FYI.

lord willing we will one day prosecute miller for crimes against humanity

Marco had further to fall than Lindsey Graham but he executed his plunge with amazing skill. What scum.

and no reporter challenged her.

Karoline Leavitt is lying right now.

She is an ICON

The Courage to SPEAK OUT! 💪 Not just in giant, Blue State cities, but all across America, people made their VOICES heard. Here, in a pouring downpour, Hands Off protesters came out in Carbondale, Illinois - in deep red Jackson County represented by Trump puppet Mike Bost - to RESIST! FIGHT ON !!!

Terre Haute IN #HandsOff!

PROTEST - Call to Action! All across the US on Saturday, April 5th. Please attend. Visit map and zoom in to find your nearest protest. Pls repost. www.mobilize.us/handsoff/map/

Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

A great night for Democrats: 1. Susan Crawford beats Schimel/Musk/Trump is Wisconsin and appears to be on track for a landslide. 2. Cory Booker delivers historic motivation. 3. +17 swing toward Dems in FL-01 from November 4. +19 swing toward Dems in FL-06 from November Damn good night for Dems.

Retweet this if Cory Booker is making you cry with pride and hope right now.

If you are not watching @booker.senate.gov right now, drop everything and turn him on. History in the making.

Longest speaking filibuster ever was 24 hours, 18 minutes by Strom Thurmond in opposition to the Civil Rights Act of 1957. In a few hours, that record will be shattered by Sen. Cory Booker, a Black man, laying out the case for saving democracy from an aspiring despot.

Great idea 👀👇👇👇

Dear Democratic Members of Congress, Stop telling me about what he's doing. We can all see it. Start telling me about what you're doing to stop it! Signed, Americans

A very old Soviet joke, from an especially dark time: Foxes are fleeing the USSR in droves. Q: Why are you running away? Fox: The Soviets passed a new law that they’re going to arrest all camels. Q: But you’re foxes! Fox: Yeah, why don’t *you* try proving to the NKVD that you’re not a camel.

Reminder: the First Amendment protects everyone who resides in our country. It doesn't matter if you have a green card or a visa or if you're undocumented. The Supreme Court has repeatedly affirmed that any person residing in the United States, regardless of status, is entitled to 1A protections.

Every single Democratic lawmaker should be calling for Hegseth's immediate resignation right now. Not just some. Not just a few dozen. Every single one, starting at the top with Mr. Schumer and Mr. Jeffries. And the fact that it hasn't happened yet is nearly as shocking as Hegseth's conduct.

Let's communicate this more and LOUDLY!!! #bluewave #truth #peoplepower ##unite

This is why Trump and the republicans want to kill the department of education. 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇

Trump Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick explains that elderly people who would complain about not receiving their Social Security checks are fraudsters.

Democrats need to have disciplined messaging on this clip right here for the next 3 days. We have the memory of goldfish. All hands on deck around this clip of Lutnick and Social Security revealing the greed and cruelty of Trump, Musk, and the GOP.

BREAKING: Elon Musk's rocket explosion nearly hit a commercial flight. This kind of content is being downranked on X. Please share it here. This is so dangerous.

Just restating the simple point: President lacks the constitutional authority to close a department created by Congress. Full stop. Both the creation and on-going funding of these Depts are LAWS not suggestions. This is criminal conduct. www.wsj.com/politics/pol... via @WSJ

My word.

This is quite a kicker in Thomas Edsall’s latest op-ed. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/04/o...

After Trump & Vance’s utterly disgraceful performance it’s good to see European leaders step up. It’s profoundly American to criticize our leaders when they stray from democratic principles let alone what we are seeing in Trump’s administration. As a proud American I intend to fight for our country.

I never repost tiktoks but this one made me smile
