Wild how the Fed chair saying that *entire regions of the United States* won’t be able to get a mortgage in the next decade barely registered as a news event

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

Just sayin' ......

They are taking money from the poor to hand to the rich. Reverse Robin Hood politics. We must reject the “Big Beautiful” Bullshit.

President Zelensky looks much better in the chair. He's also, notably AWAKE 😉

Carney winking & Macron trying not to laugh. Priceless!

What's that thing rogue cops say to a minority in custody? If you can talk, you can breathe. Relax.

A ballon of "B" words defining the Republban's Big Budget Bill www.instagram.com/reel/DKIFtX3... (don't worry, it'll play even if you don't "sign-in"

"It is believed that Secretary Noem may have been inadvertently exposed to trace amounts of integrity."

In case you still had any doubts about those claims of racism.

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered. Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again. Their inaction is deadly.

Have you figured out yet that trump doesn't really want "peace", but that he merely wants a "piece" of the action?

I wrote this four days ago. Today, they arrested the NYC Comptroller.

Thou shalt expel Mike Lee from the Senate and banish him from society, for he mocked and celebrated the murder of a political opponent.

This is well stated. Mike Lee will forever be associated in my mind with his unbelievably cruel and stupid tweets about the Hortman assassination. He is a disgrace to the Senate and Utah.

If SCOTUS can "revisit" Roe, it's well past time for SCOTUS to revisit the Pussy's immunity!

That moron (who lunches with Putin on Independence Day) clearly doesn't understand the difference between "deficit" and "debt" and how continual "deficits" add up over the years to INCREASE "debt"!

Just read where the murder "suspect" in Minnesota is being charged federally with murder and stalking charges. I do hope that Minnesota files state-level murder and stalking charges, because of the possibility that the criminal in the white house pardons this politically-motivated killer...

WTF is WRONG with the REPUBLIBAN in the US Senate? They just confirmed BILLY LONG to be IRS Commissioner!!!!!!! www.govtrack.us/posts/511/20...

Now What?? Election tampering was confirmed. The majority of US media outlets are owned by MAGAts, and they're not covering it. Read both articles. 1) Economic Times: tinyurl.com/47y3jx3b 2) This Will Hold Substack: substack.com/inbox/post/1...

HOLY SHIT, Philly showed up strong for No Kings Day! This is what democracy looks like! 🙏💪

I would love to see a 50-state campaign to pass free school lunch and anti-gun measures in tribute.

A masked MAGAT gunman attacked protesters in Phoenix. No shots were fired as far as I know. Police subdued him in seconds and carted him away. Thanks to the police for doing an outstanding job protecting the public.

Chalked my front sidewalks with #NoKings ... Retired my US Flag 'til that POS leaves office ... Just an NV Flag in the second spot on the pole 'til that happens.

"This is what you get when you order your 79th birthday celebration from Temu, but didn't pay the tariffs."

Barber: A would be king has ordered U.S. troops to occupy Los Angeles and parade down the streets of Washington DC. We are here to say that is not who we are

ABSOLUTE BEST sign I've seen

Basically, what happened yesterday was that Trump used $50M of our tax dollars to humiliate himself (and every American) with sloppily marching troops and squeaky old tanks on DC streets.

Our able men and women in uniform swear an Oath to support the Constitution—they didn’t sign up to spend the weekend in a military parade to feed the insatiable narcissism of an incorrigible insurrectionist/dictator.

Happy Fathers Day to everyone except that one guy. Fuck him

My wish for today is that our tax dollars wouldn't be wasted on this delusional destructive clown. I would prefer to feed and help the destitute.

I'm seeing too much of the latter and not enough of the former from those in the wrong-wing (I refuse to call them the "right" wing, that implication is just too much for me).

Let's all be the rain on this motherfucker's parade. #NoKings #NoKingsDay

@democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social

A reminder to reporters, when historians look back on this moment with the president throwing himself a military parade and the people throwing No Kings rallies across America, the media sources raving about the former and sneering at the latter are going to be quoted by name. This is your legacy!

We have entered the "The police is saying that if the police is at your door you are not safe call the police immediately" stage of making America great again

Just got a DM in my "neighborhood" app warning me it was illegal to post about ICE sightings and I was going to be in trouble if I didn't take it down. Not only does that NOT intimidate me, but it means I'll post more of the same more frequently there, my response was FUCK ICE & FUCK DJT 💙🇺🇸💪🏼🏴‍☠️⚡️
