Adam Kinzinger, one of two Republican members on the Jan. 6 Committee, isn't afraid of Trump—and neither are we.

🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” 🇺🇸

I got up did a thing today. I wasn’t planning on talking, but no one was talking a lot about acting locally to affect change. So I waited my turn and reminded everyone that part of the reason why we’re in this place is because of gerrymandering in states like Texas.

Forget about term limits. How about EO limits?

Getting the old grocery garden going again.

“Private schools might find themselves under no obligation to accept any of our kids; they could be rejected because of their religious affiliation, their disabilities, on the grounds that they’re not bright enough, because administrators don’t like their looks—any reason not excluded by law.”

Big Pharma spiked prices on hundreds of critical meds this year, despite Trump’s promise to bring prices down. His response: pal around w/Big Pharma executives, fire consumer watchdogs responsible for rooting out fraud, waste, and abuse, and seek more tax breaks for pharma companies & execs.

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

This is why we feel like we can’t get anything done in Washington. Both senators are bought and paid for.

Unlike Elon Musk and the DOGE, we know what it’s like to actually work for a living. And we’re not going to let one unaccountable billionaire rig the government for himself. That’s where we come in. We’re the Department of People Who Work for a Living. deptofpeoplewhowork.org

Get’em.

Vouchers are a scam. Full stop.

"You don’t have to justify your existence. You are enough." To see a trans man and a non-binary character share this kind of connection on primetime TV is rare, but it shouldn’t be. Grateful to Rashad Raisani, Miles McKenna, and the entire #911LoneStar team for making this story happen.

Is any senator, member of Congress, or really anyone in a position of any actual power or authority, going to step up and express outrage with an actual plan to DO SOMETHING? These dipshit social media posts being like “Things are bad and illegal! 🥴” are about to make my head explode

BD Riley’s has probably been here a while, but we’ve been looking for it since we came back.
