raids on farms, hotels, restaurants are back on. Who’s in charge? #TacoTuesdayv🌮 www.democracynow.org/2025/6/17/he...

The President of the United States is a desperate, demented, wannabe dictator who is trying to save his presidency by getting into a war that even his own base doesn’t want. The military needs to intervene before he orders a nuke. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

WE HAVE QUESTIONS… This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they? ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants. How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?

It’s estimated that 16 million people could lose their health insurance under Trump's “Big Beautiful Bill.” That's like everyone who lives in the states of: Wyoming Alaska North Dakota Montana Maine New Hampshire Hawaii West Virginia Idaho Nebraska And Arkansas COMBINED.

Trump wants Iran to surrender unconditionally. What does he think is going to happen after that? Do you think the people of Iran are going to accept an Israeli- and American-installed government? They haven’t thought this through. They don’t have an exit plan. It’ll be another forever war.

Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back

Dear parents: You see all this stupidity going around? Please read to your kids. Let them see you reading. Keep books around. Buy them books if you can. Show them how cool the library is. Tell them book banning is bad. Make reading part of their lives. It helps make good people.

We were promised peace through strength and we got wars from incompetence.

Keep pushing back at their lies. We aren’t protesting Trump because we hate the United States. We are protesting because we hate what Donald Trump is doing to the United States.

“We” are fighting a foreign war with zero consultation with or authorization from Congress, and no address to the nation other than Truth Social posts.

Trump has nothing on his public schedule today, he flew back from G7 so he could post on truth social & pretend he was in charge of the conflict in Middle East. He couldn’t stand being seen as the one NOT calling the shots. He’s playing at POTUS but he’s an old man in a diaper.

It's pretty notable that mainstream, establishment discourse never ever ever considers giving liberal politicians credit for crime reductions. It's almost axiomatic that if crime goes down under a center-left leader it's either unremarked upon, or must be driven by something else.

Democratic senators need to stop pretending that GOP senators are their “good friends across the aisle” and realize many of them are just lying sociopaths who are actively fanning the flames of violence against them.
