ICYMI: Republicans are trying to pass a bill to kick 16 million Americans off their health care and cut food assistance by $300 billion, while adding trillions to the deficit. Why? All to give a massive tax break to the wealthiest billionaires and corporations.

They were supposed to be deporting “gang members” and “criminals.” So far, they have kidnapped people working their day jobs and folks lawfully showing up for their immigration court appearances… It was always a lie.

Gas is $3.50 a gallon, butter is $6 bucks a pound, eggs are $4 bucks a dozen, we’re at war with Iran, South African Nazis stole all our data, and ICE is throwing citizens in detention camps. But hey, at least those 3 trans kids can’t play volleyball anymore.

Posting stuff with no attribution or evidence to support what’s said or implied - in other words, just to scare people - is one of the downfalls of social media. Always ask who, what, where, when, why. And what’s the source.

Happy Juneteenth, Indiana! Today we celebrate the end of slavery across our country and honor those who have fought for freedom for generations.

Juneteenth calls us to understand the realities of our past, celebrate the resilience and achievements of Black Americans, and align the course of our country toward its founding creed of liberty and justice for all. Wishing everyone a meaningful Juneteenth!

Juneteenth is the perfect moment to remind everyone of two facts: 1. Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it. 2. Those who prevent history from being taught are plotting to repeat it. Read this out loud. Read it again. Then teach it to your kids.

Wait. Is it Made in China or is it Designed in the USA and Made in China? Or is it Made in China, using Taiwanese parts, and Designed in the USA? Or is it Made in the USA and Designed in China by some guy from Taiwan? How do the tariffs work again? Russian spyware included!

BREAKING: What you just witnessed was a state-sanctioned kidnapping. These people aren’t identifying themselves. Citizens can no longer distinguish between state authority & rogue violence. This is not a warning about what might come. We are not watching the start of something. We are living it.

As many nations ban books, Finland began teaching school children how to identify misinformation and propaganda as a part of its curriculum. They score highest for media literacy in Europe. If only the U.S. would do the same. But the GOP survives on misinformation.

This is yet another flagrant and unlawful overreach by Trump. California has operated its own policies under the Clean Air Act since Reagan was Governor — and rolling back our ability to clean up our air is a direct attack on our state's right to protect public health.

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference. But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

When President Johnson activated the Nat'l Guard in Alabama in 1965 over Gov. Wallace's objection he did it to protect protesters advocating for voting rights for Black people who had previously met violence at the hands of state troopers. Very different situation.

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.

Before anyone gets too excited about this, see below. Elon is not on our side. He’s on Elon’s side. Which means they’re going to get back together. & what important developments will we have missed in the meantime? Ukraine? ICE detaining kids? The budget passing?

PSA: Do not let the Musk & Trump feud distract you from the fact that both want to rob us of basic healthcare, civil rights, & economic security—all while lining the pockets of billionaires. This childish feud is a distraction. Stay focused on ensuring we stop this horrific bill from becoming law.
