It's a lovely idea but primary the fuck out of them just to be sure

Mamdani knocking off Cuomo is the headline that will get me through another day or two of hideous venality and miscalculation in American governance at home and abroad. We can have nice things. It's still possible.

Hoping we'll all have a little less patience for defeatism, moaning about the electorate and democracy, etc. We can win. It is not a given that we will. But if you aren't willing to see it as a possibility or think creatively about how to get there, politics isn't for you.

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.

Damn—the Senate parliamentarian has ruled that a LOT of the reconciliation bill requires 60 votes to pass, including a massive assault on federal regulations and several heinous attacks on civil service protections. This effectively guts a big chunk of the bill. www.budget.senate.gov/ranking-memb...

If you have info on #JamesOKeefe, his org, operatives, tactics, etc, incl from his @Project_Veritas days, or have been victimized by him, we are happy to speak w/you off the record & protect you as sources. I have protected US spies for 30+ years. Reach out to [email protected]

We challenge the Democrats to join us in calling for all Americans to reclaim their independence from tyranny by joining us in protests on the Fourth of July.

It's heartbreaking and terrifying how completely worthless most of the msm has been. They are entirely unequipped for this time, and completely unwilling to acknowledge or correct their own fecklessness or take responsibility for how we got here.

It’s a failure of journalism to do shit like this. Donald Trump has said that something will happen “within two weeks” at least 5,000 times in the past decade with easily over 4,900 of those “deadlines” passing with no action.

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

OMG Trump, if he TACOs on Iran (regardless of your position) this will be tattooed on his face forever.

Trump is back to selling scams—this time, it's a $499 phone. He’s doing what he does best: turning the presidency into a business deal. Republicans spent years investigating the Bidens despite no evidence of corruption or pay to play. (1/2)

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)

People need to be absolutely freaking out about this. Some things cannot be put back in the bottle, even if we get a normal president again someday

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...

Wittman continues to gaslight constituents that the Big Bullshit Bill will save Medicaid by turfing all of the "illegals" from the program. Just like the voter suppression legislation will purge phantom voter fraud. Time to boot the faux scientist Chesapeake Bay lover (but not funder) from VA01.

I did an event in DC & there was a party for donors etc after. Was talking to 2 ppl & I said "Things are so bad." They said "No this is how it is. Things swing one way, then another. It's normal." That's when I realized why Dems are toothless. They have no idea what this is. Frogs boiling in water.

The military parade was supposed to scare Americans into submitting to Trump’s fascist regime. Instead, 11M marched across the country and laughed at his pathetic attempt to show force.

I hate the “he’s such a nice guy” response to something like the Senator Alex Padilla situation, because someone shouldn’t have to be a nice guy to not be treated the way he was. But I do want to say, as someone who has known him since 2009, he is one of the most decent and kind people I know.

Over & over again, Sen Dems asked Joint Chiefs nominee Dan Caine if he would push back on Trump if he tried to politicize the military, as his predecessors had to do. He assured Senators he would. Where is Caine now? In hiding? Witness protection? What is he doing about this?

In this moment I am proud of you Governor Gavin Newsom Thank you "DO NOT GIVE INTO IT" "IT'S TIME FOR ALL OF US TO STAND UP" @governor.ca.gov

We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.

Trump actually managed to push CNN into saying the truth plainly, which is no small feat

It's been really demoralizng how much the press mindlessly repeats the lie that the National Guard was sent to quell violence. It was sent to start violence. People know this, so just say it.

Stephen Miller represents everything vile about this administration and drawing more attention to him will (a) make it harder for the administration to pretend this isn't creepy white nationalism in action and (b) likely make Trump jealous to the point he shitcans him like Elon. Win-win.

More people should be talking about the utter freak that is Stephen Miller and his white nationalist worldview. He's the architect behind most of this chaos as Trump is golfing, falling asleep during meetings, making money of memecoins and tripping while climbing stairs.

I was a medic at the Santa Ana protests in OC today. I watched police fire tear gas, flash bangs, & rubber bullets into crowds of men, women, & children. Other medics and I were clearly marked with red crosses, and the police were targeting us. One of the most fucked up things I’ve ever seen.

This is a pretty important point!

If ABC News is going to capitulate to fascists by suspending a senior reporter for reporting the FACT that Stephen Miller is a bile-filled “world-class hater,” then I guess it’s up to us. You know what to do… 🔄

MAGA, I thought you all defended free speech and the First Amendment, right? Why are you so upset about Terry Moran's comments? Stop being such snowflakes, right? Stop looking for safe spaces. Man up.

If you really want to drive the point home about how fucked up ICE is then people should start forcing Star Wars themes on ICE. Protesters should start playing the imperial march whenever ICE shows up and should also start dressing like the rebel alliance.

You cannot go about your life thinking about ways to avoid making fascists angry. You will not succeed, and you will not be free.

ICE crossed a line in LA

What the fuck is the point of paying money to a police department if they won’t protect people from hostile masked kidnappers?

The SEIU-USWW President was just arrested at an anti-ICE demonstration after ICE kidnappings in LA. PLZ SHOW UP! FRIDAY JUNE 6 AT 4pm PST DOWNTOWN LA FEDERAL BUILDING 300 N LOS ANGELES ST, LOS ANGELES, CA 90012 #StrongerTogether #LosAngeles #50501Movement #FiftyFiftyOne #NoKings #PeoplesMovement
