The Fort Bragg thingis extremely bad but the fact that they screened the soldiers for political views is key. The propaganda is meant to make us afraid. Don’t be complacent but don’t be fooled either.

We know it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. It’s easy to feel worn down by our democracy being chipped away. YOU ARE NOT ALONE IN THIS FIGHT. Look at this map of NO KINGS protests. There are OVER 1,800 in the US, South America & Europe! This is a GLOBAL stand. Join us on JUNE 14th for NO KINGS ❌👑

Now everyone will go look up the book and it will make NY Times. #sighs #booksky #writingcommunity

San Diego neighborhood makes ICE agents retreat

With this awful terror attack in Colorado, Congress needs to ask how many federal resources have been pulled from counterterrorism to deport Hispanics?

GOP: “The best kind of healthcare is…a job.” 🤦‍♀️ They couldn’t be more out of touch if they tried, folks. #johnthune

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.

Kamala Harris on “the big, beautiful bill:” “It’s an agenda...a narrow, self-serving vision of America...where they punish truth tellers, favor loyalists, profit from their power, and leave everyone else to fend for themselves.” Nailed it! 🔥

RFK Jr. is reportedly going to forbid government scientists from publishing in the world’s most respected medical journals — the Lancet, The New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, etc. It’s going to take decades to repair the damage done by this administration.

The Dept. of Justice has filed its first voter suppression lawsuit aimed at disenfranchising voters. This is a critical juncture for democracy. Paige and I discuss the implications and how it echoes claims made by failed state Supreme Court candidate Jefferson Griffin. youtu.be/8XEW-Ga428M

Florida tried and failed to pass its own proof-of-citizenship voting bill. Even “voting integrity” groups hated it. Why? Because it didn’t go far enough for them. Keep being loud and making your voice heard. We have power — now is the time to fight back.

Don’t miss @timmiller.bsky.social, @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social, and Crooked’s @jonlovett.bsky.social live in DC on June 6! They're raising money for the Immigrant Defenders Law Center, which represents Andry Hernandez Romero and others being held in El Salvador. www.ticketmaster.com/event/150062...

Today, we remember Uvalde. We remember the 19 children and 2 teachers who were mercilessly gunned down. The kids who hid underneath their dead classmates to survive. The parents who had to submit DNA to identify their own babies. We need an assault weapons ban. Now.

This week, I met with federal workers that President Trump fired. I will keep fighting for them and the work they’ve done every day in Congress.

My take on the consequences of the media's "original sin." member.democracydocket.com/the-medias-o...

NEW: "Whether or not HB 1205 survives legal scrutiny, the message for Florida voters is unmistakable. When citizen power becomes too effective, the Republican-led state will try to find a way to shut it down." www.democracydocket.com/analysis/gop...

Never back down to a bully—especially when the facts are on your side.

Harvard just flipped the switch. They’re not teaching you the Constitution for fun. They’re teaching it because your rights are being gutted in real time while you scroll memes and vote for your own executioners.

Another big FU from Harvard… free online courses on the US government, the US constitution, civic engagement, and more. pll.harvard.edu/subject/gove...

Kagan’s dissent in tonight’s shadow docket gutting of limits on pres. removal powers comes close to asserting the majority’s decision is illegitimate, saying they skipped the legal analysis for a stay, and decided the case before even hearing it, and I think she should just come out and say it

CNN sucks.

Are we great yet?

“If you haven’t been poor, don’t legislate for the poor.” - Rep Lateefah Simon, CA-12

McGovern: "This is not a governing philosophy. It is a scam. I wasn't sent here to vote for trash. I can't understand why you'd choose a career of public service to do this -- to rip away the healthcare & food assistance of working & middle class Americans. Is that really what you came here to do?"

McIver: "If I'm gonna be charged with a crime for doing my job, it just speaks to where we're headed in this country."

DURBIN: How can we give hope to people across the country who are suffering from so many diseases when our government is cutting back on that research? RFK Jr: I do not know about any cuts to ALS research D: I just read them to you! R: I didn't know about them until you told me about them

Crockett: That’s why they hired everybody from Fox because all they’re trying to do is put on a show.. I want us to refocus our attention on the American people and stop demonizing every person that ends up in ICE custody… *Applause* Van Drew: *bangs gavel*

He is completely clueless about what he is doing.

Does it matter if the pilot has never landed an aircraft before?
