Happy Fourth of July, New York City

He’s not even in office anymore and he’s still more presidential than the man who is.

Happy Fourth of July from Willie and me!

FEARLESS Black Americans have been confronting hatred with dignity for generations.

I didn't see Trumpy's speech, i didn't see his ugly face and I won't watch it later. We do know one thing. He 100% lied about everything he said.

There’s no difference between men marching in white masks and men marching in white hoods. None.

The same Republicans who were hysterical when asked to wear masks to prevent the spread of COVID19 have no problem wearing masks to spread their White Nationalist Christian hatred.

No, Laura. It’s not “Antifa.” It was Patriot Front, a white nationalist organization. They covered their faces because they’re cowards who don’t want to be identified. We’ve been saying for over a year that ICE officers shouldn’t be allowed to wear masks either. They are cowards also.

NO 👇 LIES DETECTED.......

Agree with Bernie Sanders.......

I AGREE!!!

Biggest Failure in American History...

Patriot Front came out of their moms’ basements, dusted off the Old Navy khakis, put on the white masks so they don’t get fired from their day jobs, and headed to Washington for America’s 250th birthday celebration. Four hundred self-described patriots, not one ounce of bravery.

In case you haven't seen this today.

For America's 250th, I read Frederick Douglass’ speech, “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” on the House floor—for the first time in history. His speech endures as a mirror & mandate for us all—to confront our inequities while fighting for an America as good as its promise.

4 MONTHS FROM TODAY are the Midterm Elections. Make sure you & everyone you know are registered to VOTE. VOTE for Dems to take back the House & Senate. VOTE to hold the most corrupt individual ever to occupy the WH accountable! VOTE to let our country to begin to heal. 🇺🇸 On 11/3/26: VOTE BLUE 🌊

Mayor Mamdani Is The Leader Of The Democratic Party 🥳, And A Very Good One.......💪🏻

Don't want to speak ill of the dead, so getting this Mitch McConnell take out now. He saw Trump with complete clarity, as a danger to America, but protected him anyway. Perhaps more than anyone, he had the power to end Trumpism, but chose party over country. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/jan-6-and-...

👀 FOX (!) On Trump’s Obscene $2 BILLION+ Self-Dealing: “We’re seeing a lot of the MAGA base turning on the president with this. They’re saying ‘Look— he really doesn’t care about us. He’s getting richer, I’m getting poorer.”

If you were cool with this, you can shove that "Happy Independence Day" up your ass.

The Tide will Turn and Impeachment with Conviction should be the First Step….

Some donors who intended to give to the bipartisan, congressionally chartered America250 initiative were instead steered to the partisan, Trump-backed Freedom 250, according to a report from House Dems. The report says that could amount to "potential wire fraud and charitable solicitation fraud."

NEW: In a span of weeks, SCOTUS let the president fire independent agency heads, scrapped refugee protections and came dangerously close to ending birthright citizenship. If Democrats want to make meaningful change, @briantylercohen.bsky.social writes, we need to expand the court — fast.

Jack Smith: "I think we are facing an attack on the rule of law that is different in kind and scope to anything I've seen in my lifetime"

They are arresting U.S. Air Force Officers for free speech and U.S. Olympians for curiosity—but not rich men for raping children with Jeffrey Epstein.

This is Harley. She's never rolled down a hill before, but she's super proud of her first attempt. 13/10 nailed it (TT: jesskoselke)

Dear republikkans, if you don't like the diversity of this country, then leave.

This man makes me wish I lived in Georgia so I could vote to reelect him to the Senate. I guess I'll just have to wait to vote for Jon Ossoff @ossoff.bsky.social when, hopefully, the Dems draft him to run for President! 🇺🇸 #AwesomeOssoff2028

Ok, this is an elected representative. How can he be this stupid? It's been precedent for 150 years! 🤣🤣🤣😎

Marco Rubio is against birthright citizenship. But Marco Rubio *is* a birthright citizen. Ted Cruz is against birthright citizenship. But Ted Cruz was born in Canada. He only got US citizenship by a birthright citizenship law because of his US mother. They are both shameless hypocrites.

I’m going to take a wild guess and say that not one dime went to veterans.

THIS IS WHAT IS CALLED FOR UNDER FASCISM — BRAVERY Before the attacks & the hot takes start, a few facts: Major Jason Watson is a graduate of the US Air Force Academy, a career logistics officer, a NATO officer, and a decorated veteran who volunteered for a 365-day tour in Afghanistan… 🧵

It's in the Constitution, under the 14th Amendment.

The twelve people who are out on the Mall need to be careful in this heat.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) seems to have acceded to a court order and shut down the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) database for use as a voter registration list citizenship checker. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

JD Vance says his faith makes him averse to “low wage foreigners”

Everyone knows that Jesus hated the poors. Also, minorities. Blech. Not to mention those retched war widows. Again, this is all common knowledge if you’re an actual believer.

Just like Jesus Christ, famous hater of the poor
