We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.

An active duty service member has been sent to a mental health facility against his will after speaking out about ICE’s legal and humanitarian abuses. TikTokers took action, including writing @governor.ca.gov /

Medicare, also?

Agreed What about you??

Sen. Chris Murphy to NBC on Democratic opposition to the GOP mega-bill: "What we're standing in the way of is the most massive transfer of wealth from the poor and the middle class to the rich in the history of the country."

Get Musk the Hell Out of our Government.

The corruption is so out of control

Number of HHS Staff Cut: 10,000 Cost of generic asthma medication without insurance: $300/month Number of regulations passed to improve chronic health or the food chain: 0 Don't mistake a press release for action. RFKJ has done NOTHING to decrease chronic disease and much to hurt children.

Buttigieg: I’m not even an elected official or running for anything— I’m here. I can’t help but notice a lot of people who are elected officials aren’t. There’s a reason for that. They don’t want to have to explain this stuff

Truth

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America: 1. Break up corporate monopolies 2. Continue building union power 3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

#GVerse #Attention: Americans are rising up and demanding that #FuckTrump-#FuckMusk #FuckRepublicans keep their hands off our safety net and stop cuts to lifesaving health care. Join us — saveourhealthcare.org @pelosi.house.gov #MondayMotivation

#GVerse #Attention: 💪 Jasmine Crockett @repjasmine.bsky.social has made it official that she's running to be the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee following Rep. Connolly's announcement that he'll be stepping down. This is the #OrangeBuffoon’s worst nightmare.

Exactly!👇

Beyond outrageous.

The NYT has been doing phenomenal reporting on the blatant corruption of the Trump memecoin/crypto policy. Genuinely the most flagrant, bald-faced thing I’ve ever seen short of a politician getting sacks of cash.

If you’re wondering what Elon Musk has been up to it’s not about saving Americans money. It’s about saving himself money. Musk has used his position leading DOGE to illegally evade oversight, derail investigations, and make litigation disappear whenever he chooses, on his terms and at his command.
