Happy International Transgender Day of Visibility!

👀

Trump/GOP are picking Americans’ pockets, stealing Americans’ hard earned savings with skyrocketing costs, illegal tariffs & eliminating healthcare subsides! Trump/GOP cut healthcare to pay for their foreign war of choice & ICE! Americans know the scam! It shows in the polling! #FundHealthcareNotWar

Today is the International Transgender Day of Visibility #TDOV! Trans people are deserving of love, dignity, respect, equality, & freedom to live openly, authentically! I am a PROUD trans ally!🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 Even as Trump/GOP & a conservative SCOTUS push to erase trans & all LGBTQIA+ folks, we’re here to stay!

Graphic from Rep. @friedman.house.gov On International Transgender Day of Visibility, a reminder that those living their true selves are not doing so with any ease and like all of us just want to live with as much joy and freedom as they can.

Looks like poor Chad is going through some things. Gubernatorial candidate and Riverside Co Sheriff Chad Bianco suspends election fraud probe as legal challenges mount. May the white supremacist and Oath Keeper’s member reap what he sows. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Trump is now basically following what Putin has done in Ukraine. In the process he’s also making America into a rogue nation and an international pariah that routinely commits war crimes

No matter what Trump tells people, if this happens America would be handing a key choke point in the oil based economy to Iran-inexplicably both losing the war and elevating the world’s biggest sponsor of terrorism to an economic superpower It would be a disastrous outcome, all caused by Trump

BREAKING: GENERAL STRIKE The economy only works if we do. Friday, May 1 🚫No work 🚫No school 🚫No shopping You in? 🤚🏽

Democratic presidential candidates for 2028 — white Christian males only? If this is really the conversation happening at the top of the party, we are fucked. Democrats haven’t won the white majority since LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act. That’s not why we lost 2024. 🧵

If we are asked to pay the ultimate price, the lives of our sons and daughters.Congress must debate it and vote on this war. No more endless conflicts without clear purpose. No more decisions made without accountability. #WarPowersACT NOW ! Thank you @repsuhas.bsky.social for protecting OUR voice

Rep Joe Neguse (D-CO) is so good at calling out MAGA Republicans kabuki theater of politics. The reason Trumps Little Johnson (R-LA) won’t bring the bipartisan bill to fund DHS, passed unanimously by the Senate is because the last guy that did got fired. Republicans are weak AF!!

Rep Casar (D-TX) rails against Trump for saying that $200 billion is a small price to pay for his war with Iran. MAGA Republicans are looking to kick 300K Americans off of the ACA to fund this war of choice. #FundHealthCareNotWar Americans don’t want anymore forever wars‼️

Every election—be it midterm or presidential; the GOP finds some damn🦝 to come out and talk crap about the Democrats in an attempt to sway the Black vote. This year, it's Nick Cannon—whose claim to fame is how many kids he has. Now he's tap dancing for Trump.

Trump’s melting down because allies won’t sign up for an offensive war he started. No Article 5 for wars you start. And right under it, an ad asking, “Do you blame Trump for increase on gas ?”

A throne with a golden toilet just went up on the National Mall, in front of the Washington Monument, protesting Trump’s grandiose White House renovations. It includes a roll of toilet paper that reads “The Secret Handshake,” from the same group responsible for the statue of Trump and Epstein.

How did your broker get that information, Pete? Did you have him on some kind of group chat, or was it just a bog standard (for you) leak of classified information?

When Democrats retake the majority, there will be a lot of priorities. As long as I'm in the Senate, one of those priorities will be consequences and accountability for any member of this administration that commits war crimes.

"Conversion therapy" doesn't work. It never has and never will. All it does is teach a young person to feel shame for who they are and that repression later manifests into unhealthy behavior. Today's Supreme Court ruling will result in a generation of shame and subsequent harm.

On International Transgender Visibility Day it is important to remind that this should not be a partisan issue.

You just wonder each day what these people have in store for you next.

it's always roblox man

There is a Hungarian election on April 12th. What happens if Viktor Orban loses? I'm guessing Orban, backed by Putin, won't leave. Putin's operative, Trump with obedient Little Marco Rubio's help and J.D. Vance are openly pro-Orban. In other news, Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.

This reminds me of the attempted bullying of other countries by Bush and allies in the run up to the Iraq war - remember "freedom fries?" Only this is more desperate and lame. Given the terrible outcome for Tony Blair then, why would Starmer go along with this insane government?

International diplomacy through trolling.

I saw Project Hail Mary for the second time last night. My daughter and her boyfriend wanted to watch with me. Amaze amaze amaze. Truly the 2.5 hour escape for our time.

Again, there is a literal term that stock brokers use for the predictability of Trump backing down.

this is stenography, not journalism. there is zero evidence this is true: Hegseth Says Coming Days in Iran War Will Be Decisive

There was a deal on the table. And you bombed instead.

#ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited #Pinks Today is Kristi Noem’s last day as DHS director. Good riddance to her and her fu*k buddy, Cory Lewandowski. Never forget the murder and chaos they wrought on Minneapolis. Good and Pretti should still be with us. Damn DonOLD & his evil sycophants. Burn in Hell.

Wait i thought you were big tough guys who didn’t need any woke shit like “help” or “allies” what happened? Calling troops fatties for not looking like underwear models didn’t work? bsky.app/profile/atru...

They. Just. Lie.

REP. RICH McCORMICK: This is one of the amazing things about President Trump -- you don't know what he's going to do. As you know, he's announced probably several plans BERMAN: We are quite aware that he's offered several plans. Sometimes they conflict each other

This is Jesse Owens at his gold medal ceremony after defeating Nazi Germany’s Luz Long at the 1936 Berlin Olympics.

Canada has been repeatedly insulted by the US for over a year, so please understand why the country is not jumping to assist in a war anyone with a brain would have indicated was a bad idea

"Hey, as king, can you launch a war on impulse—just because you feel like it—without any planning for what comes next and the whole world just has to suck it up and go along with it?" "No, the king doesn't have that authority." "Well, then, guess who's bigger than a king!"

speak loudly and ask if you can borrow somebody else’s stick

As a protestant, this feels strange to say, but the point at which an adult convert to Catholicism has been rebuked by two Popes in one year and then goes on to write a memoir called 'Communion' about his faith, they ought to bring excommunication back. This guy is evidently an unrepentant heretic.

Huh.

RUBIO: “Imagine if Iran spent billions on its people instead of weapons... They’d have a much different country.”🤔😕 Unreal. @marcorubio Do you even hear yourselves? Your shameless hypocrisy is killing us

WATCH — @jessicatarlov.bsky.social : “Last time there were 6 million people, this time there were 8 million. 3300 rallies. All 50 states. 2/3rds in suburbs… and a record high # of Republicans are retiring early.” #NoKings (From @acyn.bsky.social )

Today is International Transgender Day of Visibility! 🏳️‍⚧️ It's an opportunity to celebrate our transgender, gender diverse, and non-binary community! I see you & I support you! 🏳️‍⚧️

ProPublica spoke to dozens of people who’ve worked on U.S. immunization programs. They shared a pit-of-the-stomach dread that future American children will fight for their lives against infections that have long been preventable. By @sheinvestigates.bsky.social

Trump does have a strategy: lie about everything. Now, with Iran that means saying we achieved all our goals, mission accomplished, and now we move on.

When you’re so far in over your head that even the dyed, dead rat on your head knows it. You started the fire, literally and figuratively, and now you want to run. You’re not respected around the world. You’re a dangerous, demented fool.

1. The AI industry has tapped Taylor Budowich, a key operative in the effort to undermine the outcome of the 2020 presidential election, to lead a new group dedicated to boosting GOP candidates in the 2026 midterms. The group is reportedly planning to spend $100 million.

Just a reminder that 18 U.S. Code § 592 makes it a crime punishable by 5 years in prison to deploy federal troops to polling places.

Truly an impressive feat, given how much Americans hated the Biden economy
