For any Republicans out there-- don't you see what's happening? Your elected officials, drunk with power, are quietly and quickly getting filthy rich. And in exchange, they're cutting your Medicaid, cutting your education funding, cutting SNAP benefits, cutting medical research.

Swearing-in for a Trump cabinet member likely to carry out some of the admin’s most legally dubious actions, in a SCOTUS justice’s home, in front of his copy of the infamous billionaire-commissioned painting that embodies the whole court capture scheme. Not great.

Jim Acosta's closing message is a must-watch.

submitted 136 days ago • 388 comments

Jim Acosta just powerfully announced on air he is leaving CNN with the words: "It is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant." He added, "Don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to the fear. Hold on to the truth and to hope." Amen. Jim will be missed.

It's hard to keep up with all the degradation and corruption. When I hear "the DOJ is doing x" I sometimes forget it's a new DOJ and that Biden is gone and I think, wtf? Then the horrible reality sets in.

Montage of clips of Trump “guaranteeing” that he will end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours of taking office, that “it wouldn’t even be tough” for him to do, and that “everyone will be happy” with the end result.

If you’re feeling despair today, I understand. But Trump’s second term will expose a reality that's been hidden from many Americans: the raw, stinking power of the American oligarchy. I’m hopeful that America will see this reality for what it is and respond to it. youtu.be/bepjl3orz1A?...

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social on Mike Johnson considering conditioning disaster aid: "Never in California did we question whether or not we, as taxpayers in the largest state in the Union, should support the people of Louisiana at a time of emergency and need. We’d never condition it."

Maybe so many members of Congress think the stock market is an accurate reflection of the economy because they spend so much time trading stocks. Prohibiting members of Congress from trading stock is a total no brainer.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "We have 8,400 firefighters working the lines; 16,000 personnel; 2,500 National Guard trying to address the issue of looting; 750 CHP as we speak; we have the EPA starting to do phase 1 of the debris removal...

Mike Johnson is threatening to condition California wildfire aid to raising the debt ceiling, which would pave the way for another round of deficit-spiking tax cuts for the wealthy. Playing politics with people's lives to make your donors richer is reprehensible.
