theres just no coming back from this without a complete tear down and rebuild of some of our most major institutions

“I would also note that under Barack Obama, 197 general officers were removed,” Mr. Hegseth said in testimony before the House Armed Services Committee. “So this is not something specific to this administration.” The number Mr. Hegseth gave has no basis in fact. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/29/u...

Trump is still whining about the Chancellor of Germany after the Chancellor said the U.S. is being humiliated by Iran and has no clear exit strategy

An important update: Texas courts created such an unprecedented situation in an emergency filing last night, no one knows who is in charge of InfoWars, and therefore no one can pay rent. Since no one controls these assets right now, it does appear InfoWars will shut down tonight at midnight.

Why has our country fallen so far? Because a major political party built its brand on constant outrageous lying.

EXCLUSIVE: Newly obtained documents show a clear paper trail of Trump administration officials planning to share sensitive voter data with an outside political group trying to overturn elections, as part of a secret agreement. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

(WSJ) - The U.S. national debt now exceeds 100% of gross domestic product, crossing a once-unthinkable threshold, on the way toward breaking the record set in the wake of World War II. @wsj.com www.wsj.com/economy/u-s-...

“The supreme court betrayed Black voters, they betrayed America, and they betrayed our democracy.” - Barack Obama

When a Black man became president, it was an assault on Republicans white privilege that they've been outraged about ever since and are doing everything in their power to make sure never happens again. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed #VoteOutRepublicans

ASAP…

Gas prices hit a new national high this morning. I don’t know what planet Tim Scott is on, but you can’t BS your way through people’s price struggles.

Good Morning ☀️ Let’s begin the day with a little boy who understands the importance of being inclusive, showing mutual respect for his competition 🏅🥋 There’s room at the top to share the spotlight ~ it doesn’t take away from your success. Imagine what a world we could have 🕊️ #SheShed #Respect

Suspending a primary election days before early voting starts just so you can redraw the maps to disenfranchise Black and brown voters is a perfect example of the lengths Republican politicians will go to rig our democracy in their favor.

The *unredacted* Epstein files along with the *unredacted* Mueller Report You want my vote - you make this happen

The Supreme Court is apparently only there to remove the rights of women and minorities, at this point.

The opposition thrives on your hopelessness, hoping you will give up the fight. But no rigged system is permanent. History shows that authoritarianism always fails when enough people simply refuse to back down.

Any questions?? #SheShed #Pinks

From what I understand with the redistricting Republicans could gain up to four seats if they do lots of crazy possibly illegal stuff as soon as humanly possible BUT if there’s a blue wave and they’re redistricting with 2024 numbers they could dummymander themselves into disaster

There are four black SUVs parked outside my house because I dropped my fries 🍟 at McDonald’s.

Yes, he should.

More recognition is needed.

Rep. @justinjpearson.bsky.social : “This is an attack on Black political power. To take away our representation.”

Reminder: All People Had To Do Was Fill In A Little Oval Next To The Smart Black Lady’s Name.

Mike Lee blames Capitol Hill reporters for the $39 trillion national debt.

Ya, the left really needs to tone down the rhetoric....

We are very far off the cliff here folks. 🇺🇸 www.reuters.com/world/us/lou...

Timely truth.

So many people urge us to vote if we are dissatisfied with our democracy. And yes voting matters. But as today’s Supreme Court ruling tells us, it’s not that simple. Not everyone who should have the right to vote can exercise that right.

That's a shame. Assholes deserve this.

RYAN: Before the war starter, there was clear intelligence that the base was high on Iran's target list and internal analysis that said the site is indefensible. Yet you sent our soldiers there anyway. True or false? HEGSETH: Are you just gonna play gotcha? RYAN: Six of our soldiers are dead

Powell: "After my term ends on May 15, I will continue to serve as a governor for a period of time to be determined"

Kennedy has upended the way our government approaches vaccines, drug trials, water fluoridation, and much more. The public deserves to know how those decisions came to be, and the records that can show us—emails, text messages, drafts of reports, and much more—are public by law.

The blockade of the Strait of Hormuz prevented the UAE from assisting the Southern Transition Council and the Saudis bombed the shit out of them causing their collapse. The majority of the pink territory on this map just a few months ago was stable and controlled by the STC. Now it's Al Qaeda.

Brilliant!

A Supreme Court so fundamentally hostile to the rights of minority voters places the Court at odds with democracy itself. This is the legacy of Chief Justice John Roberts. I opposed his nomination back in 2005, and I stand by that.

WHITESIDES: Do you have Signal on your phone? HURST: I'm sorry. Why is this relevant? WHITESIDES: Do you have Signal on your phone? H: What does this have to do with the budget? W: I'm going to take that as a yes. I hope it's not official policy that you can have Signal on your official phones

If the Democrats don't make rebalancing and expanding the Supreme Court a top priority for whenever (if?) they next get into power, then I don't know what to say anymore. The GOP-packed court is the biggest block on progress in this country and has been for a while.

Y'all think Merrick Garland was slow, Todd Blanche just said the seashell case took almost a year. #SeashellGate

The Voting Rights Act was paid for in blood on the bridge in Selma. Today, a conservative majority finished tearing down what those heroes died to build. It is a devastating betrayal of our history and our fundamental rights.

Hegseth: "We live in a dangerous world against a determined enemy that can't have a nuclear weapons, and that requires sacrifice and risk. Tragically, in this case it meant 6 Americans lost their lives and others were wounded. We all know that. That's part of the cost."

GOP in a nutshell... #Iran #Epstein #EpsteinFiles

TRAN: Driscoll testified he refused to strike the names of 2 female and 2 Black officers from a promotion list due to their exemplary service, names which were ultimately removed. Did you order him to do that? HEGSETH: I removed those names TRAN: Why? HEGSETH: Bc we review every general officer

OMFG

HEGSETH: I know that there is no country on planet earth that takes more measures to ensure that civilian harm or casualties are minimized than the United States of America and this War Department. And that is a fact. TOKUDA: You eliminated the department's civilian harm reduction staff

Senator Vindman started out by saying he wants to find out what part of the testimony is flexible and which is truth. Is it about the soldiers? Or is it about the President looking bad? Probably the best question asked today.

SCOTUS in a 6-3 ruling on Louisiana V Callais, just killed a majority Black district in Louisiana. All 6 Republican leaning Justices, Led by Justice Samuel Alito — So please 🙏🏼 Vote! Vote in numbers that can’t be disputed and preferably for candidates that support expanding the Supreme Court.
