Quote from Senator Duckworth on The Trump's administration decision to kill a VA home loan program. He really does think they are losers and suckers.

Oh. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt is big mad about this picture? Would be a shame if people saw it. 🍿

The SAVE Act is voter suppression—not security. It would purge millions, especially married women with name changes, low-income voters without passports, and more. Tell Your Senators: Vote NO to protect our democracy!

An explainer on the "SAVE" act. It is a moving topic and is an undercurrent that may be important for the upcoming election(s). youtu.be/SNL8b8YoYx4?...

From the linked article: The British newspaper Daily Mail is out with a deeply researched investigative report It’s shocking in its detail and its implication that Vladimir Putin has basically owned Donald Trump for years, even before Trump ran for president in 2016. www.msn.com/en-in/news/w...

Trump & Putin "This is not about politics or personality. It’s about whether a country can survive being led by someone who looks captured and compromised by a foreign power. If even half of this is true, then staying quiet is the same as going along with it." hartmannreport.com/p/the-manchu...

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

🚨BREAKING: President Donald Trump said Wednesday that “we shouldn’t even have an election,” as he complained about the political risks his party faces in the 2026 midterms and boasted about his accomplishments. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Hilton Hotels doubles-down on their support for the American Gestapo. When looking for a hotel, there are *plenty* of other choices.

Hi Bluesky, God just needs 17k followers to hit 600k. And then 66k more after that to hit 666k. That will be funny. Thanks, God

This is quite the post. 1. He unambiguously directs his AG to go after those who investigated him for his crimes 2. He admits being influenced by online chatter He is mob bossing out in the open, because he knows he has corrupted every federal law enforcement agency into submission.

There’s no hiding the political retaliation and weaponization. It’s all out in the open.

FUN FACT: If Kamala was POTUS right now, NONE of our trade or diplomatic relations would be up in smoke. NONE of our farms and agribusiness would be going belly up. NONE of the soft power we used to get great trade opportunities would have dried up. All of this was avoidable.

The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents. In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.

The cover-up continues

There is no moral justification for today’s extraordinary concentration of wealth. It is distorting politics, rigging markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people. Closing our staggering wealth gap is crucial to the survival of our economy and our democracy.

Were you to ask Leavitt etc, they would identify themselves as patriots whose beliefs rest on the country’s foundation. But with their talk of demons and evil, they are framing reality in a way that would justify Donald Trump’s campaign for fascist power. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/tragedy-br...

They want us fighting so we never notice who is stealing from us all. Don’t get lost in the circus.

I don’t think Stephen Miller has ever made a pussy wet in his entire life.

Is it just I but it seems to me we’ve drifted quite a bit from Thomas Jefferson’s word in the Declaration: “Governments are instituted among men, and derive their just powers from the consent of the governed.” Very few of the governed seem to be consenting to what’s going on these days!

Gabbard Unveils Plan to Slash Top Spy Agency by 40% This Year flip.it/4Kd8nt PUTIN'S HONEYPOT DOES NOT NEED OUR SPY INTEL SERVICES. SHE HAS THE KGB AT HER FULL DISPOSAL. PLUS OUR AGENTS MIGHT UNCOVER & COMPROMISE HER MISSION.

We are very far off the cliff, folks. 🇺🇸

WOW. @marcelias.bsky.social goes off on the failures of legacy media: "We have an absolute collapse and failure by the institutions that have promised us that democracy would not die in darkness, that in fact, they stand for the proposition that democracy will die in plain sight of daylight."

Sending troops into US cities against their will. Strong-arming corporations and extracting gifts in exchange for tariff exemptions. Calling on state governments to gerrymander in his favor. Trump is the "big government" nightmare conservatives have always warned us about.

GOOD TWEET. GOOD MOOD. FIGHT.

Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner is joining other leaders in denouncing President Donald Trump’s threat to send troops to combat crime. They say the plan is based on a false premise. thetr.ac/7ckw3

The President cannot commandeer any local law enforcement. The President does not run the Smithsonian. The monthly BLS jobs report is required by law. Release the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

There you have it.

Interesting. Does anyone know how this turned out? encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/a...

The vicious cycle of monopolization: 1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market. 2) Use their monopoly power to gouge consumers. 3) Take a portion of their profits to make political donations. 4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement. 5) Repeat.

FBI agents are not trained to patrol streets. And every agent that is assigned to do that is NOT investigating: *foreign spies stealing gov’t and trade secrets *foreign and domestic terrorist threats *crimes like fraud, corruption, trafficking, and violent crimes (among others) Do you feel safer?

usually if you ask experts why an empire fell they’ll say it’s nuanced and multifaceted, so i think it’s kind of cool that with America future historians will get to just say like “oh they took the idiot train to moronsville”

Good morning. Trump is protecting Epstein files. The confederacy lost and they were traitors, mRNA vaccines are the future, cops shouldn’t wear masks, Trump cut taxes for the rich and ripped benefits from the poor. Have a weekend

Things that will happen when he's gone: * we're going to learn about shit he did that's so heinous, it makes the stuff we know about look tame * his many minions will claim to have "always opposed" him and demand sympathy for their suffering at his hands * dancing in the streets, worldwide

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office. 2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor. 3) Donors make a huge profit. 4) Repeat. For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

People should acquaint themselves with what Ghislaine Maxwell did. She’s not a victim or an enabler. She is a convicted child sex trafficker.
