"Government by organized money is just as dangerous as Government by organized mob." —FDR, 1936

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Bring on the Progressives. Boot out the establishment. I am so sick of them.

Guests sipping drinks and eating at Trump’s Palm Beach resort while he tells states to take away food stamps

I want the United States government to ensure that every American has food to eat, a place to live, a safe neighborhood, transportation to move around & work, clean water to drink, free health care & free education. Don’t care what label you give that. That’s what I want my taxes to pay for.

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

ICE brutalizing CITIZENS — did ya vote for this, MAGA? “Witnesses say ICE slammed on their brakes causing the red car to resend them — which is the pretense used by ICE to brutalize citizens”

Here’s a disturbing video from Evanston of a federal agent hitting a man on the ground as people yell that he can’t breathe.

The problem with gleefully backing liars to “own the libs” is that you know they’re lying to you too.

The reason 42 million Americans are on SNAP is because employers aren’t paying living wages.

The leader of the free world.

We also need the DNC to do their GD job and vet these double agents like Sinena, Fetterman an Manchin. There's no reason they should have been able to run as Democrats. How many times have we been screwed over by wolves in Blue clothing?

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024. Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay. The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year. Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M See the problem?

Beware the bipartisan 'hero'. In times of rising authoritarianism, they are a seductive ruse.

Not being even vaguely sarcastic: At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

In South Carolina, more than 150 unvaccinated schoolkids are under quarantine after being exposed to measles. Across the U.S., total case counts could be even higher than the official number. n.pr/4obbfnK

Happy National Coming Out Day! I dream of a world where our LGBTQ brothers and sisters do not have to “come out”, but until we arrive at that day, know how many of us are your allies. We love, support, and encourage you to be your best most authentic selves. You make us all better. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Chicago priest Father Michael Pfleger: "The state of emergency is in AMERICA, not Chicago. It's birthed from this president and his admin's reign of terror." ( ht: @mikenellis.bsky.social )

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s. This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

The way Argentina finessed American taxpayers should be studied The U.S. gave Argentina $20 million to save their free-falling economy and Argentina turned around and cut tariffs for soybean exports to zero. Then they sold their soybeans to China shutting out American soybean farmers

The unsung heroes of America: lifelong agency workers at Social Security, Medicare, VA and so many other agencies who are staying there to ensure the American people are taken care of. They didn’t have to stay. They are being worked into the ground. Thank you with all of my heart.🙏

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.

Today as Los Angelenos boycott Home Depot and other major brands who have allowed ICE into their businesses… Fast food workers are STRIKING to demand that bosses sign a pledge to protect workers from workplace raids. SPREAD WORD!! #FastFoodFairWork #UnionsForAll

Same guy.

I do seem to remember that, yeah.

Statement by John Cleese regarding Trump ===============================

He seems so innocent.

WE MUST PUSH BACK.

The New York Times might want to read up on when it's appropriate to use anonymous sources, according to (checks notes) The New York Times, from an article dated 6/11/25.

Washington, D.C., has a population roughly equivalent to Alaska's. And it has zero senators. If D.C. had senators, the GOP megablil bill would have failed today. Instead, Murkowski got carve-outs and money for Alaska, and then voted to subject DC to the bill

You can’t make this stuff up

Reminder that seven Democratic senators voted to confirm Kristi Noem and six Dem senators declined to vote either way. She was confirmed, 59-34. The good faith experiment is clearly over, and we need the Democratic senators who didn't stand against her nomination to be loud as hell right now.

This Anti-Immigrant Bill Passed the House w/ 8 Dems Voting for it & 14 Dems Not Voting 8 Dems who voted Yay: Henry Cuellar (TX-28) Donald G. Davis (NC-05) Laura Gillen (NY-04) Marie Gluesenkamp-Perez (WA-03) Josh Harder (CA-09) Marcy Kaptur (OH-09) Kristen McDonald-Rivet (MI-08) Tom Suozzi (NY-03)

Reminding people again of what kind of books Tapper writes and endorses ...

Russ Vought says that Trump has the power to fire hundreds of thousands of civil servants. As a political appointee, he said Biden lacked the authority to fire him

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 63 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

THESE are the main brands that buy from El SLAVEador. Actual prison labor makes textiles. Is that what Hanes, Fruit of the Loom, Gildan and Bali are buying? And selling US, Actual slave labor undies? THOSE companies can stop this. Let them know.

“No Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State" - Article I, Section 9, U.S. Constitution

A Friendly Reminder….😊💙

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything, Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT. ~ All of Us
